What if your greatest financial breakthrough came after your greatest heartbreak? In this empowering episode of Her Second Stage, Hilda Lunderstedt sits down with Tulinh Tran, a former social worker turned intuitive investing mentor, to explore how women can turn emotional pain into financial power. After losing her husband and being left with three children, no credit, and only $2,000 to her name, Tulinh made the bold decision to sell her wedding ring and reenter the market as an investor—just before the 2020 lockdown boom. Today, she mentors women across the world on how to build wealth through clarity, confidence, and feminine intuition. This conversation shatters the myth that investing is for men or for the young—and instead shows how women over 45, especially those in their second stage of life, have unique emotional intelligence and pattern recognition that make them ideal investors. You’ll discover the power of intuitive investing, the risk factors women naturally avoid, and why being risk-aware doesn’t mean playing small—it means building smarter, longer-lasting portfolios. This episode also explores the impact of financial literacy on feminine freedom, how the “Trad Wife” trend may empower or endanger women without financial sovereignty, and why every woman—regardless of age, experience, or background—should build an investor profile now. Whether you’re a healer, a stay-at-home parent, or a high-level executive facing a reset, this episode offers inspiration, practical frameworks, and real stories of women creating legacy wealth from the inside out.

You’ll learn:

• How Tulinh turned a $2K investment into a six-figure financial comeback.
• Why intuitive investing is a feminine superpower rooted in lived experience. What “money goggles” are and how to train your mind to spot opportunities everywhere.
• Why time horizon, risk tolerance, and personal passion are the keys to building the right investment strategy.
• How unlearning “grind culture” helps women shift from working for money to letting money work for them.
• What the Trad Wife movement reveals about hidden economic risk for women who opt out of the workplace.
• The mindset that turns fear into fuel—and how even your life pain can become part of your wealth story.

Tulinh also shares her favorite investing wins, like Apple in 2001, Amazon in 1997, and Celsius in 2020—all spotted through the lens of lived experience and pattern observation, not Wall Street analytics. If you’ve ever thought, “it’s too late for me,” this episode is your call to rise. Your money mindset isn’t just about finances—it’s your key to self-trust, legacy, and freedom in your second stage of life.
