Optimizing everything with your money can be a good thing — but it can also lead to feelings of a need to achieve perfection and cause immense amounts of stress. Money is meant to be enjoyed. So, let's discuss this and more in this week's episode of Money Feels!

We're your hosts, Alyssa and Bridget. Welcome to the podcast, where we talk through our money trauma and create a better understanding of building a healthy relationship with finance.

In today's episode, we discuss the following:

What does optimizing your finances look like?
Why you'll never be able to optimize everything without fail
The problem with the 'right' way to manage your money
Do Bridget and Alyssa optimize their finances?
Why you should take a feelings-first approach to your money
Should you switch banks to get a higher interest rate?
The illusion of progress versus automating your finances
Optimizing your budget
Maxing out the 'right' accounts at the 'right' time and comparison
Money only has value when it's spent
