AALP 225 – Women and Money with Jean Chatzky

Ask successful women what they want from their money and they’ll tell you: independence, security, choices, a better world, and way less stress.  These are a few of the many things Jean Chatzky learned while diving into her HerMoney Happy Hour discussions with women around the country. During my conversation with Jean for today’s episode, we’re exploring how talking about money and learning about your relationship with it can help you dramatically improve the quality of your life and your wealth.   A few of the topics we’re discussing include: * Underearning and how to stop patterns of being paid less than you know your work is worth. * Ways to teach your kids about better money management. * How women approach risk taking and the ways it can positively affect the long term value of your portfolio. Whether or not women internalize our childhood experiences with money differently than men. What women are doing with their money to affect positive changes in the world. By listening in you’ll walk away knowing why the time has never been more right for women to take control of their finances and what you can do starting today! **** About Jean’s new book, Women with Money: The Judgment-Free Guide to Creating the Joyful, Less Stressed, Purposeful (and, Yes, Rich) Life You Deserve Through Chatzky’s candid three-part plan–formed through detailed reporting with the world’s top economists, psychiatrists, behaviorists, financial planners, and attorneys, as well as her own two decades of experience in the field–readers will learn to: 1.
