WSJ launches podcast focusing on wealthy women

The Wall Street Journal has started a new podcast called “Secrets of Wealthy Women” that seeks to help professional women get ahead and establish their financial stability.

Research shows American women stand to control billions of dollars in the coming years as part of a massive wealth transfer. WSJ’s “Secrets of Wealthy Women” will cover that trend and guide women along the way.

The podcast is the brainchild of podcast executive producer John Wordock, editor Brian Hershberg and personal finance journalist Veronica Dagher, who will interview guests.

The plan is to have several episodes each month with guests talking about their path to success and fortune.

During the fall of 2017, episodes will appear first on the TuneIn app and then Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, iHeartRadio, Google Play Music and any Amazon Alexa device.

The first episode with Morgan Stanley’s Carla Harris can be found here.
