What was once a simple post of a vista snapshot, overlaid with a stylized filter, and captioned #travelphotography, has given way to an industry of travel influencers who make their living selling global experiences via social media. Nothing wrong with that on its own; but the dark side of this social media craze is that it has distorted reality, teaching many that travel is a luxury that they are not invited to enjoy.

To set the record straight, Money Glow Up host Tiffany Aliche spoke with Nomadness Travel Tribe and Nomadness TV founder Evita Robinson to teach you how to travel affordably and safely when most people feel like they can't travel at all. “People are doing everything for the 'gram. They're doing everything for the picture. It's about getting the expensive dress and the expensive bag and standing in front of that, you know, landmark that everybody wants. And it's actually doing detriment to some of the local communities,” she explained.

But there's hope! Robinson offers travel tips for a range of needs and comfortabilities, such as group travel, deal-finding digital products, and thinking local for more affordable adventures. The reason she won't let anyone feel discouraged is because of how essential she believes travel to be in a person's life: "Travel has become a conduit for us getting to know ourselves. So self-care is a huge part of it...travel's like, intense character development." Watch this week's episode to tap into your travel future.

When so much of communication is nonverbal, your wardrobe plays a huge role in that. On this episode of Money Glow Up, host Tiffany Aliche spoke with Harlem's Fashion Row CEO & Founder Brandice Daniel about how your workwear can help or hinder your career. She told Aliche that, "That means that you're speaking the moment you walk into a room. You're saying something, by the way, your posture is by your eye contact. By what you're wearing and how you feel and what you're wearing." If you're looking to signal to your bosses or a future workplace that you are a good candidate, let them judge the confidence that comes with wearing something that makes you feel good.

Daniel went on to also offer tangible tips to affordable and appropriate fashion—even with ways to avoid fast fashion. "If you want inexpensive fashion, I prefer for you to go thrifting and get it tailored than to shop fast fashion," she explained.

With 33 million small businesses in the US employing 46.4% of all private sector employees, entrepreneurs make up the backbone of American business. But is entrepreneurship all that it's cracked up to be? Does running a small business fast-track you to personal wealth? Do legacy entrepreneurs have it easy?

"The Budgetnista" Tiffany Aliche chats with Elegant Eyes Head of Business Growth and Operations Cabral Miller about his unique journey with entrepreneurship. As not only a child of a legacy business, but a grandchild as well, Miller has spent his whole life learning first-hand what it takes to make a small business succeed—and what it takes to fail.

Miller discussed how entrepreneurism is not a golden ticket to success. "It comes with a lot of blood, sweat, and tears. I remember days of sleeping in the store because I knew I had so much to do. I knew I didn't have anybody who I could afford to pay to do it. I remember weeks and months of no pay. Those are misconceptions of entrepreneurialism," Miller explained.

Having an unhealthy relationship with money could inhibit long-term personal wealth. You might feel as if being in debt means you can't have any fun, and that money should only go toward paying off bills. That is not only limiting, but unrealistic. Everything in life becomes about avoiding temptation, instead of looking at healthy and practical ways to spend and save. But there is hope...

"The Budgetnista" Tiffany Aliche sits down with financial therapist, Aja Evans, for a discussion where money meets mental health. Financial therapy combines advice and emotional support, helping people manage financial stress which negatively impacts their family, work, and all other aspects of their lives. Evans explains that "the thing about financial therapy is that it really doesn't matter how much money you make. Okay. Some people could be millionaires and they're doing great, but still have these feelings of financial trauma of, 'Oh my God, am I gonna make my bills? Is this gonna be okay? Can I provide for myself or my family?' And that stress really kind of shifts our perception of what is safe and what's not."
