️ Growing Good Humans Podcast Event: Paying for College Made Simple—Live Q&A with Liane Crane and Laura Barr
Episode Recap:
We were so excited to welcome Liane Crane back to our podcast for a special College Finance Ask Me Anything edition! ✨
Liane was our featured college finance expert, helping families truly understand the cost of college and how to pay for it.

As a parent of three college students herself, she knew firsthand the stress and excitement families face—and how to make the journey a little smoother.
