Money impacts everyone on a daily basis, yet many people feel disconnected, especially when it comes to spending and savings habits. The truth is that every decision you make, including every purchase, does impact your overall budget and savings. So, how can we change our spending habits to be more aligned with our long-term goals? In this episode, Kathy Kasten, Founder and CEO of Lion Crest Leadership, will be joining the show to share the conscious choices she has made that have led to her ability to live a financially free life—and how you can do the same.
Listen in as Kathy explains the importance of living within your means, finding ways to save money, and ensuring you are saving for retirement as soon as possible. You will learn the benefit of focusing on what truly matters in your life, such as family and loved ones rather than money or success. Finally, Kathy describes the lessons she learned throughout the many different jobs she has had over the years.
