Raising Money-Smart Kids with Content Creator, Lizbet Barajas

This episode features Yanely interviewing Lizbet (@LizbetTalksMoney) about how she teaches her two young daughters practical money skills at home through a simple, repeatable allowance system. Lizbet recently grew an audience of hundreds of thousands of followers on TikTok and Instagram by sharing her parental-money strategies in a relatable, highly practical way. Lizbet explains why she treats school like a "job" (rather than paying for chores), how her kids split weekly cash into spending, saving, and investing, and how she keeps it hands-on so children stay connected to what money means. For teachers, the conversation is especially useful for parent engagement and real-life classroom connections, highlighting age-appropriate language for money concepts, how to build habits over time (starting simple and adding complexity later), and why home-based routines can reinforce what students learn at school. Lizbet also shares how she maintained this system while paying off significant debt, and why adults don't need to be "money experts" to start teaching financial literacy to the next generation.
