This is because your worthiness is inherent and has always been (and always will be) a part of you.   In this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast, we are talking all about the important topic of worthiness. We are breaking down what worthiness i...

Gina was able to slash her grocery bill from $1,200 to $400 a month for a family of four and the...

Spending is a skill, which means that it's something that we can practice to get better at over time. It also means that we can be a good spender if we have mastered the skill of spending, or a not so good spender if we haven't.

Want to know the one thing that is costing you hundreds, if not thousands of dollars over your lifetime? It's when we abandon ourselves and our true desires, lie to the people that we love and aren't honest about what we really want, put the opinions of others before our own, say "yes" when we really want to be saying "no" or saying "no" when we really want to be saying "yes". This is people-pleas...

We all have an inner mean girl inside of us that is keeping us small, stuck, and broke. Your inner mean girl is a  bully because she tricks you into thinking that staying where you are is the safest bet. She tells you that your future potential is dictated by your past results and experiences. She lies to you and tells you what she knows you need to hear in order to act against your own financial...

If you said yes to any of these things, this week's episode of The Mo...

This week on The Money Love Podcast I am walking you through one of my absolute favorite financial tools to curb impulse shopping and overspending which is a "Things I want to buy" list: a running list of purchases that you currently are thinking about pulling the trigger on but haven't yet.

If so, you're not going to want to miss this week's episode of the podcast where we are talking all about financial sacrifices and why they are something that should be embraced and welcomed rather than dreaded.

On average you think 60,000 thoughts every day. Although many of these thoughts are subconscious and go unnoticed, your mind is still a place that can become weighed down with thoughts that we hoard that don't help us create the results that we want. With so much mental chatter we feel pulled in a million different directions and oftentimes we end our days feeling like we're running on autopilot i...

When you think about the cleanliness and clarity of your finances what comes to mind? Does it feel like your finances are in a frenzy, or do your finances feel purposeful and intentional?

When you look at your external world and the things that fill it up does it align with who you are and what you desire most? Is there alignment there?

We live in a culture obsessed with stuff and with acquisition and we've...

When it comes to the way we think about money, negative emotion and the way that the world works there are so many ways that we have it all wrong.
