Freedom, Resilience, Everest | Jane Kanizay

The Financial Independence Show

Jane Kanizay went from financial freedom to divorce to financial freedom again while achieving amazing physical feats along the way.

Jane is an adventurer, educator, activist, speaker, artist, and ​mother of four who successfully climbed Mt. Everest ​with her 19-year-old daughter on May 14th, 2022.

Jane climbs with the message of Teach Us Consent to campaign for ​holistic consent education in the school curriculum and to ​advocate for the prevention of violence against women. This mission helps push her to her physical and mental limits.

High-altitude mountaineering is one of the deadliest sports in the ​world.

It’s also very expensive and hard to imagine being possible for most teachers.

That’s where Jane’s background in real estate shines.

She built a portfolio that is now funding her amazing adventures.

She also gives us an in-depth breakdown of the financial abuse she tries to educate on and advocate against.

Some signs of this abuse from a partner might include:

• Controls access to finances, won’t let you access bank accounts or credit cards
• Expects you to pay for bills, groceries, and other basic necessities but gives you little or no money to cover those costs
• Forbids you from working or deliberately sabotages your ability to get or hold down a job
• Refuses to work or contribute to family expenses
• Takes out loans or accrues debt in your name
• Doesn’t include you in significant investment or banking decisions
• Refuses to pay or evades child support
• Hides assets
• Incurs fines or infringements in your name then expects you to pay them

Jane’s story is so inspirational and we hope that she helps you get out of your comfort zone and achieve the seemingly impossible.
