Kiersten and Julien Saunders’ story is one which spans nearly 10 years, from meeting at the company where they both worked to breaking up after a vacation to getting back together and learning more about money to beginning a career in the very field that had ended their relationship. Now the podcast hosts, authors and YouTube personalities discuss the importance of gaining financial literacy, and how community goes a long way in getting you there.

One of the first steps toward becoming financially secure is becoming financially literate, and finding communities—both digitally and in-person—can be an important element to doing so. Listening to and learning from other people allows you to realize what experiences are normal and what you should be concerned about, as well as giving you a place to ask for advice when you need it. Kiersten, Julien and Brilliant Thoughts host Tristan Ahumada continue on to discuss their book, building an awareness of yourself and your financial situation, and improving your financial skills.
