Business with Purpose Podcast EP 57: Bola Sokunbi, Clever Girl Finance

This week’s Business with Purpose Podcast features Bola Sokunbi, the founder of Clever Girl Finance.

Business Podcast EP 57: Bola Sokunbi, Clever Girl Finance by North Carolina ethical blogger Still Being Molly


Picture this: I am a year out of college and I’m having a full-blown panic attack on the floor of my room because I suddenly realize that I’m $36,000 in consumer credit card debt. I realized the gravity of the financial mistakes I’d made and I was embarrassed, ashamed, and I had no idea what to do. Over the next few years, I had to work hard (so hard) to get myself out of the financial mess I’d gotten myself into… and today, I’m thankful that my husband and I remain debt free and we are diligent to be good stewards of our finances.

Bola Sokunbi, the founder and creator of Clever Girl Finance, has made it her mission to empower women to be in control of their finances. Growing up in Nigeria, she saw how many women were completely unaware of the family finances… her father and mother taught her important lessons on saving, giving, and spending and she has since taken those lessons and created a business to help others. She even saved $100,000 in CASH her first three years out of college. I loved my conversation with Bola and I know you are going to be BLOWN away by her story.

Bola also has a personal finance and business podcast and I was a guest on that podcast just last week! You can hear more of my financial testimony by listening here…

🎊 ONE WHOLE YEAR 🎉

My debut memoir, “If I Don’t Laugh, I’ll Cry” has been out in the world for one whole year today. Writing this book was hard and holy work, and it’s been such a joy to see how many of you have laughed, cried, and laughed till you cried.

Thank you for the support of this book. ❤️

If you’ve read it, would you do me a *huge* favor and leave a review on Amazon and Goodreads? And would you share the book with a friend or on social media? It would mean the world to me.

And if you haven’t picked up a copy or downloaded the audiobook yet, what are you waiting for? 😉

I often wonder if he’d be a red head like Amos or if he’d be musically gifted like Lilly.

Would he love snuggling or be a boy who only wanted hugs on his terms?

Would his eyes be brown like his dad’s or would he be covered in freckles?

What would his laugh sound like? Who would be his best friend? What would his favorite book be? Would he say Gen Alpha slang words like sigma and skibidi or would he love his mom too much to do that?

Would I be mommy or mama or mom to him?

So many questions I won’t get to answers to on this side of heaven. But I think about him today, just like every day, and I hope he’s getting a slice of strawberry cake for his heavenly birthday.

7 years. 🤍 #elijahtimothy
