Carmen Rosas is an estate planning attorney and woman’s empowerment coach. Her road to being a lawyer isn’t smooth sailing—she never wanted to be one. She tried to drop out of law school twice due to her self-doubt because she knows that isn’t what she’s meant to do. But when her grandmother passed away and saw the difficulty in processing the legal documents, she realized that law is her calling and there are other people who need her help, too. This is what brought her closer to pursue estate planning and practice family law especially for women and people of color.

In this episode, Carmen talks about her personal experience that led her to teach women how to empower themselves by providing financial tools and legal advice without relying on a man. She also shares the importance of estate planning not only to the person passing but also to the people who’ll be left behind. As an advocate of women empowerment, she encourages women to be true to themselves and never asks for permission in whatever they do—just do what you love, make money, and have fun doing it.
