In this special AMA Mailbag episode, Jean sits down with two thoughtful guests navigating how to prepare for the future as single moms.

First up is Rebecca, a mom of two in Oregon, about 15 years out from retirement. She’s wondering if she’s doing enough to get there. Then we hear from Sarah, a mom in Virginia with a big question: If something happens to her, how can she ensure her assets go directly to her daughter, not her ex? 

💡 Topics Covered:

  • Planning for retirement as a single parent
  • Pensions vs. savings: how to make it work
  • When to prioritize paying off your mortgage
  • Estate planning and guardianship for solo moms
  • Trusts, wills, and protecting your child's financial future
