Women live longer, earn less on average, and experience more career interruptions—yet retirement advice often assumes a one-size-fits-all approach. In this episode, we explore why financial planning for women requires a fundamentally different lens and how structural, behavioral, and educational factors shape women retirement planning outcomes in ways many advisors underestimate. In this conversation, you’ll discover: Why compounding life events—not behavior alone—put women at a retirement disadvantage How financial literacy and confidence directly influence women’s long-term wealth outcomes What planners can do differently to create more effective, empathetic retirement strategies for women If you want a clearer understanding of the real challenges shaping women’s financial futures—and how better planning decisions can close the gap—this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
