July 12, 2024 06:00 - 34 minutesHave you ever stopped for a second and thought about all of the things you do at work in a week? There are some tasks most of us need to do to be successful at our jobs. But do you also find yourself doing other tasks like administrative work, planning and setting up for parties, or training new employees? And have these responsibilities started to take over your work days? If so, you’re not alone. These types of tasks are called “non-promotable tasks” and women volunteer for them far more ...

Ep 429: The Messy Truth Behind Building A Multi-Million Dollar Business
June 26, 2024 06:00 - 45 minutesWhen we talk about the question of whether women can have it “all,” successful careers, thriving marriages, and families, the messy truth is often, no, at least not all at the same time. Alli Webb, founder of Drybar found that out the hard way when her business blew up seemingly overnight. She shares what fame, attention, and obsession with building a brand cost her and how she found herself again in the wake of the fallout. In Mailbag, a listener asks if using roadside assistance too many t...
Do Money Manifestations Do Anything?
June 21, 2024 06:00 - 35 minutesWe’re told to use money affirmations like “I am rich” and “I am always discovering new sources of income” to increase our abundance. We’re even told that we can manifest our way to a completely new life using the power of positive feelings and good vibes. But do money manifestations really work? Amanda Montell had the same question. In her new book, The Age of Magical OverThinking: Notes on Modern Irrationality, she digs into our obsession with manifestations, nostalgia, confirmation bias, a...
Ep 428: Top 10 Investing Myths, Busted
June 19, 2024 06:00 - 41 minutesIt’s no secret that women’s wealth is growing (hello, Great Wealth Transfer) and that we’re investing in the stock market in larger numbers than ever before. A 2023 study by Fidelity found that 60 percent of women are invested in the stock market, up from just 44 percent in 2018. Michele Cagan, author of Stock Market 101, wants to see that number get even higher. Cagan has spent her career as a CPA and financial mentor working with clients to demystify investing because she knows that gettin...
Ep 427: When Ambition Goes Too Far
June 12, 2024 06:00 - 44 minutesAmbition…let’s talk about it. We’ve been told it’s not a dirty word, that it’s ok (actually more than ok) for women to be ambitious. We’ve been told we should strive for C-suite positions, the corner office, and to continue reaching for higher and higher paying roles. For Jennifer Romolini, these messages were working, yet reaching the top did not fulfill her in the way that she thought it would. In her new book Ambition Monster, she chronicles how being overly ambitious and reaching the top...
Ep 426: How Women’s Work Holds America Up
June 05, 2024 06:00 - 44 minutesHere’s one thing we know — America runs on women – our paid work, our caregiving work, and our invisible work keeps the country going — and it’s taking its toll. According to the American Psychological Association’s 2023 Stress in America survey, women say they’re feeling stressed, misunderstood, and alone. The survey also found that women were more likely to say they “strongly agree” that no one understands how stressed we are and we were less likely to report that we can get over our stress...
Ep 425: Does More Money = More Happiness?
May 29, 2024 06:00 - 40 minutesAccording to the 2024 World Happiness Survey, we’re pretty unhappy as a country this year. And although there are plenty of external reasons for us to be unhappy — sky-high costs at the grocery store, mortgage rates hovering around 7%, and credit card debt soaring – we’re all about controlling what we can control and that includes prioritizing our well-being over all else (no summertime sadness here). Stephanie Harrison, author of: “New Happy: Getting Happiness Right In a World That’s Got It...

Ep 424: If Your Budget Isn't Working, Here's Why
May 22, 2024 06:00 - 30 minutesIs your budget working? The 50/30/20 budgeting rule — one of the most popular budgeting methods that has been around for 20 years — was created by Elizabeth Warren (yes, that Elizabeth Warren) and has largely been seen as the “gold standard” of budgeting ever since. But does it work for today’s economy? There’s also reverse budgeting, which we use in our Finance Fixx program, and has helped our participants save an average of $1,500. The point is, we have options, and our goal with our money ...
Ep 423: How A Coupon Influencer Found Herself In Debt
May 15, 2024 06:00 - 43 minutesIn 2010, Lauren Cobello (formerly Lauren Guetman) created an entire brand as “the coupon lady” after she shared her story of how she got her family out of $40,000 in debt by couponing and budgeting.

But here’s the thing about creating a brand and a community around your personal story — som...

Ep 422: Media, Money, and Messy Women
May 08, 2024 06:00 - 40 minutesMoney touches everything in our lives. And for women, who have long been documented to earn less than men, save less than men, and invest less than men, the stereotype is often that we’re doing money “wrong.” But it’s getting old. We know that statistically, women are better investors than men are, we fare better during times of recession, and we’re often more thoughtful about our budgets. Yet the stereotypes persist: the “girl math” trend of recent years tried to insinuate that we’re messy ...

Ep 421: Redefining Success In the Winner-Take-All Economy
May 01, 2024 06:00 - 45 minutesEleven years ago, Sheryl Sandberg’s “Lean In” hit the shelves and became an instant hit. Her feminist manifesto encouraged women to stop holding themselves back from working to reach positions of power and instead lean on other women’s experiences to help them. Now, many women are pushing back on the “lean in” approach that placed so much responsibility on individual women rather than the societal and economic structures around them. They’re also questioning if they really want to have it all...
Mailbag: The best place to keep summer job money, plus how to keep an emergency fund.
April 26, 2024 06:00 - 29 minutesIn this special Mailbag edition, we hear from a listener whose daughter is getting her first summer job. She’s wondering if it’s best to put the money in a high-interest savings account, or a Roth IRA. We also hear from someone who subscribes to the FIRE movement (Financial Independence, Retire Early) and is so focused on saving that she’s not able to keep money in an emergency account for true emergencies. In our news of the week, some steps you can take if you’ve been waiting weeks (or mon...
Ep 420: What Financial Freedom Means For Millennials
April 24, 2024 06:00 - 46 minutesLately, have you been more intentional about the time you spend working? What about putting more effort into finding financial freedom? These are two hot-button topics with Millennials these days, particularly with regard to the time we spend working — specifically, the four-day workweek. About a month ago, Bernie Sanders proposed legislation that could make this the new reality for all of us. But Holly Trantham and her company, The Financial Diet, were ahead of the curve when they implement...
An Economist Weighs In On Being A Woman
April 19, 2024 06:00 - 39 minutesA recent essay in the Wall Street Journal made the case that women are both happier — but also overall but sadder — in our daily lives than men are. Why? We’re juggling countless competing priorities on our never-ending to-do lists, including managing our jobs, wrangling our kids' schedules, and keeping up with everything at home. Betsey Stevenson, economist and professor at the University of Michigan, has conducted groundbreaking research in this field. She joins us to talk about why women’...
Ep 419: What Your Culture Says About The Way You Manage Money
April 17, 2024 16:30 - 43 minutesNavigating money issues with your family is hard. Navigating money issues with your family is even harder when you’re a first-generation American. First-generation children of immigrants face unique cultural and emotional barriers and often find themselves at the intersection of building a financial life for themselves and supporting their parents financially. Gigi Gonzalez found herself facing this dilemma when she got serious about her finances and realized the information she was reading ...
Make the Mundane Meaningful With Mike Norton
April 12, 2024 06:00 - 27 minutesThink, for a second, about all of the things you do before you head to the gym or go out for a run. Do you wear special running shoes? How do you tie them? Do you give yourself a pep talk on days when you’re just not feeling it? Is there a certain playlist you always listen to? Dr. Mike Norton, author of: “The Ritual Effect: From Habit to Ritual, Harness The Surprising Power of Everyday Actions,” says while working out at a certain time of day may be a habit, all of these little things we do...
Ep 418: The Menopause Brain with Dr. Lisa Mosconi
April 10, 2024 06:00 - 46 minutesMoney touches everything in our lives — including our health. And women know there’s one topic that has long been ignored in American society, to the detriment of millions of women: menopause. It’s a big deal. By 2030, 1 billion women worldwide will have entered (or will be about to enter) menopause and on average, medical costs for menopausal women ages 45 to 54 are 47% higher than they are for women of the same age who don’t exhibit menopause symptoms. Dr. Lisa Mosconi discusses her new bo...
Budgeting For Your Closet
April 05, 2024 06:00 - 29 minutesHow much of your money do you spend on the clothes in your closet? Now what about your time? In other words, how much time do you spend staring into the abyss of your wardrobe? One study says that over the course of her lifetime, a woman will spend a full year in front of her closet from age 16 to 60, just deciding what to wear. And this doesn’t include all of the other time we’re supposed to spend making our closets more manageable and our wardrobes more streamlined. Kim France says it’s ti...
Ep 417: Why MLMs Love To Target Women
April 03, 2024 06:00 - 53 minutesHave you ever gotten a message on Facebook that looks something like this? “HEY GIRL, I HAVEN’T SEEN YOU IN A WHILE, YOU LOOK AMAAAAZING. DO YOU WANT TO LOOK EVEN BETTER AT YOUR NEXT EVENT? BUY MY MASCARA AND I’LL THROW IN A FREE GIFT. BUT HURRY, SALE ENDS AT MIDNIGHT.” Yeah…those messages. While it may be easy to brush these off, roll our eyes, and hit delete, a surprising number of women in America are caught up in these businesses, known as multi-level marketing schemes, or MLMs. In today...
Mailbag: How to get out of a bad property investment and manage your finances after a raise.
March 29, 2024 06:00 - 37 minutesIn this special Mailbag edition, listener Anya seeks advice on a real estate investment dilemma.

In our news of the week, the consequences of paying over the manufacturer’s suggested retail ...
Ep 416: Get What You Want With Charles Duhigg
March 27, 2024 06:00 - 53 minutesThink about the conversations you have every day. There are the ones you have with your friends over coffee to catch up on life, the ones you have with a family member while walking the dog, and countless others throughout your week. While it may not seem like it, every conversation (yes, even the mundane ones!) is a negotiation, and once we have the skills to know which type of conversation we’re in, we can use every single conversation to better connect with those around us. That’s what Ch...
Mailbag: I love my nonprofit job, but are they taking advantage of me?
March 22, 2024 06:00 - 19 minutesIn this special Mailbag edition, listener Carolyne calls in to ask whether it’s time to leave the nonprofit job she’s had for more than three years. Her organization is facing major changes and challenges, and she’s unsure whether to stay and embrace the chaos or look for something else that offers more stability and better pay. In our news of the week, we break down why you should be aiming to get as close to $0 back on your tax refund as possible. If you already got a big return this year, ...
Ep 415: How A Personal Finance Expert Fell For A Financial Scam With Charlotte Cowles
March 20, 2024 06:00 - 47 minutesWhen we envision the type of person who falls for a financial scam, there are usually a few key characteristics that come to mind:They may be elderly, using a landline phone, or in a state of panic as the person on the other end of the line informs them that if they don’t hand over $10,000 immediately, they’ll be arrested. But those stereotypes are just plain wrong. Charlotte Cowles, the Cut’s financial advice columnist and a longtime freelance business columnist for The New York Times, fell...
Ep 414: Retire On Your Own Terms With Anne Lester
March 13, 2024 06:00 - 49 minutesWe’ve been thinking a lot about “Peak 65” over here at HerMoney HQ. If you haven’t heard about it, it’s the fact that more people are turning 65 starting this year than at any other point in history. That’s important because this age shift is going to have a huge impact on everything, including our economy, Social Security, the upcoming election, and especially on retirement. Anne Lester, former head of retirement solutions for J.P. Morgan Asset Management Solution Group wants everyone to kn...

March 06, 2024 07:00 - 43 minutesNavigating your career has always been difficult, but that’s especially true in today’s landscape where the state of the job market seems to be constantly in flux. While you may be looking to quit your job in search of better wages or improved work-life balance, you may also want to stay put this year. If you are sticking to the job you’ve got, you’re probably thinking about a way to move up the ladder. According to a recent CNBC poll, nearly half of women polled describe themselves as “ve...

Ep 412: How To Avoid Burnout With Ali Abdaal
February 28, 2024 07:00 - 48 minutesWe’ve all heard it time and again from the world’s biggest success stories: They worked crazy hours, gave up their friendships, and kept their nose to the grind for years before they got their big break. What are they telling us? Essentially, you’ll never succeed unless you’re willing to give up everything else to get there, and there’s no way to avoid burnout. In other words, suffering is what leads to success. But we’ve also seen that this mentality can cause burnout, depression, or steppi...
Ep 411: How To Handle Mean Girls At Work With Rosalind Wiseman
February 21, 2024 07:00 - 45 minutesDo you prefer to have a male or female boss? Have you ever thought about why? A UCLA study analyzed responses from more than 60,000 people and found that women, even those who were managers themselves, were more likely to want a male boss than a female one. The participants explained that female bosses are “emotional,” “catty,” or “bitchy.” If we want more women in positions of power, we need this narrative to change. It’s so important that women respect their female colleagues and appreciat...
Ep 410: Why We’re Attracted To Our Money Opposites With Scott Rick
February 14, 2024 07:00 - 43 minutesIn her most recent book, Women With Money, HerMoney CEO Jean Chatzky asked hundreds of women: “What do you want from your money?” Although womens’ answers were all over the map, they were all some form of safety and security. Would men say the same? Probably not, because we know that in general, women and men see money differently. With that in mind, this week we’re exploring how you and your partner can get on the same page when it comes to talking about money — even if you’re coming from co...
Bonus: Discover Your MoneyType With Dr. Jennifer Leigh Selig
February 09, 2024 07:00 - 34 minutesHave you ever really thought about why you are the way you are with money? For most of us, it’s the result of how we’re wired, how we were raised, and the financial events and struggles we experienced along the way. Sometimes, how we think about money can be positive, and we can feel empowered with our finances… But other times the way we’re ingrained to think about money could be negatively impacting our mental and financial health in ways we’re not aware of. In other words, our MoneyType co...
Ep 409: Your Roadmap to 2024 Career Success With Fran Hauser
February 07, 2024 07:00 - 48 minutesHow are you feeling about your job? Depending on what industry you’re in, you may be concerned about layoffs or consolidation.

Fran Hauser, author of “Embrace The Work, Love Your Career,” recommen...
Ep 408: Pay Off Your Debt In Baby Steps With Jade Warshaw
January 31, 2024 07:00 - 52 minutesHaving kids is a huge life decision, and more American women are either delaying motherhood or choosing not to have kids at all. Despite the short-term plunge — and comeback — during the early years of the pandemic, the birth rates have been consistently trending down. There are a few reasons for this, namely, kids are really expensive, and millennials have a lot of student loan debt to pay off. Jade Warshaw, cohost and debt elimination expert on the Ramsey Show, found herself in almost half ...
Ep 407: From Blogger to Media Mogul With Sami Sage
January 24, 2024 07:00 - 52 minutesWhile some may say 2023 may have been “the year of the girl,” we say, unapologetically, it was the year of the woman. Just take a look at Taylor Swift. In 2023, the term “Swiftonomics'' was coined — because Swift generated significant revenue, tourism, and jobs in every city where she performed. Like many other incredible women, she owned her power in a new way, and the world took notice. Betches Media took this concept — that ALL women should celebrate being powerful, and own our instincts ...
Ep 406: Teaching Kids About Money With Yanely Espinal
January 17, 2024 07:00 - 51 minutesWas money something you learned about in school? We’re not talking about math classes like geometry or pre-cal, we’re talking about personal finance — the art of managing our dollars. While some of us were lucky enough to learn personal finance from our parents, an aunt or another money-savvy family member, most of us never took a single personal finance class in school before we opened our first bank account. Yanely Espinal, author of Mind Your Money, Insightful Stories and Strategies to Hel...
Bonus: Social Security Clawbacks With Larry Kotlikoff and Terry Savage
January 12, 2024 07:00 - 31 minutesLast year, one million Americans got a letter in the mail – the Social Security Administration miscalculated their benefits. They had been overpaid, and now, the government wanted that money back within 30 days. How much money? In one couple's case, it was almost $70,000 and in another’s, it was $52,000. Most of us don’t have thousands of dollars to spare. Especially when we’re retired or nearing our retirement years, every dollar counts. So how do you prepare ahead of time if you’re one of t...
Ep 405: The 2024 Economy And What’s Really Happening, With Rana Foroohar
January 10, 2024 07:00 - 45 minutesA fresh New Year means it’s time to take a fresh look at the state of the economy. The U.S. economy has continued to grow at a stronger pace than expected, which has made many of us wonder what, exactly, happened to all of that recession talk a year ago? At the same time, we’ve also had a spectacular recovery of women in the workforce — with 75% of working-age women now have jobs. Plus, holiday spending late last year reached an all-time high, with Americans spending almost 10% more than they...
Ep 404: Your 2024 Happiness Reset With Arthur C. Brooks

The US is now the 15th happiest country overall. Let’s keep those good vibes going and start 2024 with a happiness reset. Arthur C. Brooks, co-author of Build The Life You Want: The Art and Science o...

In Mailbag, we hear from an older lis...
Ep 402: How To Fail, With Amy Edmondson
December 20, 2023 07:00 - 44 minutes“Move fast and break things.” That was Mark Zuckerburg’s now-famous early motto for Facebook. Fast forward to today, many budding startup founders have come to live by this idea — that if you’re not getting messy and failing often, you’re not making progress — and you’re definitely not creating the next Facebook. Recently though there’s been some backlash to this startup culture mentality (Ahem, the FTX scandal.) But where’s the balance? How can we encourage creativity and innovation and at t...
Bonus: The #Tradwife Trend And Our Culture With Anne Helen Petersen
December 15, 2023 07:00 - 30 minutesTrends say a lot about where we are as a culture… and some of them say a lot about what it means to be a woman with money in the 21st century. Thankfully, long gone are the days when men made all the money (and also controlled what it was spent on) while women cooked, cleaned, and greeted their husbands at the door with a hot meal every night. But recently, there’s been a growing trend on social media with the hashtags #tradwife (traditional wife) or #stayathomegirlfriend. What does this all ...
Ep 401: Financial Fallout And Our Economy With Bethany McLean
December 13, 2023 07:00 - 42 minutesWhile many of us would prefer to forget the pandemic ever happened, the choices we made (as a society and perhaps, personally) in 2020 continue to have lingering effects. We know that women were disproportionately affected by the pandemic — an estimated two million women left the workforce due to the strains of caregiving. So, did the government do a good job of protecting us? And how are policies that were put in place, (such as stimulus checks and extended unemployment) still affecting our ...
Ep 400: Here’s to 400! AMA with Jean Chatzky

Ep 399: Uncertainty And Your Investments With Maggie Jackson
November 29, 2023 07:00 - 51 minutesThese days, things feel more uncertain than ever. Take the economy, for example. By almost any objective measure, we’re doing much better economically than we were three years ago, but the vibes are… off. So, what’s going on? For one, we’re still bouncing back from astronomically high prices due to inflation in 2021 and 2022. Mortgage rates are also at their highest levels in more than 20 years making it really difficult to buy a house. But while all of this uncertainty in the world may feel...
Bonus: How Investing Is The Key To Unlocking Women’s Power With Gargi Pal Chaudhuri
November 24, 2023 07:00 - 33 minutesOur new show How She Does It with Karen Finerman delves into all things women, money, and power every week… But the truth is, we can’t talk about women in power without also looking at women’s financial power. Even now, in 2023, women are woefully behind when it comes to investing and realizing the kind of financial freedom that can only come from building wealth. Thankfully, there are incredible women working tirelessly to make that very thing happen, and Gargi Pal Chaudhuri, Head of iShares...
