Mother Mia! Ay yi yi! In this episode, I'm going to lay out my finances so that Mickey can help me understand where - exactly - I went wrong and what I should've done differently in order to avoid this huge tax mistake that cost me almost my entire maternity leave financial safety cushion.  I made the mistake of not discovering Wellnessfi until it was too late.
