If you were to ask yourself or friends in your inner circle, do you have visibility to the household finances, what would their answer be? On this episode of the Power Of Women podcast Di gets enlightened by wealth coach, Julia Scott, and if your answer to the aforementioned question is “No”, then you need to listen too. Julia was an Accountant and wealth management expert who trusted her husband to manage their family finances. Just as many of us do, right? Well as it turned out, she was wrong. It wasn’t until her marriage broke down that she discovered her trust was misplaced. She was cut off financially and left living on welfare. Motivated by this experience and putting her professional skills to work, today, Julia is a successful self-made woman, and she has made it her business to help others achieve the same in building their own financial security.
