Does thinking about money and building wealth inspire you? Or is it a turn-off?
Is dealing with finances just one more stressful thing you need to worry about in an already busy life? Or is it something that you actually enjoy? Something that brings meaning to your life?
What motivates you to care about money?
My guest today says the reason many women feel disempowered around our personal and family finances is because so much of the financial services industry doesn’t actually address OUR interests and OUR priorities. They aren’t even speaking directly TO us.
Sam Saperstein is Managing Director of Women on the Move, a dedicated initiative at JPMorgan Chase focused on supporting women-run businesses, improving women’s financial health, and advancing women’s career growth. And for Sam, it’s important to ask why—even two decades into the 21st century—women are STILL less likely than men to own our financial futures.
"I think it's complicated. And I think sometimes it's boring. Do you know why it's boring? Women are not motivated by a number out there. You remember the commercials that used to have people walking around with a number over their head, like that was their magic retirement number? Women are motivated by life, by what money can do for them in their life, by their goals, by the freedom, by the flexibility, not by a number. " -Sam Saperstein

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
