- Serious women, across industries, with the same stakes
- Expert-led insights you can actually use — tested, grounded, specific
- Candid conversations about money that don't happen anywhere else

The Moment Women Knew This Was Different




CFA Charterholder
Former CNBC & BNN anchor
Meet Saijal Patel, Founder & CEO, Saij Elle
25+ Years in Finance.
One Unwavering Mission.
In working with more than 20,000 women — through masterclasses, live events, and corporate workshops — I kept seeing the same thing. Accomplished career women with meaningful salaries and no structured financial plan to show for it.
Not because they were not capable. Because no one had ever given them a rigorous, holistic framework designed for where they are and where they wanted to go.
Saijal Patel is a CFA Charterholder, award-winning business journalist, and former anchor for CNBC Asia and BNN Bloomberg — with 25+ years of financial expertise across North America and Asia.

Everything You Need to Know About SMCircle
What makes this community different?
Most communities stay in either the money lane or the leadership lane. We live at the intersection — because financial fluency impacts every part of your life, personally and professionally. This space didn’t exist until now.
