Listen Later

Today we're speaking with my friend, Brandi Smith. Brandi has such an inspiring story and talks about switching colleges, giving up a D1 basketball scholarship, and getting into Pharmacy School. Once at Pharmacy School, she realized this was not the path she wanted to take. Brandi course-corrected and taught herself how to code in just THREE MONTHS! She made it her business to submit 10-15 job applications per day for developer and scrum master roles. After receiving a job in IT making SIX FIGURES, she set out to achieve yet another goal: paying down $45,000 in debt. She's still soaring and learning how to trade with FOREX, but FOREX is a scam, right? She details how to make money in FOREX and ways to protect yourself from scammers. This episode is LOADED with great information and will leave you feeling inspired to go after what you've been dreaming. Let's get it!
