Women feel more confident about money BUT only 28% act on it


Hello Reader,

I read a report recently with interesting findings about women's financial confidence.

Amidst many statistics showing women's progress and areas where there was still room for improvement, one number stuck out for me:

  • Almost half of the women felt more confident about money, but only 28% felt empowered to take ACTION

Women are smart enough to Google what they want to learn or speak to someone about it.

But what’s stopping them from acting on that knowledge?

The lack of confidence to act on what we know about our finances is a result of years and layers of conditioning about money:

  • Investing is risky, what if we lose it?
  • We need to keep all of it in our savings just in case we need it in an emergency.
  • Someone else knows better about my money than me, better leave it to them to handle it.

This is a classic example of why more information and knowledge isn't going to help if you're not going to take action on it because you're stuck in fear, insecurity, or uncertainty, despite the data.

More information isn’t going to help you take action.

Rewriting your unconscious money stories and beliefs will.

This is what I'll be showing you how to do in my upcoming workshop, 'Financial Confidence for Women' on 4 April 2024.

So you can take action on what you already know to become financially confident and successful.

See you there!

Hi Reader, For years, I thought I only had two choices: Stay in my job for the steady paycheck — but miss out on time with my kids. Or quit to be there for them — and lose financial security my family depends on. Sound familiar? I call this the false choice. Because the truth is, you don’t have to choose between career or kids. Here’s what I did instead: I carved out just 1 focused hour a day in the margins of mom-life. I stopped waiting for the 'perfect time' or 3-hour blocks that never...

Hi Reader, It's August 2025 - the start of my 12-month experiment to lean into and do what scares me but that I know it's the right thing for me to do. Not anyone else, just me. Beginning with sharing about a topic that I used to hide from others, afraid what they would think of me if they found out. This week’s podcast is one of the most personal I’ve recorded. It’s about fear. And how it sneaks into our decisions when we’re building a business and trying to grow into the next version of...

Hi Reader, I used to hide behind quote posts and faceless content. What would my corporate colleagues think if they saw me talking about my side hustle? What if my boss questioned my commitment? What if other moms judged me for 'trying to do it all'? So I stayed invisible. Safe updates only. No personal stories. No mention of my business. But here's what I realized: My fear of judgment was keeping me from helping the working mom scrolling at 11 PM, feeling completely trapped between a job...
