    I Owe The IRS $5,000 and Have $11,000 of Credit Card Debt — Now What?

    This week’s listener, “Beth,” is stuck between tax debt and credit card debt—plus the anxiety that comes when you’re a little bit of a rebel, chasing that nonprofit art life immigrant parents never signed off on. (We see you, Beth!) Mandi shares lessons from her own contractor journey, breaks down why the IRS is no joke, and gets honest about how hard it is to face down those phone calls and official forms. You’ll hear: • Why tax debt takes priority (because the IRS does NOT play, y’all) • Smart ways to negotiate payment plans (and what “offer in compromise” means) • Real talk on avoiding credit card traps, balance transfers, and why budgeting apps like Rocket Money and Monarch can help you see the whole mess clearly • Which debt payoff method actually works for real people (snowball vs. avalanche, plus why momentum matters) • How to keep your sanity and your community close—because shame and overwhelm are not welcome on this show • Lifting each other up and why it’s ok to slow down, set boundaries, and put self-care first (even free self-care counts!)If you’ve felt stuck, overwhelmed, or just wish you weren’t facing those numbers alone, this is the episode for you.

    How Did The Government Get The Jobs Data So Damn Wrong? [Solo Ep]

    On this week’s episode of Brown Ambition, Mandi dives into the latest jobs report and how the government issued ANOTHER correction that shows we actually added 911,000 FEWER jobs than they calculated last year. That's half as many jobs as they reported. WTF?She also digs into what the data really says about the state of the economy, especially for Black women. With over 300,000 Black women pushed out of the workforce this year, she breaks down why the numbers don’t always tell the full story and how systemic bias shows up in hiring trends. But it’s not all doom and gloom she highlights industries where jobs are still growing, from healthcare to IT, and offers perspective on pursuing career moves that align with your skills and passion rather than just chasing trends. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: How to identify your personal “power hours” and use them for your most important goals The reality behind the labor market and why Black women are being hit hardest Sectors where job opportunities are growing despite the downturn How to balance pursuing in-demand fields with staying true to your own career path Practical ways to use AI to boost your job search and career strategy Why protecting your mental health is just as important as networking and applying Resources and Links Mentioned: Click here to Sign up for Mandi’s free workshop: How to Leverage AI for Your Career – September 25th, 8 p.m. EST  Join the Brown Ambition Book Club via Patreon:patreon.com/brownambition Learn more about the Loveland Foundation: thelovelandfoundation.org See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The Double Tax & Why It’s So Damn Expensive to Be a Woman of Color Ft. Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman

    This week on Brown Ambition, Mandi sits down with the brilliant Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman award-winning researcher, speaker, and author of The Double Tax: How Women of Color Are Overcharged and Underpaid. Anna breaks down the reality of the “double tax”  that compounded cost of racism + sexism that women of color know all too well. From hair discrimination to pay inequity, resume “whitening” to broken rungs on the career ladder, Anna shows us the data behind our lived experiences and, most importantly, offers solutions for economic justice. We get real about: Why “diversity vs. merit” is a false narrative (spoiler: they’re complements, not competitors). The hidden financial and emotional toll of navigating workplaces as women of color. How Anna negotiated her first big offer (and walked away with $20K more 💅🏾). The role of allies — and why Chelsea Clinton writing her book’s foreword actually makes sense. Why Governor Lisa Cook’s fight matters for all of us, not just Black women. Anna also shares her personal journey: from growing up Ghanaian-American to becoming a PhD candidate at Harvard, teaching future economists, and creating a pathway for the next generation of women of color in academia and beyond. This isn’t just a convo about the problems — it’s about solutions, power moves, and creating change. ✨ Resources + Links Mentioned in This Episode: Grab Anna’s book: The Double Tax: How Women of Color Are Overcharged and Underpaid Follow Anna on IG: https://www.instagram.com/itsafronomics/?hl=en Learn more about the Sadie Collective: sadiecollective.org Show your support: #WeStandWithLisaCook Let’s Connect:IG: @brownambitionpodcast | @mandimoneyEmail: brownambitionpodcast@gmail.com We launched a Patreon! 🎉 🎥 Get early access to ad-free video recordings, join our BA book club, and even score a seat live in the studio during tapings. 👉 patreon.com/brownambition See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    How Digital Nomads Can Move to Spain in 2025 ft. The First Gen Mentor Gigi Gonzalez [WASHDAY WOOSAH]

    BA Fam, today’s Wash Day Woosah is a treat. We’ve got our girl Giovanna “Gigi” Gonzalez aka The First Gen Mentor,  author of Cultura & Cash, and three-time BA guest back on the mic. But this time, she’s not joining us from Chicago… she’s calling in from Spain! In this episode, Gigi shares the money moves and life decisions that made it possible for her and her husband to pack up and move abroad. We talk about: The financial planning behind her big move (and what she wishes she’d known sooner). How she turned her biggest regret—never studying abroad—into a mid-career dream come true. The not-so-sexy side of moving abroad: visas, taxes, and the Spanish version of the IRS (spoiler: don’t mess with Hacienda). What’s surprised her most about living in Spain (yes, even the credit cards work differently). Why she’s pushing for a Spanish-language version of her book to serve first-gen families across borders. We also get real about career pivots, the rise and fall of DEI budgets, navigating relationships with neurodivergence, and why sometimes the real flex isn’t retiring early—it’s having the freedom to choose how and when you work.
