At Wisdom For Working Mums we’re all about empowering women to thrive.  We can only step into our full power and thrive when we are financially empowered.   In this week’s episode I interview Rebecca Robertson who is a leading light in the financial services industry empowering women.

Rebecca is an Independent Financial Advisor (IFA), mortgage broker and will writer.  She’s director of Evolution Financial Planning, an organisation aimed at enabling women and their families to take control of their finances in order to achieve long-term financial security. 

Rebecca is an award winning business owner, regular media commentator on financial planning, TEDx speaker and Huffington Post contributor.

The world of finance is traditionally male-dominated, and as a result, isn’t always geared towards the needs of women.  Rebecca has been a real advocate for addressing the balance in the industry, especially for her female clients.  Rebecca’s business comprises of an all-female team made up of financial planners, mortgage brokers and will writers.

During this conversation Rebecca shares her experience and wisdom to help put women firmly in control of their finances.
