Ep 12: You Have the Power to Change Your Financial Future

April was Financial Awareness month. Our theme for our April podcast episodes was MONEY!

The 2 financial coaches joining us for April's discussions, Ericka Young and Shehara Smallwood.

 

 

Shehara L. Smallwood is from Columbus, OH and graduated with a B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from The Ohio State University.  In 2004, she changed careers  to pursue her passion for helping others with their financial affairs. During her more than 12 year career, she worked with a global financial institution and a national broker dealer firm. In July 2016, she launched her fee-only fiduciary firm called, Your Story Financial, LLC, which allows her to provide unbiased financial advice. 

You don't have to be a victim to your past choices or your current circumstances. This episode will remind you that you can learn to be a better a money manager. It's empowering when you realize you do have options, even when your bank balance would say otherwise.

In this episode we discussed the concept of money buckets and why you shouldn't keep all of your money in one bucket. Shehara is great at explaining basic money concepts in plain English. She answers some questions from listeners around how to be more disciplined in handling your finances and what to do if your outflow is greater than your income.
