From Math Teacher to Money Teacher: Financial Literacy with Stefon Bowman

From Math Teacher to Money Teacher: Financial Literacy with Stefon Bowman

Financial literacy shouldn't be a mystery or a topic people avoid discussing. The more we talk about money openly, the more empowered people become to make informed financial decisions. In this episode of Marci Talks Money (and Life), I talk with financial literacy educator Stefon Bowman about his journey from math teacher to money teacher, his mission to make financial literacy a "kitchen table" topic, and his passion for entrepreneurship and community involvement. Stefon believes that financial education should be practical, accessible, and part of everyday conversations. We discuss the importance of teaching money skills, building financial confidence, encouraging entrepreneurship, and helping individuals and families make better financial decisions through education and experience. We also explore his hands-on approach to entrepreneurship, his commitment to community engagement, and the role financial literacy can play in creating opportunities and improving outcomes for future generations.
