Today we talk with Shannon McLay who is a financial planner who left a “traditional” financial services firm to start her own company, The Financial Gym.

Through her blog, Financially Blonde, her book, Train Your Way To Financial Fitness, her podcast, Martinis and Your Money, Shannon is committed to making financial fitness fun, easy and accessible for everyone. AND she is doing all this with a 10 year old son in tow. Please check out the show with, Shannon McLay.
