Renew for Resilience: Rejuvenate Your Financial Wellness with Mary Ashby

Live Like Your Nail Color Podcast with Mary Foley

Quick question: On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being amazing, how would you rate your personal financial well-being right now? Now imagine if that number were higher. How would that impact your personal resilience as the economy and stock market inevitably rises and falls? What kind of mindset around money would help kick doubts and fears about funding your personal dreams to the curb?

It's my observation that we gals definitely want financial security and freedom, but we tend to avoid and postpone giving real attention to our financial life. My hope is that by the end of today’s podcast, you are newly inspired to kick your hesitations to the curb and spring some new life into your financial well-being. To help us do that is my gal pal Mary Ashby. When Mary and her husband Rob were in their 30s they were two state employees with two small kids barely making ends meet. I bet they would have rated their financial well-being a two!

Today Mary is a Regional Vice President and Investment Adviser Representative with Primerica Advisors. She calls her approach “Your Money GPS — Helping Grow, Protect and Save for Your Financial Future.” What I really appreciate about her is that she makes figuring out your financial well-being practical, attainable, and even fun!

In this episode, we talk about:

• What financial wellness means to women
• Using money as a tool
• Financial speedbumps women face
• Practical actions to improve financial wellness
