One of my good friends Natalia Benson recently had me on her show to break down some of the barriers that stop people from achieving financial freedom. I get into the three pieces of financial advice that I wish I would’ve taken seriously when I was younger and explain exactly how you can start applying those lessons to your life today. 

I also share what to do if you want to transform your current financial picture and create a solid foundation for investing. Natalia is an amazing example of what it looks like to take advantage of economic shifts and put the work into yourself and your business, so you don’t want to miss this conversation!
