In this episode of Creative Minds, Smart Money, I’m joined by the powerhouse that is Cassidy Handle—copywriter, mom, and woman of deep faith. We’re talking about that real moment when you realize you can’t do it all on your own…and what it takes to finally let go of the money stuff you’ve been clinging to out of fear.
We unpack how Cassidy went from being fired days after buying a house to building a self-sustaining business while raising her daughter solo. And yes, we go there—talking about money control, financial trauma, faith-based stewardship, and what it actually means to trust someone with your books.
In this episode, we cover:
✅ The fear behind letting someone else manage your finances
✅ Why delegation is spiritual (and strategic)
✅ How Cassidy built a thriving business with free resources and prayer
✅ What to do before leaving your 9–5 job
✅ How money mindset shifts when you go full-time
✅ Signs you’re undercharging—and how to fix it
✅ The power of proactive money habits vs. financial panic
✅ How to align your business growth with your faith
If you’ve ever felt scared to hand over your finances—or unsure what true financial trust even looks like—this episode will meet you right where you are.
