The Courage To Be 126: How She Retired at 34 Without a 9-5 with Jenni Schulz
What if financial freedom wasn’t about working harder but about designing a life you love?
Have you ever dreamed of quitting your job but felt trapped by money worries?
What if a simple list could change everything?
In this episode of The Courage To Be, host Tania Vasallo talks with Jenni Schulz about how she retired from the corporate world at just 34. Jen shares how books like Rich Dad Poor Dad and The Success Principles helped her shift her money mindset and rethink financial independence. She reveals how she used house hacking—buying properties, living in them, and renting out units—to build wealth, manifest her dream lifestyle, and even throw herself a retirement party.
Jen also shares a powerful anecdote about finding a forgotten list she had written a year earlier. This moment sparked her belief in manifestation and led her to dive deeper into vision boards and goal-setting.
If you're looking for financial freedom, passive income strategies, real estate investing tips, or inspiration to trust the process, this episode is packed with insights to help you take action!
