Redefining Wealth: Intelligent Financial Planning and Purposeful Life Design

Original Air Date Wednesday, May 27, 2020 

It may seem frivolous to discuss finances during the ‘Great Pause’ the human race is experiencing now due to the COVID-19 pandemic but what if this downtime is a glimpse into our retirement years? What other opportunity will we have to create our own schedules and follow our body’s circadian rhythm with no fear of missing out?

Now seems to be the perfect time for us, women in particular, to redefine what wealth means and evaluate whether meaning and purpose have more value than material gains. Are we able to adopt a mindset that goes far beyond feeling financially secure?

To investigate the ways we can prepare ourselves the future we want, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host, Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with the Financial Editor of NBC’s Today show, Jean Chatsky about her new financial guide, Women with Money, the HerMoney podcast, and simple ways women can clean up their money life. And, the author of Retirement by Design, Ida Abbott who shares how financial planning principles can play a role in creating a retirement life that brings purpose and meaning to the golden years.
