According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are close to 13 million widows and 800,000 divorces happen every year. It’s never our goal to experience widowhood or the loss of a marriage yet 70% of all married women will experience widowhood, and 80% of women will die single. 

It’s reported that approximately 70% of widows become impoverished after their spouse dies. That is because so many have to deal with decisions they are not prepared to make and expectations of so many around them including family, friends, clergy, etc. Their grief combined with their widow’s journey makes emotional and financial decisions difficult. 

So many of us make decisions that can alter our future, I am here to help give courage, educate, inspire and empower widows emotionally and financially so the can move forward confidently and purposefully. We also tend to self sabotage financially especially if we have inherited finance because of the loss of someone we love.
