What a vision!⁣⁠ Her activities have been featured in Forbes, The Huffington Post & The LA Times.For full episode show notes, click here.We chose Episode 64 as our final episode in our December series of FI/RE for one key reason: our financial health is intimately paired with our mental health, and vice versa. When our wallets aren’t doing well, chances are neither is our mental health. Because when you’re first-gen (be that a student, wealth-builder, or immigrant), our financial background may not have been the most stable. That means that now, as adults, we tend to operate and view our finances from a scarcity mindset.Loving this episode? Leave us a review on Apple podcasts.
