Marriage, Money, and the Military - a podcast by Financial Planning Association

Andi Wrenn’s mission is to reach as many service members and their families as possible to help coach them through their finances to achieve their biggest life goals. As a military spouse, she’s truly walked the walk, and works to help people understand the unique financial challenges they might face while involved with the military. More than that, she approaches each conversation with a mind to marriage and family counseling, which allows her to view financial coaching in a more comprehensive way.
