Learning to tame your money anxiety takes some practice. I’m a big fan of this episode because I will be the first to raise my hand and shout, “I have money anxiety.” Our guest, Emily Rose, is here to enlighten us all on this topic of money anxiety. Emily is a school psychologist, yoga teacher, author of the journal Write it to Right it, and also runs the blog, MissMagnoliaSays.com. As Emily says, we all have anxiety around money, but for each of us, that looks a little different. Our biggest anxieties tend to come from the comparison trap - you know the “shoulds.” We’re all familiar with the “shoulds,” right? I should know how to invest, I should do this with my money, I should have a good credit score or I should own a house right now. It’s completely normal to run through the laundry list of things you should’ve done. In fact, Emily’s overall message is that having anxiety is actually normal. See, we all have anxious thoughts around money and that’s ok. In this episode, Emily helps you understand how anxiety might be showing up for you, ways to recognize those anxious thoughts, and some practical exercises to help you when you feel your money worries bubbling to the surface.LinksMissmagnoliasays blogWrite It To Right It JournalMoney Mindset JournalEpisode SponsorsA big thank you to all our sponsors who make this show possible:Try EveryPlate for just $1.79 per meal by going to http://www.everyplate.com and entering code mymoney179. · Give yourself – and your wallet – a break.

In this special reboot of Shannah Shares, Community Q&A, I'm sharing how to prioritize your savings goals for the big stuff.Today’s Community question comes from Robbie:"Hi there, Shannah, thanks so much for taking the time to answer my question and for all the great money content. I’m seriously learning so much. I wish I would’ve had this podcast when I was in college. I’m in my mid 30’s now and I just feel like I’m playing catch up all the time. I make good money, between my partner and me around $300K a year. We live in Chicago though and it can be pretty expensive. We’ve got some goals we’re trying to save for - a wedding, a home purchase, and a big honeymoon trip. The problem is that we save money and then we tend to blow it on things that aren’t so important or need it for emergencies or just dump stuff. Can you help us figure out how to prioritize our money goals seeing as we want to save for big stuff? I feel like I could use a little of your tough love to get us on the right track. Every article I read just says to spend less and that isn’t really helpful. Thanks again and I hope you never stop this podcast because I would be so lost money-wise."LinksLearn How to Invest as A Side Hustle & Achieve All Your Money GoalsHow to Accelerate Financial Security, Create Time Wealth & Ignite Your GoalsEpisode SponsorsI want you to start living a happier life today.

In a recent article on CNBC, more than half or 51% of Americans have less than three months' worth of emergency savings. The pandemic has definitely made a mark on savings, and in my opinion, really shown that you need more than 3 months worth of savings in your “all hell broke loose” fund. However, saving more money is often times difficult. What about making more money? In this episode, you'll learn about another idea to create passive income. Rachel Richards, who has been on this show before for her rental real estate empire, has also has built a substantial monthly income from her book sales on Amazon. Even if you don’t profess to be a writer, surely there is something you have to share - a skill, a talent, an idea, etc. Rachel’s here to pull back the curtains and share the behind-the-scenes story of how she built a cash-flowing self-publishing side hustle in just a few years, and how you can do the same.LinksRachel's Passive Income Starter KitMoney Honey bookPassive Income Aggressive Retirement bookCNBC articleEpisode SponsorsA big thanks to our podcast episode sponsors:Find out how Upstart can lower your monthly debt payments today when you go to UPSTART.com/mymoney. I want you to start living a happier life today.
