[Replay] Taking Control of Your Finances After Widowhood
In honor of Financial Literacy Month, we’re revisiting one of our most powerful episodes of Financially Ever After: Widowhood, a conversation that underscores why financial knowledge is essential, especially during life’s most difficult transitions.
You’ll hear from Kathy Gleason, a widow, author, and host of the podcast As I Live and Grieve. Kathy shares her deeply personal journey of navigating grief and the overwhelming financial aftermath that followed the loss of her husband.
This episode is a powerful call for women to not just be emotionally prepared, but financially informed.
Are you struggling to cope with the loss of a spouse and the financial challenges that come with it? In this episode of Financially Ever After Widowhood, host Stacy Francis speaks with Kathy Gleason, an author and grief support expert with a deep understanding of the struggles that come with losing a spouse. Kathy is also co-host of the As I Live and Grieve podcast. Kathy details her personal journey of loss, including the challenges of managing the paperwork and red tape that come with it. She also shares valuable insights and practical advice on how to navigate the financial challenges of widowhood.
Losing a spouse is a complex and devastating loss that brings many unique challenges, including the loss of future plans and the added responsibility of managing all the paperwork and red tape that come with it.
It's important to surround yourself with supportive people who understand what you're going through and can offer emotional and practical support.
If you are not the partner who manages the finances, it's important to make yourself aware of what accounts and assets you have in case you need to take over in the future.
It's common for married couples to not make long-term financial decisions together, but this can leave one partner at a disadvantage if they need to take over after a spouse's passing.
Prioritizing tasks and taking care of practical matters can help you begin to work on yourself and heal after a loss.
