The Weird Financial Reality Facing Gen X Women Right Now

Can we talk about the weird financial reality of being a Gen X woman approaching 60? I'm thinking about retirement and what I want the next chapter of my life to look like. But at the exact same time, I'm focused on making MORE money. Apparently I'm not alone. I posted that thought on Threads and thousands of comments later, it became clear that a lot of Gen Xers are wrestling with the same contradiction. In this episode, I'm talking about retirement, money, healthcare, career pivots, fear, and why I refuse to believe our future has to be all doom and gloom. Pretirement isn't about giving up on the future or sacrificing the present. It's about taking care of future you while still having fun with current you. If you're a Gen X woman trying to figure out money, work, retirement and what comes next, you're in the right place. Subscribe and come figure it out with me.
