Do you believe in karma?

Absolutely I do! Karma is real and it’s not always negative as some people think. “What goes around comes around” applies to everything!! Both positive and negative!

How does your mindset affect your financial success?

When I am in a negative headspace, it’s easy for me to spiral and be in a lack mentality. When I’m like this I’m usually overwhelmed and feel guilty for any fun spending I’ve done in the recent past.

On the contrary, when I am in a good headspace, it’s easier to see how we are moving towards our goals and I feel less overwhelmed looking at our budget. I see how we’re still having fun while reaching certain goals and I feel overall better about our finances.

I feel like mindset really does matter when it comes to finances.

If your pet could talk, what would be the first thing it says?

Deacon: “Why do you leave me every morning when I just want to snuggle? HOW DARE YOU!”

Mushu: “I purposely vomit when I can see the bottom of my bowl. Also, I wish you’d feed me plastic bags.”

Sky: “Can I have more soft food???”

What’s the weirdest coincidence you’ve ever experienced?

I will always remember driving to breakfast with my husband (boyfriend at the time) and I saw a license plate in front of us that had “CJ 111.” Quick context: his name starts with C, mine starts with J, and I am obsessed with angel numbers. When I saw the license plate I looked at him and said “oh look!! CJ 111! that means new beginnings!!!”

He smiled and just kept driving (he is a logical man who doesn’t care about angel numbers LOL). Maybe 45 minutes after this happened, we’re sitting and breakfast and THIS MAN HAD A RING IN MY MIMOSA!! So we got engaged, and of course I’m like “OMG TALK ABOUT A NEW BEGINNING!” meanwhile he literally had already forgotten about the license plate we saw and it never even clicked to him because he doesn’t believe in woo woo shit LMFAO.

Share a hobby you’ve picked up recently — what got you into it?

I recently got into diamond art within the last couple years thanks to one of my close friends! At first I was so overwhelmed looking at the canvases of numbers and letters, but it’s actually so relaxing and satisfying to work on!

How did you meet your significant other?

High school! We’re very blessed that we have been able to grow together throughout the years- we will celebrate 15 years together (2 married) in October!

Share a photo of your pet and tell us one thing that makes them uniquely them.

This is Sky and she loooveeeesss laying on shoes

What’s a thing you wish schools actually taught?

I wish they taught more financial literacy and how to build generational wealth- considering we are a capitalistic society in America. The amount of adults who don’t even know how their credit card interest works is ridiculous and keeps people crippled in debt.

If your future self could send you one sentence, what do you hope it would say?

“It all worked out way better than you thought it would.” ✨💫🫶🏼
