What does it really mean to be financially free as a woman? Not just secure—but serene. Confident. Fully yourself.
In the powerful conversation, I sit down with Christine Joy Luck Sarno, a financial coach and speaker known as the Financial Wingwoman. A former financial advisor, she now helps high-earning women take control of their money with clarity and confidence. Having built multiple seven-figure wealth as a single mom and financial head of household, she blends practical strategy with lived experience and humor. She guides women to cut through confusion, overcome money anxiety, and build wealth that supports the life they want. Christine believes that when women grow and protect their wealth, they gain personal freedom and the power to create lasting impact in their families, communities, and the world.
What makes Christine different—and why this episode felt so personal—is that she’s not here to hand you a checklist of books to read or give you the usual financial tips. She really gets women’s lives—the challenges we face, what actually supports us, and how to create real well-being in every area.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- The financial problems women are facing
- The wealth myths keeping women playing small—and what to focus on instead (hint: it's not lattes)
- Practical steps to build financial literacy
- The ripple effects of the gender wage gap, and the most powerful equalizer we have against it
- What a wealth ecosystem is and how to start building yours
- Why financial sovereignty is a joyful, deeply feminine act of self-care (which in turn is one of the most powerful ways to create impact in the world)
- Why financial serenity matters more than financial security
This conversation reminds us that financial empowerment isn't just personal—it's relational, communal, and transformational. When you trust yourself with money, you create:
✨ Ease in navigating life's unexpected turns—which means you can show up more fully for others ✨ Joy in knowing you have choices aligned with your values—which radiates to everyone around you ✨ Impact in your own life and rippling outward to your family, your workplace, your community, and beyond ✨ Self-trust in your ability to care for yourself fully—which gives others permission to do the same
