Girlfriends, episode number 189, personal finance how-toes with Victoria Sechrist.

Hello and welcome to girlfriends. I'm Danielle Bean. I'm a wife and a mom and I'm on a mission to help you know your worth as a woman so you can find peace, balance, and joy and family living. This week,

we are talking with a financial planning expert who's going to help us work through some of those

personal finance how-toes. I know you have questions I sure do. Can't wait to get started on

this important show.

Hey, girlfriends. How are you? Thanks for showing up. Thank you for being a part of this episode of the Girlfriends podcast. I am excited to have a financial expert to come on this week because we have

shout out to our

Facebook group. If you want to join, go to facebook.com slash groups slash girlfriends podcast. We'd love to

have you join our closed private group there. It's a good way for us to connect outside of the podcast.

But sometimes on there, I'll ask people for, you know, ideas for what topics they want us to take up.

And it never fails to come up that people want us to talk about personal finances. They want to know some

basics about budgeting. And for sure, we've taken up this topic on the show before. But I don't

feel like I am an expert in this field at all. I mean, I can share what we do and what works for us.

But for the most part, I feel like I am

outside of my comfort zone when talking about finances. So I was thrilled to hear from Victoria

and that she was willing to come on this show. So excited to share that with you in just a moment.

But before we get to that, I just want to do one of our health and fitness check-ins. We do

this regularly here. I just want to nudge you a little bit. Are you thinking about

ways in which to keep yourself physically healthy? In what ways are you doing that this fall?

What's your program? What's your plan? What's your idea? What are you doing to move your body

throughout the day? What are you doing to eat in a healthy way? I just put these in here on a regular basis as a reminder for myself
