In this episode, we talk money management and financial literacy with Alia Kherani - a licensed mortgage agent, blogger and self-starter when it comes to handling personal debt.

Breakdown of tips mentioned:

  1. Be honest about your financial situation with yourself.
  2. Surround yourself with financially like-minded people.
  3. It’s never too late to start but you need to start!
  4. Changing spending habits can take time, so start small.
  5. Learn from experts in the field - they are aplenty! Try YouTube or a podcast.
  6. Find a method of holding yourself accountable.
  7. Ignorance is not bliss. Stay involved in your own finances.
  8. Change your social media feed to surround yourself with new opportunities to learn. Follow finance gurus on Instagram if you’re on it anyways!
