Why You Keep Sabotaging Your Finances (And How to Stop)

Ever felt like you’re bad with money or constantly wondering why you can’t seem to get ahead even when you’re working hard? This episode of Get Rich is for you. Host Molly Benjamin chats with Catherine, financial planner, money coach, and human design practitioner, about why we fall into money self-sabotage patterns (like doom scrolling and overspending) and how to finally break free.

You’ll learn:

• How childhood money stories shape your financial habits
• The most common ways women self-sabotage with money (and how to spot them)
• Practical tools to stop impulse spending (including the “urge journal”)
• How to set up a simple bank account structure that actually works
• Why money mindset is just as important as money management
• What to do if your partner isn’t on the same financial page
  
  

Catherine shares inspiring real-life client transformations from paying off tax debt, to rebuilding after divorce, to finally finding financial freedom.

If you’ve struggled with overspending, want to feel more confident with cashflow, or are ready to align your money with your values, this conversation will give you the tools and motivation to take action today.
