Today on the HerMoney Podcast, we're bringing you something special — an exclusive preview of one of our brand-new Patreon-only AMA episodes. In this series, Jean sits down one-on-one with real listeners to talk through their biggest financial questions in real time.
In this episode, you’ll meet Donna, a 68-year-old listener who is rebuilding her financial life from scratch after the end of a 30-year marriage, years out of the workforce, and time spent navigating disability. Now she’s back at work full-time — earning nearly double what she made before — and she’s trying to figure out how to use this new income to build the retirement she wants.
Jean and Donna talk through:
What it feels like to step back into the workforce at 68
How to choose between Roth and traditional contributions
How to invest when you feel “behind” on retirement
What to do when advisors tell you your portfolio is “too small.”
And how to finally create a plan after years of tryingYou’ll hear the first half of their conversation here. To listen to the full episode — plus all of our new bonus content — join us on Patreon.
