Tracy: The Numbers Don't Lie

This episode features Tracy who is not only a fraud investigator but also a forensic accountant.  (She's also the mind behind pinktruth.com, a website geared to help expose the MLM Mary Kay.)  We talk about her love of numbers and her skill at finding the hidden nugget needed to prove her hypothesis when she is digging through mountains of data.  Tracy has launched a program on divorcemoneyguide.com to help women find where their soon to be exes may be hiding money from them.  While we didn't discuss her anti-MLM crusade, I enjoyed learning about her day job and how she has been steadfast in who she is as a person from an early age.  Her authenticity shines through and I am so grateful to have met her for this episode.
