    Bio

    Hi, I’m Barbara, writer of Tipped and owner and coach for Tipped Finance. I built a career in the Service Industry and throughout that time I made every financial mistake possible. I’m not a Stock Broker or Certified Financial Advisor, however I know what it’s like to live on a tipped income and dig out from under my own mistakes. I also know what it looks like to build real wealth and get very good with money. It doesn’t need to be complicated but it does require stick-to-it-ness.

    I used to do racoon rescue. I used to have baby racoons in my house.

    The girls and women in Iran. I’m a big advocate for women’s rights and I believe when women have more autonomy, more money, the world is a better place.

     

    3. What books are you reading now or have read and loved that you’d recommend?

    if you are in a relationship and you’ve got a spouse that cares about you, I would say take some time to sit down and dream with them. Sit with them and have some big conversations about are we headed in the direction that we want to be in? Are we doing things that will help our family go where we want to go? Are you working in a job that you like? Are you spending most of the hours in your day right now doing things that make you happy? If not, what can we do to take tangible steps to get where we want to go?

    I love to cook. And I don’t know if I told you, but I started my own business.  I’m starting a charcuterie cheese board business.

     

    2. Who inspires you the most and why?

    My mother. She came to this country not knowing the language, not knowing the culture, and being a single mom. I know how much mothers give up for their kids but I knew she gave up her friends,  culture and the language that she was comfortable with, and she came here kicking ass, taking names.

    1. What is one fun fact about you that not that many people know?

    I’ve done a lot of travel and out of college that was one of the things that I knew I wanted to do. I’ve traveled around the world and I got to do a trip where I flew from Chicago to Hong Kong, to Mumbai, to Frankfurt, and then back home.

     

    2. Who inspires you the most and why?

    My parents inspire me. They’ve always been really open about money and my dad’s approach is really great. He’s always willing to help, but doesn’t push his advice on me.
