Everyone's Talkin' Money

When was the last time you found yourself emotionally spending money? In this episode, you'll discover the allure and consequences of revenge spending, a phenomenon many have succumbed to this year (including me). As the pandemic disrupted our sense of control, indulging in shopping provided a dopamine rush that momentarily eased the strain. However, while it may offer solace for our well-being, its impact on our finances deserves scrutiny. Join us in this enlightening summer vault episode as Dr. Jaime Peters, Assistant Dean and Professor of Accounting, Finance, and Economics at Maryville University, sheds light on the concept of revenge spending. Let's explore how to balance spending and achieving financial goals and explore crucial considerations in the face of a potential recession.LINKSJamie's websiteThank you for being a part of our community!

In this Ask Shannah, I'm debunking my top 10 money myths that I think you need to know about, inspired by a question from a listener, Loraine. Many money myths or misconceptions are easy to believe because we don't openly talk about them, like the myth that renting is throwing away money. I'm debunking a lot of juicy myths in this episode.Links*Special announcement*Sign up now for my course, Unf*ck Your Money, which is open until April 3rd, and only available for 20 people.

What if your thoughts create your results? That’s a powerful question for me. I’ve had a life-long relationship with negative thinking and creating my own money drama. It’s easy for me to think of something positive, but right behind it is a nagging negative thought - what if it doesn’t work out? What if I’m not good enough? What if it all falls apart? Do I really deserve this, etc.? Here’s the kicker, though, as our guest Dielle Charon, certified life coach 7, figure sales expert, and host of the Black, Banked, and Booked out Podcast says - you’ve first got to have the courage even to put that big thought in your brain and help self-coach yourself to success. Now, Dielle is an entrepreneur powerhouse, and we start out the conversation by talking about her strong belief that entrepreneurship is the key to emancipation and why this matters. But whether you’re an entrepreneur, a 9-5 ‘er, or a stay-at-home parent, you’re going to find a lot of life-changing advice in this vault episode, including how to simplify your thoughts around money, the keys to self-coaching yourself, common money mindset blocks, 5 money questions to ask yourself right now, and ways to have both a profitable side hustle and a 9 to 5 job with ease, if that’s your jam.LinksBlack, Banked, and Booked Out podcastDielle's websiteDielle on InstagramThank you for being a part of our community!

In this Ask Shannah episode, I'm performing a Budget Rescue for Abigail, who wrote, "I’ve tried everything to reach my money goal of saving $4500 for a trip to Europe I want to take; I’ve eaten mac and cheese for a month, tried furniture flipping, and rented out a room in my house for a few months, but nothing is working. Please, Shannah, I need your help." We go deep and break down Abigail's numbers, and I offer some suggestions for how she might be able to finally reach her goal of saving for a trip.LinksThank you for being a part of our community!

Did you ever have bad dreams when you were a kid? Maybe you thought something was lurking in your closet or under your bed - the boogie monster. Now, that boogie monster might be replaced by bad dreams about money. Our guest, Meghan Dwyer, a Certified Financial Planner and host of the Money Isn’t Scary podcast, is here to remove all those bad money dreams and help you go from financial fear to financial freedom. I get that money might feel scary - it’s a primal need, and you can’t escape it. So, how do you move money out of the scary place? In this episode, Meghan will share some truths and words of wisdom to help you do just that. We talk about why envisioning the future is so important, how planning for the unexpected can actually help money be less scary, and why it’s really okay to like money despite what society might lead you to believe. Whether you’re in full-on scarcity mode or want to feel more confident about your money, this vault episode is for you.LinksMoney Isn't Scary podcastFinancial Abundance: It's OK to Like MoneyThank you for being a part of our community!

What is a prenup, and do we need one? A question from Brian and Tracey inspired this episode of Ask Shannah. They have friends who recently got a postnuptial agreement and are curious about how they work and if it makes sense for them. As controversial as they might be, if you're thinking about a prenup or a postnup, the first place you should start is getting some education about these hot-button documents. Jennifer Guimond-Quigley is joining us on this episode to demystify what you need to know about prenups and break down the differences between postnups in a fun and easily digestible way (no crazy lawyer speak here, just a totally educational and enjoyable conversation).LinksLaw Offices of Jennifer Guimond-Quigley5 Signs You Need a PostnupThank you for being a part of our community!

Have you ever said to yourself, “It’s too late for me to learn about money. I’ll never know enough to get ahead.” or, “I’ve made too many mistakes, I’ll always be in debt,” or “If I just made more money, I’d be a lot happier.” These are very common beliefs that we share about money. Just the other day, I was having a conversation with a friend, and she said, “Shannah, I’m just tired. I’m in my 40s, and I haven’t saved enough money; I feel like a real failure,” so she inspired this episode because I think it’s time we talk about these money beliefs that hold us back. One of the things I love the most about hosting this show for the last nine years is getting to make some really great friends who also host equally amazing money podcasts and bringing them together to talk about money topics that I know are top of mind for you, like this episode. Jordan Grumet, aka Doc G., host of the Earn and Invest podcast, and Joe Saul-Sehy, host of The Stacking Benjamins Show, are joining me to shatter these common money beliefs so they can no longer hold you back from reaching your goals.LinksEarn & Invest podcastThe Stacking Benjamins ShowUnf*ck Your Money course waitlistThank you for being a part of our community!
