Kimberly Palmer writes, speaks and teaches about making smart money and life choices.

She's married and has two children, teaches a class on social media, has a full-time job as a writer/editor with AARP and has an Etsy shop. Her third book, "Smart Mom, Rich Mom: How to Build Wealth While Raising a Family" has just been released!

Kimberly takes a multi-generational approach to her work, honoring the wisdom of mothers of all ages. In this discussion she shares how a letter about money that her mother wrote to her when she was 21 inspired and informed her work. She also discusses:

• Juggling family, a job, a writing career, an Etsy shop, and teaching social media classes,
• Wisdom from her new book with advice for women at all stages of mothering,
• Pitching and winning her first book deal,
• Setting and tracking weekly, monthly, and yearly goals,
• The many possibilities for new empty-nesters,
• Giving an allowance,
• Teaching children about money,
• Reading The Beauty Myth by Naomi Wolf as a young teen, and
• The value of visiting the library.
