Let’s be real — 2025 is already shaping up to be a hell of a year financially, and not necessarily in a good way. Between Trump’s tariffs, a tanking stock market, and recession fears popping off everywhere you look, it’s overwhelming out here. That’s exactly why I recorded this episode — not to scare, but to prepare. If it feels like the financial world is spiraling and you’re wondering how the hell to protect yourself, your savings, and your sanity, this episode is your lifeline.

I’m breaking down everything you need to know to weather this economic storm––why this financial crisis is different from 2008 and 2020, what to actually do with your money right now depending on your age, and how to build security without spiraling into panic. Whether you’re just starting your financial journey or you’ve been stacking coins for years, this episode is packed with clear, actionable, no-BS advice. Please share this episode with your friends and family!
