Why "Reimagined"?
When most people think of “leadership,” they think of leading others by virtue of a position or title. And “legacy” is most often characterized as something you leave behind when you die.
The FEW invites you to reimagine what’s possible when you:
Turn your focus inward and concentrate on leading yourself. It’s analogous to “putting on your own oxygen mask first.”
Recognize that your legacy is defined by what you do today. The more purposeful you are now, the more phenomenal your legacy will be.
The FEW offers you leadership training, coaching, and community support to help transform what’s possible for you into reality.
An expanded awareness will help you evoke the confidence and courage to:
A broader understanding of your multi-generational family context will help you see yourself, others, and circumstances in a different light. New possibilities will begin to emerge. You’ll be able to have the conversations you need to have and make or influence the decisions that need to be made.
You’ll be empowered to assume agency over your relationships when you recognize that you play a role in co-creating them. You’ll go from being reluctant to have difficult conversations to being confident to engage.
Humans react to each other unconsciously and experience this reactivity as automatic physical sensations. You’ll learn to recognize these physical indicators, what triggers them, and and how to respond in challenging situations.
Most other programs you may have tried either focused on women or on family businesses or family wealth. Not many programs are designed specifically to address the unique circumstances of women like you who are also members of an Enterprising Family.
The limited number of such programs that do exist:
Whether you own all, part, or none of the family business or wealth.
Whether you have management responsibilities for family financial assets, or not.
Whether you were born, adopted, or married into the family.
You'll learn the principles, strategies, and tools by applying them to your own unique situation.

Thomasina’s personal passion and professional mission is to help families develop connected and capable leaders. A member of an Enterprising Family, an accomplished lawyer, and philanthropy strategist, Thomasina’s drive to be a resource for families is fueled by her own family’s history.
Her grandparents were wealthy citrus growers who were so prominent that the neighborhood where she grew up is named after them. True to the “shirtsleeves-to-shirtsleeves in three generations” phenomenon whereby 70 to 90 percent of families lose their wealth during generational transitions, her family’s wealth was lost during her mother’s generation. Family relationships were fractured in the process. Thomasina is on a quest to course-correct her family’s trajectory.
Her journey has led her to support other families seeking to beat the odds and sustain enduring legacies of financial and family well-being.
Prior to founding Sankofa Legacy Advisors, Thomasina was the first Family Dynamics Consultant hired by one of the largest private banks in the U.S. She went in-house and played a leadership role in creating a new service offering to help the bank’s ultra-high-net worth clients navigate the complexities of combining family and finances.
Currently, she serves on the Advisory Board of the Purposeful Planning Institute, the Board of SIY Global, and the Advisory Board of Enterprising Women magazine.
