​Why The Woman CFO Exists

.​​

The Woman CFO was created from the belief that business decisions don't stop at the business.

 

Every decision influences how money is earned, how resources are used, what opportunities become possible, and how the business fits into the life of the person building it.

​

Too often, those decisions are treated as separate conversations. Strategy is discussed independently from finances, and growth is pursued without fully considering its impact on time, capacity, or long-term sustainability.

 

As a result, businesses become more difficult to evaluate because each new decision influences the next.

How The Woman CFO Thinks

.

The Woman CFO approaches business through a different lens: Every business decision is also a money decision and a life decision.

​

That philosophy shapes every conversation, every advisory engagement, every article, and every tool.

 

Rather than looking at decisions in isolation, The Woman CFO helps women understand what's happening, why it matters, what tradeoffs exist, and how today's decisions influence tomorrow's business.

​

The goal is to build a business that is financially grounded, strategically aligned, and capable of supporting the life it was created to serve.

Meet the Founder

​​​

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Woman CFO was founded by Davina Mignon, MBA in Finance and Certified Financial Education Instructor (CFEI®).

 

After more than a decade in corporate finance, Davina saw that the strongest business decisions were never made in isolation. Financial performance, operations, strategy, growth, and investment decisions were evaluated together because each decision influenced the next.

​

As she began working with women building businesses, she noticed a different pattern: smart, capable business owners were making thoughtful decisions, but those decisions were often approached one at a time.

Pricing, hiring, growth, financial management, and operations were treated as separate challenges rather than interconnected parts of the same business.

​​​​

​​That observation became the foundation of The Woman CFO.

 

Today, The Woman CFO is a strategic education and advisory firm that helps women build, grow, and manage businesses.

 

Guided by the belief that every business decision is also a money decision and a life decision, The Woman CFO helps women develop the judgment, confidence, and practical skills to build businesses that are financially grounded, strategically aligned, and designed to support the lives they want to build.

Your business should never be a collection of disconnected decisions.

It should be an intentionally designed system. - The Woman CFO
