When I graduated from nursing school in 2011, I knew next to nothing about managing money. I paid my bills, spent the rest, and hoped for the best. That was the extent of my financial strategy. It wasn’t until 2018 that I started listening to personal finance podcasts. Suddenly, I was hearing words and concepts I had never come across before, like sinking funds, debt-to-income ratio, and index funds. At first, it felt like learning a new language. But the more I listened, the more I started to understand. And once I understood, I started making better financial decisions. These decisions helped me save more, invest smarter, and feel in control of my money. That’s why I created Fluent in Finances, a free 4-week email challenge. Because I don’t want it to take you years to learn the money concepts that can change your financial future. What is Financial Literacy?Financial literacy is simply understanding how money works. This allows you to earn it, save it, invest it, and use it wisely. Studies show that people with strong financial literacy skills are less likely to struggle with debt, more likely to build wealth, and feel more secure about their future. The problem? Most of us were never taught these things. And when we try to learn, we’re met with jargon, complicated explanations, or advice that assumes we already know the basics.
That’s Where Fluent in Finances Comes In.Starting March 31, if you choose to join, you’ll receive an email every weekday covering a key financial term. Each term is explained in simple, relatable language, with resources in multiple formats (audio, video, blog posts, and social media examples) so you can learn in a way that works best for you. By the end of this challenge, you’ll: It’s completely free because I believe this is knowledge everyone should have. A year from now, you could be making financial decisions with confidence instead of confusion. But it starts with understanding the language of money. Let’s do this together.

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...
