The older I get, the more I realize how important money management is.
Having money, keeping money, and growing money – things that we really aren’t taught early in life, but things that make a huge difference in the quality of our lives.
I was fortunate enough to be in a tough financial situation in my early 20s that opened my eyes to the importance of doing the right things with money.
Now, I strive to help women see the value of budgeting and money management and learn what it takes to succeed with it.
