And by the end of the article, you will discover that financial freedom is possible for everyone.
Ready? Let’s dive in!
Michelle from Making Sense of Cents
Michelle Schroeder-Gardner is the owner of Making Sense of Cents. She started the blog to help her improve her finances and help others. After working as an analyst in the financial service industry, has been blogging full-time and making way more than she did as an analyst. She and her husband and dogs travel full-time and lived on a sailboat and an RV! All while blogging remotely.
What I like best about Michelle’s blog because it shares great information and is simple, with no frills. She has main pages for saving money and making money, both of which have a list of her posts with links. It’s cool because you can scan through them quickly and find exactly the kind of information you’re looking for.

The Savvy Couple
Kelan and Brittany Kline are the founders of The Savvy Couple. They started it as a side hustle and now have been able to change their financial situation while sharing information on saving money, making money, money management, and some lifestyle posts.
They were able to pay off their debt, grow their savings, and create a successful business. Their mission is to help people simplify and organize their finances to have the freedom to do more of the things they love.

Sara from Gathering Dreams
Sara started Gathering Dreams when she realized the night security guard in her office building (that had 1,000 people) knew her by name. She devoted herself to finding out everything about financial freedom and passive income so that she could start to build a life she loved. I love the simplicity of her website, and her girlfriend is the photographer who takes beautiful photos.
Her posts are approachable and filled with great super helpful information like hacks to save money, creative ways to make money, what you can sell online, what crafts are profitable. She also writes about her other passions, food and travel.

Rosemarie from Busy Budgeter
Rosemarie focuses on budgeting and making money. She also helps people with home organization. A part of her take on finances is that it is intertwined with taking care of the home. She and her husband used to struggle with debt and budgeting, and keeping up with the house. But she came up with a strategy that worked for them and decided to blog about it to help other people. I love that she shares a lot about her family and their finance and organization journey.
The website is (of course) very well organized, and they have a handy Start Here section that lays out what they do and why it works. It’s a lot of information, but they have some free starter programs to try out. So you can see if you like their programs before jumping in.

Danielle from The Million Dollar Mama
Danielle writes about personal finance and healthy living. She calls herself a personal finance nerd, and I can relate! Her message is important because she is a huge believer in living your best life, so she also writes about healthy living.
After all, what good is financial freedom if you’re not healthy to enjoy it?
She has a helpful recommendations page with money-saving, money-making, blogging, and health and well-being resources. She says her goal in life is to live a life of freedom, which can happen when you are financially independent. That is the dream.

Conclusion
As you can see from what all of these great influencers are doing, it is 100% possible to reach financial freedom. It just takes being open to looking critically at how you think about money, being willing to make changes, and trusting that it will happen when you commit to it.
Let me know if there are other personal finance blogs that have helped you in your financial journey. I love to keep finding more great information out there.
