Biography
My milestones and achievements are as a result of every decision I made in the past. Those decisions are the reason I can now live the life of my dreams. I would like to share that journey with other women who would like to learn and start creating their best lives. For the past ten years, I have been able to inspire thousands of professional women globally through my talks and books. And my dream is to continue to create a sustainable community of female traders and investors. While some have said that I was lucky in my journey, I have had to work hard, make sacrifices, and invest a lot of time and money, to get to where I am today.
I was born in Peru and grew up in a family surrounded by love and respect, in the beautiful city of Trujillo, in the North of Peru. We were always close, and I remember having lots of fun. My father is a doctor and, my mother is an entrepreneur. As a teenager, I was expected to be curious and innovative. Because innovation is the key ingredient in business, particularly in a world that is changing so fast.
I had an entrepreneurial spirit from a very young age. I taught trigonometry to fellow students while still in school as my first job and at the age of 15, I sold face creams from the popular brand Avon to my friends and saved the money from my cream sales and traveled to Madrid at the age of 19 years to discover the world after quitting the law university in Peru.
Arriving in Holland in 1994 I learned Dutch, studied bookkeeping and I got a job working for a major international trading corporation in Amsterdam’s financial sector, which allowed me to acquire over 15 years of experience.
This is where I developed an interest in trading and I decided to become a forex trader. I discovered that trading and investing could give me extra income and live my life by my own rules. I wanted to become an expert by learning from the most successful mentors in trading and 2017 was the year that I became one of the ‘most exceptional female students’ as I learned about the financial markets in my journey to become a certified forex trader.
As a requirement to receive my certificate, I came up with a trading strategy that gave great returns on investment. My mentor also presented my work in one of the biggest FOREX events for traders and investors in Madrid. Finally, I received my certificate as a forex trader from the University of Juan Carlos of Madrid. I love this skill and keep learning as much as I can.
While wrapping up my corporate job, I also wrote my book “Trading for Success: 8 Secrets Why Women Are Best Forex Traders.” During this part of my journey I found the personal development field and began to see the world from another perspective.
This is why I then decided to become independent and I dedicated myself 100% to my business and my personal development. It was the most difficult decision of my professional career, but without any doubt, the best.
I became the national director of the international empowerment woman platform in the Netherlands and had the opportunity to create a community of female entrepreneurs in the country. I have had the privilege of being interviewed in international magazines such as Global Woman and Start People, and my latest feature in Forbes highlights my mission to spread the word about financial empowerment.
I’ve been interviewed about women and financial markets on RTL4, the National Dutch television. I have spoken about financial awareness for women in more than 10 countries through the Global Woman platform and have been selected as 1 out of 10 finalists for TEDxAmsterdam Women.
My vision was building and leading a successful women’s community in Holland, and I’ve received recognition for it. Awards include Best Director and UK Inspirations Award receiving the Inspirational Business Woman Award.
Currently, I am involved in several projects: the Amsterdam Abundance Summit, as well as serving as the founder of Trading for Women Education and my new platform, She Prospers Circle, alongside speaking engagements.

For my efforts at creating a consistent and supportive Global Woman Community in the Netherlands, I was honored with a “Director of the Year” Global Woman Award In 2019.
Currently I am involved in several projects: The Global Woman Book Project with a documentary film broadcasted by the PBS in America; Director of the Global Woman Club Amsterdam; Founder of Trading for Women Education (My blog and upcoming training courses in Trading specifically for women); Giovana Vega (my personal brand and my speaking gigs).

I must say that the Women in Tech event in Amsterdam wasn’t such a “must attend” but I met a few very inspirational ladies and the highlight was Giovana. I was in the audience while she gave her speech related to her journey and how today she is empowering, encouraging, motivating, and supporting women across the Globe. I felt very much connected to her as many points of her speech were so close to my personal journey.
She felt very real and authentic and I am quite sure that listening to her was one of the best 30 minutes investments for all of us listening. Giovana doesn’t try to impress but transmits direct, at-the-point messages; and some of them touch your emotion and state of well-being immediately because you feel understood and “not alone”. I am truly grateful to have met her and definitely will go to further speeches when my schedule allows it. Thank you! for making my day Giovana and for being such an inspiration for all women entrepreneurs out there!

It has been a year ago that I attended a Trading Workshop from Giovana. I have always wanted to learn Trading but was always scared of it and of course because of all the stories that I have heard all my life…it’s only for rich people.
This is only for people. However after a long time of thinking this opportunity came knocking at my door so I took the chance with both hands. A whole new world opened up for me and yes it was difficult in the beginning but it ain’t as difficult like I thought it would be. Yes, everybody can do this!
Giovana explains it so well. She has a lot of patience, and with me it’s a bit needed with all my questions that I have. She is really a great teacher. She wants you to succeed and support you so you can work on your own financial freedom future without relying on anybody. She also empowers women to take matters into their own hands so they don’t have to depend on anybody to help them financially.

It was a great pleasure to meet Giovana during her presentation about Forex Trading. She didn’t present herself as a tough businesswoman who promised us the moon and is talking mainly about her own achievements.
She presented herself as a sincere woman with solid inner strength. Lovely.
With integrity, she shared in easy words some of her knowledge and at the same time she checked us, her audiance, if we could understand what she was telling. And at last, she took the time to answer our questions. Her presentation showed me her trustworthiness in who she is as a human being and in her expertise.
Thank you so much! strength strength

During the European Women in Technology 2019 Conference, I had the opportunity to listen to Giovana in a speech titled “Making your Mark as a Female Founder” and I hadn’t felt so empowered in such a long time. Giovana is a really brave woman who was able to inspire us with her impressive successful story. Her call for us to become more self-confident, understanding that most of the times ourselves are the only bottle neck which block us from squeezing our own potential and boost our professional profiles was for me one of the keys of her speech.
It was also great to have the opportunity to speak with her after the presentation and get some advice about our concerns. Disruptive and driven women like her with such a good mindset and big heart is what I think makes the difference in a world as competitive as we live in.

It was a pleasure for me to read her book “Trading for Success”. It contains concrete practical knowledge, basic definitions in the field of trading and investing, and some pieces of advice from other great trading women. There is also a detailed description of investor psychology and an explanation of how to discover your investor personality, and why women are better traders and investors than men, all based on research.

Every Woman should have her book “Trading for Success” in her hands! The book contains GOLDEN information and is well-written. I love the full-color diagrams in the book that accompany her knowledge. A pleasure to read. Very useful, practical, and easy to understand.
I used to think Forex was a mystery, now after reading her book, I have so much more confidence, and I am very comfortable setting up my portfolio. I am a different Woman after reading this book.
I can’t thank you enough Giovana, for opening my eyes to a new sector.

I must admit that Giovana opened my eyes during her masterclass on protecting yourself from financial uncertainties. Even though I had already done some reading on financial instability and understood what is going on, Giovana taught me more.
Even someone with no knowledge about financial issues can understand what is going on in the financial system right now because of the way how she presents the information.
If you are worried and unsure of what to do, I must warn you. I do believe is worthwhile to listen to Giovana’s masterclass and begin your financial protection.
Agnes Mott
Consciousness Expert & Mentor, Netherlands
Giovana’s lecture, “How to Protect Yourself from Uncertain Times,” is something I can’t stress enough. Giovana conveyed an abundance of knowledge in just two hours masterclass online, and it has made a significant difference in my capacity to face uncertainty with confidence. Her knowledge of the issue was clear as she offered useful tips and techniques that may be used in many different facets of daily life.
Because of Giovana’s engaging and interactive teaching style, participants felt at ease asking questions and sharing personal experiences. I left the masterclass feeling confident and prepared to handle any difficulties that may come up.

Financial workshop with Giovana Vega – an absolute MUST for any woman who wants to get an understanding of the financial world
I recently attended the “Uncertain Financial Times” workshop with the fabulous Giovanna Vega. Let me tell you, it was an eye-opening experience that left me feeling empowered and informed about the world of finance.
Giovana’s expertise in the financial industry was evident from the moment the workshop began. She presented complex concepts with ease, making them understandable to even the most financially illiterate person in the room. During the workshop, Giovanna taught us how the financial markets operate, what to look out for, and why planning for the future is so important. She provided practical tips on how to create a solid financial plan, how to invest wisely, and how to protect oneself from potential economic downturns. Her insights were invaluable, and I left the workshop feeling more confident about my financial future.
Overall, I highly recommend Giovanna Vega to anyone who wants to gain a better understanding of the financial world. Her ability to make complex concepts understandable is a rare gift, and her expertise in the field is unparalleled. If you’re looking to make informed decisions about your financial future, attending one of Giovana’s workshops is an absolute must.
Thank you, Giovanna, for sharing your knowledge with us and empowering us to take control of our financial lives!

I learned how and why the global economy is fundamentally changing from Giovana, a digital trade expert, during one of her masterclass. She provides excellent insight into the dynamics of the financial market and makes the underlying factors and outcomes of a financial recession obvious.
Highly beneficial My realization of the significance of passive income generation.
This prior knowledge is essential to understanding how you handle your own finances and invest your money in various assets. And a note of wisdom about how every recession begins. There is no gold or silver backing for paper money, which is a free-floating currency.
This session was made special by Giovana’s expertise and passion for empowering people, which gave me the self-assurance to handle any problems that might come my way. I highly recommend taking this masterclass to anyone looking to support their resilience and keep themselves in unpredictable situations.
Opening my eyes! Thank you so much, Giovana.

So grateful for Giovana Vega’s Masterclass “Protect Yourself from Financial Uncertainty”. Professional and fact-based she certainly opened my eyes to the present reality. In a very down-to-earth way and with much heart, she started with the history of our current banking system (which was certainly new to me) and went into the new reality and what we could do to protect ourselves.
Giovana is on a mission to educate women in an area we are seriously lacking in, financial wisdom, and sees it as her duty to share her wisdom and experience as top financial in order to enable others better protect themselves and those they love.
A mixture of facts, recommendations, and tips, the two hours flew by leaving me feeling it was time to stop being naive and actually use her information and take action. Thank you, Giovana, for caring.
Julie Kennedy
Founder & CEO of The Kennedy Connection, Netherlands
Giovana Vega’s masterclass on Financial Protection was worth my time. I walked away more confident about my knowledge of the financial systems and with actionable steps that are already saving me money.
Giovana expertly covered many relevant topics: the basics behind the Financial System, the current state of the economy, digital banking, future outlook, and ways to spend and invest smartly. She was thorough, engaging, and clear in providing information, and I found it easy to follow and understand her – the two hours flew by!
Thank you, Giovana, for offering such an insightful and useful session!

The information Giovana gave during the Masterclass was incredibly valuable. A lot of background inside and therefore very interesting to know what it is that is going n in the market.
Sometimes when it is not your daily business this subject can be difficult to understand but Giovana made it very understandable and therefore I could highly recommend this Masterclass.
I know a lot more now about the financial markets and what to expect.
