Our guest today is Susan Washburn, CFP®, CeFT®, JD, Senior Financial Advisor of ProVise Management Group. Forced to rebuild her life after Hurricane Katrina and an unexpected divorce, Susan found herself feeling overwhelmed and lost in the world of finance. Instead of letting this define her, she decided to get smart about money and pursue a career in financial planning.

Today, Susan helps women take ownership of their financial lives. Join us as we discuss the importance of setting personal financial goals, seeking out supportive financial professionals, and, most importantly, taking small, actionable steps toward financial independence.
