Money & Her: Why Women Must Own Their Financial Choices | Lisa Pallavi Barbora
Episode notes
What does it really mean for a woman to be financially independent?
In this episode, I sit down with Lisa Pallavi Barbora, personal finance expert and author of Money & Her, to explore how money shapes a woman’s confidence, choices, marriage, motherhood, career breaks, and ability to start over during difficult phases of life.
We discuss why many educated and earning women still hesitate to take charge of financial decisions, the risk of saying “my husband handles the money,” what every woman should know before marriage, how couples can talk about money without conflict, and what financial planning should happen before motherhood or a career break.
Lisa also shares powerful stories from her book, including women rebuilding after crisis, a father who stepped away from a high-responsibility career to raise his child, and the money mistakes women entrepreneurs often make.
This is a conversation about financial agency, dignity, safety, and the freedom to make your own choices.
