Kristin’s story is one many women can relate to. Raised in a home where money was kept behind adult conversations, she entered adulthood without much financial guidance. That gap became especially clear in her mid-20s when she faced the loss of her mother, early marriage, and major financial responsibilities all at once.

What followed was a season of learning through experience as she navigated grief, inheritance, debt, and early career changes while trying to find her footing. Over time, she moved into financial services and eventually built her own business, seeking both flexibility for her family and greater control over her financial life.

In this episode, we explore her journey from feeling overwhelmed and uncertain to building confidence as both a business owner and mother, and the intentional way she is now shaping her family’s relationship with money.
