Fuller reports, “Leading content curation for Millie are Diane di Costanzo, editorial director of Meredith, and Catey Hill, the brand’s executive editor. Prior to joining Millie, Hill served as deputy editor of Marketwatch. She has also written about personal finance for The Wall Street Journal, Forbes and SmartMoney.

“The inaugural issue will be bundled with 1 million copies of Real Simple’s May issue, set to hit mailboxes in early April. Millie’s digital and social platforms will also launch in April.

“Consumer financial services company Synchrony, Millie’s exclusive launch partner, features both original articles and videos about women’s personal finance, in addition to stories repurposed from the magazine’s editorial on a dedicated hub through its website.
