AfroBudgetinGirl : Financial Hardship is not Only Job Loss

Welcome to the AfroBudgetinGirl podcast — the honest, shame-free space where we talk about money and real life. Because financial hardship doesn't only look like losing a job. It shows up as debt, scams, caregiving costs, illness, grief, underemployment, and so much more. If you've ever felt like your financial situation was too complicated to explain — you're in the right place.

Each week, we go beyond the surface to share real stories and practical insights that reflect what life actually looks like — messy, complex, and full of resilience. Whether you're in the middle of a financial crisis or quietly carrying more than anyone around you knows, this podcast was made for you.

This bilingual podcast releases weekly episodes in both English and French, with each episode available separately in each language — so every listener can access the conversation in the language that feels most like home.

Some episodes are podcast-exclusive, while others expand on blog articles with deeper context, lived experiences, and real numbers. With 20+ years in accounting and tax, AfroBudgetinGirl brings you grounded, practical insights — not textbook advice, not judgment, just honest conversation that helps you protect your money, manage your blind spots, and build financial resilience that lasts.

Because financial hardship is not a personal failure. It's part of life. And talking about it openly is where healing — and rebuilding — begins.
