When an unscrupulous stockbroker took Peggy Doviak's mother to the cleaners, Peggy did not just get mad---she changed careers. She became a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER professional, vowing to ensure that what had happened to her mother would never happen to a woman again. Now a bestselling author and syndicated radio host, Peggy invites you to Ask Peggy again---only this time, her focus is on the unique financial matters that you face in life as the queen of your home. In the clear, down-to-earth, conversational style that endeared her to readers in 52 WEEKS TO PROSPERITY, she provides the know-how and advice to help you reach well-being in your life. 52 WEEKS TO WELL-BEING is all about what you need to know to become queen of your finances, whether you are starting a business or caring for aging parents, planning for retirement or surviving widowhood or divorce, saving for a trip around the world or wanting to help with a child or grandchild's college education---or even your own! Peggy knows women need practical information that doesn't pander or intimidate---they want their money to do good and for them to feel good about their money. 52 WEEKS TO WELL-BEING delivers that and more.
When Peggy Doviak's mother got taken to the cleaners by an unscrupulous stock broker, Peggy got mad. She was so angry that she changed careers from corporate training to financial planning because she wanted to ensure that what happened to her mother never happened to anyone else. She has been committed to putting her clients first through a fiduciary relationship from the first day, not even knowing then that her position was optional and unpopular to many so-called financial advisers. But she's learned a lot. She earned her CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM practitioner designation and went on to earn a Master's in Finance with an emphasis in Financial Analysis even though she already had a Ph.D. in education. Active in her profession, Peggy works with financial literacy organizations, hosts a Knowledge Circle for the Financial Planning Association, writes a column for the Journal of Financial Planning, and is a member of the Women in Finance (WIN) Initiative of the CFP Board. She is a consumer advocate for fair financial practices both locally and nationally through her membership on the Legislative and Regulatory Issues Committee of FPA, and she enjoys meeting with lawmakers in Washington, DC. However, perhaps Peggy's greatest shaping of the profession has come through staying in education. She has taught literally thousands of financial advisers in classes covering advanced certifications, the preparatory curriculum for the CFP exam, and master's level courses in financial planning. Although Peggy Doviak can't keep every consumer safe, she keeps trying.
