In this episode, we talk with Evelyn Dieppa about her journey from growing up in Cuba surrounded by scarcity to developing a healthier relationship with money over time. After immigrating to the U.S. at age 10, she experienced the comfort of having her basic needs met but also witnessed her family struggle with debt and bankruptcy.
Those early experiences shaped how she approached money as a young adult, working multiple jobs to graduate college debt free and support herself independently.
Evelyn shares the turning point that changed everything when she and her wife Isa read Rich Dad Poor Dad and began their real estate investing journey together. We also talk about gratitude, partnership, and what it looks like to grow your financial mindset step by step.
