So Money with Farnoosh Torabi

Shownotes Transcript

Today we’re catching up with the incredible Jannese Torres, host of Yo Quiero Dinero) podcast and trust me—she’s had a year. Since her last visit, she’s launched her book Financially Lit,) traveled the country on a book tour while secretly pregnant, became a mom, got engaged, and even bought a house.

But that’s just the beginning. In this conversation, we dive into how financial independence has reshaped her life as a new parent, her approach to building wealth while growing a family, and—something we don’t talk about nearly enough—how she and her fiancé have structured their finances now that he’s a stay-at-home parent on her payroll.

From prenups to parenthood, from self-employment hacks to the real cost of giving birth (wait until you hear her hospital bill), Jannese gets real about the financial and emotional shifts that come with these big life changes.
