Welcome to 2025 and welcome to This Is The Year... a miniseries I created in partnership with PocketSmith. Each Wednesday in January, I'm unpacking a money goal you might have, and exploring how we can make this year the year you achieve it.  First up, we're talking getting debt free. In this episode, I'll walk you through some popular debt payoff strategies, explore the psychology around debt repayment, and how you can find a route to debt freedom that works for you. This miniseries was created in partnership with PocketSmith: the personal finance software for all walks of life. Head to www.pocketsmith.com/thebrokegeneration to try it for yourself.  Where to find The Broke Generation Website: https://thebrokegeneration.com/Instagram: https://instagram.com/the.brokegenerationTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the.brokegeneration   Sign up to The Glue: the weekly money psychology and mindset newsletter www.thebrokegeneration.com/subscribe, where you’ll also get your free Financial Values workbook.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to the annual end of year guided money reflection! Settle in with a cuppa, a notebook, and an open mind, and get ready to reflect on 2024. By looking back on what the year has held for our finances, we're able to set better goals for 2025 by meeting ourselves where we're at, doing more of what's working and less of what's not. Plus, by zooming out and looking at what this chapter of our money story has included, we can approach 2025 from the position of writing a better chapter than the last, while embracing the lessons learned from the year just gone.  If you want more reflections and support extracting your key goals for 2025, grab access to my annual Reflect & Reset two part workshop. Part 1 was delivered live earlier this month but you can still grab the replay, and part 2 will be delivered on-demand to your inbox on January 6th 2025, for you to devour whenever you're ready to kick off the year.

Welcome to our final episode of 2024! I can only apologise if the audio is a little dodgy in this ep – classic case of not realising there was an issue until it was wayyyyyy too late. Nonetheless, all part of the chaos you know and love.  Thanks for tuning into The Comments Section this year! Save the date on Thursday 6th February in Sydney CBD for a fun IRL event that you're gonna love! Have a happy and safe new year, and as Victoria Vivente says: wear your seatbelt.  Over and out.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome back to The Comments Section with your favourite chaos queens, Emma and Victoria! This week, we explore how money anxiety influences your spending habits, whether it’s splurging out of stress or holding back when you shouldn’t. We also unpack the importance of celebrating life’s non-traditional milestones and how viewing your life like a business—with a mission, values, and strategy—can help you take control of your finances and choices. Episode highlights: How money anxiety impacts both overspending and underspending. The value of celebrating unconventional achievements unapologetically. Using business strategies to make intentional life and financial decisions. If you’ve ever struggled to manage your money or felt unsure about celebrating your wins, this episode will leave you inspired and equipped to rethink your approach.

In this episode of The Comments Section, we explore the complexities of convenience and how it influences our spending choices. With the rise of modcons (modern conveniences, yes it's a real term!), we ask when paying for ease really adds value and when it’s just a clever marketing trap. We weigh the cost of time saved against the convenience of tech, gadgets, and delivery services, questioning if they truly solve our problems or create new ones. We also share practical ways to create convenience on our own terms, without the hefty price tag. From rethinking the convenience of certain purchases to offering simple, budget-friendly solutions, we share ideas on how to simplify life without sacrificing quality. We want to know—what’s your ultimate modcon? Hit us up on socials and let us know! With thanks to our sponsors, Wallace Advocates and Lending Solved.

Welcome back to The Comments Section! In this episode, we unpack what it really means to be good with money. Is it the numbers in your account, or is it the behaviours and attitudes you cultivate along the way? Inspired by personal stories and fresh insights, we explore how saving alongside debt repayment can rewire your relationship with money and why financial success is about progress, not perfection. From redefining financial goals to embracing the idea that change happens in the doing, this conversation will challenge how you measure worth and success. Plus, Victoria shares the scoop on her upcoming book, Know Your Worth, a deep dive into healing your relationship with money and yourself. You can pre-order here: Know Your Worth, Victoria Vivente (9781923022430) — Readings Books Episode highlights: The surprising economics of generational “hotness.” Why saving while paying off debt can shift your money mindset.
