Gettin’ Free! : A Juneteenth Collaboration brought to you by Sistas Who Kill: A True Crime Podcast. We know that history is told from the side of the victors, but that leaves room for misinformation and false narratives.
We are on a mission to change that.

Brittany Dandy, founder of Ode to Us Wellness and marketing consultant, joins the podcast to talk about saving over $90K+ and transitioning from freelancer to having a career where she is able to enjoy stability, increase her income, and reach financial independence.
Exploring motherhood prompted Brittany to ask the question: “What would make me feel safe and secure during the transition to parenthood?” This query led her to the world of financial independence, mental and physical wellness, and ultimately resulted in her saving $90K+ with her partner.
We also chat about thriving while walking an unconventional path, side hustling to keep self-taught skills sharp, what it took to save so much money, and more.
