Meet Kristin Geosits

Kristin Geosits, co-host of the Have You Tried Being Rich podcast, blowing a bubble gum bubble in promotional photography for the personal finance podcast.

Kristin works in the financial industry, but she’s the first to admit she’s still figuring things out too. She’s passionate about honest conversations around money, work, and success, especially the kind that don’t come with unrealistic advice or a side of “back in my day…” energy. Kristin gets especially fired up by financial advice that ignores today’s reality of rising prices, impossible housing markets, and the fact that no, gas is not $1.99 anymore.

She believes most people are learning through trial and error, regardless of what their LinkedIn profile says, and that having a career in the financial industry definitely does not mean having all the answers. Expect candid conversations, relatable chaos, and occasional questioning of who decided adulthood was supposed to make sense in the first place.

Say Hey to dria benjamin

Dria Benjamin, host of the Have You Tried Being Rich podcast, holding a fan of $100 bills during a promotional photoshoot about personal finance and wealth-building.

For Dria, financial education is less about pretending to have life perfectly together and more about helping people feel confident figuring it out as they go. She brings realistic, approachable perspective to money conversations for the generation balancing rent, burnout, side hustles, and the rising cost of literally everything.

Dria believes financial wellness shouldn’t feel like a lecture from someone who bought their first house for the price of a modern parking spot. She’s more interested in practical conversations that actually meet people where they are without shame, judgment, or pretending anyone has everything perfectly together. Expect relatable stories, realistic perspectives, a little humor, and the comforting reminder that most people are just improvising their way through adulthood anyway.
