To celebrate, we're pulling back the curtain on year one of The Finance Girlies. The good. The The surprising. The bloopers. 🤪

Here's what we're sharing:

The real numbers (downloads, revenue, expenses — all of it)

Which episodes resonated most with you

The vulnerable stuff we're still figuring out

Our year 1 goals vs. reality

What’s in store for year 2

This isn't just a numbers episode. We’ve learned a lot building The Finance Girlies that we think applies to life beyond podcasting.

Lessons about showing up when you're scared.

Being okay with messing up.

Trusting that it gets better, even when the beginning feels hard.
