Episode 61 with Samantha Absher.
"I'd been labeled as lazy, underachieving and disorganized my entire life."
Sam Absher is a personal finance professional with a twist — she has borderline personality disorder & ADHD, and also has degrees in finance and risk management.
Sam uses her knowledge and experience to help fellow neurodivergent people learn how to manage their money, save and get out of debt without the shame and judgement of traditional finance professionals.
Sam & I talk all about the various difficulties adults with ADHD face when it comes to adulting and money management, and Sam also describes borderline personality disorder and how it differs from other common mood disorders in adults with ADHD.
She offers a ton of practical financial advice in a language we can understand. If you’ve ever struggled with budgeting and money management, you’ll definitely want to listen to this episode!
