In this enlightening conversation, Tara sits down with educator and financial literacy advocate Emily Holthaus, founder of Raising Little Millionaires to explore one of the most impactful lessons parents can teach their children: how to manage money. Emily shares insights from her background in education and personal finance, offering a practical roadmap for parents who want to raise financially confident kids.

Together, Tara and Emily dive into the importance of modeling healthy money habits, having open and age-appropriate conversations about finances, and teaching kids to view money as a tool rather than a taboo. They discuss how families can use simple systems like the four-jar method to introduce budgeting, saving, spending, and giving, and why emotional regulation and self-esteem play a surprising role in financial decision-making.

Listeners will walk away with actionable tips for creating a family money mission statement, structuring allowances to build responsibility, and fostering lifelong financial literacy at home. Whether your child is earning their first dollar or saving for their first big purchase, this episode offers the tools and mindset to set them up for success.
