In this season finale, we’re going to dig deeper into the idea of what it means to go back to a job after taking a stab at entrepreneurship. How can someone accept the fact that they’ve “failed”, how does one deal with a bruised ego, and well, is it really the end of the world?…
Hello! I’m Sarah – a finance writer and soon-to-be-financial counselor. I once spent thousands of dollars buying Pez dispensers and vinyl records only to impress people (and sold them at a steep discount cause I was so ashamed about my ish in my early twenties). I also got into debt and felt like a total failure when it came to every financial decision. That’s when I quickly realized there wasn’t a space to chat about the emotional aspects of money – especially when it comes to how it affects our entire lives.
I’ve cried. I’ve laughed. I’ve finally learned it’s not about the numbers, but how we trust ourselves and the ability to ask for what we want. Most importantly, I’m still figuring all this out alongside you.
