Shari is back with another Best of 2025 episode. This time we are talking Boring Money Moves, it is one of her 40 Money Moves at 40 episodes she released in September.

Mindset matters — but without solid systems, it won’t get you very far. In this episode of 40 Money Lessons at 40, we’re talking about the unglamorous money moves that quietly build real stability.

This is the stuff that doesn’t trend on Instagram but actually changes your financial life: paying yourself first, living one month ahead, setting up simple bank systems, and creating routines that remove stress instead of adding it.

We’ll walk through why “leftover money” never works, how to stop feeling behind even when you’re earning more, and why boring consistency beats financial chaos every time. You’ll also hear how small structure creates freedom, how to avoid emotional spending traps, and why the right systems make confidence inevitable.

If you’re ready to stop starting over and start feeling steady, this episode is your foundation.
