Off the Fence with Karen Covy: Mastering Decision Making, Divorce & More

What No One Tells You About Divorce and Your Money


Listen Later

What if everything you think you know about divorce and your money is keeping you trapped in financial anxiety? Phil Telpner, a financial advisor, former hedge fund manager, and president of Breakout Private Wealth, reveals why even women with substantial assets find themselves paralyzed by money decisions during and after their divorce. He also reveals the simple system he created that will turn that around.

Phil breaks down the most common questions women face post-divorce: “Can I?”, “How much?”, and “What if?”. He also reveals how you can turn your answers to these questions into the foundation of a strong financial plan. 

Phil also unpacks the hidden landmines that can derail your financial future after divorce, including maintenance changes due to job loss, and the tax implications that come with switching your filing status post-divorce. 

Phil challenges conventional financial wisdom and offers practical strategies for maximizing your wealth and minimizing your financial risks after your divorce. His insights offer a lifeline for women who want to build financial security while modeling financial strength for their children. 

Throughout this episode, Phil’s message is clear: Action eliminates anxiety. You don’t need to have every financial issue figured out from the start. You just need to take your next best step.
