Gemma Bird is the queen of saving money and balances home life and work life with a simple philosophy. It was great to sit down with such a positive, smart and ever confident Mama Bear talking the fundamentals of acquiring money... saving money! Trust me when I say, I am the worse at saving money and I am all ears for Gemma's advice in this Bizzimumzi chat. In this episode Gemma opens up about not having it all growing up and that savy upbringing has paved the way for her successful career. We have a little giggle about our LA Gear obsession from back in the day and the ways she saved up for those iconic pieces. She shares even the smallest amount putting aside weekly can help chip away at debt, buy that new hand bag or even start that savingings account for your kids. The Bizzimumzi Podcast is brought to you by coffee-infused host Ashley Verma. She created this podcast to share her ups, downs and all arounds of being a mom, owning a successful business and truly managing being an un-single single mom, attempting to balance all aspects of family life! Each week Ashley will be joined by a fellow inspiring, thriving and surviving Bizzimumzi - who will share their own journey. This podcast is your weekly opportunity to take a deep breath as we try to navigate the wild world of parenting; think of this podcast as the safe space where we are not too hard on ourselves, we share our humility and relish in overcoming the inevitable failures that simply happen. This is a show for those Mom’s that are not trying to be shiny and filtered. This is a podcast for those who are unapologetically, at their best and worst, Bizzimumzi’s! We love hearing from you!
