Financial literacy, personal finance, and investing may be words that make you cringe, but surely we can agree on their importance. Nancy Sheed is speaking to HAVYN member and financial literacy expert, Galia Gichon about 3 easy steps you can take today to help you gain a little control and more confidence for better financial decisions.

Galia Gichon’s approach to personal finance is also the name of her website, Down to Earth Finance where she is using 20 years of experience from finance and 10 years of experience from Wall Street to help women, entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and anyone willing to simplify their finances and feel more empowered.

In this episode, Galia explains why these 3 steps are so important and why they are a great place to start understanding your finances and the options available to you.

3 Steps to Better Money Habits:

• Learn what investments you have (this is empowering)
• Consolidate your investments (save on fees and frustrations)
• Look at the Retirement Forecast Calculator (plan for the future)

Nancy also highlights the incredible author Galia is. She released her first book, The Accidental Suffragist, a historical fiction that weaves together the values, passion, and love Galia has for female empowerment.

Something inspiring that Galia shares, we can all take with us, is the power of doing something for yourself. Her journey to becoming a published author started as a selfish time for herself to enjoy and be part of something different. Feeding our inner desires and pursuing our passions can lead to a number of possibilities, but you’ll never know if you don’t open up and explore.
