Dr. Disha welcomes Sammi Sosa Norman, founder of Skate2Wealth, to discuss her inspiring journey from financial struggle to financial freedom. Growing up in a low-income household, Sammi witnessed firsthand the challenges of money management.

Despite accumulating over $150,000 in student loan debt and initially living paycheck-to-paycheck as a journalist, she managed to pay off her debt through side hustles and strategic investing.

Now, a full-time stock market trader, Sammi shares her approach to making finance accessible and fun. She breaks down complex concepts like growth vs. value stocks and explains her journey into teaching financial literacy.

Her goal? To help others, especially women and underrepresented groups, feel empowered to take charge of their financial futures.

Sammi Sosa Norman is the founder of Skate2Wealth, a financial literacy platform designed to make money management and investing accessible for everyone. With a background in journalism, Sammi has spent years uncovering stories and delivering news, but her own journey toward financial empowerment led her to shift careers.

Today, she is known as the “Investment Bestie” who offers easy-to-understand courses, workshops, and resources on stock trading and personal finance. Having overcome $150,000 in student loan debt herself, Sammi is passionate about teaching others how to achieve long-term financial success, break free from the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle, and build a future of wealth and independence.

When she’s not educating others on money, she can be found roller-skating around the Bay Area, promoting financial freedom one glide at a time.
