Personal Finance Chats with Jeremy Schneider

As I sit on the balcony of my hotel room this morning, I have to stop and really soak it all in…. This is the by product of hard work and money. Without money I wouldn’t be able to stay in this room, fly to another country and enjoy an entire week away from work.  Making money isn’t always the issue or “problem” for most of us, it’s being financially RESPONSIBLE with the money we do make. That’s why this week’s episode we dive into everyone’s favorite topic - MONEY & FINANCES.  Don’t be scared…. (I used to be)  I had all kinds of “money stories” I told myself to keep me small and in scarcity and I had the front row seat on the over spenders bus. But that all changed when I decided to have a different relationship with money. One where I “paid” attention to it! Cared for it, looked after it, encouraged it to grow… that’s why when I heard Jeremy’s story I had to share him with you! His Ig page is perfect for those of us who needed simple clear visuals on what to do with our money! 

 

My guest’s name is Jeremy Schneider. He is a successful entrepreneur and personal finance expert. After starting an internet company in college and selling it at the age of 34 for over $5M and retiring at 36, Jeremy has dedicated his life to teaching personal finance. He founded Personal Finance Club, a community of champions of the individual investor who help further financial education. Jeremy likes playing beach volleyball and writing bios about himself in the third person. 

 

We dive into:

• Everyone’s secret shame
• The number one thing it all boils down to when building wealth
• Investing 
• How focus can lead to fortune
• Debt
• And so much more about the numbers you need to know…

 

This is your sign and your time to take control of your finances and set yourself up for financial success in the future. It’s not too late - as Jeremy says, “don’t let the fear of not being the perfect investor stop you from getting started.”

Building Community with Eva Machado

In this episode I had the honor to speak with Eva Machado of Purpose People Co. We had been planning this interview for a while now, but we made it happen and I am so excited about it. 

 

Eva started as a nurse. After working as a nurse for several years and seeing first hand how many exhausted nurses struggled to be fulfilled in their careers, Eva started to explore why.

She secured the LLC for Purpose People in June of 2019 before she ever knew she would launch the brand because she knew nurses needed a community and support.

 

Since her first product launch two years ago, Purpose People was the start of the place where nurses come to feel seen and heard in the highs and lows of their careers. The brand has since shipped thousands of orders, created free community resources and raised thousands of dollars to several causes. Our initiative to provide care packages to COVID nurses which got national media attention and was featured on Good Morning America.

 

She is on a mission to support nurses in the biggest way possible. Not only constantly coming up with the next tee design or inspiration that nurses need, but searching for the cause in need.

 

She likes to call their approach to generosity "cyclical giving". We give in seasons to different areas, as the current need is always changing. We love to adapt and show support where the greatest need is.

 

In this episode we talk about:

• Changing paths & Listing to your gut
• Mindset Shifts
• Growing a product business
• Going Deep & Giving Back
• The Comparison Trap
• Expansion & Coaching
• Money Mindset
