Today’s guest is a rock star. Lauren Bowling started blogging in 2012 at L Bee and The Money Tree. Her blog caught so much traction that she quit her corporate gig and went all in teaching people about money, homeownership and side hustling through blogging.
In this episode we talk about the time she moved to New York with $300 in her pocket and a dream of becoming an actress, steps she took to overcome a shopping addiction, paying off $10,000 of credit card debt in 90 days, buying her home at 26, and even tips for bloggers and course creators. Her course Beginner Blog Accelerator is open for pre-registration through March 15 at a reduced price. So if you want in on this course, make sure you check out the show notes to learn more about the course and get your seat.
