How do you measure success?  In this episode, Camille welcomes Melea Johnson who is an American YouTube personality and author. Her YouTube channel, The Melea Show, offers her audience shopping tips and financial advice. Apart from being a YouTuber, she also does blogging. In 2009, she founded her company Freebies2Deals directed towards saving money. It quickly grew to be one of the largest money-saving and deal blogs in the United States until it was sold to a new owner in 2016. 

"I never would have thought it would have ended up like that. No one knew you could make money through blogging." - Melea Johnson

Melea has been featured in and on a variety of media outlets including The Rachel Ray Show, Today, Forbes, YAHOO!, Daily Finance, Women’s FIRST Magazine, Working Mother Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Consumer’s Digest, US News, The Food Network & Hallmark’s Home & Family to name a few. Despite the accolades, Melea helps others save money and create financial freedom to live the life they want.

"I may not be as successful as I would like to be, like, I'm okay with where I'm at right now because you need the balance, you need to have all cups full in the different aspects of your life. So that's where I'm at right now." - Melea Johnson

In this episode, we will talk about Melea's journey of creating her business and what she learned along the way.  She will be giving us tips on creating and saving money, taking care of ourselves as a woman, a mother, and a wife, and ultimately deciding to scale back and create a balance.

"I realized that I needed to step back and be okay with good money working part-time, still being a full mom, still taking care of me and putting me first so I could be happy too, and it's honestly a constant, constant balance." - Melea Johnson

Tune in to know more about creating more money through blogging, YouTube, and at the same time prioritizing your health. We also have a second episode right after this to tell you about what you need to know about Black Friday and how you can save the most money right now.
