Women are now the primary breadwinner in one in one-in-four households in the UK. Yet most women still aren't being brought up to think like breadwinners. By institutional bias and subconscious beliefs, they're actively discouraged from building their wealth, pursuing their full earning potential, and providing for themselves and others financially. The result is that women earn less, owe more, and have significantly less money saved and invested for the future than men do. And if women do end up as the primary breadwinner, they've been conditioned to feel reluctant and unprepared to manage the role. In Think Like a Breadwinner, financial expert Jennifer Barrett reframes what it means to be a breadwinner by dismantling the narrative that women don't – and shouldn't – take full financial responsibility for creating the lives they want. Featuring a wide variety of case studies from women at all stages of their careers and economic lives, Barrett shares the secrets of women who already think like breadwinners. Barrett reveals the importance of women building their wealth and the freedom and power that comes with it.' Barrett’s manifesto is a must-read for any woman at any stage of her career.' - Eve Rodsky, author of Fair Play ER -
