Ladies, take control of your finances | Philly’s 2026 poet laureate

For decades, women have been taught that they don’t need to understand money - their fathers or husbands will handle that. But women, whether single, married, divorced, or widowed, should feel confident taking control of their own financial present and future. Regina McCann Hess is a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst, President of Forge Wealth Management, and author of "Super Woman Wealth: How to Become Your Own Financial Hero". She sits down with Racquel Williams to share some financial tips and inspiration. Connect with Regina or get her book at www.reginamccannhess.com or www.forgewealth.com. Then, Shara Dae Howard heads to Chestnut Hill to hang out with Philadelphia’s 2026 poet laureate, Raina Leon, who’s promising to bring Philly’s many communities together through poetry and presence.
