This International Women's Month, we're zooming out and looking at the bigger picture of where women stand financially, what's holding them back, and what each of us can do about it. The numbers are sobering. The World Economic Forum estimates it will take 123 years to close the gender economic gap at the current pace. Women are expected to accumulate just 74% of the wealth men do over a full working lifetime. And yet — when women do invest, research shows they can achieve better returns than men. The gap isn't ability. It's access, knowledge, and confidence. In this episode, we explore: Why financial literacy is the lever — and why the gender gap in investing is one-third a confidence problem, not just a knowledge problem The age-seven finding — research from the University of Cambridge showing that many money habits form before age seven, and what that means for how we raise financially capable children The silence that has a cost — why money being treated as taboo in so many households hits girls hardest, and what happens when we break that silence The generational ripple effect — why financial literacy in one woman doesn't stay with one woman This episode is for anyone who believes the 123-year timeline is unacceptable, and wants to understand the role they can play in shortening it.
