Let me guess…
If you could hop in a time machine and visit your younger self, there’s at least one money decision you’d beg her not to make.
(Probably more than one. It’s fine. We don’t judge here.)
If that’s you, welcome to the club. We ALL make money mistakes. Some of them are small. Some of them are expensive. And some of them still make us cringe when we think about them.
For example, here are a few financial lessons I learned the hard way:
- I didn’t have an emergency fund and almost went completely broke after getting a flat tire during an internship in Atlanta. One pothole nearly ended my financial life.
- I took out a car loan after college and paid hundreds of dollars in interest.
- I was offered a 401(k) with a match after the company I worked for was acquired…and I didn’t take it. Why? Because I didn’t understand how a 401(k) worked, what a “match” meant, and it all felt way too complicated. (Ugh!)
- And let’s not forget the time I loaned thousands of dollars to an ex-boyfriend and never saw that money again. 🤦🏼♀️
I could keep going—but you get the point.
Some money mistakes are just a bump in the road.
Others? They can quietly set you back years.
And if you’re in college, this matters more than you think.
This is the time where you:
- Build the money habits that shape your future
- Decide whether you’ll live with financial peace or constant financial pressure
- Make choices that impact your freedom, goals, and opportunities for years to come
The problem? Most young adults were never actually taught how to manage money.
So instead, they wing it. They make decisions that feel fine in the moment…and then deal with the stress, debt, and “I wish I would’ve known this sooner” moments later.
That’s exactly why I created a free video to help change that.
