·50 min·3 clips

Women Worth and Wellness combines health and wealth with “net worth and self-worth.”

1. WAKE UP! with Joni frames this episode around Nancy Lynn Griffin and her Women Worth and Wellness work on women’s health, wealth, and empowerment. 2. Joni introduces Nancy as the founder of Women, Worth, and Wellness, and Nancy matters because she has worked in Procter & Gamble, wealth management, and women’s leadership. 3. The episode asks how women can reclaim worth, embody power, and make practical choices about health, money, and legacy. 4. Nancy says her first career was at Procter & Gamble in Canada, where she was one of the first female managers. 5. She says the glass ceiling pushed her to leave, and she later ran politically and stayed active in community work. 6. Nancy says she was recruited into wealth management about three years after leaving Procter & Gamble. 7. She says she focused on women in the 1990s because they were beginning to build investment portfolios while carrying heavy responsibilities at home and work. 8. Nancy links health and wealth by saying women often have little time for investments because they are managing children, parents, staff, and family health. 9. She says heart disease is the leading cause of death for women, not breast cancer, and that women’s symptoms differ from men’s. 10. Nancy says fast consultation matters when something feels wrong, and she gives Lyme disease and tick infestation in Canada as another example. 11. Nancy says her mother died of heart disease after being diagnosed with indigestion, which made her more direct about warning signs. 12. She says back pain and arm pain can matter for women, and that symptoms can vary by person, not just by gender. 13. Nancy says the universe can “whisper” before it becomes a “Mack truck,” which is her way of urging early attention to health concerns. 14. She says it is “never too late” to start managing money or health, whether someone is 20 or 60. 15. Nancy says people should ask what they want, how much money they have, and how they want to maximize life from that wealth. 16. She says spirituality can be integrated without being bluntly religious, and she points to Eagle Feather Riding near Calgary as an example. 17. Nancy says women are often told they are “not worthy,” and she uses group presentations to create a safe place for questions. 18. She says widows need planning because couples often rely on one spouse to manage investments, housing, and future decisions. 19. The conversation is conversational and practical, with Joni asking short prompts and Nancy answering in a directive, coaching style. 20. Women thinking about health, retirement, widowhood, or philanthropy would likely get the most from this episode, while listeners wanting a purely theoretical finance discussion may skip it.
