208: Abundance without Burnout: Building a Life of "And" with Tiffany Sauder
What if your life didn’t have to be a trade-off? CEO, mom of four, and “Life of And” creator Tiffany Sauder joins me this week to share a practical, compassionate way to stop living in either/or and start building a full, values-aligned life where self, career, and family coexist. We talk about starting with “triage” (fix the thing causing the most bleed first), the power of explicit agreements at home (like setting a clear cap on travel nights), and Tiffany’s Venn-diagram model for creating “decided harmony” across the three big circles: Self, Career, and Family. You’ll learn to spot the three alter-egos that pull you out of balance—the Grumpy Servant, the Lonely Achiever, and the Fearful Loyalist—and how to course-correct with minimums, boundaries, and simple scripts your family can rally around. This is an empowering, rubber-meets-road conversation for high-capacity women who want abundance without burnout—and fewer overspending band-aids along the way.

206: How To Trust Yourself with Money with Emily Romero, Creator of The Self-Trust Model
Do you ever feel like you can’t trust yourself with money—or even with the promises you make to yourself? You’re not alone. In this episode of the Overcoming Overspending Podcast, I sit down with self-trust expert Emily Romero, creator of the Self-Trust Model and author of You Can Trust Yourself. Together, we unpack why self-trust is the foundation of real change—and how rebuilding it can completely transform your relationship with money, spending, and yourself. Emily shares her powerful Self-Trust Compass, a four-part framework that helps you: Get radically honest about where you are (and where you want to go) Learn to keep (and break) the right promises with integrity Regulate your nervous system so you can tell the difference between anxiety and intuition Truly know yourself so you stop outsourcing decisions—and start trusting your own wisdom If overspending has left you second-guessing yourself, stuck in shame, or feeling like you’ll never follow through, this conversation will show you why the path back to financial peace starts with self-trust. Because when you trust yourself—you can handle anything life (or your bank account) throws at you. 💕 Find and Work with Emily: Her Website Buy Her Book: You Can Trust Yourself Listen To Her Podcast: The Self-Trust Podcast Work with Paige: ONLINE MASTERCLASS: Why smart, successful women overspend - and what really works the break the cycle Join Overcoming Overspending HERE Connect with Paige Online: Her Website IG: @overcoming_overspending TikTok: @overcoming_overspending Subscribe to Paige's YouTube Channel

202: The Art of Splurging with Michela Allocca from Break Your Budget
You’ve heard the warnings about overspending. But what if the real block to your wealth is… not spending enough? In this episode, I’m joined by Michela Allocca, the founder of Break Your Budget, to explore something rarely talked about in the financial world: the art of splurging. We dive deep into how spending more in the areas that light you up and less in the ones that you don’t isn't reckless, it's strategic. Inside the episode with Michela, we cover: How she shifted from chronic underspending to a relationship with money rooted in trust, pleasure, and abundance. Why underspending can be just as damaging as overspending—and how both come from the same scarcity-driven patterns. The mindset behind intentional splurging—and how to decide where your money creates the most value and joy. A behind-the-scenes look at Michela’s real-life “splurge strategy,” including where she spends with intention and where she consciously saves. If you’ve ever felt guilty for spending—or afraid to enjoy the money you work hard for—this episode will reframe everything. All of Michela's information can be found in the shownotes below. Enjoy!
