Thank you all for tuning in and being a part of our journey. We're just getting warmed up!\n\nRachel Covert spent fifteen years climbing the ranks of the fashion industry, eventually becoming VP of a nine figure business. From the outside it looked like the dream. She ran a team, traveled internationally in business class, and shaped the products millions of people wore. From the inside, the picture looked different.\n\nIn this episode, Rachel walks us through what it actually took to build that career, the moment she realized the climb wasn't sustainable, and how she used the principles of financial independence to walk away from fashion entirely by 36. We talk about what her investment portfolio looked like in the years leading up to that decision, the mindset shifts that had to happen before the numbers ever worked, and why she now spends her time helping others build the same kind of financial literacy she had to learn the hard way.\n\nIf you have ever wondered what it actually takes to trade a high pressure career for financial freedom, this conversation lays it out honestly, real numbers, real tradeoffs, and all."}
