Super Woman Wealth: How to Become Your Own Financial Hero

by Regina McCann Hess

Overview

Women face unique challenges when it comes to managing finances.

Society tells us we should be caregivers who put everyone in our families before ourselves, including financially. Data shows women tend to live longer than men, meaning we need more money during retirement, but we tend to earn and save less because of our role in child rearing and caring for older family members. As a result, many women feel overwhelmed by financial planning and avoid the conversation altogether.

Super Woman Wealth is a guide to empower professional women to take an active role in their finances. It addresses women's unique relationships with money and offers practical advice on becoming more comfortable with financial planning and management. Ladies, it's time to learn how to nurture our money, protect our wealth, and take control of our financial future.
