Episode in a Nutshell:
Liz welcomes entrepreneur, speaker and master of financial planning Tracey Bissett to the podcast. Tracey and Liz talk about the importance of leveraging debt as a business owner as well as how to maximize that knowledge to enhance your business. Tracey discusses the origin of her own small business, including how she became a teacher of financial services. Finally, Tracey talks about her upcoming Master Class where she will be offering advice on how to be certain of what you can afford in your business.
Tracey is an accomplished professional with 20 years of experience in the financial services industry working directly or indirectly with personal, commercial and corporate clients to help them achieve their financial goals. A demonstrated passion for increasing financial fitness coupled with lending and risk management experience led to the establishment of Bissett Financial Fitness Inc.
As President and Chief Financial Fitness Trainer, Tracey works with clients to help them understand and improve their level of financial fitness with a goal of increased confidence using their financial skills so they can be successful in their financial life. She works with people of all ages, focusing on youth and young adults, as well as engages with companies and not-for-profit entities in various capacities including one on one coaching and contracts focused on financial services and risk management assignments. In addition, she teaches and leads speaking engagements to increase financial fitness awareness.
Financial fitness also known as financial literacy means having the knowledge, skills and confidence to make responsible financial decisions. Just like physical fitness, your level of financial fitness may be starting to learn the basics about money, novice to expert budgeter or becoming a more sophisticated investor. Everyone’s financial fitness level is individual and unique. Just like your health, being financially fit enables you be successful in your life. I consider financial fitness to be fundamental life skill and am passionate about helping people improve their level of “fitness”.
