Today's episode features Jessica from The Fioneers. Jessica wasn't always financially savvy and started her career making just $11k per year. Then, her husband introduced the ideology of retiring early and Jessica started climbing the corporate ladder. She quickly realized that racing towards financial independence at a rapid pace was taking too heavy of a toll on herself, so she changed course. No longer would she be hyper-focused on a retirement date but instead embraced what she calls "Slow FI". Taking the benefits of incremental freedoms along the way and enjoying the journey without burning yourself out just to shave some time off your working years. Jessica will challenge your beliefs of FI, so take a listen and see how your mindset may change.
