Inspiring Women in Recovery – A Story of Powerlessness Featuring Shari

November 4, 2019 By Deanna 5 Comments

I’ve been very excited to begin this interview series, inspiring women in recovery. However, first I had to line up some interviews. If you are a woman in recovery for anything and would like to share your story here on Recovering Women Wealth, please reach out to me. It can be wholly anonymous or not.

Without further ado, here is the story of my good friend, Shari, who tells her story of powerlessness…

Shari’s Story of Redemption

My name is Shari and I am 55 and remarried. I live in Northeast Ohio with my husband of 11 years. I have a 23-year-old son, who by the grace of God, is nothing like I was in my youth. As a child, my mother often expressed her wishes that I would someday have twins, just like me. Thank you, God, this has not happened!

There is nothing wrong with hiring a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) and if you do I’d recommend one with fiduciary responsibility.

What I’m not okay with is hiring a CFP because of a lack of investment knowledge. If hiring a CFP is in your best interest, you should hire someone who shares your beliefs/strategies about investing. That means first you’ll need to understand the basics of investing. My advice is to NEVER invest in something you don’t understand.  It’s your money and you want it to work for you.

You took the time to make it, now take the time to learn what it can do for you.

About Me

My name is Deanna and I am happy to be on this redemptive path. I got sober from drug addiction/alcoholism in 2010 and returned to a faith in Christ. Additionally, I finished digging my way out of debt in 2017. Today, I’m learning to be a wise steward/investor of my resources while helping other women find their victories too. More about me.
