"Money is the one thing you can mess up and always come back to... It's just money."  - Mykail James

Money should be simple, so that's how Mykail James, a.k.a Boujie Budgeter, teaches it. 

When she got her first salary job at 22, Mykail went looking for financial education that she could relate to but couldn't find it. Left out of the money conversation as a young professional and sick of making terrible financial decisions, she took matters into her own hands by creating a platform and budgeting tools to help automate her finances and take the guesswork out of money.
Today, armed with an MBA, Mykail provides searingly sassy and funny social commentary, financial advice, and workshops millennials and Gen Zs can actually relate to. She's been featured in The New York Times, Business Insider, theSkimm, The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, Essence, and more. 
In this episode, we discuss: 
Mykail's money storyHow our parents are our first money influencesHer first forays into the world of personal finance The importance of understanding the financial system early on #FOM (Fear of Month) and money trauma How her life changed when she got her finances under control Why "messing up" is a meaningful part of getting good with moneyWhy automation is QUEENWhy we need finfluencers to democratize personal finance furtherHow to align your values with your spending How patience leads to success More about the financial workshops she offersAnd more!
