Phenomenal podcast always, but the cherry on top was your recent episode with Amanda Seales! Thank you for this. Such an amazing conversation! ❤️

This podcast has not only enhanced my life in the career + personal finance sector but provided the space for my girl gang to share knowledge and discussion. Thank you Mandi & Tiffany to your commitment to serving women of color in an authentic and vulnerable way!

I feel at home with this podcast. I learn loads of information in an authentic and fun way. I just found this podcast and I will be reviewing all the past episodes. Many thanks to you ladies! 4/16/24 Thanks for sharing the episode with Amanda Seales. I’ve always liked her but definitely have a new respect for her. Major respect. Thanks again!

I’ve listened to this podcast over the years and it’s been so enjoyable hearing women who are further in life than me share their experiences, ups downs, perspectives and wins over challenges. This podcast is a breadth of fresh air week by week even the non finance related parts. It all just works, definitely listen if you are trying to achieve anything in life while remaining integral and balanced especially as a women. It’s inspirational and encouraging to hear these two ladies experiences and advice week by week.

I love the show and the energy you both bring to the table! I’ve learned so much. Please continue to do what you’re doing!

Love the energy and how financial topics are discussed in super simple ways. You go gals!

Fellow and Future BA Girlies! Listen to me. Sometimes, information is helpful and useful. But sometimes, just knowing that I am not alone in my failures and mistakes gives me encouragement to get back on the horse or just get on the horse. If you have made mistakes, are making mistakes and or want information to avoid making mistakes, give this episode a listen. Mandi is vulnerable in sharing her challenges, but Tiffany drops ways for Mandi - and us - to walk through them. Good. Stuff. Here.

I absolutely love this podcast! Like every single episode even the guest ones (I typically hate guest episodes for pods). I always get something out of the content even if it just motivates me to open my laptop and take a look at some jobs on LinkedIn or look at my noodle budget (I read Tiffany’s GGWM book in 2 days 😭); I feel like I’m listening to women who just really want to be a voice in the black girl finance/business world.

Tiffany and Mandi are so amazing!! They give out such good information. Especially for everyday situations. I love the episode on Life insurance! Thank you ladies!!

The release dates for the Brown Ambition Podcast on Wednesdays and Fridays are my favorite part of the week. Without fail, there will be nuggets of wisdom dropped that are practical and easily applied. Thank you Tiffany and Mandi for sharing your knowledge so willingly and generously.

The best! Not too long.. concise and easy to understand information. Relatable to many! Love it!

I started listening to Brown Ambition while looking for something to listen to on my long commute to work and by far this is the best one out there! I listen to other podcasts as well, but none compare to the authenticity, sound advice and humor of this one. The chemistry is perfect. I look forward to listening to each and every episode. I love Mandi and Tiffany as if they were my BFFs, lol. ~Karen from The Bronx 🙌🏽

I’ve been listening to this podcast for a while and still make some bad decisions! I always have the voices of Mandi and Tiffany in my head like girllll get it together, you know what to do! Thanks for the amazing advice, encouragement, guests and so much more!

Must hear podcast! Very good advice. I listen every week but I loved the episode with Mandi and cousin Ana.

Both of you are inspirational, beautiful, smart women. I have been going through depression and anxiety for a few years. I was so unsure of my life goals and how to maneuver in this world. Your authenticity has helped me understand and how to love me. Thank you so much and I look forward to hearing next week’s episode! Vonne M.

This is such a great podcast and I truly enjoy the energy and information Mandy and Tiffany provides

I recently found this show when I was listening to Anthony ONeal’s podcast. Tiffany was on his show promoting her new book. I fell in love with this show so much, I even went back to the beginning of the podcasts and have been listening to ALL of the shows! This show is so entertaining and informative. I absolutely love this show and I’m so glad I found it!!

Mandi speaking on her family history with kidney disease and diabetes really resonated with me. My dad has struggled with multiple kidney transplants and diabetes complications my entire life, and most of my family members also have diabetes and hypertension. I know how hard it can be & just want to send some extra love!!

This is one of the best podcasts by black women who talk about all things business and personal finance and just leveling up your life. I love the conversations and it just feels like you are talking to your girlfriends. Keep up the great work ladies!

This podcast has become a staple listen for me. Lots of great advice for finance and business and even for life in general. I'm planning to start my own business in a couple of years and I listen to keep myself in that mindset. I think this podcast is best if you listen regularly. It may seem off topic if you listen and they are talking about, say, going to see Beyoncé. But I started listening recently-in the last 6 months- and started with listening to older episodes. So in that time, they were giving financial advice, but then one of the hosts had a tragedy. So the show has become more nuanced-they are much more balanced wrt life and business because nothing will shift your priorities like a personal loss. If you can learn it before going through it, it's to your benefit. The hosts are knowledgeable and vulnerable and dependable-the episodes come out like clockwork. I've already listened to the "Are You Coachable?" episode multiple times and I've sent it to many people. Thank you Tiffany and Mandy for sharing so much of yourselves and your wisdom!!

This podcast is everything! Fun, honest, relatable, informative and good vibes all around.

It’s been great to see this podcast evolve. I enjoy the current format of a longer topic covered Wednesday and shorter Q&A Friday. I cannot believe how much has happened for Tiffany and Mandi over time. Thank you both for being open, honest, and vulnerable though the good and not so good times. I’ve learned so much from the podcast and Tiffany’s book. Keep teaching!

I absolutely love my girls Mandy and Tiffany. This podcast is very informative, fun and just real life !

Wherever you are in your financial journey you can definitely get some gems out of this pod!

I came here after hearing Tiffany on the Financial Feminist podcast. I’ve listened to, and read Tiffany’s book while taking her tips and implementing them in my life. I absolutely love and appreciate the vulnerability that she has when speaking about her own financial path and guiding us on ours.

Tiffany is Very informative! I love Tiffany’s quirkiness! Mandee’s perspective is too old fashioned…like a 1990’s management perspective.

Whoever makes your show promos needs to be let go. Totally unintelligible, do you even know who your target audience is?

Hearing the way Tiffany spoke about how loving her husband was and how she still feels his love was so heart warming. IMHO, Tiffany’s response to the “Would you date a Bus Driver?” Is the only acceptable response.

Brown Ambition was my first financial podcast, I’m so grateful I found it. Mandi and Tiffany have helped change my perspective on using money as a tool to build wealth and give me peace of mind. I love the guest speakers and I’m especially loving audience members who come on the show with their very real financial questions. This is a POC-friendly podcast you can’t miss.

Perfect Message! Perfect Timing! I’m Gonna Get My Tracy On! Thanks (again) Tiff!!

Thank you, both for having this podcast. Both of you have great tips. Mandi and Tiffany, thank you for helping me see outside the box. I thought I know much of finances and negotiating but obviously I was doing something wrong. I’m still learning and getting my things on track. So far Mandi, your negotiating skills helped. I was able to get at least a 20k boost on my salary :). Tiffany, love your energy, WOW I just love it! We need that cheerleader when working with our debt. Thank you for going above the basics of finance many of us do not think of our estate. Growing up I was taught if you don’t have it ask a sister (credit card) wow did this thinking put me in a hole. Which you are helping me get out of. You two woman are an amazing combo. Thank you a million 😁😁😁🤩🤩🤩

I’ve heard the commercial for this podcast on other podcasts I listen to. It is such an annoying and bad commercial that it makes me not want to listen

BAQ&A heeeeeeeyyyyy BAQ&A heeeeeeeeyyyyy

2023 - Don't love the new format. Are we doing Q&A both episodes a week? 2021 - Still wait anxiously on Wednesday for the new episodes! Love that you’re leveling up and getting the love in the new agency! Except, one piece that I miss is the support for businesses that are local / BIPOC! Please don’t promote Goldman Sachs... they have done so much harm to communities of color worldwide... 2018 - This is hands down the most money empowering podcast for women of color. Discovered them three years ago and I don’t miss an episode. Love Mandi and Tiffany!

Terrible

These are my besties! I have learned so much listening to them. Just like having a conversation with good friends.

Thank you too Mandy & Tiffany for all that you’ve fine to give back to our community. The greens that y’all have dropped have helped me, tremendously.

I am so glad I came across this show! I’ve taken so many actionable and practical nuggets of advice to implement. Love tuning in!

The best. That’s all I need to say.

I was looking to learn about finances, but I wasted 30+ minutes of my life. Wish I could get it back, but Father Time doesn’t grant refunds. Instead I learned about the personal lives of two people. They talked about their Thanksgiving time off and are now talking about eyelashes. Nothing against the hosts as human beings, but the content was far from financial. There was about 5 minutes where they discussed their observations about the economy, but there wasn’t any deeper insight than what each of us would also observe about the economy. The financial equivalent of talking about the weather…yep, looks like it’s about to rain.

This is my favorite podcast by far. This is marketed as financial education… but that won’t stop it from being a cooking class, history class, therapy session, etc. I love it! I love Mandi and Tiffany and awesome they are.

Mandi and Tiffany give me life! The knowledge, laughter and love that express is what is needed in this crazy! You both are so uplifting and you push me to strive to be better!

The Brown Ambition podcast always gives me a jolt of energy! Mandi and Tiffany as co-hosts have such a warm, honest, informed, and fun approach. I leave laughing, with tools to research, and encouraged to continue making strides in my own finance journey.

I always have a good time listening to Tiffany and Mandi! A perfect pair of fun, energetic, and supportive friends giving their sound opinions on finances. I have cried, I have “yaaaaas,” I have shared what I learned/heard with others! I turn the volume all the way up just in case others are ear hustling. “We’re back, we’re black…. We’re brown Ambition!”

Mandi & Tiffany make learning about money so easy & understandable. They literally cover everything financial & I’ve learned so much from them. Also, Tiffany’s personality is just hilarious & I live for her BA Q/A intros!! 🤣

I love this podcast and love supporting women in business. However, Mandy’s scripts are a rip off. I learned about her negotiation scripts in one of the episodes and thought to check it out because who doesn’t wanna know how to negotiate their salary? For $47, all I got was 13 pages of FLUFF. And I’m not talking about 13 fully typed out pages of information. Thirteen pages of bullet points laced with large fonts and graphics. For context… a best selling book costs about $20-$35. And that’s 250 to 400ish pages of information. For $47 I expected more bang for my buck. Ripping off people who are trying to find their financial footing is a disservice to the very people you claim you’re trying to help. Because I was ripped off, I’m sharing the main bullet points here, so screenshot before they get my comment deleted. 1. In a salary negotiation, don’t name a number first. Say you’re excited to learn about the role etc. Research the salary range as well. 2. Ask for a raise when you get a competing job offer. Leverage. 3. When asking for a raise, demonstrate how you brought value to the team. Don’t talk abt inflation/ rent hikes. 4. When asked for previous compensation, say you don’t feel comfortable giving them a number. It is illegal in some states for employers to ask this, know your rights. 5. Ask for a sign-on bonus / or equity. Read the terms carefully. 6. If you have a competing offer, use that as leverage. 7. You can also negotiate relocation expenses 8. If given a verbal offer, ask them to email you the offer and give you x amount of days to look over it. 9. If you initially lowballed yourself, you can still renegotiate and say you’ve learned more about the role and what it entails so you want to be compensated accordingly. 10. If you want the job, but have a higher competing offer, you can see if they’ll match the competing offer. “I’m thrilled to work with your firm. The only thing holding me back is that a competing offer values me at $_____. “ That’s it really.

I recently started listening to the BA podcast from the beginning. Tiffany & Mandi, the evolution of you and the show is so motivating as a brown girl entrepreneur! ♥️♥️♥️ keep up the great work!

I binged this podcast back in 2020 and now I don’t miss an episode as soon as they drop. I have learned so much for Mandi

Listening to the podcast is like having your homegirls who are excellent with money lovingly check up on your finances.

As a first gen, Nigerian American woman, I saw my parents’ very different struggle with to provide impacted by their own citizenship status, race, colorism, class, gender, and age impacted. The education provided by expert newsies just isn’t written for us 99% of the time (though it’s getting better). Over this past year, I’ve learned so much and have made financial, career, and wellness plans that work for me—not someone else’s box for me. I’ve completed my emergency fund, got my retirement on track, and am rethinking my career and location. Thank you for giving me the tools to pursue financial wellness in healthy work environments.
