Your journey to financial freedom : a step-by-step guide to achieving wealth and happiness

Summary: Podcaster Jamila Souffrant shows how to skyrocket your savings, blast through debt and ultimately accelerate your unique and truly epic journey to financial freedom and independence. Our fast-paced world prioritizes the productive busybody-financial security always seems to rule over the insatiable hankering for a Friday night splurge. However, Jamila Souffrant argues that you can in fact spend and save responsibly, all while enjoying that extra side of guacamole. In this book, Jamila will teach you how to determine which of the 4 "Journeyer" stages you fall into and how you should be evaluating your spending and saving goals accordingly; map out different scenarios to quit your job, retire early, and reach financial independence; downsize costly daily expenses in ways you never considered, and spend more in ways that bring you joy; and create an effective debt payoff plan that works for you. As a wife, mother of three and first-generation Jamaican immigrant, Jamila knows all too well the struggles of saving for tomorrow while spending liberally today. Now, in her first book, Jamila offers her seasoned expertise in 'Your Journey to Financial Freedom', providing readers with the resources they need to not only save for cake but eat it, too.
