You can struggle with math and still succeed with money. My guest, Sarah Brady, lives with dyscalculia, a math processing difference that makes numbers, counting, and even telling time tricky, and she’s a financial expert. This episode proves financial capability isn’t about being a “math person”; it’s about systems, tools, and compassion. If spreadsheets send you running for the hills or you’ve ever called yourself “not a numbers person,” you’re in good company. Sarah is a nationally recognized credit and finance expert, writer, and former certified credit and housing counselor. Since 2016, she’s written trusted personal finance content for top outlets like Forbes Advisor, Yahoo! Finance, USA Today Blueprint, Experian, Credit Karma, and Investopedia. With a background in loan underwriting, SEO content, and financial education, Sarah makes complex money topics clear and relatable, especially around credit, debt, scams, and the emotional side of money.
