Three years later, at a financial workshop, Danielle had an epiphany. She realized she was very responsible in many areas. She started asking questions and learning about how money works. She wanted to feel more empowered, so she read books and continued to learn and search for answers. She says, “You’ll find a way if you really want to.”
Sometimes Danielle still feel irresponsible spending money, even when buying groceries or a two-dollar ice cream. However, she pays herself first and has a plan in place so a situation like what happened before doesn’t ever happen again. She encourages us all to pick one thing and start somewhere instead of being paralyzed by overwhelm.
