This week, Jean sits down with Jill Herzig, Chief Brand Officer and co-founder of Midi Health, to discuss how perimenopause and menopause impact women’s careers, finances, and overall well-being. We break down the financial burden of menopause — lost productivity, medical costs, and workplace struggles — and explore real solutions, from hormone therapy to lifestyle changes. And in Mailbag: Should you consolidate multiple retirement accounts or keep them separate? What’s the best way to get out of a timeshare without ruining your credit? And—if you forget about an old 401(k)—will anyone actually remind you it’s there?
