Elisabeth Embry talks with financial journalist Emma Johnson, founder of www.WealthySingleMommy.com, about how the definition of a family is changing in the US and how women can continue to be career driven, family oriented, and a sexual being.

The two discuss the importance of not relying on your significant other for financial support, but rather focusing on being able to care for yourself if things go bad, as well as working past the “working mom guilt” that society dumps on moms who work.
