About this episode

Scarlett Cochran has lived the struggle and overcome it. Today she shares not only how to shrug off all of the self-doubt and short-term setbacks...she also shares her framing of money discussions in general. Life is about more than "the Benjamins" and she'll show you today how to break through with your financial game.

In our headlines segment, we high-five (virtually, of course), Gen Z, who one survey says is killin' it with their savings game. We'll share the highlights and dive into what you can learn if you are just beginning or are struggling to invest.

Of course, that's not all. We also throw out the Haven Life line to a lucky listener and share Doug's mouth-watering trivia.

Deeper dives with curated links, topics, and discussions are in our newsletter, The 201, available at StackingBenjamins.com/201.
