She got fired from her “safe” job after 17 years. Then she hiked the Inca Trail, discovered ADHD, and became a financial coach. (Not in that order.)

Sherry Andrews spent nearly two decades climbing the corporate ladder at a cheese packaging plant – no joke. She was loyal, reliable, and doing what she thought she was supposed to do. Then the company handed her a pink slip and a very abrupt identity crisis. Suddenly jobless, in shock, and forced to reevaluate everything, Sherry went on a literal trek (to Peru), got real about her finances, and built a whole new career that aligned with her brain and her values. In this conversation, she talks about the trauma of getting let go from the “safe” path, what she learned about money (and herself) after being diagnosed with ADHD, and how budgeting can be both empowering and fun – yes, fun. If your paycheck feels like a lifeline you hate holding onto, this one’s for you.
