Ep. 04 Kathleen Judge: There is So Much Hope! The Power of Involvement in Relationships

Summary:In this conversation, Kathleen Judge and Paulette Rigo discuss the importance of involvement and sharing in relationships, particularly in marriage. Kathleen reflects on her realization of the power dynamics at play when she was not included in significant decisions, while Paulette emphasizes that true partnership requires sharing every aspect of life. They both agree that without this level of openness, marriage may not be viable.About Kathleen:"My story is one of great loss (and regrowth) through an unexpected divorce. Eleven years before, I quit my corporate job to stay home and raise the kids. Suddenly and unexpectedly, our marriage ended. I was in my 40's, alone with my kids, and responsible for our financial futures. Talk about vulnerable, terrified, and overwhelmed! What did I do? I found a financial advisor I trusted, we walked through the practical steps I needed to take, and the rest is history. Now I work as a financial advisor helping women new to managing their own wealth make smart financial decisions, so she feels comfortable and confident with her financial strategies. My goal is for her to regain - or perhaps reinvent - her most fulfilling life."Takeaways:- Divorce is overwhelming in many ways including financially.- Many spouses have not been actively involved in their family's finances and so it is a shock.- It's important to take time to ensure you're with the right financial advisor who can lead you through this season of life.- What qualities to look for in a financial advisor who can help you rebuild - or reinvent your life.SIGN UP FOR my Better Divorce Blueprint PROGRAM: https://betterdivorceblueprint.com/bdbWEBSITE - resources for those in need of Certified Divorce Coaching and Private Mediation Services :https://betterdivorceacademy.com/SOCIAL MEDIA - bit.ly/betterdivorceacademyBuy my book and workbook: Better Divorce Blueprint https://betterdivorceblueprint.com/RESOURCES - https://betterdivorceacademy.com/reso...AUDIOBOOK FROM AUDIBLE - https://www.audible.com/pd/Better-Div...Are you looking for answers and guidance?
