Navigating the Legal Side of Wealth Building with Jennifer Justice, The Justice Department

For many, wealth and money mean security. And for those who grew up without it, that search for security can have even more meaning that we carry with us throughout life. This week’s guest, Jennifer Justice, is no exception.

 

JJ knew from a young age she was ready to break cycles. From being the first in her family to attend university to become a lawyer, to creating The Justice Department to help inspire women to ask for more in life, she has always had a fire inside of her that’s willing to push boundaries for good.

 

In this episode, we talk about what it was like starting out in a male-dominated industry, what her turning point was to start focusing on women’s leadership and pushing for gender equality, and the ideals she’s instilling in her children about money. 

 

JJ doesn’t take any of the successes she’s had throughout her career for granted and works hard to ensure that other women are afforded the same opportunities to live richer lives.
