Better Never Means Better for Everyone...
In Margaret Atwood's novel, The Handsmaid Tale, the commander complains about how things were “before” Gilead, and suggests that what they’ve built is an improvement.
Offred, the female protagonist responds, “Better? I say, in a small voice. How can he think this is better?” She has lost her child, her husband, her name, and her autonomy. She’s constantly monitored. She can’t read, work, own property, or move freely. For her personally, everything that made her life meaningful has been stripped away.
His answer—“Better never means better for everyone… It always means worse, for some”—is chilling.
In this world, it often means worse financially for women. A world where:
-
Women earn 81-94 cents on the dollar compared to men according to the Brookings Institute.
-
Women are more likely to run out of retirement savings.
-
Women often shoulder the responsibility of leaving the workforce to care for children and aging parents.
-
Workplace culture pushes women out of lucrative careers and senior roles.
The world is largely made, and shaped by men, for men.
In addition to these challenges, you're trying to build a career, nurture a relationship with your partner or spouse, raise kids, and care for your physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. No wonder building an authentic, rewarding, and financially secure life feels so difficult.
Here’s what we believe: it’s not about being the smartest, the hardest‑working, or the luckiest. The biggest difference between those who succeed and those who struggle is help — not just any help, but a custom, goals-based strategy, from a trustworthy financial mentor or coach. When you choose your mentor, you choose your future.
What would it mean for you and your family to have someone who is truly invested in your success? A person who listens, centers your priorities, and helps you create—and sustain—positive financial momentum toward a life with less stress and scarcity.
We believe so strongly this kind of result is possible we created a supportive financial community to serve 25 motivated women called Arkable Wealth 4 Women.
We’re not for everyone, but if “improvise, adapt, and overcome” is already your way of moving through life, you may have exactly what it takes.
Want to join our small community? Don't delay, our ranks are filling fast.
