Helping Women Find Their Financial Path

Financial anxiety is growing for women in the US. While women have typically felt more anxious about money than men, it has grown since the start of the covid pandemic. In a recent study reported by CNBC in March 2021, women were concerned about not having enough savings for retirement, how to juggle work and caregiving, and how to best manage day-day expenses along with job security. The solution is learning how to make a plan that works for you.

Recognizing Women’s Financial Behavior in a Study with Foundry10

Financial knowledge attained in financial learning sessions helps women make financial decisions, especially during life transitions. Life transition events such as marriage, divorce, having children, moving, and changes in employment are important factors in promoting change in women’s financial behavior and attitudes. 

Financial knowledge learned in financial learning sessions helps women develop positive financial habits, such as saving and budgeting. 

Positive attitudes such as confidence ultimately help women maintain the financial changes they make in their lives.

Women taking Savvy Ladies’ financial learning seminars reported less financial anxiety, greater financial self-confidence, and greater financial self-efficacy after participating in Savvy Ladies’ Debt Education program.
