Money is everywhere. Even when we can't see it, its effects can be felt: abundance and scarcity, sharing and leverage, faith and fear. It is an expression of value, but ... Value to whom? And why? How did we get here? Brett Heaton Juarez explores these questions and more throughout a thoughtful Millennial money chronicle, from his quintessential suburban upbringing outside of Chicago to the harsh realities of nonprofit youth work, and the highs and lows of joining finances with his Compton-raised wife, pivoting careers, and supporting a growing family - all while chasing his dreams and seeking to make a difference in the world. This book won't provide financial advice. But it will go deeper to connect the dots between messy feelings, in your head and in the news, and in your bank account. It is an invitation for you to look in the mirror and reflect on your own relationship with money. Earning and spending, saving and giving, borrowing and investing; no choice is neutral. Every dollar has an impact. That's how you create Change From Your Dollars. "In person, Brett is a man of few words and a lot of action. I was one of the teens he writes about that needed a ride home. I grew up with barriers like that, but now I travel the world sharing my gift. He lived out the lessons he taught us. With compassion, wit, and tact he saw my adversity back then and still challenged me to build an accomplished life." - Khari Turner, artist "Brett translates the language of money into value systems which is critical in financial education and empowerment for me as an autistic person. I am a business owner, a creative, and an activist. Brett's work helps me to create meaning from money and connects the dots for the perspective I need." - Moorea Seal, author/designer Find out more about how you can create Change From Your Dollars by visiting www.changefromyourdollars.com
