EmpowerYou Financial

For some people, struggling to walk through the door of opportunity is less about the door being open and more about whether or not we feel invited. Some of us are stuck on the outside looking in because we are waiting on permission. We want to be inside, we want more for ourselves but we aren't sure if we are deserving. Whether it be because of how we were raised or the stories we have told ourselves, some of us can't see that the thing we want so badly is literally right in front of us -- we just have to grab it. As we continue to improve our personal finances and personal credit, we need to let go of limiting beliefs about ourselves and get everything that belongs to us because... we deserve it. Listen in as Eva and two amazing Lions, Jessica and Jiggy, share their stories of how they were introduced to money and finances and how their understanding has evolved into where they are now...

Financial Freedom Friday | Building Business Credit

Listener Perks: 

How do you feel about having a large sum of money in a savings account? Does it make you proud, happy, or frustrated? Most people would definitely not say frustrated. However, when you consider the fact that the bank gives you a very small percentage of interest in your savings account while other investment vehicles pay considerably more in interest, it makes you wonder (and possibly frustrated). Think about it, if the money sitting in an account can earn 6% interest vs 0.05%, most people would much rather the 6%. However, that 6% option is not always readily available to everyday people. We would have to look for it. It is this type of mindset shift around money that are necessary along the journey of improving our personal finances and personal credit. Listen in as Eva shares why a mindset shift is so needed and why having the right mindset is a required wealth building tool...

Whether it be purchasing or refinancing, there's a strategic way to win at the car game. Often times we just think about whether or not we can afford the payment and feel that affording the payment each month means that we are winning. However, there is so much more to consider like: negotiating the vehicle to its lowest cost, locking in the lowest interest with the best terms, and making payments in a strategic way that minimizes the amount of total interest paid. Additionally, when it's time to refinance, being strategic around when to refinance to either increase your monthly cashflow or to once again minimize the amount of total interest paid while paying off the vehicle. Listen in as Eva shares her ways to win at the car game and how she leverages these wins to level up in other areas...

Financial Freedom Friday | Be Your Own Stimulus

Listener Perks: 

Many folks underestimate the power of their personal and professional networks. As we wake each day and just live our lives, we often don't truly think about who we are hanging around and how those relationships impact us. There's a saying that goes, "Tell me with whom you associate, and I will tell you who you are." So, if you are looking to level up, you need to hang out with people who are doing what you want to do and living how you want to live. Listen in as two guests, Nakisha and Clara, from our Lions Club share their stories of how they met Eva and how the relationship they have built with her has impacted their lives. Eva also shares why she believes so strongly in the power of networking...

Financial Freedom Friday | Creating A Living Trust

Listener Perks: 

When good things happen to you, do you believe it was just a random occurrence, a stroke of luck, or an intentional string of choices and actions? Too often, when we look at our personal credit, we bury our head in the sand and hope that one day our credit score will just magically change. Since we may not fully understand how or why our score got to be where it is, we believe that this random score may also randomly increase. But, that can't be further from the truth. Listen in as two guests, Lucy and Enedina, from our Lions Club share their stories of being intentional with their credit and finances and why Eva believes we have to do things on purpose to see the changes we are looking for...
