 I began my career in sales and trading. I was there for five years and about a year ago I left to run my own business. My main goal is to make healthy living approachable. I do that mainly through Instagram, but I also blog and then recently I started a podcast called Freckled Foodie and Friends. I just felt this sense of something had been untapped within me that I loved. Very excited to meet with Cameron and take her through this financial planning process and just help her streamline everything and get that simple strategy in place so she can execute on it. I'm so excited to meet with Brittany because from what I've seen of her is that she makes things very approachable and she seems to simplify the conversation. You can ask questions to like, oh, what type of insurance program are you on? Like, what benefits are you enrolling in? My biggest obstacle is assessing how I'm going to scale everything and also just typical things that people take for granted in the corporate world of benefits for a one case, retirement plans when you're working in a corporate job, you don't think about it. We look at cash flow, we look at savings, debt, retirement. Financials definitely played a large role in the decision I was making. Do I have enough money saved to take this loop of faith? So some of the short-term things that Cameron needs to focus on are getting her savings accounts open so the money is earning a little bit more interest while it just sits there. Reviewing all the insurance, she needs at this stage and then getting her 401k rollover into a new IRA so she has her own retirement savings going. After meeting Brittany, I felt the sense of calmness regarding my financials, which I would have never expected before going into the meeting. It was taking up a lot of brain space and she clarified everything, dumbed it down a little bit and made it an approachable topic. It's taken a lot of assessment of my current lifestyle. You know, what can I continue spending money on that is necessary and what can I put back on? Brittany has really helped me think about the big picture on really assessing my business and figuring out what aspects make the most money and how I can scale those. And instead of focusing on a bunch of little things, focusing my time on the ones that I can really grow the most. I also reminded her, like any situation, you can prep a lot, you can have the best plan, but also part of the journey is learning how to deal with those challenges or constant money situations that come up because I remember getting hit with a huge tax bill and I thought my life was over. The reality is, no, everybody has tax bills and you gotta figure out a way to cover that. Brittany's inspired me to look into my retirement savings that I can now manage on my own instead of relying on a big corporation and then also to dedicate more money into a high-yield savings account. When you're proud to say what you're doing, which I'm extremely proud now, that to me is how I would define success.
