But today, a powerful shift is underway. Women are not just participating in the financial world; they are transforming it.In this episode, we're taking a deep dive into the changing financial lives of women in 2025. Drawing on insights from the World Bank, Charles Schwab, and other experts, we'll expose the persistent barriers that still exist, such as a lack of legal rights and the gender wage gap, which sees women earning just $0.84 for every dollar a man earns.But here’s where it gets truly fascinating:The Investing Boom: We'll reveal a powerful surge in women's investing, with 71% of women now in the stock market—more than ever before.The Performance Gap: You'll discover that women don't just participate; they consistently outperform men in investment returns by nearly 1%.The New Generation: We'll show how millennial women are leading the charge, starting to invest nearly a decade earlier than previous generations and building their financial confidence through community and social media.This isn't just a story of individual success; it's a call to action. We'll outline a two-pronged approach to closing the wealth gap, combining systemic changes—like shifting from gender-neutral to "gender-intentional" financial policies—with individual empowerment strategies, such as the crucial skill of salary negotiation.Tune in to learn why women are becoming a powerful, strategic force in finance, and to question our basic assumptions about who is "naturally good" with money.
