Download my free Well-Being Checklist and get 25 actionable steps to help you thrive in this next chapter of life. - https://bit.ly/43XCD0m Most of us were raised to let someone else handle the money, and then one day we have to figure it out ourselves, usually with no training and a lot of fear. Debra Morrison spent 42 years as a financial planner, and her big message is simple: money is just a tool, and you are absolutely capable of using it. She and Dr. Corinne Auman talk through the stuff that quietly costs women over a lifetime, like the pink tax, the pay gap, and stepping away from work to caregive. Debra is also a grief coach, so she shares smart advice on not making big money decisions while you are still in the fog of loss. The best part is her reminder that it is never too late to start, and the next right step is always something you can do this week.
