Women's Way's definition of wealth: When wealth is accumulated, we live and retire with greater dignity, freedom and peace of mind. Our communities are prosperous, resilient, and vibrant. Future generations have the freedom to dream big, and become all they truly can be and we are healthy and know that our family networks and communities are healthy, spiritually whole and contributing.
