From Experience to Excellence: Women Redefining Business and Financial Wellness | Global Conference
Sheryl WuDunn, Sheila Marcelo, Lauren Miller Rogen, Penny Pennington, Michele Trogni, Michelle Choney
This panel convened financial leaders, health innovators, and care advocates to address systemic failures in institutions designed around male lifespans, highlighting that women over 45 now launch businesses at twice the rate of men despite facing significantly higher chronic illness rates and lower retirement savings. Through initiatives by Zinnia, Edward Jones, Hilarity for Charity, and Ojai.ai, the discussion proposed a holistic framework integrating financial longevity, AI-driven household management, and brain health education to transition from "work-life balance" to comprehensive power. The resulting strategy advocates for redesigned risk profiles, early protective insurance planning, and intergenerational conversations to secure the $10 trillion in assets currently held by women against the projected demographic shifts in caregiving and wealth transfer.
