Barbara Corcoran (think, Shark Tank) has an interesting life story. It wasn't all rainbows and roses for her initially. But she built something incredible anyway.

And she recently said this, which I totally agree with, "It’s never too late to reinvent yourself and start again. You can’t change your wiring, but you can repackage it. It’s time to welcome change!"

If you are wanting to repackage your financial wiring, raise your hand! Come join our private FB group, OwnYourFinances.

💳 You’ve got a 750 credit score… but are you really winning with money?

Let’s bust a myth: A high credit score doesn’t mean financial freedom. It just means you’ve played the system well.

👉 In my newest blog post, I break down: ✅ What your score really means
✅ What it’s not telling you (spoiler: a LOT)
✅ Why you can still be financially stressed with a “great” score
✅ And how to take control with tools like Debt Slayer

📖 Plus, I share insights from my book Own Your Finances, where I go deeper into managing debt, mindset, and taking your power back.

✨ If you’ve ever wondered why you still feel broke even with a solid score, this is a must-read.

I’ll never forget the day I realized I was financially “busy” but not financially smart. 😬

I had income, I had bills, I had goals… but I didn’t have a plan.

That’s why Financial Literacy Month is so near to my heart. 💛

Because once you start understanding money—how it works, how it flows, how to grow it—you stop surviving and start thriving.

Let April be your turning point.
👉 Comment “I’m ready” if this is your month to get financially strong.

Why Financial Independence Isn't Enough

How do you start making change? Here's 5 Keys, straight from Tony Robbins.

Feed your mind daily. Commit to reading 5 or 10 pages of a personal development book. Or industry related reading.

Feed and strengthen your body. It is amazing how much this impacts our day. I'm drinking Celery juice every morning now (sounds different, right?), but I am noticing an uptick in my energy levels. Plus it feeds all the cells of my body! I'm also getting up from my desk every hour and spending 10 minutes moving my body.

Find role models. You don't have to know them personally. You don't have to pay them for an hour of time. Instead - read their books, listen to their podcasts, or YouTubes.

Take massive action. This is the hardest one! It's easy to go slow. And it's easy to procrastinate. I fall victim to this. But when we shift into massive action, results come quicker, which inspires us to keep moving forward.

Give MORE than you expect to receive. We've heard this many times in our life. But it is true. And it does change your life. It changes your mindset, your outlook, and your heart!

Let me know - how many of these do you already do, or you are going to incorporate?

Don't forget...
When you're daydreaming...
BE SPECIFIC! 🎯

Where do you want to be? What do you want to be doing? Who do you want to be with? Who do you want to become?

I'm a big believer that if you aren't growing, your dying. And if we are growing...who are we trying to become? How do we want to show up in the world?

I'm not talking about becoming someone you aren't. But I am referring to stretching to become all that God created you to be. Who is that? I have asked myself that question many times!

Once you get your vision...get really SUPER clear. Be specific. Be able to close your eyes and picture it. Over 20 years ago, I used to dream of myself being a leader in my industry. I saw myself on stage at industry events. Y'all, this was such a clear vision that I used to dream about this in my sleep! In 2007 it became real. And I spoke from the stage for the next 5 years at events all across the U.S.

When you create a very specific vision for yourself, and your physiology embraces it and "feels" it... God starts working. Doors open. Opportunities come to you.

And I always figure, if I'm going to pray for things, visualize things, have faith for things... they might as well be big and bold.

Go For It!!!

Have you heard of the Rule of 72? It is the magical formula that tells you when your money, invested, will double. Here's how you get to the answer. Take the number 72 and divide it by your interest rate.

🧐If your rate is 3%, then 72 / 3 = ugh, 24 years
🙂If you are earning 7%, then 72 / 7 = 10 years
🚀If your rate is 10%, then 72 / 10 = 7.2 years

Interest plus time is a beautiful thing!

Check your numbers and let me know how you are doing!
