The Blue Line Money Podcast

Have you ever wondered what other law enforcement couples do or even talk about when it comes to money?

Kristen and I cover many important money conversations to have with your LEO spouse, regardless of how hard it may be.

We also talk about her influence in the law enforcement spouse community and how she decided to be a source of humor for those who experience this lifestyle on a day to day basis.

Life insurance is something we all need, but it's also a topic that we tend to avoid because it requires us to take a look at our own mortality.

Regardless of how we feel about it, the truth is that we NEED it and it's important that we pick the right plan to put it in place.

This week's episode I chat with Holly Stull of First Responder Life Insurance. She talks about the importance of this type of policy for first responders and how to choose the right plan for you.

It's 2024 and that means many of us are starting to set resolutions and/or goals for the year. However, many of those goals will not come to fruition.

Not because we don't put in the effort, or because we don't want it, we just don't go into it with the right plan in place.

By the end of this episode, you'll have a roadmap to help you be successful with your goals in 2024.

Let's start talking about money. This is a judgement free zone designed to help you start to feel comfortable about one of the most stressful topics we face today...MONEY.

One of the biggest and most influential purchases we will make in our lives is buying our first home. And as a law enforcement (or other first responder) family, we want to trust the people we hire to guide us through this process.

That's where Zanna Wolfgang and Honor the Brave come in. In today's episode we talk with Zanna about how her and her husband started Honor the Brave after he medically retired from being a police officer. She shares all about the benefits that Honor the Brave offers to first responders when buying a home and some tips on how to approach your first home buying experience.

This episode will give you an idea of how to create a plan for cash-flowing Christmas, not just this year, but also for years to come. My goal is to give you the framework of how to plan and set your budget for the holidays, while also understanding the pitfalls you need to look out for that can often derail us and add unnecessary stress to this season of giving.

In this episode I have my first guest! My friend, mentor and business partner, Chris Harcksen-Lucero who is a flight paramedic and financial coach.

Chris and I have been working on a money workshop for first responder couples to learn how to have conversations about money without leading to an argument.

We talk about the importance of how & when to have these conversations as well as why these conversations are important.

Enjoy!

I spend a lot of time talking about money. The big problem? Most people don't want to talk about money. This is especially true for law enforcement and other first responders.

Why is that exactly? I think it generally stems from the fear of "not knowing". It's not knowing where our money is going. Not knowing if we're doing something wrong (or when we're doing something right). It's not knowing how to save, or how much to save. It's not knowing what we'll need to retire on comfortably or how we'll afford to send our kids to college.

All of this "not knowing" causes us to disassociate and claim the mantra: "I'll figure it out later". The problem with that reaction is that sometimes "later" will be too late to actually do something about the situtation...which is why many of us rely on debt and then on to the next.

In this episode I get frank and personal about my own money journey, in hopes that it gives others the space to feel comfortable to start talking about their own.
