_______
Jannese Torres takes you through her journey of stepping into motherhood while juggling entrepreneurship—and how she financially prepared for this life-changing chapter.
She breaks down the key steps she took to plan for maternity leave, build a maternity fund, and create passive income streams to support her growing family. You'll also learn about the power of automation in business, long-term financial planning (yes, even saving for your little one’s future!), and why having a strong community matters more than ever.
