Dr. Darla Bishop - Piggy Bank Pathways: Helping You Raise Money Smart Kids. This is episode 809 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast. 

A mother, a former high school educator/bilingual elementary school reading coach, children’s book author, and passionate entrepreneur, Dr Darla Bishop was motivated by her own challenging childhood in Detroit to help children learn. From motivating parents to transcend limiting beliefs about wealth to helping children to cultivate a positive financial mindset early in their lives, she believes that empowering families with financial knowledge is pivotal in creating prosperous and resilient communities for the future.

Dr. Darla is known as the ”FinanSis” founder of Finansis, LLC. She founded the company in order to use her innate gifts (humor, intelligence, and tough love) to help families and communities improve their relationship with money and set their children up to be financially responsible for life. Dr. Darla is all too aware of the correlation between low credit scores and short lifespan; her mission is to change that narrative.

A woman of many passions, Dr. Darla is an Author, Doula, Military Spouse, Project Manager, 15+ yr public health leadership veteran, Healthcare Consultant, Financial Accountability Partner, Professor of Health Policy, Mentor, and Real Estate Investor, but some of her proudest accomplishments are writing her children's book Madeline’s Money Adventure with her daughter Maddie and coaching bilingual elementary students in reading through “America Reads”.
