We all see the ever-increasing number of statistics about how intelligent, hard working women are gradually closing the gap with men in professional employment.
But where is this taking them?
It is suggested that 6 out of 10 women age 50 and older worry about outliving their retirement income, while most men are untroubled.
This study goes on to report; ‘This is less related to longer lifespans and more to roles throughout life, in particular a combination of fewer work opportunities, disadvantages in divorce, greater burden on care, and, spending family money on male partners who died before them”.
C’mon! Did we really need a study to tell us this?
The real issue is what to do about it!
Of course, it is partly the money, women usually are disadvantaged and cannot save as much.
But a good life is also built on really insightful management of time and circumstance.
Not just day-to-day, but also working within a longer-term perspective that helps give meaning to the present when things get challenging.
Our purpose is to explain how to achieve this more balanced life experience.
