HER WAY PROGRAM HISTORY
In November 2017, Christina Paul, along with 13 other female financial advisors at Morgan Stanley's 522 5th Avenue office, created and hosted Morgan Stanley's first-ever HER Day. The goal of the event was to create an immersive experience to explore themes of health and wellness, personal and professional development, wealth, and philanthropy in a storytelling format, in sessions coined HER Talks. Featured speakers for the event included Gloria Steinem, a founder of Ms Magazine and the modern women's movement, Bobbi Brown, lifestyle and beauty entrepreneur, and Shelley O'Connor, Co-Head of Morgan Stanley Wealth Management.
The event reached over 1,000 women – 100 invitees in the room and others through a nationwide webcast. To build on the momentum of HER Day, HER Way was launched in 2018.
HER Way's mission is simple: ENGAGE, EMBRACE and EMPOWER women to live their best financial and personal lives. We do this by curating content and hosting regular events featuring dynamic speakers taking about the financial and personal issues that are important to women.
