Description:
The world has changed, but many women's attitudes toward finance remains stuck in the patriarchal past. It's very important for women, regardless of their marital status — single, divorced, widowed or married — to take a much more active role in their financial lives.
Sarah Frieberg, Financial advisor with Principal Financial Group, realizes that financial wellness means different things to women and men. The increasing availability of education, coupled with shifting roles in the home for women, is not only changing women's lives but also reworking attitudes toward gender differences and equality. Traditional gender roles no longer retain much currency in contemporary households. Today more women are pursuing higher education, and female professionals and entrepreneurs are making great strides in business. Women are assuming more responsibility, such as managing careers and education in addition to family life.
We all may be planners, but Sarah asks the question – are your personal and business finances on course? By taking a more active role, we can gain more clarity, confidence and control of our lives. Empower yourself, and take control of your financial health with this seminar on financial planning. Questions encouraged!
About Sarah Frieberg:
