Meet Farnoosh Torabi, a personal finance expert, 3-time author with her latest book called “When She Makes More,” and host of the popular So Money podcast.  Farnoosh isn’t your typical money expert with years working at a bank or managing other people’s portfolios. It was actually through a career in journalism, coupled with her first-hand experience of working her way out of thousands of dollars of debt, that helped her carve out a niche in personal finance—proof that we can all become experts without ivy league educations. In today’s episode, we talk about:

• What $30,000 debt really means

• Why every woman should focus on discovering her niche

• And why you shouldn’t settle for a Mr. Mom

Actress Autumn Reeser had her whole life planned out. Marriage, successful career, kids, and more. But then she was hit with a divorce, lack of emotional support, and even postpartum psychosis. Autumn’s vulnerability has led her to share that, until recently, her version of “having it all” definitely didn’t include room for messy moments. The result was that she was preoccupied with the idea of doing more, doing it perfectly, and of course, ignoring whatever wasn’t working—until the moment of meltdown came for her anyway. So, while this episode is less “career advice”, more life perspective, this episode covers how Autumn’s perfectly planned life transitioned into Plan B—or maybe even Plan D or E—and how her resilience has created a new version of herself.
