046: A Man is Not a Financial Plan (Repost)
Through divorce, Sheryl Hickerson learned the hard way that a man is not a financial plan. After 25 years of marriage, and standing outside a Michael's Craft store, with her two grandson's hands in her own, her husband called to tell her the big news, "I don't want to be married to you anymore."
Sheryl is the founder of Females & Finance, a 3000-strong private membership dedicated to fostering recruitment, training, and advancement of women in financial services and financial technology roles.
Today, Sheryl joins the podcast to share what she's learned from her 30+ years in the financial services industry - including time spent working with other women who experience sudden divorce late in life, and how she's created a safe harbor to share their stories and give them permission to be who THEY want to be "when they grow up (a.k.a. NOW)!"
