Living on one partner’s income, stepping away from corporate America, firing up a serious side hustle… these are just a few of the topics we’re discussing with our guest today. Shang Saavedra is a financial coach, founder of the site Save My Cents, and now author of the new book “Wealth is a Mindset.” Shang lives at the intersection of mental health and financial wealth, and she uses her own personal experiences, like achieving financial independence by the age of 31, to help others to achieve their own financial goals. We discuss ambition, living in NYC, making sacrifices for a better future, and plenty more during our episode today!
