Send us a textWe’re excited to be joined by Tiffany Irving, CFP®, CEPA®, Senior Vice President and Wealth Advisor at Mesirow Wealth Management. She is also a first-generation college graduate, the daughter of a single mother and a mother herself. There are so many aspects of her journey that many of us can relate to, and today, we’ll dive into her experience being the primary breadwinner in her household. In a world where more women are navigating the responsibilities of being the primary earner, we thought this would be an insightful conversation to bring to the podcast. She’ll discuss the societal expectations and judgments that women often encounter in this role, as well as the importance of empowerment and education in building financial confidence. From regular "money dates" to effective risk management she has some great insights to share!Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:0:00 – Intro2:03 – The female breadwinner6:57 – Having conversations about money8:48 – The challenges of female breadwinners16:24 – Financial planning as a couple24:52 – The changing financial landscape27:52 – Open communication about family financesLearn more about TiffanyRead Tiffany’s Bio HEREEpisodes LinksTiffany on Purse Stringshttps://pursestrings.co/professional/financial-advisor/illinois/chicago/tiffany-irving-cfp-cepa/Mesirow Wealth Managementhttps://www.mesirow.com/homeTiffany’s Teamhttps://www.mesirow.com/capabilities/wealth-management/irving-team#1849274314-1719998646Join the Purse Strings Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/pursestringsco/ To learn more about money and access additional episodes, visit us online: https://pursestrings.co/
