Financial Responsibility: The key to Empowerment and Independence

As women, we often dream of a life filled with love, happiness, and financial stability.

A regular scene in my childhood is my mom while cooking a lovely dinner that always smelled of amazing indian spices

Get a job. You will be an independent woman and can get anything you want in life.

I got a job and am also happily married. But I did not feel powerful.

Can anyone else relate to this and ever wondered why!!!

It was a different flavour of helplessness my mother felt.

We’ve all grown up with certain beliefs about money and relationships. But, have you ever stopped to question if these beliefs are actually holding us back from having authentic connections with our loved ones?

There’s one more important aspect of financial independence that we often overlook:

RESPONSIBILITY

While getting a job is a critical step, it’s just the beginning. Here are few steps to live our dream life.

Have healthy boundaries:

Remember, no one else can decide how your hard-earned income is spent. It’s up to you to make the choices that will shape your financial future. 

Communication is key. Have respect but be clear and precise about your opinions and decisions.

Be responsible with your money:

Choose to spend money on what you love, plan your savings, and take control of your financial future. 

Accountability is key!!

Be financially literate:

Financial literacy is a skill that takes time to develop, but the rewards are worth it. Unfortunately, financial literacy is not taught in schools, so it’s up to us to learn from other sources. 

By becoming financially literate, we can make informed decisions about how to spend and save our hard-earned income and avoid falling victim to financial abuse.

Have Fun!

Remember, the intention is freedom, joy, independence and satisfaction. This is fun.

This is a journey and it’s FUN!!!
