In this powerful episode of From Middle Class to Millions, we’re diving deep into how to raise money-smart kids—even if you’re still learning how to manage money yourself. Inspired by real stories from my own childhood, my clients, and incredible moms I met at the Mom 2.0 Summit, this episode explores how to break generational cycles of financial stress and teach kids to build wealth from a young age.
I share how growing up in a household shaped by poverty and fear of financial risk impacted my own money mindset—and how I chose to shift that narrative with my kids. I discuss a relatable example from The Real Housewives of Atlanta, where Kenya Moore’s risky business move with her daughter's college fund highlights the importance of intentional money planning and focus.
