Listen Later

In this episode, Luis talks with Lauryn Williams, CFP®. Lauryn is a 4-time Olympian, 3-time Olympic medalist, and the first American woman to earn a medal in both the Summer and Winter Olympic Games.

 

While pursuing professional sports Lauryn interacted with not one but two financial advisors that didn’t provide the services she needed. She asked friends what they were doing about their finances and the answers were vague and unsettling. Constantly looking for ways to make a difference in the lives of others, she decided to put her Finance degree and MBA to use to fill the gap for young professionals. Eager to learn everything she then pursued the Certified Financial Planning certification.

 

Her company, Worth Winning, offers virtual services to help young professionals get the answers to the financial questions that matter most to them.
