Episode 9: Ways I save money on travel sports weekends

On this episode of the all things finance podcast we're talking about travel sports weekends and choices I make to save a little money here and there.  My name is Steph Lauritsen. I’m a Certified Financial Planner, and I’ve been in this industry for over 20 years—working with clients, teaching workshops, and speaking to groups. My goal is simple: to share relevant stories, and provide ideas and tools you can actually use in your own life—and maybe even share with a friend, coworker, or family member. My kids are ages 20, 17 and 11.  All three kids have been in travel sports for multiple sports each.  That means I've been at this for about 12 years already and likely have at least another 6 years to go.  Along the way, I've tried to save money when possible and with 5 more travel weekends for us coming up in the next 2 months, this is so top of mind for me.
