a joy-based approach to personal finance honoring the core values of simplicity,
freedom, and abundance.

FEET and GET FINANCIALLY NAKED, serves as Financial Fellow at Wellesley
College, and her MoneyZen writings appear in Forbes and The Huffington Post.

featured in many media outlets including CNN, CNBC, PBS, The Wall Street
Journal, Real Simple, and MORE.
She sits on the National Board of the Girl Scouts of the USA and on the Advisory

Prior to setting up her own firm, Manisha spent 15 years working as an analyst,
portfolio manager and client relations executive at SG Warburg, Atalanta/Sosnoff
