Description

This is episode 1900, friends! Ten years of conversations about our money, our fears, our growth, and the power that comes when we take control of our financial lives.

I can’t think of a better guest to mark this milestone than my longtime friend and former colleague, Tracy Byrnes.

Tracy and I go way back to our early days in broadcast journalism, when we reported from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange and hustled to make our voices heard in a male-dominated industry. These days, Tracy is using her voice and expertise as a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA) to help women, especially those in midlife, regain control of their finances and their futures after divorce.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why so many smart, capable women feel ashamed about not knowing enough about money — and how to change that.
• The biggest financial mistakes women make during and after divorce, from clinging to the family home to rushing big money decisions.
• How to rebuild your financial confidence post-divorce — and why sometimes the best move is to pause, breathe, and rent before you buy.
• And how women can safeguard themselves in marriage — even the happiest ones — by asking the right questions and making sure both partners know where the money is.
