Hey Ba Fam! Mandi is riding solo this week and is joined by Jannese Torres. The ladies discuss community and the importance of connecting with people in person. Then, Jannese shares her views on home ownership and why she doesn’t care about expectations other people set for you. As a first-generation Latina, Jannese Torres, award-winning money expert, educator, and podcaster, knows these unique challenges well. She set out to pursue the traditional American Dream, becoming the first woman in her family to graduate from college, climb the corporate ladder, and secure the six-figure paycheck, only to find herself miserable and unfulfilled. She soon realized that everything she’d been taught about money and success wasn’t as it seemed. After discovering the true meaning of wealth, Torres resolved to pave her own path, leaving the life she was told she should want for one of entrepreneurship, autonomy, and financial freedom.
