📚BOOK RECOMMENDATION📚
Hi, I’m Alexa Claire, TFD’s Content & Production Manager 👋🏾!! You may have seen me on our IG page or in some YouTube Shorts videos lately.
I’m tapping in with you to share something Chelsea’s really excited about (we all are, really!):
The brilliant educator, commentator, and friend of TFD Anna Gifty (@itsafronomics on IG) is releasing her brand-new book, “The Double Tax” (check out the quote from our very own Chelsea on the back 😌 ).
—> —> You may remember her on our IG feed covering phenomenal election content for us!!
Things might feel really politically scary right now, but that means it’s more important than ever to keep fighting for a better future. And for us, imagining something better always starts with acknowledging what isn’t working, and that includes the ridiculous double standards for women (especially women of color) in the workplace.
“The Double Tax” is everything you need to get informed, (rightfully) angry, and prepared for next steps when it comes to advocating for a better tomorrow.

Here’s the truth: making over $100K doesn’t guarantee financial peace.
If you're thinking, "How on earth is $100K/yr not enough for people?" we talk about this in depth in tomorrow's video (9/16), “3 Things You Need To Do If You Make Over $100K”, publishing at 11AM! But, in the meantime...
We’ve seen firsthand how even high earners can still feel broke—especially without a plan. Lifestyle creep, debt, lack of savings, and no real roadmap can make six figures feel like… barely enough.
Whether you’re already in that income bracket or working toward it, the key isn’t just what you earn—it’s what you do with it.

Our Chelsea has a new op-ed out! If you've watched her latest YT Short (www.youtube.com/shorts/MX3yX9...) you'll be a bit familiar with the topic. But, if not, here's an excerpt!
"Yet, as it pertains to money and class, romance (and romcoms in media more broadly) still remains a bit of a rocky terrain. There are some titles that deal thoughtfully with financial issues, yes, but the "benevolent billionaire sweeps normal woman off her feet" trope remains one of the most popular in the genre.
The particulars of heroines' lives are often totally decoupled from financial reality, like the endless NYC-based romcoms featuring entry-level twenty-somethings living in sprawling West Village apartments. Men are often the ones with power and class status, or at least they're comfortable enough to make those issues fade from view for the duration of the story. And there is often an expectation of escapism in romance that precludes dealing realistically with money — or, for big media blockbusters, a cynical assumption that audiences won't enjoy a romcom which also takes the logistics of life seriously. "
