Christina is an activator. A futurist and visionary leader.

And she also knows the freedom and flexibility that come from becoming a successful entrepreneur — and she wants that for you.
For years, she felt frustrated with stressful work environments. The same environments stuck in cycles of waiting until something was wrong before attempting to fix it. Reactionary and ineffective.
She knew what to do but was trapped in systems keeping her from making a real impact. She was also overworked! She craved freedom and flexibility for her life — and the satisfaction of knowing she could make a significant difference in this world on her own terms.
Tired of being told she could “only do so much,” Christina felt called to break through the industry glass ceilings to maximize her impact and income. Her experience highlights include:
● Served Thousands of Students Nationwide
● Presented On Global Stages
● Flown Out to Work with Clients Frequently
● Featured on Podcasts and Nationwide Publications
● Connected with the Department of Education to Share Her Work
● Conducted Instagram Lives with Celebrities Like Miguel
And she now averages 5-figures of revenue a month (sometimes even 5-figures in one day!) and is projected to do almost $300,000 this year!

So in this episode, I've invited my guests to talk about what they're doing to tackle this issue and how we can support them in the fight against financial illiteracy for students.
