1. Honoring the Strength and Resilience of Women

Today, on International Women’s Day, we celebrate the power, resilience, and achievements of women across the world. At Tamara’s Financial Planning & Consultancy, we believe that true empowerment starts with financial independence. When a woman is financially secure, she gains the confidence to make decisions that shape her future and impact generations to come.

Yet, financial stability remains a challenge for many women—balancing career and family, navigating investment decisions, or planning for a comfortable retirement. This International Women’s Day, we encourage every woman to take charge of her financial journey.

Real Story: How Wanjiku Secured Her Future

Wanjiku, a 38-year-old entrepreneur and mother of two, had always focused on growing her business but had never thought about retirement or emergency savings. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, her income dropped drastically, and she struggled to pay school fees and medical bills.

A year later, she made a decision that changed her life—she started a structured financial plan. With the right guidance, she:

✔ Opened an investment plan that now earns her passive income.
✔ Took a health insurance cover that ensures her family is always protected.
✔ Started a retirement savings plan, ensuring she never struggles later in life.

Today, Wanjiku runs her business with confidence, knowing she has a solid financial foundation.

Why Financial Planning Matters for Women

Women often face unique financial challenges, including:
✅ Career breaks due to caregiving responsibilities.
✅ Longer life expectancy, requiring more retirement savings.
✅ Income gaps, making wealth-building harder.

This makes financial literacy, smart investment decisions, and long-term planning essential.

Here are five key financial steps every woman should take:

1. Budget and Save for Stability

A well-structured budget helps control spending and ensures consistent savings. Start by saving at least 20% of your income and building an emergency fund that covers six months of expenses.

2. Invest for Wealth Growth

Leaving money in a savings account isn’t enough! Explore money market funds, stocks, real estate, and pension schemes to grow your wealth over time.

3. Get Insurance for Protection

Life is unpredictable. Whether it’s health, life, education, or business insurance, ensure you and your loved ones are financially secure in case of emergencies.

4. Plan for Retirement Early

A pension plan isn’t just for employees—entrepreneurs and freelancers need it too! Start now to enjoy financial freedom in your golden years.

5. Secure Your Legacy with Estate Planning

Ensure your wealth benefits your children and loved ones through wills, trusts, and proper asset management.

Breaking Barriers – Women and Financial Independence

This year’s International Women’s Day theme encourages women to break barriers and redefine financial success. Financial independence is not just about wealth—it’s about freedom, confidence, and the ability to make empowered decisions.

At Tamara’s Financial Planning & Consultancy, we are committed to helping women build, protect, and grow their wealth through expert financial planning. Whether you are a businesswoman, a professional, or a stay-at-home mom, you deserve financial security.
