For the better part of the past year, I've been writing the Money Diaries book , with the same goal in mind: to provide women with the financial tools they need for success. Yes, this book has all new Money Diaries, but it includes so much more: There's advice on how to realistically save $2,000 for an emergency fund and anecdotes from real women about the stress they feel paying down their high five-figure student loan debt. There's a story from a woman with breast cancer and no health insurance, and an interview with an L.A. diarist (one of my all-time favorite OPs) about how she includes a line-item in her budget to help her family.
