Episode Synopsis

I’ve been thinking a lot about food in my kitchen lately. Why, you ask? Here’s one reason: US grocery costs have jumped the most in 46 years. So while our spending may not go to purchasing air travel, experiences or that new bar in town, I knew I couldn’t be the only one watching my spending at the grocery market.
To learn a bit more about how we can manage our food spend, I reached to Dannielle Romoleroux. She’s the founder of First Gen Money, a financial literacy company that focuses on the first-gen folks, those who are first to graduate from college or build wealth in the U.S.
She’s the daughter to Ecuadorian immigrant parents herself, and recently became debt-free, having paid off $26,385 in 26 months. Go Danielle! She’s also luckily employed, but keeping an eye on her budget. I spoke with Dannielle about how she manages her food spend during the pandemic as a first generation millennial and how she’s learning to Cocinar (Cooking) With What I’ve Got -- a clever name for her new YouTube series.
