Nearly half of working women in the United States are now their household’s main breadwinner. And yet, the majority of women still aren’t being brought up to think like breadwinners. In fact, they’re actually discouraged from building their own wealth, pursuing their full earning potential, and providing for themselves and others financially. The result is that women earn less, owe more, and have significantly less money saved and invested for the future than men do. Financial expert Jennifer Barrett reframes what it really means to be a breadwinner. By dismantling the narrative that women don’t—and shouldn’t—take full financial responsibility to create the lives they want, she reveals not only the importance of women building their own wealth, but also the freedom and power that comes with it. With concrete practical tools, as well as examples from her own journey, Barrett encourages women to reclaim, rejoice in, and aspire to the role of breadwinner like never before.
