Financial advice for Women

Empowering Women by Women

We are professional women, helping women through tailored fee-based financial advice.

We are a team of professional female financial advisers and accountants dedicated to empowering women through personalised, fee-based financial services. We understand the unique challenges women face in achieving financial independence and are committed to providing tailored advice to help you navigate these complexities. 

Female advisers empowering women financially

The gender super gap

Gender inequality is a major problem when gaining financial independence for women. Gender inequality is often described by the pay gap between males and females. By the time women get to retirement age, this gender pay gap translates to a much bigger superannuation gap of around 47%, which means that women retire with an average of $85,000 less super than men.



Empowering women with transparent financial advice

At the heart of our approach is complete transparency. We follow our Financial Services Guide (FSG) to ensure you fully understand our services, fees, and process, so there are no surprises. When you work with us, you're gaining an experienced female financial adviser and accountant who are passionate about helping women build confidence, security, and independence in their financial lives.

Our process includes a personalised Statement of Advice (SOA): a step-by-step financial roadmap designed around your unique goals and circumstances.



Facts we cannot hide from

  • Women retire with 47% less superannuation than men
  • Women working full-time earn 18% less than men
  • 44% of women rely on their partner's income as the main source of funds for retirement
  • 40% of older single retired women live in poverty and experience economic insecurity in retirement
  • $44,000 is the average female salary (including part-time workers)
  • 8.5% of women between 65 and 74 still have a mortgage
  • The number of women advisers has dropped to 23% compared to 28% since 2019

How we have helped Women

House purchase

We assisted a client who was wanting to sell her home and move into a retirement village. The process of this can be overwhelming and, with the requirements of Centrelink reporting for such events, can be intimidating. We took care of all the reporting and liaised with the conveyancer to get the correct paperwork to Centrelink without issue.

We often discuss downsizing properties or selling investment properties to free up liquid assets for clients' income needs. This can involve CGT issues as well as effects on Centrelink. With good advice before these events, we can ensure that clients are in a better position and retain their income and the assets that are important to them.

Centrelink

We have represented a client at the Administrative Appeals Tribunal regarding a Centrelink error, where a client was given a very large debt. We were able to piece back together the correct assets and provide sufficient evidence that resulted in the debt being dismissed by the AAT.

We routinely update clients' assets and liabilities with Centrelink and are their representative if any issues arise. As some clients do not have computer access and all Centrelink updates are required electronically, this is an onerous and sometimes impossible task for our clients. We relieve them of this stress.

Financial Settlement

We liaise with our clients' solicitors when financial settlement offers have been made, to provide details of taxation and superannuation implications of the proposals. This is a very stressful situation and can have long-lasting financial implications for both parties. We work towards a fair and reasonable outcome with minimal tax and long-term implications.

Wendy, Retired school teacher

When you place your financial business in the hands of Kim Sindel at Count Wealth you can completely trust her as your adviser. Kim makes herself incredibly accessible and she explains all facets of your financial journey carefully and clearly. Kim can cut through the financial jargon and she has the patience to answer questions you may not otherwise have had the confidence to ask. She gives you confidence that your preferences are understood, your decisions heard and your needs met. I confidently recommend Kim to friends and family.

Trisha, Self Employed Hairdresser

Our financial adviser, Kim Sindel, is a warm and friendly person and has made us feel very comfortable. Her finance and business knowledge was factual and this information certainly assisted us with making the best financial decision that suited us. Kim was readily available to answer any questions we needed to put to her on the phone or in person.

Frequently asked questions

What makes your service different for women?

Our team has direct experience with the financial challenges many women face, including career breaks, lower superannuation balances, and major life transitions. We provide personalised, transparent advice explained in plain language, so you always know where you stand and what your next steps are. Our goal is to make financial education and guidance feel empowering, not overwhelming.

I've never invested before. Where do I start?

We start by explaining how investing works, assessing your risk tolerance, and building a strategy tailored to your goals and circumstances. You'll finish with a clear plan and the confidence to move forward, not a product pushed at you.

How can you help me improve my superannuation?

We can review your current super, consolidate multiple accounts, optimise your contributions, and build a long-term strategy to help close the retirement gap many women face. Small changes made early can make a significant difference by the time you retire.

Will I be judged about my financial situation?

Never. Many of our clients come to us feeling uncertain or behind, and that's exactly what we're here to help with. Our role is to support, educate, and guide you without judgment, so you can move forward with confidence.

Let us get you on track to financial independence.
