MONEY MATTERS with Christopher Hensley

The state of working women has been declared, debunked and debated since the days of Rosie the Riveter. The headlines, and the statistics behind them, however, don’t tell the whole story. The truth is, many women today are breadwinners; and these breadwinners are struggling. They are caught in a perfect storm of male-dominated culture at work, traditional social norms at home, and outdated schedules in the schools. Mogul, Mom, & Maid takes an honest look at how women are balancing home life and career. The pressures of child rearing, coupled with an unfulfilling corporate culture, are too great to be ignored. Author Liz O’Donnell goes beyond statistics and tells the stories of women all across America who are juggling careers, motherhood, marriage, and households. Mogul, Mom, &  Maid looks at the choices women are making, the options they have, and the impact these decisions have on themselves, their families, and the businesses that employ them.

On todays show we were joined by author Liz O'Donnell. We specifically discussed her book and shared what she learned from the women interviewed during the writing of the book.

"You go to work each day tasked with (1) inventing brilliant solutions that (2) meet specific objectives by (3) defined deadlines. If you do this successfully you get to keep your job. If you don't, you get to work on your resume. The moment you exchange your creative efforts for money, you enter a world where you will have to be brilliant at a moment's notice. (no pressure, right?)" 

Here's the hard truth: sooner or later all of our tomorrows will run out, so how we choose to spend today is significant. Each day that we postpone difficult tasks and succumb to the clutter that chokes creativity, discipline, and innovation results in a net deficit to the world, our organizations, and ourselves.

Today we where joined by bestselling author Todd Henry. We discussed how to do your best creative work each and every day. We also discussed Henry's 1st book the Accidental Creative as well as his brand new book Die Empty.

Today we discussed College Funding, Financial Aid and Taxes. As you know tax returns are tied to many processes. In relation to FAFSA, students applying for Financial Aid must provide their parents tax return if they're under the age of 23 and not officially "independent" according to FAFSA guidelines. What are some of the best practices when saving for and funding college savings?We also hit on Affordable Healthcare Act and some of the tax issues we should be aware of.

We were joined by Elizabeth Ferrer from Neighborhood Tax Centers. You can learn more about Neighborhood Tax Centers by visiting:
