Women are living longer. Today, the average life expectancy at birth is 79.4 years for women and 73.9 years for men. Life expectancy is expected to increase into the next century, and it is likely to increase at a slightly higher rate among women. But lack of planning for the senior years has had a detrimental affect on women particularly. Did you know that more than 70% of all elderly persons with incomes below the poverty level are women?
The good news is that more attention is being paid to the issue and more companies are providing educational opportunities and tools to help women understand long term financial issues and empower their decisions. Caroline and Jacquie talk with Pam Schutz, Genworth Financial's Executive Vice President of Retirement Protection about building financial security and retirement paychecks you won't outlive.

The death of a loved one is always painful and the grieving process complex and profound. Yet when the loss occurs under tragic circumstances, there is a whole other set of emotional variables that the people left behind must face. Feelings of guilt, shame, and even anger combine with the overwhelming sadness of losing someone who was dearly loved. Drawing on her own experience of losing her son to suicide, as well as her conversations with hundreds of people who have grieved the tragic death of a friend or family member, revered singer-songwriter Judy Collins has culled together seven powerful steps toward healing. Caroline and Jacquie talk to Judy about these steps and her new book The Seven T's: Finding Hope and Healing in the Wake of Tragedy.

Did you know that recent studies show that teenage girls spend even more time on the internet than boys? That's interesting and alarming news, as teenage girls are more likely to be cyber bullied, or sexually harassed online than boys. Some internet service providers have built in parental controls to “block outâ€? certain types of web sites. However, none of these parental controls are foolproof, which means your kids are on the loose much of the time—and if you are a typical family, your kids probably know more about computers than you. Jacquie and Caroline talk with Steve Cross, president of Guardian Software to find out ways you can protect your children online.

 Media, peers, and even parents send teenage girls dangerously conflicting messages about what it means to look and act just right and to be good, hip, attractive, and desired. Frighteningly, everyday events can start a teen on a downward spiral. The growing rate of depression in teens is alarming, and parents and adults must understand the difference between “adolescent angstâ€? and trouble. Caroline and Jacquie talk with Dr. Lisa Machoian, author of The Disappearing Girl to help parents recognize signals of problem behaviors and find out what they can do to help their daughters before it's too late.

On Sept 11, 2001, Marian Fontana lost her husband Dave in the World Trade Center attacks. A firefighter for the elite Squad 1 in Brooklyn, Dave died on the couple’s eighth wedding anniversary. As we commemorate the 5th anniversary of 9/11, Caroline and Jacquie talk with Marian about her moving memoir, A Widow's Walk, a chronicle of the year she became a widow, single mother and activist. While reliving her own heartache, Marian also tells the larger, national story of her fight to maintain a dignified and reverent recovery effort at Ground Zero—and of her ongoing commitment to the families of firefighters and all 9/11 victims.
