Episode 173 - Building Financial Confidence After Major Life Changes

In this episode I sit down with Susan Butler to chat about something that comes up a lot in divorce, and that is money. Susan offers a range of experience and expertise, with over thirty years as a financial adviser and now helping women master their finances. She's all about empowering women, especially those going through divorce or big life changes, to take control of their financial futures.


Susan opens up about her experiences, like seeing women surprised by how little they knew about their family finances when divorce hits. She talks about how crucial it is for women to ask questions and get the right advice during such a chaotic time. We both agree: don't be afraid to pause and dig deeper into your finances to make sure you come out stronger on the other side.


But it’s not just about getting through a divorce. Susan really focuses on helping women reinvent themselves once the dust settles. Whether it’s going back to school or starting something new, she’s all about helping women dream big and make it happen. Susan reminds everyone that managing your money is a big part of shaping the life you love.
