Mel Browne | The Money Moves Every Woman Needs to Know
If you think financial planning is boring, intimidating, or only for men in suits—think again. These are the money moves every woman needs to know.
In this episode of the Power of Women podcast, financial educator and bestselling author Mel Browne joins Di Gillett to break down smart, accessible wealth-building strategies every woman should be using—especially in midlife.
You’ll learn:
- Why super splitting could be your most underused financial advantage
- How to find $10K in 12 months without getting a second job
- Why emotional investing impacts men more than women (and what to do about it)
- How to invest confidently—without becoming a finance expert
- What financial agency really means
- How to shift the money conversation in your relationship from mine to ours
This is what Mel said about:
- Super splitting and financial fairness:
“Super splitting is really, really easy… It’s simply your partner choosing to split up to 85% of their previous year’s super with you… because if I’m staying home, then it should just be that I get to enjoy some of your super as well.”
- Why emotional decisions can derail financial futures:
“So much of what we do financially is emotional… and my concern for too many women today is they’re making those emotional decisions, but they don’t know how to rebuild as a consequence.”
- Ageism and women’s financial confidence:
“I hear that every day from women in their 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s—‘I don’t have time to catch up.’ And yet I believe it’s this ageism that we have as women.”
