Course Overview

Divorce isn't just the end of a marriage; it's often the start of a new chapter fraught with emotional upheaval and financial uncertainty. Sadly, the statistics paint a particularly stark picture for women. According to a recent report from the American Academy for Certified Financial Litigators, the financial aftermath of divorce tends to hit women much harder than men. While men's household income might dip by 23% post-divorce past the age of 50, women face a staggering 41% drop. When you factor in that women typically outlive men by about five years, the impact becomes even more profound, stretching that diminished income over more years.

But it's not just the immediate aftermath that's concerning. Children of divorce often carry a financial stigma into adulthood, potentially impacting their lifetime earnings by a whopping 46%. Preparing for such eventualities is paramount, as marriage rates are declining and divorce rates are steady. Ilene's new webinar series, "Women and Divorce," comes here.

Our focused course, "Helping Clients Find Meaning after Divorce," explores a crucial aspect of personal recovery: rediscovering purpose and fulfillment after a divorce. For women navigating life post-divorce—whether full-time mothers, working professionals, or retirees—reconnecting with their dreams and aspirations is essential for healing and future success.

This engaging webinar offers a wealth of ideas and strategies for women seeking new meaning and guidance on how advisors can support them in this journey. Building on financial discussions, this course offers inspiration and practical advice for moving forward. Attending gives you the tools to add significant value to your client's lives during a pivotal and vulnerable time.

Major Topics Covered:

  • Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
  • Women and Their Money Statistics
  • Focus on Actions, Not Outcomes
  • Journey to Empowerment and Independence
  • Establish an Advisory Team

Led by Ilene Slatko, a seasoned speaker and entrepreneur with over 30 years in the financial industry, this webinar series is designed to be a beacon of support in uncertain times. Whether you're a financial advisor, lawyer, or accountant, this course equips you with the expertise to ally for your clients when they need it most. Because when it comes to divorce, preparation isn't just crucial—it's everything.
