TIFFANY IS BACK Y’ALLWe had a great time with our guest co-hosts and we’re so very grateful. But we missed our Tiff and she’s BACK. We’ll get to hear all about how she spent her time off, and we’ll hear about how Mandi took some time for herself too. As much as we love talking about work, career, and money, you all know we’re big fans of taking time for rest too. But that doesn’t mean we don’t get to business at all. Mandi recently decided to strike out on her own entrepreneurial journey, and we’ll talk about why she did that (19:58), and the value of figuring out the work you’re truly meant to do (18:40). We’ve got some big things on the horizon, and we can’t wait to bring you all along.

We made it y’all. And I can’t thank my guest cohosts enough for joining me and holding my hand through this period of separation. Chris Browning of Popcorn Finance, Berna Anat from Hey Berna, Jamila Souffrant from Journey to launch and lastly Jannesse Torres-Rodriguez from yo Quiero Dinero. I had a blast getting to know y’all better and feel like I've got four new financial besties already.. This reference is strictly for the millennials so Boomers and Gen Z, sorry not sorry. Remember those old episodes of Saved By The Bell where they meet up at The Max and they reminisce about the school year and look longingly at nothing in particular in the distance and then the screen goes all squiggly and you realize it’s one of THOSE episodes….a recap of some of the best moments from the past? Well here we go Bayside Tigers -- oh I mean BA Fam -- I am about to walk down memory lane and replay some of the most memorable moments from our summer cohost series...

Happy BA Wednesday, this week's special guest co-host is the fabulous Jamila Souffrant from Journey To Launch. It started as a blog initially, chronicling her expedition to reach financial independence. After one year of logging her transformational growth to Financial Independence, the blog piqued the interest of a larger audience which inspired the launch of the podcast of the same name. Jamila talks about: How a breakdown during a 3 hour commute started her journey (5:04) How she was able to leave a 6 figure 9-5 to become an entrepreneur (8:33) Navigating life as an entrepreneur and parent during a pandemic (36:28) And we answer a great listener question about the smartest way to use inheritance money.Check the links below for more:Journey To LaunchJamila Souffrant on IG Learn more about your ad choices.
