    Raising Financially Savvy Kids In A World of Crypto, Betting Apps, and 'Girl Math'

    Financial literacy isn’t just a problem for young people — it spans every generation and income bracket, and the numbers have only gotten worse over the last decade. So what actually works? This week, Jean sits down with Diana Isern, a 20-year NYC public school educator, Accredited Financial Counselor, and author of the new book Money Talks: An Educator’s Guide to Teaching Financial Empowerment. Diana approaches things differently: instead of lecturing people about what they don’t know, she starts from what families already do well, and builds from there. They dig into: The intergenerational money trauma most of us inherit without even realizing it, and how to break the cycle with your own kids Why 11th grade is the exact right moment for financial literacy to click What Diana actually tells her students when they ask her about crypto, sports betting apps, and “girl math” I'm hosting a free Forever Paycheck book club on November 17th at 7 ET.

    Introducing The Complete Menopause Episode: 8 Experts on Belly Fat, Brain Fog, Sleep and Hormones from The Tamsen Show. Follow the show: The Tamsen Show Menopause and perimenopause can leave you with questions about belly fat, brain fog, sleep problems and whether hormone therapy could help. Your jeans fit differently. You’re losing your train of thought. You’re exhausted, but you can’t sleep. Where do you start when so much feels unfamiliar? For World Menopause Month, Tamsen brings eight leading doctors and researchers together in one episode to help you understand what’s changing and what deserves attention. These are the conversations she wishes she’d heard before she was struggling to read the teleprompter at work, leaving herself notes and wondering why she didn’t feel like herself. You’ll hear from Dr. Sharon Malone, Dr. Lisa Mosconi, Dr. Shelby Harris, Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, Dr. Vonda Wright, Dr. Kelly Casperson, Dr. Avrum Bluming and Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz. Eight experts, different perspectives and answers you can come back to—all in one place. Inside the episode: - Why you can still have periods and be in perimenopause—and why a single hormone blood test may be misleading - Whether menopause brain fog can improve, and why women’s experiences vary - Why more time in bed may not mean better sleep, and how cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) works - The difference between visible belly fat and visceral fat around your organs - Why bone health needs attention earlier than you might think - How menopause can affect sexual anatomy, arousal and orgasm - What to understand about hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and breast cancer risk - How to evaluate menopause supplements and “hormone balance” claims before spending your money You don’t have to remember everything or make eight changes tomorrow.

    Farnoosh Torabi on Why “Healthy” Fear Is Good for Your Money (and Your Life)

    Sixty percent of Americans say they feel scared when they think about the future, and women are more likely than men to feel that way. If your instinct is to push that fear down, breathe through it, or just try to be more fearless, Farnoosh Torabi wants to stop you right there. Because fear, she argues, isn’t the enemy. It’s actually one of the most powerful tools you have, if you know how to listen to it. This week, Jean sits down with Farnoosh Torabi to talk about her book, A Healthy State of Panic: Follow Your Fears to Build Wealth, Crush Your Career, and Win at Life. They dig into: The difference between healthy and unhealthy fear  The live TV snafu that taught Farnoosh to stop performing and just be herself (and what that has to do with your next big meeting or financial conversation) Why your fear of money might actually be ingrained, and what to do about it I'm hosting a free Forever Paycheck book club November 17th at 7 ET!

    The Pink Tax on Everything: Why Women Pay More for a World Built for Men

    Have you ever stopped to think about how nearly every product in your life — the car you drive, the shoes on your feet, the chair you're sitting in right now — was actually designed for men? Because cars were designed for men, women are 73% more likely to be seriously injured in a crash, and 17% more likely to die in one. And it doesn't stop at cars; even your sneakers were likely modeled on a man's foot first. This week, Jean sits down with Karen Reuther — former Global Creative Director at Nike, VP of Creative Direction at Reebok, and now a design lecturer at Harvard — to talk about her new book, Man-Made: How We Designed a World That Leaves Women Out, and How We Can Make It Right.  They dig into: The "headspace gap" — the hidden mental tax women pay navigating cities, commutes, and public spaces built around men How the Stanley Quencher became a case study in designing for women Practical ways to push back on the pink tax with your voice, your vote, and your wallet The Forever Paycheck is officially a New York Times bestseller!

    Dr. Jill Biden on Why Every Woman Needs Her Own Money

    It's no secret that Dr. Jill Biden has been through a lot. She opens her new memoir, View From The East Wing, by telling us about the heartbreak of losing her son Beau to brain cancer at the age of 46. In the wake of that loss, she and her husband almost lost their son Hunter Biden to addiction. And more recently, she has been by former President Joe Biden's side through his diagnosis of an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has metastasized to his bones, though she says they are very optimistic about his most recent scans. Yet in an era where "unprecedented" has been used more times than most of us can stomach, Jill Biden has stayed steady — continuing to teach as a community college English professor even through her husband's presidency, making her the only First Lady in history to hold an outside job while her husband was in office. In this episode, Jean Chatzky sits down with Dr. Jill Biden to talk about money, independence, and resilience. They discuss: How a first marriage that ended in financial panic shaped everything she believes about money Why she and Joe Biden have always kept separate bank accounts, and why she thinks every woman should Her message to women in their 50s and 60s who feel like they've missed their window Learn more about your ad choices.

    Why I Changed My Mind About Annuities After 20 Years

    For almost twenty years, HerMoney CEO Jean Chatzky was an annuity denier. In 2006, when her mother's financial advisor suggested putting some of her mom's money into one, Jean told him, flatly, to forget it. This week, she tells the full story of what changed her mind. Jean walks through the research that convinced her — retirees with annuitized income spend meaningfully more than retirees with similar wealth who don't have it, in some cases twice as much — and unpacks the psychology behind why a paycheck feels safer to spend than drawing down a balance on your own.  Want a signed copy of The Forever Paycheck?
