Sam introduces expert-led webinars and "Pay What You Can" 1:1 sessions to guide women over 50 through career pivots, caregiving, and life after full-time work.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, UNITED STATES, August 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Sam, The Support Platform for Women™, today announced new accessible career and retirement offerings designed to equip women navigating career pivots and retirement transitions after 50. Through 30-minute complimentary webinars, live Q&As, and personalized 1:1 coaching, Sam provides practical strategies to counter workplace bias, re-enter the job market, or reimagine life after a primary career. To ensure no woman is priced out of guidance during critical shifts, Sam is introducing a flexible "Pay What You Can" feature across select 1:1 sessions.

These offerings arrive at a crucial juncture for women in the workforce. Recent employment benchmarks from the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics show that over 50% of workers over 50 face involuntary job exits, being pushed out before their planned retirement and losing critical income right at the height of their earning power. Compounding this, the latest Women in the Workplace report by McKinsey & Company and LeanIn.org indicates that promotion rates for mid-to-late career women stall out at just 4%.

At the same time, women nearing retirement age face multigenerational and financial pressures never seen before. Today’s 50+ demographic is caught in an intense squeeze: recent Pew Research and AARP demographic tracking show that nearly half of adults over 50 are housing or financially supporting adult children, while over 60% of those caring for aging parents are women in this exact age group.

"The picture that we were sold: a linear career that eases into a happy retirement is just not the case for women anymore – not when you're navigating workplace bias, economic shifts, and multigenerational caregiving all at once. At Sam, we’re delivering practical strategies, guidance, and accessible pricing so women can navigate this with professionals in their corner.” — Abby Nydam, Founder and CEO of Sam
