The New Roundtable

Money Talks: Know It, Own It, Grow It
A three-part Financial Empowerment Series for Women Lawyers!

DWLA, in partnership with The Podium and The New Roundtable, is proud to present Money Talks — an engaging series designed to help women lawyers understand, embrace, and grow their financial power.

1. Know It — Understand your value (whether to your firm, company, or the government) and the key metrics that define it.
2. Own It — Build the career you want by owning your worth and aligning it with the life you want to live.
3. Grow It — Demystify financial planning and set yourself up for a successful future.

Learn your value. Own your worth. Grow your future.

🗓 When: Three consecutive Wednesday evenings — September 10, 17 & 24
📍 Where: Each event has a separate location – see registration page for details

A special thank you to our partners and event sponsors, Fisher Phillips and Paul Hastings for helping us provide this opportunity to equip women lawyers with the tools to advance their careers and financial confidence.

NEW Ride: NEW members Juanita DeLoach and Tracie Bedeaux were up and out early, making the most of a beautiful morning with a fantastic ride—two laps around White Rock Lake! They kept their enthusiasm and powered through, then headed for a quick bite and debrief. Juanita and Tracie will reconnect for the Dallas Bike Ride in May. Be on the lookout for more NEW Fit outings!

On International Women’s Day, The NEW Roundtable, Inc. supported Kandace Walter, producer of the documentary “A Law Unto Themselves.” The film honored trailblazing women like Rhonda Hunter, DeMetris Sampson, Hon. Carolyn Wright-Sanders, Hon. Sarah T. Hughes, Louise Raggio and others. Their stories serve as powerful reminders of the resilience, brilliance, and leadership of women in the legal profession.

The screening brought together a strong showing of NEW Roundtable members including Juanita DeLoach, PhD, JD, Amber Hamilton Gregg, and Tiffany Johnson, who served on the documentary committee, and Crystal Moore-Mitchell, LaCrecia Perkins, KoiEles Lomas, Tasheena Byrd, Britney E. Harrison, Jasmine M. Tobias, and Ashley Jones Wright, all gathered to celebrate these legal trailblazers and continue the mission of empowering, impacting and influencing women in law.
