    219. Which Investing Platform Should I Choose? Advisor vs. Robo-Investor vs. DIY
    Mar 13 2025
    Investing your money is one of the most powerful ways to build wealth—but before you even buy your first stock, you’re faced with one of the biggest questions: Which investing platform should you choose? Should you go with a financial advisor? Trust a robo-advisor to do the work for you? Or should you DIY your investments through an all-in-one platform? Each option has its own set of pros, cons, and hidden pitfalls—and I’m breaking it all down for you in this episode. Today, I’ll walk you through the three main investing routes, expose the sneaky fees that could cost you thousands (or even hundreds of thousands) over time, and help you decide which option is the best fit for you. Plus, I’ll share my personal recommendations, including the platform I don’t recommend for most people. Stick around to the end, and I’ll give you my favorite tool for getting started—without the stress, confusion, or financial bro jargon.

  • 218. Grief, Loneliness, and Community: Life After Loss with Carla Fernandez

    218. Grief, Loneliness, and Community: Life After Loss with Carla Fernandez
    Mar 10 2025
    Grief is something we all experience, yet no one really prepares us for how to handle it—or how to support others going through it. And here’s the thing: grief isn’t just about losing a loved one. It can come from a breakup, losing a job, or even mourning the life you thought you’d have. In today’s episode, I sit down with Carla Fernandez, co-founder of The Dinner Party and author of Renegade Grief: A Guide to the Wild Ride of Life After Loss, to talk about what grief really looks like, why loneliness makes it harder, and how we can build stronger communities to support ourselves and others through loss. We also dive into something that doesn’t get talked about enough—the financial impact of grief—and why having a plan in place is one of the greatest acts of love you can give your family. This conversation is honest, raw, and surprisingly hopeful. Carla’s insights will shift the way you think about grief, loneliness, and community care, whether you’re navigating loss yourself or supporting someone who is.

  • 217. Recovering Financially After Divorce (What We WISH We Knew Before Getting Married) with Kristin Sweeting

    217. Recovering Financially After Divorce (What We WISH We Knew Before Getting Married) with Kristin Sweeting
    Mar 3 2025
    Divorce can be one of the most emotionally and financially challenging experiences of a person’s life. And yet––so many of us walk into marriage without truly understanding the financial implications of merging (and potentially untangling) our lives. In this episode, I sit down with photographer, entrepreneur, and coach Kristin Sweeting, who openly shares her story of getting divorced at 29, the financial mistakes she made, and how she rebuilt her wealth from the ground up. We’re talking about everything from the hidden costs of divorce to why prenups should be a standard practice—and the crucial financial steps every person should take before (and during) marriage. Whether you're married, single, or somewhere in between, this episode is packed with financial lessons.

Great to hear a womans experience in finance

Loved it. The homework helped me clarify some priorities. Loved that racism and privilege was discussed more than just a passing remark.

4 episodes in & im hooked

Love this podcast! Im a recently Accounting Grad & I’m currently a bookkeeper @ a cpa firm & always struggle with feeling like I don’t know enough even though I realize I am privileged to know what I do. I aspire to be in a position to give others the knowledge as this podcast does. I just finished episode 4 and really enjoy the acknowledgment of privilege & aspiring to be better! I just downloaded Tiffany’s book on Audible so I’m excited to listen!

Amazing!

I love how REAL Tori is. I wish I knew at least half of what she does in saving money. But thanks to her tips I can prepare myself. Thank you Tori! Keep up the girl power!

Changed the way I view money

I follow Tori’s podcast and finally decided to read the book. A lot is covered in the podcast but the book altogether is very insightful. Definitely changed the way I view money. And having an interactive portion was helpful for me. Definitely recommend for anyone who has money goals they want to reach. Will be reading it again!
