Tomorrow morning, before you touch your phone, ask yourself: โ€œWhat do I want to allow into my mind first?โ€ ๐ŸŒฟ

If the first voices you hear every morning belong to strangers on television, social media, or the internet, youโ€™re essentially giving someone else permission to set the emotional temperature of your day. Why would we surrender that power?

Hereโ€™s the first question I want you to consider: What am I allowing into my life thatโ€™s creating more uncertainty, rather than helping me respond intelligently to it?

Thatโ€™s where radical responsibility begins. ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿ’ฌ Whatโ€™s the first thing you let into your mind each morning?

Excited to be featured in for the launch of Lynne McTaggartโ€™s new book, God Notes! ๐ŸŽ‰

So happy to be sharing my message with the world and be included with the incredible

Thank you for making this collaboration happen.

Every contributor answered the same question. How do you lead and grow a business from alignment instead of burnout?

Hereโ€™s my answer, plain and simple.
When what I intend, where I put my energy, and what I actually do all line up, I lead from purpose. And purpose attracts the right women. Then we compound together. Just like money does. ๐Ÿ’ฐ

Women 50+ donโ€™t need to shout over the noise. We need to be clear.

Iโ€™ve watched this happen financially for decades. ๐ŸŒฟ

๐Ÿ“‰ She doesnโ€™t want to know whether she has enough money to retire, so she never calculates it. Does that make her retirement safer? Of course not.

๐Ÿ’ต Sheโ€™s afraid of investing, so she leaves too much money sitting in cash for years. Did avoiding market risk eliminate the risk? Nope. She may have simply exchanged one risk for another. Her principal stayed intact, but purchasing power risk ran rogue.

๐Ÿค She doesnโ€™t understand her investments, and instead of asking questions, she leaves everything untouched because she doesnโ€™t want to appear foolish.

Women, not knowing what you own doesnโ€™t make the investment less complicated. And ignoring a financial problem or angst doesnโ€™t freeze it in place. ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿ’ฌ Which of these have you caught yourself doing? Be honest, no judgment here.

Stop waiting for the world to calm down.

In this solo episode, I share what 47 years of working with women and their money has taught me about agency. Itโ€™s not about predicting the future. Itโ€™s about knowing how you will respond no matter what happens.

Why the moment you most want to feel safe may be the worst moment to decide anything. Why โ€œIโ€™m fineโ€ can be two of the most expensive words a woman says. And why procrastination is never free.

My challenge to you this week takes 24 hours: pick one thing youโ€™ve been postponing and move it into action. Action produces information, information produces clarity, clarity gives you choices, and choices restore agency.

โ€œHow long should grief last?โ€ Wow, what a loaded question. ๐ŸŒฟ

If weโ€™re asking that of ourselves, of God, of the universe, as the survivor and chief mourner, I get it. Weโ€™re trying to get a foothold on when some of this pain will start to lessen. I appreciate that.

I also appreciate that a qualified grief coach can offer strategies, tips, and tools to help accelerate the grief recovery process. As a certified grief coach, Iโ€™m one of many, and we can help lessen the pain and move into the next chapter of a survivorโ€™s life without abandoning the history. That part is really important.

So thereโ€™s no one answer to how long grief will last. And thatโ€™s okay. ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿ’ฌ What has helped you most while moving through grief?

A lot of us were taught that money is something you should be able to figure out alone, and that asking for help means youโ€™re behind. But look closely at the women and families who built wealth that lasted. Very few of them did it alone. Someone showed them how the pieces fit together.

Needing that isnโ€™t a weakness. Itโ€™s how wealth actually gets built.

Vidya called it a phenomenal realization and said she feels very empowered. Thatโ€™s what happens when the dots finally connect.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Where in your financial life do you wish someone would just connect the dots for you? Tell me below.

Who can you call at 2 oโ€™clock in the morning? ๐ŸŒฟ

Take a moment and think about your circle. Have you intentionally chosen the people in it, or are they just the people who happen to be there?

Who do you trust? Who challenges you? Who makes you laugh? Who notices when you disappear? And for whom are you that person?

Hereโ€™s something Iโ€™d like you to do. Think of one person you havenโ€™t spoken with in way too long. Not someone youโ€™re obligated to call. Someone whose voice would make you smile.

Then call her. Donโ€™t text. Call. Hear her voice, and let her hear yours. ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿ’ฌ Who came to mind first? Go ahead and call her today.

Often when people divorce, experience a loss, or have or adopt more children, they never update their beneficiary forms. And that is very serious. ๐Ÿ“‹

The beneficiary form on your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), life insurance policy, or annuity supersedes any language in your will. So many people think, โ€œI changed my will, Iโ€™m good.โ€ Youโ€™re not good if there are annuities and 401(k)s at your current job, and maybe a previous job, still hanging out there with an outdated beneficiary form.

Hereโ€™s what to do:

โœ… Name your new partner if you have one
โœ… Name someone else if you donโ€™t, because you donโ€™t want it going to your ex
โœ… Name a charity if that fits your wishes
โœ… Add your children if youโ€™ve had or adopted more

Do not leave this to chance. ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿ’ฌ Whenโ€™s the last time you checked the beneficiaries on every account, including old employer plans?

Hereโ€™s what I really want women to understand. Loneliness and social isolation donโ€™t necessarily stay in our emotional lives. They can seed themselves in our physical bodies. ๐ŸŒฟ

The US Surgeon Generalโ€™s landmark advisory on social connection reported that lacking social connection can increase the risk of premature death to a degree comparable to smoking up to 15 ci******es a day. Thatโ€™s almost a full pack.

To be clear, loneliness and smoking donโ€™t damage us through identical biological mechanisms. The comparison is about their association with premature mortality.

Connection isnโ€™t a luxury. Itโ€™s part of staying well. ๐Ÿ’›
