SHE HANDLED IT!® Retirement
An Inspiring and Empowering Financial Guide for Women Over Forty
About the book
In times of crisis, she takes charge at home. When family members fall ill and require extra care, she sacrifices her time and resources, often at her own expense. Women, as primary caretakers, prioritize essential tasks over financial education, which is frequently sidelined. Furthermore, the financial industry often presents education as complex, dull, or inaccessible.
Many women grapple with emotional baggage when it comes to money, often feeling shame and guilt despite no wrongdoing, just due to lack of preparation. Retirement planning should start well before sixty, yet the uncertainty can be daunting. This book offers a comforting solution to alleviate insecurities, offering an engaging, narrative-driven (with less emphasis on data) financial guide. It’s ideal for empowering women without overwhelming them, providing encouragement for both mind and soul.
Arwen Becker, a national speaker, host of the She Handled It!® podcast, and coach to elite financial advisors, draws on her vast experience working with thousands of women striving for retirement success. With humor and raw honesty, she shares her own turbulent journey with money. This unique book, filled with inspiring stories of brave women, reassures you that it’s never too late, even after setbacks. Regardless of your life stage, it will change your perspective on money, offer direction, basic tools, and instill the belief that you can handle it!
