Show Notes

This week’s guest is Naseema McElroy, a labor and delivery nurse who is also a personal finance educator.

Hear about Naseema’s experience with her divorce, and how she pursued her goal of financial freedom. Naseema learned about personal finance by immersing herself in books and podcasts, and now teaches others how to improve their finances and work toward financial independence.

She doesn’t just talk the talk, Naseema also walks the walk. She was financially devastated after her divorce, but has worked to grow her net worth and create financial stability for herself and her three little girls.

We talk not only about coming back from financial setbacks, but also protecting your finances as you go into marriage. Budgeting isn’t sexy, but it’s an important part of getting your money under control. And Naseema shares with us her top secret for improving your finances, and it’s not cutting out the fun things you like such as the fancy coffee or eating out.
