About Essence Diary

About Samara

Hi! I’m Samara Cammock. My goal is to teach people how to build good financial habits and create generational wealth.

I am a personal finance nerd who loves learning, reading about money, and teaching others the best ways of making their finances work for them. I have learned over time that when you take small steps towards your goals they are easier to achieve than if you wait until later in life to tackle larger issues like debt or saving for retirement.

I help people get their financial house in order by teaching them how to build good money habits, save more money, make smarter decisions with their finances so they can live the life they want to lead!
