"We will never solve the feminization of power until we solve the masculinity of wealth." - Gloria Steinem. On this podcast, we're going to call out those ways that women are consistently left behind financially. But most importantly, how women can help themselves. Join hosts Barbara Provost & Maggie Nielsen as they help you navigate the ins and outs of financial independence so that you can be financially fearless. They'll connect you with helpful resources and compelling stories from women all across the country. Whether it's buying a house, preparing for retirement, dealing with divorce, there won't be a single question off the table. Maggie is a partner and Barbara is the founder of Purse Strings, a two-part model that's all about providing women the tools and resources they need to help them learn and understand what they need to know to make good financial decisions. And they help connect women with attorneys, financial planners, realtors, and many other financial professionals who have the expertise and desire to serve the female market. Women & Money: The Shit We Don't Talk About can be your place for tools, resources, education and a place to ask the important questions on your mind (or even better, the - you know - you aren't talking about).

I’m a consultant, an educator, and an entrepreneur. My mission is to provide resources to women that help them make good financial decisions and to provide financial professionals who can help them plan for a wonderful financial future.
I created Purse Strings to help women become financially fearless by learning what they need to know to make the right financial decisions for themselves and their families.
I also want to partner women with the right financial provider. One that is eager to serve a powerful female market. One that has been trained and vetted by Purse Strings to provide the right products and the unique service women want.
Laughing, dancing, and questioning all things is the approach I take to life. It allows me always to be learning and exploring. I feel passionate about helping others become their best selves, from inspirational pep talks to educating women financially.
I learned from Barb the significance and relief of financial freedom. I know how important it is to be in the financial conversation. My focus is on young women like myself, to empower women to come to the table and have financial conversations.
We all have a picture of our perfect life, and it does not include having panic attacks about money or working in retirement. My mission is to encourage women to come to the table and create their own financial story so they can live a fearless life.
