We're talking about how societal stuff, economic realities, and even our own choices can make it harder for women to save for the future. On this week's podcast, we're diving headfirst into this mess, figuring out why it's so tough for women to save and what we can actually do about it.

This week, we're diving into the financial challenges women face and offering practical strategies to overcome them, including:

• The cold, hard truth about women's savings: We're talking stats, the gender pay gap (ugh), how education (and student loans, double ugh), and the lack of paid parental leave all play a role.
• Why community matters: We'll discuss the power of talking about money with other women (no judgment here!).
• Real solutions to help women build financial security like how to get paid what you deserve and how to make your money work for you: Quick tips on negotiating salary and benefits and high-yield savings accounts and other smart money moves (because you're worth it!).
