Chelsea Brennan is an ex-hedge fund investment manager turned full-time blogger. After several years working on Wall Street, Chelsea made a major life change to choose a family, passion, and a positive impact on the world over money.

In our conversation, we talk about controlling your finances, how to get on the same page with your spouse and start investing for your kids (and your) future!
