Jamila Souffrant is the creator of the blog and podcast, Journey To Launch, where she teaches and inspires others how to eliminate debt, save money, and increase their net worth. The lessons she has learned through trial and error helped her family to save $169,000 in two years and be debt-free, and she is well on the way to becoming financially independent by the age of 40. Jamila is the resident financial expert on a weekly segment on News12 and has been featured in Money Magazine, TIME, Business Insider, Refinery29, CNBC, ESSENCE Magazine & CBS. She lives in Brooklyn, New York with her husband and three young children.

Jamila joins me today to share what inspired her to give up her well-paid corporate job and pivot her focus to working towards financial independence. She discusses the factors in her background that inspired her to be a savvy money manager and how she worked hard to buy a small condo in her early 20s, which ultimately started her on the path to building her own business. Jamila also shares the values of intentional spending and how you can prioritize your spending and saving to ensure that you’re both happy in the moment and happy in the future.

“Spend on what you value - there is no point in being miserable on this financial journey” - Jamila Souffrant
