On Women’s Equality Day, we highlight female influencers who are providing valuable financial advice and engaging their audiences, addressing the need for more accessible financial guidance for women.

August 26th is Women’s Equality Day in the US, commemorating the signing into law of the Women’s Suffrage Amendment in 1920, making a turning point in the history of the struggle for equal treatment of women and their rights. In 2021, Women’s equality has grown to mean much more than just sharing the right to vote and yet, women still only make $0.82 for every dollar a man makes.
When exploring the topic of financial wellbeing for women Prof Roslyn Russel states “There’s actually not enough financial advice available that’s affordable and fun and just for the average young person, let alone an average woman,” she says. “It is just not available. You can either get a financial counsellor or you can spend hundreds of dollars to get a financial adviser. There’s nothing in between.”
To celebrate Women’s Equality Day, the Wearisma Team have wanted to share the female influencers within the industry who we follow on social media and who are engaging with their audiences to provide advice on how to be more financially savvy.

Both influencer marketing and traditional advertising can achieve broad reach and foster trust—yet they do so with different strengths and challenges. Influencer marketing builds trust through personal, authentic endorsements that resonate with targeted audiences, often leading to higher engagement and a sense of community. Traditional advertising, on the other hand, leverages the credibility of established platforms and can quickly raise brand awareness across a wide audience.
