She takes personal finance personally. Overwhelmed and ignored by traditional advice as a young woman of color, she taught herself not just to talk the talk. She walks the walk, having paid off over $300,000 of debt in three years and is on track to retire in her forties.

Dubbed her "magic recipe" by Good Morning America, she also shares her trademarked five-step Crush Your Money Goals® method as a contributor for CNBC, TIME, and multiple TV and podcast shows.

While she has over a decade of Fortune 100 experience, two bachelors, a masters degree and numerous certifications, she's known more for her refreshing energy, engaging style and relatable messaging.

When she’s not teaching, find her singing karaoke, delving into DIY projects, and eating way too much chocolate with her husband AJ.

In this classic podcast episode, Naseema McElroy and Leisa Peterson discuss the topic of turning crisis into potentiality, which will be timely with the sad news of the student debt relief not pushing through the Supreme Court. Although we're focusing on how it relates to nurses and the stages of grief they may experience, you might find our discussion very applicable to the current emotional difficulties people may be going through in their finance.

We emphasize the importance of allowing oneself to feel sadness, hurt, and fear during challenging times, while also providing effective ways to deal with each stage of grief. Use these emotions as opportunities for personal growth and self-mastery, with high regard in self-care and protecting oneself emotionally and physically without overreacting. We also discuss the potential for nurses to explore new opportunities and reflect on their own desires and passions during this crisis.
