Becoming Financial Wise with Brittney Castro
I'm thrilled to have on the show today Brittney Castro. Britney and I recently formed a partnership of sorts, and I'm just excited to share her journey. For those of you that don't know Brittany, she's an amazing woman. Brittany and I met a couple years ago. We've stayed in touch here and there but when she decided that she wanted to change the direction of her career... Yes, financial planners do that too. She and I started talking about ways that we could work together. She's been noted as a final financial expert and “go to” resource for national media outlets like CNN, CNBC, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, CBS and many more! Notably, Brittney has recently been elected one of the “40 under 40 in 2020” by Investment News as one of the 22 women to watch!
