How do you know your finances are finally moving in the right direction?

You may start to see a little more money left at the end of the month, your savings continuing to grow, and less reliance on credit. Those small signs can show that your financial check-in is working and that you are getting closer to your goals.

This clip is from the Good Money Moves podcast.

What is one sign that helps you feel like you are getting back on track?

Adapt through change. Lead with confidence. Thrive!

Jenn, Chelsy, and Cody represented First Alliance Credit Union at the Rochester Area Chamber of Commerce RYT Summit where they connected with fellow local professionals and gained new perspectives on leadership, career growth, communication, and navigating change in the workplace.

We’re always looking for opportunities to learn, grow, and bring new ideas back to our team and the communities we serve. We were also proud to support the summit as a table sponsor this year.

Thanks to the Rochester Area Chamber of Commerce for bringing local professionals together for a day of learning, connection, and growth!

A purchase you didn’t make. A wallet you can’t find. Your phone can help you take action.

Start small, then build from there.

If you want to spend less or save more, you do not have to figure out the whole plan at once. Start with bite sized goals, build momentum, and then turn those early wins into bigger goals like buying a home, replacing your car, or planning a vacation.

What long term goal would feel more possible if you started with one small money goal this week?

What could change if fear and doubt stopped calling the shots?

Join host Brent Rempe and guest Maria Serbus this Friday, October 9, for a Meaningful Mornings conversation about leading with purpose.

Maria Serbus is a keynote speaker, leadership mentor, and former occupational therapist with a Master's degree and over a decade of experience working with high-achieving founders, CEOs, and organizational leaders. As the founder of Maria Serbus LLC, a global leadership brand, she helps CEOs, founders, & visionaries live from purpose, beyond fear & doubt.

At the core of Maria's work is the belief that lasting change starts in the subconscious mind — where fear and doubt quietly run the show long before they show up in a business plan. She guides founders to face that fear head-on, rewire the beliefs holding them back, and build a life of legacy rather than one driven by scarcity or self-doubt. Through speaking, group programs, and the Limitless with Maria Podcast, she helps entrepreneurs reconnect to their why, build resilience without losing their edge, and create a legacy rooted in purpose.
