One thing I learned from the Financial Wellness Center course is actually to be compassionate to myself regarding finances. I learned that it's normal to make financial mistakes and even some epic ones. The important thing is to always learn and reflect on the experiences. I think this mindset will help me in the future more than any specific financial hacks can do.
