  • I feel more confident around money now

    This podcast has really helped me learn a lot about not finance in a way that is easy to understand. I am the type of person who like to not think about money because it stresses me out, but Dalene has really changed my opinions on this and makes money seem approachable. Thank you, Dalene!!
