Ep 156: From Legal Secretary to Children's Book Author & Community Leader | The Power of Just Joining In!
📍📍 Welcome to Lean and Clean with Fitness Chef Christine!
Today, I’m joined by my inspiring friend, Carmen, as we dive into The Wealth Experiment—a transformative journey that helped us both step out of our comfort zones, take action, and grow in both business and life.
Carmen shares how she went from a full-time legal secretary to creating her own Facebook community, launching a podcast, and publishing children’s books on Amazon—all while preparing for retirement with financial wisdom and smart planning. 🚀
In this episode, we discuss:
✅ The power of taking action through small dares 💡
✅ How Carmen built her Just Join In Facebook group & podcast 🎙️
✅ Her journey to publishing children’s books with AI & Canva 📚
✅ The importance of social security planning & financial freedom 💰
✅ Leaving a legacy & sharing your gifts with the world ✨
