Today we’re talking about “girl math”, but not in the way TikTok wants you to. My guest is Meg Wheeler, CPA, financial educator, founder of the <a href="https://ede65be1.streaklinks.com/Cgq2ER9XVxLFf9BCvwP3YotU/https%3A%2F%2Fequitablemoneyproject.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Equitable Money Project</a>, and all-around champion for financial equity. We unpack the viral "girl math" trend and why it may seem harmless but actually reinforces some pretty dangerous stereotypes about women and money. Meg and I both agree: women are not bad at math—and this kind of messaging does more harm than good.But we don’t stop there. We also dig into what it really takes to build wealth when you don’t come from generational wealth, how financial knowledge—not money—is often the most valuable asset, and why staying politically engaged is a financial strategy. Meg also talks about her popular Substack Call Your Representatives, and we close out with a little joy: what she's happily spending her money on this summer.
