Summary

Luvvie sits down with colleague and dear friend, Tiffany 'The Budgetnista' Aliche, as she shares her journey from teacher to becoming a leading figure in financial education. Tiffany discusses how the loss of her husband changed her, personally and professionally, and how 2023 was also her worst year of business. It all forced her to re-evaluate everything in her life, including how she learned to accept help and how she restructured her company post-loss. The conversation highlights her innovative strategies for financial success, the importance of personal boundaries, and the evolution of her leadership style, emphasizing the importance of relinquishing control and trusting her team, vulnerability, transparency, and community impact.
