    Thank you!
    Love the content you all put out. The recent episode on affordable senior housing was sooo informative. Thanks for your vulnerability as well as information. It really got me thinking about my parents and my plan for retirement.

    Real people doing the real work
    I came upon your podcast after watching a YouTube video with the both of you and Household FI on the ChooseFI channel . It came across my feed even though it was 3 year old. Content is still relatable … I just listened to your episodes on brokerage accounts and ADHD. I really appreciated the info about brokerage accounts in terms I could understand . Kiersten thank you so much for being brave and vulnerable to share on the ADHD episode. I can relate to everything you said. I look forward to diving into more shows on you podcast!

    If you haven’t already, you should checkout Jessica Mccabe’s How to ADHD on IG or YouTube. She recently wrote a book too. She’s been a great help for me.

    Your favorite podcast’s favorite podcast!
    This is one of my top 3 podcasts about all things money (and it’s not 2 or 3). Listening to them makes me feel smarter. They present in a way that’s not overly technical or boring. Their information is digestible for all ages. As an avid follower, I like this show and content they put out on all platforms.

    Finally, nuanced money convos
    I’ve been a longtime FIRE follower. What Kiersten and Julien do better than most anyone is talk holistically about money. Money as part of your actual life. Most money gurus talk about money in a vacuum. Not these guys. They want to get into the mess and discuss how changes you make to your money impacts your relationships, your identity, your felt sense of purpose in life. Love this couple and this podcast.

    Thank you so much Kiersten and Julien! Keep up the great work that you do. Each week you inspire me to take my next step to financial independence all while making me laugh. You are not only helping me but the clients I serve as a Financial Counselor. You provide relevant information and inspiration that I pass on to my clients. I am honored to have met you during your book tour in Raleigh, NC.

    Finally, something relatable!
    I stumbled across this show after seeing @forbetterorworth recommend it via instagram. Wow! I am extremely thankful they did. This couple is welcoming, relatable, and engaging - while delivering complex topics in a way that anyone can understand. I guess they live up to the name of the show! I encourage you to subscribe and listen to the knowledge they’re dropping on this show. Keep up the great work!

    Well organized presentations on a wide range of personal finance topics for every stage of my knowledge acquisition and growth. Serious topics served up with a side of Kiersten’s charming humor and Julien’s dry wit. Rich and regular provide very helpful information with insightful comments.They’re my super-smart, out-of-state niece and nephew (in my head) who are kind and patient enough to say things plainly enough for their boomer auntie to understand.
  • Avidscifan
    Bogus People and podcast
    In episode 121 they actually said the increase in prices we are experiencing now is OUR Fault…the consumer. Anyone who knows a smidgen about Finance knows there are more factors that contribute to price increases. They basically told their audience (and everyone else) it’s solely our fault for the increased costs we are all experiencing. Plus, their episodes do not have updated information and most of the information is “surface” and/or incomplete as they don’t do their full research. These people are gas lighting the public as they really don’t give two cents if you learn what you need to know to meet your financial goals as long as their numbers allow them to be seen as “thought leaders” so they can get those advertising and speaking engagement fees. Their self-proclaimed title of “thought leaders” is egotistical and absolutely LAUGHABLE! There are more sincere podcasts available that truly understand the financial interests of their viewers and actually want their viewers to win. Don’t waste your time with these people.

    Julien and Kiersten address real life topics from an unbiased standpoint and offer ideas for application of various ideas. Their honesty and transparency provide a great example of how to pursue financial independence and navigate uncertain times while still making informed decisions. I’m so happy I found this podcast and their book!!!

    Informative and Entertaining
    I have listened to about 50 episodes and I’m impressed at the thoughtful research, professionalism and insights Julien and Kirsten give. They break complex concepts down so that people can take action to better their financial lives. You guys are the best black podcast couple out there among many. Keep up the awesome work!

    Answer to my prayers
    Oh mine! Thank you so much Kiersten and Julie for this episode. I am a first timer on here and now I am stuck ( in a good way). A friend just started dabbling into some kind of policy package sales and she was trying to sell some to me. She personally came over to my house to convince me. While I have filled out some forms, I have not given any form of payment authorization yet (Thank God). She couldn’t give me concrete answers to many of my questions as she’s new in the business. I was really confused. As in why are we mixing insurance with investments? I kept wondering if there is some community out there to help answer all my questions. I kept praying I figure it out before I signed the dotted line. That is exactly what this episode did, for free! It felt like talking to very knowledgeable friends. It is so timely coming across your show at this time. I can go on and on! Just so you know, you have got yourselves a new follower, listener and downloader. Once again thank you n God bless!

    Easy Conversation with your Genius friend
    This podcast is best described as as easy, understandable conversation with your genius friend who doesn’t make you feel like the opposite of a genius! Great topics and high quality information.
  • Md0131
    Great Content, Easy to Understand
    I’ve been in banking for a long time and I sometimes forget that others aren’t familiar with the financial jargon I spew. Kirsten and Julien remind me that we have to go back to the basics when trying to help educate others on finance. I have sent so many people to listen to their podcast. I’m in the process of starting a charity that helps educate women of color on building generational wealth. I love how they break down the details of the topic while still keeping the listeners fully engaged with their wonderful personalities.
  • E. R. Wells
    My Extremely BIASED* OPINION
    Kiersten and Julien are truly keeping financial affairs really, REAL! They make your take a deep dive into how much and the rational behind every dollar you give for services and products. Thanks for the giving “tips”$!$!$! #LoveYouABigPiece *Julien worked as a Graduate Assistant in my office!

    Practical Application
    I love listening to Kiersten and Julien! They always share great information and advice for practical improvements!
  • wellnesschick
    It’s okay not to be passionate
    This episode was amazing. This concept has been something that I’ve admittedly gotten caught up in and over the past year realized the propaganda that lurks underneath the surface. While I don’t live to make money, I’m at a point in my life where if I’m working, the money has to be worth it! The time invested at work has a cost: time away from family, hobbies, physical activity (usually) and these things have to be worked around if they are values of yours. I’m currently leaving education for this very reason. The emotional cost is high and the roi is super low. Thank you for digging into this purpose conversation.
  • CarinaStudio
    Wow! One good thing leads to another!
    Reading Get Good with Money led me to listen to Brown Ambition and listening to that podcast must have made this come up and I’m sooo glad it did!! What a treat! I’m a new listener but I’ve already shared it with my hubby and I plan on sharing it with more people. You had me at hello.
  • Gersha Porter
    Black Success!
    I found this podcast while reading Success Magazine! I get sooo much value every time I listen and I keep listening. I’m a lover of all things #blacklove #marriageworks and #moneymanagement. I’m looking forward to more value in 2023✨✨
  • Von’s World

    5 Star Worthy
    The topics, energy, and practicality that the hosts bring every week truly resonate with me. I look forward to new episodes and highly recommend. Thank you for taking the time to educate us on things to elevate our personal finance game!
  • Ezzie98
    Love it
    I found Julien and Kirsten after meeting my partner and i can 100% say that our lives have changed since finding them. We listened to their book, cashing out TWICE and it changed my partners view on the corporate world and what is possible for us as a young black couple. So many gems every week from this podcast, they even made it into my Spotify wrapped top 5 podcasts.
  • Jordan Gage
    Keep up the good work!
    My best friend bought me their book earlier this year and I really took to it after reading it. Soon after I stumbled upon the podcast and enjoy listening to them weekly on the mornings getting ready to work. Def couple goals and I love the variety of topics and the fact they they offer their genuine perspectives and aren’t afraid to disagree with one another. Love the contrast of their voices. Hope to meet in person one day.
  • Broke&indebt
    I like it.
    As much as I like the couple, I thought the podcast was a little dry at first. But it has grown on me. I look for it every Monday now. Their voices are a nice contrast. Sometimes I think Julien’s voice is too low like he is trying to talk sexy but I guess he can’t help his natural voice. I like when Kirsten comes in with the stats and research. I wish they would add an advice section.
  • wealth is my worth
    Y’all really
    Y’all work together well and both contribute equally! It’s beautiful to see this type of collaboration paired with excellent content. Love listening to your topics. Thank you!

    Episode 78 Hit Spot On
    I could so relate to episode 78 - “Are You Too Loyal to your Employer?” You hit on some great points. I look forward to hearing more.
  • Meharrydoc
    Informative
    Very informative and transparent podcast. Information is always relevant, timely and 100% REAL. I also recommend their book as well. Lots of good information and real stories from real people
  • Brdrgrrrl
    Kind, smart, informed and empowering
    Thank you for this kind, smart, informative financial conversation that captures the complexity of becoming financially literate (and activated). The hosts are funny, great story tellers and educators and they are culturally sensitive to meeting an audience where the audience might be, while elevating what some listeners think they already know! I am especially appreciative for how their approach removes shame from this topic of personal finance. The information the hosts share is accessible, explained in relatable terms, it’s specific to a niche for each episode so as to be meaningful, and it’s shared with warmth. I love this podcast!
  • Mrs.Teteh
    This podcast changed my life!
    I appreciate y’all for always being so transparent when it comes to personal finance & investing. Your approach is extremely relatable & I look forward to all the new episodes that drop on Mondays. Listening to your podcast calms my nerves and reassures there is no quick over night get rich quick set up in investing. It’s one step at a time & process of many steps so big thanks. Looking forward to whatever’s next from y’all!
  • Cassie Todtenhagen
    Awesome podcast
    This is quickly becoming one of my favorite personal finance podcasts. They focus on topics in a very relatable way for every person. There is no shame for your situation, only how to make the most of it. The best example I can think of is when they discussed providing economic support to family members and how to navigate that to meet your financial goals while maintaining the relationships. They say that they discuss the intersection of life and money and they mean it! I can’t wait to read their book, I just asked my library to add it to their collection and I now have it on hold. Thank you both for providing a refreshing perspective on personal finance and making me laugh or smile in almost every episode.
  • Texas Chanel
    Akin to getting financial insight from friends!
    Prior to learning about this podcast, I shied away from financial advice because it always felt overwhelming, over my head, and frankly judgmental. Now, I’m not only listening and learning, but sharing my new found knowledge with friends and family. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone, but it’s especially enjoyable and relatable for Black folks.
  • Joel from Nebraska
    Great podcast
    It’s great to hear a diverse perspective on financial success.
  • R V Jones
    Great learning tool.
    Finance can be her to understand, however this couple breaks it down. If you are new to finance and want to learn or an expert and understand the value of continued growth, this show is for you! Also i recommend going back and listening to past episodes.
  • skeeterspeed
    Long overdue

  • JLou044
    Just wow
    Listen, you all had me making my first ever independent investments after one episode. I never knew investing could be so accessible, digestible, or engaging! Love this podcast. I had no idea what I was missing. You definitely did change my life.
