Take two, with fixed links: ⛅ What About 2022 Was Hopeful?

Hi there! 👋 We had a bit of a technical snafu yesterday that prevented the links below from working. Sorry about that! It’s all fixed now.

The Ellevest Team Reflects on 2022

There’s no way to sugarcoat it: 2022 was a rough one. From the attacks on women’s rights, to a tumultuous stock market, to historic levels of inflation (which hits women hardest), to the threat of recession (ditto), to layoffs across industries, to the implosion of crypto, it’s been … something.

How much has it impacted women? And amid so many challenges, where can we find the hope we need to see us through into 2023?

At Ellevest, this is something that’s always on our minds. And here’s the hope: It’s that women are taking action. Some in big ways; many in small ways.

Click below to reflect with us on how.
