Hey, what's good? This is Rich and you're listening to Paychecks and Balances.

Where it's about the intersection of work, money, and life.

So whether you're trying to get out of debt or into a new job, P&B has you covered.

This week, I'm closing out Financial literacy month and teeing up mental health

awareness month with a friend of the show that also believes friendship is essential to the soul.

And Stephen Hughes is a financial educator, Reiki practitioner, and curriculum designer that

specializes in creating clarity around your money. And this frat brother of mine has taught thousands

how to realize their money goals,

and he's going to help thousands more,

and hopefully he helps you today.

Stephen last joined the show on PB-13

for a great discussion on getting financially organized,

so definitely go back and check that out.

And if you normally listen to the podcast, you

know, I tries to keep the audio fresh. But for some reason, it got weird on my side and I don't

sound like I do now. I'll see what went down and we'll get that fixed for next time.

Anyways, here's my conversation with Stephen M. Hughes and I hope you enjoy.

Yo, Stephen, welcome back to the podcast, man.

Thanks for having me, man.

It feels like it's been a couple of years.

I think it has been a couple of years at this point, or at least it feels like that way, for sure.

And I know the last time you're on the show was a super popular episode on establishing some of the financial fundamentals.
