if money stresses you out, this challenge is for you


There are almost 100 people signed up for Fluent in Finances (an email challenge making it easier to talk money). I’m so excited that there are some many people eager to improve their financial literacy!

Understanding money made it simpler for me to manage and grow my money. And I want that for you too!

Also, I celebrated my 12-year wedding anniversary! My husband and I had a beautiful celebratory dinner yesterday and you can check out the deets here!

Also, in a moment of vulnerability, I had a panic attack this past week so bad I had to call my mom to calm me down. I share this because as a reader of this email, you might think I have it all together. It’s important to me that you know that I’m just as beautifully imperfect as you.

🧠 Mindset Shift of the Week

Are you a natural saver, an impulse spender, or somewhere in between? Understanding your money personality can help you recognize habits, play to your strengths, and adjust where needed. The more you know about how you handle money, the easier it is to create a financial plan that actually works for you.

💡 Smart Saving Tip

Saving money isn’t about cutting everything. In fact, it’s more about spending on what truly adds value to your life and letting go of what doesn’t. When your spending aligns with your priorities, saving feels easier (and guilt-free!). Need help figuring out where to adjust?

📉 Debt-Free Game Plan

Debt isn’t just about numbers. It’s also about habits. If you don’t identify the patterns that keep you stuck, you’ll keep repeating them. The key? Small, consistent changes that lead to breaking the cycle of debt and to lasting debt freedom.

For a deeper dive into building better habits (this includes money habits), click here to check out Atomic Habits by James Clear. One my of favorite lessons: how to make the habits we want to establish easier while making the habits we want to get rid of harder.


📈 Investing Made Simple

The difference between saving and investing?

You save for short-term goals (less than 5 years) like emergencies or vacations. Your money stays safe but grows slowly. You invest for long-term goals like retirement or kids' college savings. Your money grows faster over time, even with market ups and downs.

In short, if you’ll need it soon, save it. If you want it to grow for the future, invest it.

If you’re hesitant or nervous to invest, you should read this blog post.

One of my patients told me she pays over $700 for a monthly injection of a medication that her insurance would cover if she chose to take the pill version instead. However, that would be a pill every day or multiple times a day, and she simply doesn’t want to do that. Money buys you options, and that’s what I want for you. Not specifically to buy expensive medication, but to give yourself options. Also, if you haven't yet signed up, this is your reminder to sign up for the Ask Me Anything...
