Love, your Money - Wealth, Money, and Financial Advisor for Women 288: Ask Hilary: Late Starts, Establishing Financial Space, and Responsibly Supporting Others
Welcome back to Ask Hilary, where we tackle real-life money questions from women navigating change. Because if there’s one constant in our financial lives, it’s change.
We grow. We move. We change careers, enter new relationships, end others, care for family, and—somewhere in the middle of all that—we try to build a financial life that actually supports the life we want.
But those transitions don’t come with a playbook. And they often raise hard, vulnerable questions like:
- What if I’m just getting started with saving and feel hopelessly behind?
- What happens when the money dynamics in my relationship start to feel… off?
- How do I care for someone I love without compromising my own security
Today, we’re exploring what happens when life shifts—and your financial plan needs to catch up. Whether you're entering your 30s, becoming the breadwinner, or wrestling with family responsibilities, this episode will help you make empowered, values-aligned decisions with your money.
Remember: It’s never too late to make things better.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this week’s episode of Love, your Money:
- 02:21 Is it too late to start saving and building wealth at 35?
- 09:37 What do I do when I’m the breadwinner but feel less in control of my money?
