    REPLAY: Learn About The Gender Pay Gap

    REPLAY: Learn About The Gender Pay Gap

    This episode originally aired on March 1, 2023.

    The gender pay gap is a calculation that reflects the fact that, on average, women are paid less than men. In 2020, that was 83 cents to every dollar. Women of Color, per usual, get an even smaller piece of the pie. Black women were paid 64%, and Hispanic women (of any race) were paid 57% of what white non-Hispanic men were paid (according to a study conducted by the Women’s Bureau in tandem with the U.S. Census Bureau).

    What’s worse is that the majority of the gap between men and women’s wages cannot be explained through measurable differences!

    This isn't just about numbers and policies; it's about the voices that often go unheard. Jessica and Brandon are shining a spotlight on the double-edged sword faced by women of color, mothers, and those re-entering the workforce.

    Tune in as they dissect the paradoxical undervaluing of women in the workforce, even when they bring identical qualifications and experience to the table.

    42: One Million Dollar Debt Payoff to Financial Freedom: Naseema McElroy's Wealth-Building Journey

    42: One Million Dollar Debt Payoff to Financial Freedom: Naseema McElroy's Wealth-Building Journey

    Naseema McElroy is a published author and the founder of Financially Intentional, a platform about personal finance and living life intentionally.

    In this episode, she speaks to Jessica and Brandon about how taking control of her finances has enabled her to overcome bankruptcy, divorce, and break the cycle of living paycheck to paycheck. She shares her lessons along her path to help others benefit from the freedoms of financial independence.

    Outside of encouraging people to get their financial act together, Naseema is a mother, and a Labor & Delivery Nurse. Though making six figures for years, she struggled with money. Finally realizing she couldn't out-earn her financial ignorance, she knew she had to make some changes.  By shifting her mindset around money, being consistent and intentional, she has paid off $1 million in debt and grew a six figure net worth in three years without living in deprivation.

    This episode is a treasure trove of real-life wisdom on nurturing financial literacy within the family. She draws from her own upbringing and the generational changes in wealth-building to highlight the delicate balance of teaching children the value of money while also preserving the joys of their childhood. Her profound insights into the challenges and victories of single parenting, coupled with her remarkable comeback story from bankruptcy, form a narrative that is as educational as it is uplifting.

    Tune in for a heartfelt account that promises to empower you with the strategies and mindset to craft a life of intention, care, and financial independence.
