Carrie Joy Grimes on How to Break Free from Financial Insecurity | EP 585
Financial security isn't just about numbers—it’s about emotions, security, and having control over your future. In this episode of Passion Struck, I bring you an insightful conversation from the Systems Catalyst podcast, featuring Carrie Joy Grimes (CJ), the founder of WorkMoney, a nonprofit dedicated to helping Americans save money, increase their financial stability, and build a better life.
With over 8.1 million members, WorkMoney is using collective strength to challenge economic insecurity and make financial well-being accessible for all. CJ shares why so many Americans are struggling to afford even a $1,000 emergency expense, what’s driving this crisis, and how we can take back control of our financial futures—without waiting for someone else to save us.
