Your Weekly Empowered List:

  1. Steps Women Can Take To Protect Themselves Financially Post-Divorce Financial Advisor Magazine, April 15 Divorce can be a turning point for women to take charge of their financial future. Experts recommend building an emergency fund with three to six months’ living expenses, investing in a high-interest savings account, and proactively managing assets to foster independence and long-term security. These steps help women transform financial uncertainty into empowerment and resilience after divorce.

  2. Single in Retirement: Looking for Love And Financial Security The Wealth Advisor, April 16 Retiring solo brings unique challenges—nearly a quarter of single retirees didn’t plan to go it alone, and many feel added financial strain. While some fear outliving their savings, others remain optimistic about finding love and stability. Experts stress the importance of holistic planning, emergency funds, and building strong support networks to help singles thrive in their next chapter.

  3. Avoiding Missteps In Wealth Transfers Financial Advisor, April 16 Transferring wealth—whether to family or charities—requires careful planning to avoid costly mistakes. Financial advisors highlight the importance of clear communication, updated estate documents, and understanding tax implications to ensure your legacy is protected and your wishes are honored.

  4. More Scams, Poor Decisions: Financial Literacy Declines with Age NAPA, April 17 New research shows that as we age, financial literacy often declines—making older adults more vulnerable to scams and poor decisions. The study found that even a small drop in financial know-how increases the risk of being targeted by fraudsters and can negatively impact overall wellbeing. Staying informed and seeking trusted advice can help protect against these risks

  5. Many Singles Nearing Retirement Afraid To Go It Alone, Survey Finds Financial Advisor Magazine, April 17 A recent survey reveals that many single adults approaching retirement are anxious about their financial future. Nearly half say they need up to $600,000 to feel secure, but most have saved far less. Without the safety net of a partner, singles are encouraged to seek professional advice and diversify their strategies to boost confidence and security

  6. Talking Points: The Real Retirement Crisis NAPA, April 18 Is the retirement crisis as dire as it seems? Some experts say the real issue isn’t personal savings, but underfunded government programs like Social Security. While many retirees are working longer and feeling more secure, policymakers are urged to focus on protecting the most vulnerable and ensuring programs meet their core mission

  7. March 2025’s Most-Read Articles Offer Something for Everyone Advisor Perspectives, April 19 From market insights to personal finance tips, March’s most-read articles covered a wide range of topics. Whether you’re seeking investment strategies, retirement planning advice, or stories of women leading the way, this roundup ensures there’s something to inspire and inform every reader.

  8. Hormones, ADHD, and Mental Health in Midlife Hormonal changes in midlife can exacerbate underlying or undiagnosed ADHD, leading to feelings of overwhelm, inadequacy, and distress. Many women are misdiagnosed or misunderstood, with symptoms often attributed to stress or personality rather than neurological factors. Raising awareness about ADHD in midlife and advocating for proper diagnosis and treatment can help women thrive during this demanding life stage.

  9. Menopause in the Workplace: A Call for Change Menopause is increasingly recognized as a workplace issue, not just a personal health matter. Recent studies show that menopause-related symptoms can lead to missed work, reduced hours, and even turning down promotions. Experts are calling for better workplace support, updated benefits, and open conversations to help women manage menopause without sacrificing career advancement or well-being.

  10. Sexual Health and Well-Being in Midlife Sensitive topics like sexuality, libido, and intimacy are gaining attention in women’s health. Evidence-based approaches—ranging from behavioral interventions to hormonal and non-hormonal treatments—are helping women address concerns about desire, arousal, and satisfaction, promoting a fulfilling sex life at any age.
