Welcome to a community dedicated to empowering individuals through financial education. The Stacey Tisdale Community is not just a space; it's a movement, led by Stacey Tisdale, a pioneer in financial journalism and a relentless advocate for financial well-being.


The reasons our financial lives often feel like a struggle is because they are a lot more complex than dollars and cents. Our finances are reflections of:

Award-winning financial journalist, critically acclaimed author of The True Cost of Happiness: The Real Story Behind Managing Your Money, and financial behavior expert, Stacey Tisdale, is on a mission to remind us of what we’re really made of, and teach us how to bring that best-self to our finances.
After investing nearly $90 mln per day in the U.S. Treasury and Money Markets for a commodities firm on Wall Street, and years of reporting for some of the greatest news organizations in the world including Wall Street Journal Television, CBS, CNN, PBS, The Today Show, and Black Enterprise, Stacey’s frustration with watching the psychological and emotional toll money took on people’s lives, regardless of their financial circumstance, sent her on a 6-year research study to uncover what really drives our financial behavior.

Stacey also knew the struggles of her personal journey…Having to distinguish herself in the challenging worlds of Wall Street and global media as a financial and economic champion, a role many, Stacey herself, during some moments of doubt and imposteritis, did not envision a Black woman to have.
Her findings and insights, laid out in her critically acclaimed book; The True Cost of Happiness: The Real Story Behind Managing Your Money, was one of the pioneering works in holistic approaches to financial planning
The factors that drive our financial choices and behavior not only run deep, but also represent the way we define ourselves. From there, they reveal how this truth will determine if you can create the kind of financial harmony that not only supports the life you want, but also makes an honest statement of who you really are.
The questions this community will ask you to examine are challenging, but essential, because if your financial choices and behavior are not aligned with your true values, you'll always feel flawed. It is this disconnect that is at the root of most anxiety and unhappiness over money.

We’re here to remind each other that nothing is missing and you are capable of creating all of the wealth and abundance you and your future generations will ever need. You will get the knowledge, the tools, the financial expertise, and the support and techniques you need for ‘true Self-awareness.’ Stacey will share her insights and introduce you to an exciting roster of thought leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, celebrities, and people from all walks of life to be forever part of your squad. The road to financial freedom is a worthwhile journey that will reacquaint you with the deepest dimensions of yourself - The you beyond the limitations the world or even your own mind may perceive. Cheers to unlimited wealth, abundance, and possibilities!
