In today’s episode, we’re going to be covering body, badass, and business all in one integrated topic. This is a topic that is critical to us as women and entrepreneurs who want to have an impact in this world — money. In particular, we are talking about our own personal management of money; how to start with that, how to lean into it, and why it’s one of the most critical things we will decide to take ownership of in our entire lives.
For far too long — despite us identifying as entrepreneurs and having our own businesses — far too many women are outsourcing the management of their finances to someone else in their family. So today, we’re talking about taking back and reclaiming that element of our wealth, our health, our business, and our personal empowerment.
Joining me in this conversation is my longtime friend, Jackie Porter. As a financial planner and a certified financial manager, she shares her important perspective as we delve into why managing money and leaning into the finances of our family is as much a feminist issue as it is about planning for our future; it’s a matter of self-worth and absolute importance.

BADASS FUEL — Fuel for Badass Women
Scientifically Supported Ingredients | Support, Not Replacement | Non-GMO
Two years ago, someone asked me what supplements I take to maintain my health, energy, and edge — and they were surprised that I only took four things consistently. For myself and my patients, there are four basics that support — at a foundational level — nearly every system in our bodies. In my quest for the highest quality ingredients and the easiest system for consistently incorporating supplementation to my routine, I formulated and manufactured my own line of foundational supplements. Trusted for myself and my patients, and under the guidance of your own healthcare provider, I’m excited to invite you to check out our foundational product line: Badass Basics. Learn more or order the products yourself by visiting BadassFuel.com!
