Rising from the Ashes: FemmeRise’s Empowering Response to the Silent Epidemic of Financial Abuse

In the heart of America, a silent epidemic is sweeping across homes, leaving countless women trapped in a cycle of financial abuse. This form of domestic violence, where one person manipulates another’s access to financial resources, is a pervasive issue, occurring in an estimated 98% of abusive relationships1. It’s the invisible chain that keeps victims tethered to their abusers, making it the number one reason victims stay in or return to abusive relationships1.

The consequences of financial abuse are profound and far-reaching. It leaves victims financially unstable, unable to leave the abusive relationship, and at a higher risk of experiencing food insecurity and other hardships. The emotional toll is equally devastating, with victims often grappling with feelings of grief, sadness, anger, and loneliness. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated this issue, with a study finding that the rates of intimate partner violence, including financial abuse, increased during the pandemic, with women, particularly Latina immigrants, disproportionately impacted2.

In the face of these alarming statistics, one woman, Nargiza Mashuri, decided to take a stand. Having personally walked through the fire of divorce and financial abuse, Nargiza founded FemmeRise, a beacon of hope for women navigating the tumultuous waters of divorce, including those who have been victims of financial abuse.

“FemmeRise was born out of my own journey through divorce and financial challenge,” says Nargiza. “I understand the pain, the fear, and the uncertainty that comes with it. But I also know the strength and resilience that lies within every woman. At FemmeRise, we are committed to empowering women to reclaim their financial independence and rebuild their lives with confidence. We believe that every woman has the right to live a life free from financial abuse, and we are here to provide the tools, resources, and support to make that a reality.”

FemmeRise is more than just a company; it’s a sisterhood, a community that understands the emotional, financial, and legal challenges of divorce. It fosters a sense of sisterhood, reminding women that they are not alone in their journey. Through its resources and support, FemmeRise is helping women rise from the ashes of their old lives and build a new, fulfilling future.

FemmeRise’s flagship product, the Phoenix Rising Divorce Kit is a lifeline for women in the midst of divorce, providing a step-by-step roadmap to navigate legal, emotional, and financial complexities. This comprehensive resource empowers women to reclaim their financial independence, a critical step for those recovering from financial abuse.

The company is also set to launch the FemmeRise Ultimate Money Makeover course, a transformative program designed to guide divorced women and single mothers towards true financial freedom. This program is particularly beneficial for victims of financial abuse, equipping them with the knowledge and tools to regain control over their finances and break free from the cycle of abuse.

FemmeRise is making a difference in states with the highest divorce rates in the US, such as Nevada, Arkansas, Wyoming, West Virginia, and Alaska3. In these states, women aged 25-45, many of whom work in industries like service, agriculture, manufacturing, oil and gas, mining, healthcare, and tourism, are finding solace and support in the resources provided by FemmeRise.

In the face of financial abuse, a silent epidemic sweeping across America, FemmeRise stands as a beacon of hope. It’s a testament to the resilience and strength of women, a testament to the power of community, and a testament to the indomitable spirit of its founder, Nargiza Mashuri. Through FemmeRise, women are not just surviving; they are thriving, reclaiming their financial independence, and rebuilding their lives with confidence.
