Hey guys, it's Carly and this is Jade. Welcome to Mommy's Tell All.

Today we are talking to Mandy Woodruff. She's the co-host of the podcast Brown Ambition here on

Westwood One where she helps people save money by teaching them how to invest and make smart career

choices and she's also a mom and we can't wait to talk to her. I mean seriously, especially now

being a single mom, I have so many questions about financial planning for our children. I know

we've talked about that a lot, you and I Jade. Where do we invest? What do we do? Yeah. And like I

still, I feel I don't know. I don't know the answers. I honestly still think that these sort of things

should be taught in school. So we all have this resource tool belt. I've seen this meme before where

it was talking about how like we have these things in our head like what is the hypotenuse of

something whatever, you know, but then like right. Am I ever going to use that in real life

unless I'm like an engineer or something? No, you're not. But I need to know how to be financially

smart. Like everybody should. It doesn't make any sense. Not that I'm not that I'm like

harping on math. You know, we all need classes like that, but I'm saying I think this should also

be part of the curriculum. Oh, I totally agree. It's just like I feel like personally.

Financial planning should be included. Homeic where people learn how to like feed themselves

healthy meals and like take care of children and do all of these life skills. Like that should

also be not just like a, hey, I should take homeic as an elective. Like people should really know.

Yeah. And what a credit score is really. And how do you build it? And why do you need it? And

all those sort of things. So I don't know. I'm excited to talk to her and hear all of her advice,

especially for all of us like women out there who like you said or maybe doing things on your own

or even for me like I would love to learn even though like Tanner deals with the he deals with a

lot of our finances. Yeah, I still feel like it's just smart to always be savvy in that department.
