About The Thought Card Podcast & Host Danielle Desir

In a nutshell, I am passionate about helping people be intentional with their money and make informed financial decisions. But it doesn’t stop there. I geek out over saving money and finding creative ways to spend it. Some people call me “frugal” but I prefer “budget-conscious” or “wealth-conscious”. I believe in saving and splurging on the experiences that matter. I’m not opposed to spending money. I’m just opposed to wasting it.
I’ve traveled to over 27 countries by scoring cheap flight deals (from sites like Thrifty Traveler Premium) and leveraging credit card rewards to travel more.
