Naseema McElroy is a published author and the founder of Financially Intentional, a platform about personal finance and living life intentionally. Naseema managed to pay off $1 million of debt.

Naseema discusses how taking control of her finances has enabled her to overcome bankruptcy, divorce, and the cycle of living paycheck to paycheck. She shares her lessons along her path to help others benefit from the freedoms of financial independence.

Outside of encouraging people to get their financial act together, Naseema is a mother and labor and delivery nurse. Though making six figures for years, she struggled with money. Finally realizing she couldn't out-earn her financial ignorance, she knew she had to make some changes. By shifting her mindset around money, being consistent and intentional, she was able to change her financial future.
