DANCE 89.5 & The Financial Empowerment Network Present:
A student-led podcast about building strong financial futures.
“This youth-hosted Financial Empowerment podcast dives into everything your school should’ve taught you about money. Whether you’re 14 or 44, Money UP gives you the tools to ask smart questions and take control of your financial future.”
Let’s be honest: most of us left school knowing how to calculate the hypotenuse of a triangle, but with absolutely no idea how to build credit, invest, or budget for the real world. That is where our youth-hosted Financial Empowerment podcast comes in. This show serves as the ultimate modern guide to everything your school should’ve taught you about money, breaking down complex financial topics into real, digestible conversations.
We believe that financial literacy shouldn’t be intimidating or exclusive. Regardless of your age, this podcast is designed for you. Money affects everyone, and it is never too early or too late to learn the rules of the game.
Hosted by the next generation, this podcast breaks down complex financial topics into real, digestible, and actionable advice.
For this special episode of Coping 101, we attended Forefront Suicide Prevention‘s Day of Hope Summit, where high school student leaders from around the Puget Sound sat down to share their WHY‘s for joining in this life-saving work, what they’re doing to help themselves and their peers, and ways that adults can maintain effective mental health conversations with young people.

Coping with life’s stresses and trauma manifests in the decisions we make. Did you know that 9 out of 10 young adults in Washington DON’T drive under the influence of marijuana, alcohol, or other drugs? Most Young Adults steer clear of driving under the influence. Make sure to plan your night out so that you and your loved ones can get home safe. We need to emphasize the positive decisions these young people are making, and this episode dives into practical ways more of us can follow their lead. If everybody takes care of their friends and family, traffic deaths will decrease and we can make a real difference in saving lives across our communities. Seattle high school seniors Dylan, Estelle, and Gavin explore these themes with David Cruz who represents the Most Steer Clear campaign, which spotlights stories and data that show the positive decisions that keep our roads – and loved ones – safe. Tune in for some education, inspiration, and some real talk from today’s youth.
