We sit down with Yanely Espinal, a Brown University graduate, Brooklyn native and trailblazer who's making personal finance engaging and accessible. As the first college graduate in her family, Yanely realized the stark absence of financial education in her academic journey. This revelation led her on a mission to empower young individuals with the financial knowledge they need to succeed.

Yanely's remarkable career journey took her from Teach For America to creating a YouTube channel, where she breaks down budgeting, credit management, savings, investments, and more. She serves as the Director of Educational Outreach at Next Gen Personal Finance and contributes her expertise to CNBC's Financial Wellness Advisory Council.

Join us as we explore Yanely's inspiring story as a first-generation achiever, her transformative understanding of money psychology, and the profound wisdom found in her book, "Mind Your Money," filled with stories and strategies to guide you on your financial journey. Join us as we dissect our own spending habits, taking on Suze Orman's "90 Days of Spending Habits" challenge and gain valuable insights from the concepts and tips shared in her book.
