Quotes from the show:
"I mean, you just have to be intentional. You cannot let stuff ride or hope that it'll all work out. As I say to people, there's no prince charming, there's no princess charming, there's just no charming. There's you. You're the CEO of your life. So just be your own CEO, even if you have a partner...You have to be CEO of your life."
"I really think that women, because of the narrative, the historical narrative of how we have often not been talked to by our parents and our elders about money, we are behind the eight ball, and then there's still the lack of gender parody. There's a lot of things that we have to overcome. We're the caregivers, yet we're still trying to work. It's the old saying that I think is awesome, "Women are expected to work like they don't have kids and be moms like they don't work." So the expectation for women in their lives is so high."
"My first and most important piece of advice to any woman is do not live in denial. Ignorance is not bliss, and your partner isn't your financial plan...So the first thing is you've got to have eyes wide open and not be afraid to get the facts of your own personal life."
"So I like this idea of being a financial athlete, but it's baby steps. It's like you just have to give yourself the grace. You might screw up and you might incur some credit card debt along the way because something happens. Okay, you did it, but now you know you have to fix it."
