Why wait for a government strategy on financial ge
Why wait for a government strategy on financial gender equality when you can actually develop your own plan starting with mindset and then challenge that with actions?⠀ ⠀ Here’s some questions to ask yourself inspired by the #Women's Index as we try to shift our mindsets on gender financial equality.⠀ ⠀ 1. Education: What’s your education look like and what are your plans to keep learning to increase your personal net worth in terms of brain power and skills? ⠀ 2. Employment: What’s your employment situation at present and are you satisfied? Would you like to be working more or less? ⠀ 3. Unpaid work: How much time are you spending on unpaid work tasks such as care or housework? Where can you afford to pull back in order to increase your paid work potential? ⠀ 4. Leadership: What are your career ambitions? What does leadership look like to you and what kind of leader would you like to work for or become?⠀ 5. Superannuation: What do your retirement savings look like? Do you care? Is there something more you can be doing to top up your savings without putting yourself under financial stress? ⠀ 6. Income: Where is your income coming from? Do you know if you are paid fairly in your workplace? Have you ever asked if your workplace measures gender gap gaps? What are you doing to advance your prospects of a pay rise? Indeed are they even possible in your workplace? ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #leadership #gender #careerguidance #careertips #genderequalitytips #strategy #womenandmoney #womensupportingwomen #women

Memories of a Budget2021 girls trip to Canberra. Thank you to @security4women for organising, the Budget didn’t quite deliver on gender equality but there were some small wins. The push continues with these amazing women as we set our sights on the next trip! @femeconomy @theruralwoman @the100.project

#Budget2021 missed an opportunity to deliver a strategy and timeframe to achieve gender equality. I’m in Canberra today to discuss what was in it and where it’s fallen short. What we received were initiatives that help on supporting women in the workforce and with super and tax relief and even around housing. But the number of people set to benefit from a holistic response to a big issue will be small in contrast to what is needed. #genderequality #womensupportingwomen #parliamenthouse #womenempowerment

Breaking news: Women who work part-time and casual
Breaking news: Women who work part-time and casual are set to see their super boosted by possibly thousands of dollars with welcomed news that the $450 threshold for the super guarantee will be axed.⠀ Women could see as much as an $11,000 boost to their super thanks to the abolishment of the $450 monthly threshold in what’s considered a modest change that will ensure more workers are paid super when they earn even small amounts with a single employer. Visit Financy.com.au for more Budget updates. ⠀ #womenandmoney #genderequality #gendergap #superannuation #budget2021 #cfs #kellypower⠀#womensupportingwomen ⠀ https://buff.ly/2Q4YrVw

Did you know, closing the gender gap in unpaid work could be significantly helped by women doing just 2 hours a week less of unpaid activities. So basically delegating or letting things go. This move would also unlock more of a person’s potential to participate in other things like paid work. #challengeyourself it’s not rocket science. #genderequality #unpaidwork #womensupportingwomen.

Before you dash off to start the weekend, I'm going to play Mum (Happy Mother's Day!) and remind you all about making the most of a $500 boost to your superannuation this financial year.⠀ ⠀ The deadline for the government's co-contribution is approaching at June 30, so here's some of what you need to know to assess whether you or someone you know - maybe even your Mum, qualifies.⠀ ⠀ 1. Your annual income must be between: $39,837 - $54,837.⠀ ⠀ 2. You must contribute a non-tax deductible contribution into super during the financial year - so prior to June 30, 2021⠀ ⠀ 3. Must have at least 10% of your income from employment or business activities⠀ ⠀ 4. Be less than 71 years old⠀ ⠀ 5. Not hold a temporary Visa⠀ ⠀ 6. Lodge a tax return for the relevant FY⠀ ⠀ 7. Hold a super balance of less than $1.6 million - easy for many of us!⠀ ⠀ 8. And must not have contributed more than $100k for this financial year.⠀ ⠀ #retirement #tax #financialplanning #genderequality #superannuation #womenandmoney

The Australian government looks increasingly as if it would be right at home in an episode of #TheHandmaidsTale with its piecemeal approach to tackling women’s pain points in favour of the broader male-focused economic agenda. #FederalBudget ⠀ ⠀ In my latest opinion piece for the @financialreview I argue we need a big picture response to addressing gender equality in the upcoming #budget and #nationalwomenssafetysummit - copy the link here: https://buff.ly/3b433Tb #women #genderequality #womensupportingwomen #feminism #politics
