As a financial literacy educator and advocate, Tess wants every woman to know it’s easy to become rich, happy, and free, it just takes a little feminine confidence, self-trust, and the wherewithal to pay yourself first.

During this episode Tess and I talk about the fact that building trust is about creating credibility from the ground up. To get the people who don’t have a direct line to you to trust you personally, start from the bottom up. We discussed the fact that she questions whether or not her podcast is enough publicity for her or if she needs to do more and we discussed some ways she can reach out to the media to raise her visibility.

What’s your end goal?
