It’s all about candour and calling out systemic inequity on this episode of Centsability with Amie Baker. She’s welcoming back Dawn Thomas, Senior Financial Adviser at The Wealth Designer, for a high-energy chat about what’s not working for women. And how we can get brave, speak up and take steps to build on positive change of the kind represented by Australia’s newly adopted Workplace Gender Equality Amendment (https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/C2023A00018/Html/). The conversation touches on everything from important liabilities women need to keep in mind at every stage of their careers – from salary negotiation to parity in child care burden to asking for that overdue pay raise. You’ll also hear a profound call to action related to helping younger women recognize their power (as well as the power of superannuation over time as a tool for building wealth). Get ready to challenge social conditioning and break traditional gender roles. The time has come and these two financial planning experts are empowering us with case studies, stats and strategies for having those difficult – but necessary – conversations! Says Dawn: “We’re talking about a huge systemic shift that needs to happen – and valuing women as a whole when we are being undervalued.”
