    88: Life Updates + What's Next
    In this episode, Kim is catching you up on life—what’s been happening behind the scenes, what she’s been navigating as a single mom, and the shifts that led to this podcast restart. She opens up about the financial challenges she faced, including cutting back on things she once loved (yes… even meal prep and nail appointments), and the burnout that slowed down the hustle and content creation. Kim also shares her wins—consistently tracking her expenses, landing new jobs after losing one, and continuing to build a life with intention. She breaks down what’s coming next for the podcast, what you can expect moving forward, and why now feels like the right time to return to the mic after putting things off. If you’re a single mom navigating real life, real money, raising kids, and trying to build something meaningful—this episode is your reminder that you’re not alone, you’re doing better than you think, and you can always start again.
