This week we are excited to welcome Katy Chen Mazzara to Hot Marriage. Cool Parents! Katy is a certified financial coach, former journalist, award-winning documentary filmmaker, AND my former producer on the Bachelor!!! Now, Katy is helping creative, freedom seekers make MORE, worry less and achieve true financial freedom, so they can create the life of their dreams! We are spending LOTS of time today chatting about being on the Bachelor, what it's like behind the camera, and more!
