About Us
Our Money Mavens Mission
We’re taking the taboo out of talking money. From recent college grads to entrepreneurial retirees, we’re engaging women from all walks of life in holistic, honest financial talk. Our mission is to be a judgement-free community for women to learn, to share, to be inspired — a community that fosters financial empowerment.
As women, we’re unique in the way we think, the burdens we bear and the opportunities we embrace. At Money Mavens, we’re here to help embolden you to make financial decisions that support you, your family, and your dreams for the future.
MEET OUR FOUNDER | Joanna Nash
I’ve been in financial services for a very long time now. When I first started, I was the quietest voice in the room — Not anymore.
As a financial professional, a single mom of a child with special needs & an aging parent with health challenges — I quickly realized, conventional financial wisdom, just wasn’t quite enough.
It was going to take more than just life insurance, a few months of savings and a 401k to implement a financial plan that would truly give me peace of mind.
I knew I couldn’t be alone. As a result, I have made it my purpose in life to help women map out a plan for their financial future — a plan that serves them, their families, and ultimately their legacies.
Welcome to Money Mavens!

MEET OUR MARKETING DIRECTOR | Heather Brame
“I was a teen mother, widow, & college graduate, all before I turned 23.”
I moved to Chattanooga, TN, in 2005 from Memphis, TN. I have spent all these years working on myself and learning to do hard things. I was a teen mother, widow, and college graduate, all before I turned 23. When I graduated with my Nursing degree, I felt unstoppable, like I could do this life thing well. During these years in healthcare, I loved nursing and pursued my bachelor’s and then a master’s in nursing. I took on more responsibilities in the hospital and was finding my niche. Then COVID hit. Anyone in or who has worked in healthcare understands what COVID did to us. I needed a way out.
After months of applying for remote nursing jobs and getting turned down, I had enough. Joanna wanted to know if I knew of someone who could help her with marketing and taking on some of the responsibilities required for a successful practice in the digital age. When I was reading through the list of duties, I knew that it was something that I could do. I leaped, and I have yet to look back. I am grateful for my time serving in the hospital, but I am now serving my community in new ways that allow me some autonomy and creativity. I have always been a supporter of Money Mavens and now, I get to help it grow!
