On today's episode of The His & Her Money Show, we've got an amazing guest coming on to chat with us about God, finances, and how she's using her faith and money smarts and skills to change lives. Emily Stroud is a wife, mom, author, entrepreneur, and financial adviser, working hard to change the stigma of talking about money - because talking about money is exactly what she loves to do! Emily's whole family is in the ministry, so naturally, she assumed she'd follow in some way or another. While getting her MBA, set to pursue non-profit consulting for churches and ministries, she took some financial courses, and it was obvious that here she'd found her calling. 20 years later, she counsels couples and individuals on managing money and faith in the best way possible. Emily is an inspiring guru of advice on all things finances, and touches on debt, investment, and staying on track financially as a married unit. This fantastic episode is packed with so many nuggets of wisdom to take in, but it's still only the tip of the iceberg of what she covers in her books, so go check them out on Amazon and give them a read! You're sure to learn something new! To learn more and find inspiration, keep up with Emily at EmilygStroud.com!
