Facing Finances After Loss: My Conversation on The Rabbi’s Widow Podcast

I had the privilege of being featured on The Rabbi’s Widow podcast—Episode 31—for a heartfelt and honest conversation about widowhood and financial planning.

As a Certified Financial Planner™, Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®, and founder of Sephton Financial, I know how overwhelming it can be to make financial decisions in the midst of grief. Host [Name of Host, if you’d like to include it] and I talked through some of the most common questions widows face:

What can I afford now?
How long will my savings last?
How do I plan for a future I didn’t expect?

We also explored why it’s okay not to have all the answers right away—and how small steps can lead to a greater sense of control and peace over time.

If you or someone you love is navigating this kind of transition, I hope this conversation offers insight, encouragement, and a reminder that you’re not alone.
