So Money nation, it’s party time!!

The podcast has officially surpassed 5 million downloads!!!!

First I was like…

Then it hit me. This is real.

Then it really sunk in.

And of course, I’ve been having some of these to celebrate.

It’s been an intense, fun, happy, cosmic journey since launching at the start of 2015. And rest assured, there will be more to come in 2018.

I had NO idea where the show would take us, but it has been by far the best way to connect with you, learn from you and geek out about my favorite topic.

So Money has been a constant source of inspiration. Some highlights:

You don’t get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate. [Just ask Tim Gunn who didn’t get paid at first for starring in Project Runway. True story.]
You can lose everything. EVERYTHING. And come back stronger, better, richer.  [ Like that time fitness guru Natalie Jill  had got divorced , entered $1.4 million in debt, fell into depression, gained 100 pounds and then crushed it as a fitness entrepreneur, earning millions.]
Everybody’s rich as long as they have access to a few certain things. And money isn’t necessarily one of them, says speaker and author Seth Godin.
It may sound crazy, but you can save over 50% of your income, says this couple that retired early.

Cheers to all my guests for encouraging us to reach higher…and to YOU for helping us arrive at this incredible milestone!

Also in the amazing-news category, I’m thrilled to announce my new partnership with Citizens Bank to help promote literacy around investing and retirement planning.

Earlier this fall Citizens Bank launched SpeciFi, a digital investment and advisory platform that aims to make investing simpler, more efficient and cost-friendly.

What I love most about SpeciFi is that it’s not just your average digital investment platform. It’s a hybrid service that provides the efficiency of technology WITH invaluable access to financial advisors for one-on-one consultations.

As part of our partnership, John Bahnken, President, Citizens Bank Wealth Management, joined me for a special bonus podcast episode.  We talk about how our emotions can cloud financial judgement and the ways technology can help us gain confidence as investors.

As always, THANK YOU. I’m forever indebted to you for your support. [And that’s the BEST kind of debt in my book.]

My Whirlwind Week (+ Pics!)

One of the best pieces of #SoMoney advice I ever received (and that I probably have shared countless times) is that there are TWO ways to make money.

1. Make money from what you do.

2. Make money from what you know.

Last week I was able to dedicate time to #2 on that list, my passion project of late called Book to Brand.

 

 

If you’re new to my community or not sure what I’m talking about, Book to Brand is a small workshop that teaches thought leaders, entrepreneurs and experts on how to publish a top book and leverage the book and their authority to become highly sought-after speakers, brand partners and media experts.

The #1 question I’ve gotten in recent years is not “How do I squash my debt?”

It’s “Farnoosh, how did you get to where you are today?”

And that’s when I started to think I might have something special to teach. Fast forward to today and Book to Brand is approaching its second year, with demand to host multiple workshops each year.

That’s right. We SOLD OUT Book to Brand in New York City with an outstanding group of individuals: experts from the worlds of business, stage performance, home organization, elder care, personal finance and more.

If you’re thinking, “I WANT IN!” Let’s talk. Book to Brand returns MAY 2018 and spots are already filling up just through word of mouth.

If you or someone you know may be interested in participating, head over to booktobrand.co and fill out an application.

As if hosting a two-day, all-day workshop wasn’t enough, I also decided to get on a plane headed for Dallas later that week.

But I couldn’t NOT. It was for FinCon 2017 and I was there to give a keynote with friend, multiple New York Times bestselling author and So Money guest David Bach.

My talk: Why earning more money should not be a goal. It should be a PRIORITY. (#Thingsthamakeyougohmmm)

Alrighty. Time to sleep.

Just kidding. I have two kids under 3.5. #i’llsleepwhenthey’reincollege

Finding My Voice with Man Repeller

When Man Repeller asks if they can dress you up in footwear designer Tamara Mellon’s shoes, while talking podcasts, you say yes. Spilling on how I’ve found my voice as a female podcaster, the most difficult So Money episode I’ve produced to date and my advice for starting a podcast.
