My Money Story
💰 Let’s talk about money
For years, I worked as a financial planner. The irony? My life hasn’t unfolded according to plan—not by a long shot. And the resulting uncertainty has influenced how I think about, use, and manage my own money.
In this series, I’ll share what helped me navigate each chapter of my money story—everything that helped me move forward with resilience and flexibility, no matter where life took me.
💰 What you can expect from this series
In this letter, I wrote about my desire to spark conversation, sharing, and connection about money—not comparison. I hope you find something thought-provoking and resonant here, even if the plotlines of our money stories look wildly different.
