Are you feeling overwhelmed trying to balance motherhood, work, and your dream of entrepreneurship? In this episode, I chat with Fo Alexander, a three-time author and financial educator, who shares her inspiring journey from a well-paid engineering career to building her own business and wealth as a mom.

We talk about practical steps for paying off debt, creating your own economy, and the mindset shifts needed to confidently step into entrepreneurship.

Key Takeaways:

  • How to make a strategic exit plan from your corporate job and align it with your family goals
  • The first steps to become financially free and start building wealth as a mom
  • Why overcoming fear and perfectionism is crucial to launching and growing your business

About Guest

With her book, Dump Debt & Build Bank, being named a top 10 personal finance book for Black women by 21Ninety, Fo has been helping moms transform their bank accounts & businesses for the past 12 years.

She is the founder of Mama & Money— a financial education for women— and The Monetized Mom—an online education & coaching company.

After becoming debt-free, Fo left her decade-long career as an engineer to pursue full-time entrepreneurship and motherhood. And, today, her mission is to empower other moms to create their own economies through entrepreneurship & financial stewardship.

She is a 3-time author, Certified Financial Educator (CFEI), digital marketing & personal branding strategist, business coach, podcaster, and speaker. Her media features include US News & World Report, Parents, Bankrate, Buzzfeed, and many more!

Of all her accomplishments, though, her most notable is being a devoted wife and mom of two.
