Divorce can be an intense and exhausting process, especially for women and their finances. That’s why it’s so important to gather as much knowledge as you can going in — and HerMoney is here to help. You’ve been sending us your divorce-related questions, and we answer them in this Mailbag episode. Joining us is Rhonda Noordyk, a certified divorce financial analyst and CEO of the Women’s Financial Wellness Center, which provides consultations and classes to women considering or going through divorce. We tackle questions about paying an attorney’s retainer, keeping the house in an acrimonious divorce, restarting your career after being a stay-at-home parent, and more.  The HerMoney with Jean Chatzky podcast is sponsored by Edelman Financial Engines.
