If you've been waiting for a sign to finally get your money together… This is it. In this episode, I'm sharing a simple but powerful shift that might completely change the way you think about money—and why you've been feeling stuck with it. Because here's the truth: Most people think the point of money is to save it. To hold onto it. To not lose it. But what if that belief is actually keeping you stuck? In this episode, I break down a concept that will challenge everything you've been taught: The point of money is to spend it. Not recklessly. Not impulsively. But intentionally. We're diving into: * Why money exists (and how misunderstanding this creates overspending or hoarding) * The difference between intentional vs. impulsive spending * How to balance spending for your present life vs. your future * The 3 key factors that determine whether your spending is helping or hurting you: → When you spend → How you spend → What you spend on * Why spending is the most important financial skill you can master This episode will help you move out of guilt, shame, and confusion… and into clarity, control, and confidence with your money. But here's the part most people miss: Knowing what to do is not the same as actually doing it. If you've been listening to the podcast, taking it all in, and still feeling stuck… still telling yourself "I'll start next month"… still wondering where your money is going— That's exactly where deeper support makes the difference. Inside Overcoming Overspending, you don't just learn this work—you apply it. You get: * Coaching on your real-life spending decisions * Accountability to actually follow through * A clear process to move from impulsive → intentional * And a community of women doing this work alongside you So if you've been thinking about joining… If you've been waiting for the "right time"… This is your sign.

225: The Identity Shift that Empowers you to Do Hard Things with Julie Mann, Rewire & Rise Coach

What if the reason you're stuck with your money… isn't discipline—but your relationship with discomfort? In this episode, I'm joined by Julie Mann, The Rewire and Rise Coach, to talk about one of the most important (and overlooked) skills you can build: Your ability to do hard things. Because here's the truth: Your brain is wired to seek pleasure, avoid pain, and conserve energy. Which means… by default, you will avoid discomfort. But the life you want? It lives on the other side of that discomfort. In this conversation, we break down: * Why avoiding discomfort is keeping you stuck in overspending patterns * The difference between destructive discomfort vs. productive discomfort * How your identity shapes whether you follow through (or don't) * Why doing hard things in one area transforms every area of your life * The neuroscience behind building new habits and rewiring your brain * How to start becoming someone who actually keeps promises to herself We also talk about something most women completely overlook: ✨ The power of celebration in rewiring your brain ✨ Why you're likely ignoring evidence that you can do hard things ✨ And how to start building an "I can do hard things" identity—starting today Because it's not that you can't do hard things. It's that your brain has learned to avoid them. And once you understand how to work with your brain instead of against it, everything starts to change.

224: The Power of Your Perspective

What if the biggest thing keeping you stuck with money… isn't your spending—but your perspective? In this episode, I'm sharing a powerful coaching call from inside the Overcoming Overspending community all about how your mindset shapes your financial reality—and why changing the way you think can completely change the results you create. Because here's the truth: Your circumstances don't determine your outcomes. Your perspective on them does. Inside this episode, we dive into: * Why your mindset is either building you up or breaking you down * How negative self-talk keeps you stuck in a cycle of shame, scarcity, and inaction * The neuroscience behind why harsh inner dialogue triggers fight-or-flight (and blocks progress) * Simple, practical reframes to shift out of "I'm behind" or "I'm broke" thinking * How to move from negative → neutral → empowering thoughts (without toxic positivity) You'll also learn two of my favorite tools to transform your relationship with money: ✨ Your Inner Money Mean Girl – how to separate yourself from the critical voice in your head ✨ Your Money Alter Ego – how to step into a more confident, empowered version of yourself Because the goal isn't to never have negative thoughts… It's to stop believing everything your brain tells you. When you shift your perspective, you shift your emotions. When you shift your emotions, you change your actions. And that's how you finally start creating different results with your money. If you've been feeling stuck, discouraged, or caught in the same patterns with your finances—this episode will help you see things differently… and start moving forward.

223: What to do when you just don't care about your money anymore

If you've ever found yourself thinking… "I just don't care anymore." About your money. About your spending. About fixing it. This episode is for you. Because here's the truth: It's not that you don't care. Something deeper is going on. In this episode, we're unpacking what's really happening when you hit that "I don't care" phase—and how to get yourself out of it. After coaching thousands of women through overspending, I've seen this pattern over and over again: You get tired. You get overwhelmed. Things don't go as planned. And eventually… you shut down. But that shutdown? It's not apathy. It's emotional exhaustion. Inside this episode, you'll learn: * Why "I don't care" is usually not the truth * What's actually driving your "F it" spending moments * How to handle those daily decision moments when you want to give up * What to do when life knocks you off track and you feel like starting over isn't worth it * How to rebuild hope and momentum (even when you feel burnt out) If you've been stuck in a cycle of overspending, avoidance, or feeling disconnected from your money this episode will help you come back to yourself—and start moving forward again.
