More Than Just a Number: My Journey from “Broke” to BOLD
Would you believe that 63% of women feel they know little to nothing about financial topics? Or that only 29% of women feel confident in their financial planning? Those aren't just statistics to me - they were my reality.
For years, I was known as 'Broke' Puckett instead of Brooke Puckett. The nickname started as a joke among family and friends, but it cut deeper than anyone knew. There I was, a dedicated teacher pouring my heart into my students, while drowning in student loan debt and living paycheck to paycheck. Every month was a juggling act, and that cloud of financial uncertainty followed me everywhere. Not to mention… I had a HORRIBLE spending habit. I’m known for having caviar taste on a tuna fish budget.
The worst part? I felt alone in my struggle. I smiled through the 'Broke Puckett' jokes while secretly feeling ashamed that I, an educated woman, couldn't seem to get my financial life together. But here's what I learned: financial struggles don't define your worth, and they definitely don't have to be your forever story.
My transformation began when I decided to take control of my financial narrative. No more letting those 'broke' jokes write my story. No more accepting financial uncertainty as my norm. Through education, dedication, and a lot of prayer, I began rebuilding my financial foundation.
Today, I'm passionate about helping other women rewrite their financial stories. Because those statistics? They can change. That feeling of being alone in your financial journey? It ends here.
Whether you're living paycheck to paycheck, dealing with debt, or simply ready to take control of your financial future, know this: you're not alone, and it's never too late to start your journey toward financial confidence.
