77: Are you winning or losing?
Are you winning or losing with the purchasing decisions that you make? Many of us don't even realize that when we are spending money, we are making an exchange of value. We get so numb to swiping our credit cards that we forgot to evaluate if we're making a positive winning exchange with our money or a negative losing exchange with our money. The truth is that every time you spend money you are giving yourself the opportunity to either increase the level of value in your life, or decrease the level of value in your life. The choice is yours, but your spending can be a tool that you use to fill up your life to the brim with value. Sadly, most of us don't use it that way. This week on The Money Love Podcast we are talking about a concept I created called the spending value exchange which is one of my 5 qualities of being a good spender. We talk about what the spending value exchange is, why it's important, what it looks like to be on the winning side, and also what it looks like to be on the losing side of the exchange. It's a concept that will take your spending habits and your financial results to the next level. It's how we transform our spending from being an act filled with questioning, shame, and regret to an act that empowers us and helps us reach our next-level self. This is a transformative episode you won't want to miss.

76: Your Financial BFF
Many of us rely on the black and white "rules" of money that we feel we "should" be following to inform our financial decisions. When we do this, we create lives and financial realities that don't reflect our purest desires but rather a version of our life that is based on obligation. But what if instead, we could use another tool besides these restrictive money rules to guide and inform the way we receive, have, and release money that allows us to create what we actually want? A tool that empowers us to live into the truest and purest vision of what we genuinely desire. This tool is the future version of yourself. The wiser, more mature, more experienced, wealthier version of you, and she is out there wanting to help and guide you, but she also is depending on you to go out and find her and to make her a reality. In this episode of The Money Love Podcast, we're talking about the amazing tool of tapping into your future self and how she is your financial BFF. We cover what your future self is, how to uncover her and how to get super specific on who she is, what she looks like, and the life she lives, and how to use her guidance and wisdom to inform your future spending choices and money decisions. This is a tool that can be a total game-changer for you if you take the time to discover her and get to know her on a deep level.

75: The One Thing You Can't Avoid
It's impossible to create the financial results that you want without experiencing discomfort. We are all programmed to believe that we can make choices with our money and with our spending where we can avoid discomfort altogether. We can't. Discomfort is coming along for the ride whether you want it to or not. With discomfort, the question isn't "Will I feel it?". The question is rather "When will I feel it and to what extent?". When we impulsively make purchases and when we overspend, we are making the choice that is going to help us avoid discomfort in the short term. But when you do that consistently, you're not actually avoiding the discomfort you're trying so badly to escape. You're really prolonging and amplifying the discomfort to a future moment that your future self will have to deal with and clean up on a larger scale. So the choice comes down "Do I want to feel a smaller amount of discomfort right now? Or feel it on a larger scale in the future?" This is the question we are exploring on this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast. When we realize that discomfort is something that can't be avoided we can start to embrace it and start making more disciplined choices with our spending that help us create the financial results that we want. Running away from discomfort just creates more of it. Embracing it creates less of it, so let's all embrace it.

74: When You're Not Spending
Have you ever thought about what you're buying yourself and what you're creating for your future self when you're not spending your money? For those of us who love to shop and spend, we view having and saving our money as the opposing force to what we really want. We think that having your money is boring, restrictive, and unnecessary. But what if I told you that wasn't the case. What if I told you that you get to go shopping with every dollar you earn and the question isn't "Should I save or should I spend?" but rather "I get to go shopping. What do I want to buy myself? Something tangible or something intangible?" In this episode of The Money Love Podcast, we're talking about a groundbreaking concept about what you buy for yourself when you're not spending. We explore what the opposite of spending is, the difference between having and saving your money, what you buy yourself when you're spending and not spending your money, which is more valuable, and how to shift your mindset so that regardless of what you choose (spend or don't spend) you win and feeling amazing about your choice. This episode will truly change the way you manage your money for the better. Enjoy!

72: Your Spending Self-Concept
What do you believe to be true about you? The thoughts that you think about yourself are the most important thoughts you think because they form your self-concept. Our self-concept feeds how confident, worthy, and capable we feel when it comes to managing our money at the highest level and it's constantly either working for you or against you. The truth is, you are a self-fulfilling prophecy. The thoughts that you think about yourself will come true through the way we are designed as human beings. Whatever you think about, you will bring about. This is why your self-concept when it comes to your finances and your spending is so important. It is the beginning and end of every financial result you create. In this episode of The Money Love Podcast we're talking about one of the most underappreciated yet most impactful thought work concepts there is, your self-concept. In this episode, we explore what your spending self-concept is, the most common self-concept of overspenders, why your self-concept matters, how it always ends up proving itself true, and how to form a positive self-concept that serves you in creating the financial results you desire. This episode will show you the importance of the thoughts you think about the most important person in your world, yourself. Enjoy!

71: The Spending Shame Cycle
Have you ever felt ashamed over a past money decision you've made? Maybe you bought an item impulsively, you spent money you didn't have resulting in debt, or you bought an item you didn't get any use out of. If you've felt shame about your past spending choices you're not alone. Shame is a deep-rooted and prevalent emotion that keeps us trapped in secrecy and judgment and if not dealt with properly keeps us from reaching our full financial potential. In this episode of The Money Love Podcast we're talking about a concept I call the spending shame cycle that keeps us stuck financially and repeating practiced spending behaviors that don't serve us in the long run. We explore the areas of our finances where shame is most prevalent, the difference between shame and guilt, where shame comes from, the four phases of the spending shame cycle, why it's so difficult for us to break out of and the process we can go through to lessen the grip that shame has within our finances and over our life. If shame is an emotion you feel is prevalent within your relationship with money this episode is one that will be an absolute game-changer. Enjoy!

70: Money Well Spent
What's the best money you've ever spent? A time when you spent your money on an item, service, or experience where you felt good spending the money in the moment and you still felt amazing about the purchase a week, month, or year later? This is what I call "money well spent". Money that is spent where the value or result that you get from what you bought is more valuable to you than the money that you spent to acquire it. My ultimate goal is to help you align your spending so that most, if not all, of the money that you spend is money well spent. This week on The Money Love Podcast we're diving into four ways that you can spend your money that are scientifically proven to boost your happiness and satisfaction levels. These "money well spent" categories work because they touch on core needs and desires that we have as human beings like self-love and connection with others. If you want to feel happier, your money is a tool that can deliver that happiness to you. This will be an episode you don't want to miss. Enjoy!

69: Consumer Culture Is Lying To You
Consumer culture bombards us with lies aimed at making us spend money on unnecessary items. It equates self-worth with material possessions, leaving many feeling unfulfilled. Advertising often uses emotional manipulation, especially targeting parents to link products with their children's safety. The promise of happiness through accumulation is critiqued, urging a shift toward internal fulfillment and meaningful relationships. Prioritizing personal growth and intentional spending can lead to true happiness.

68: Finding Balance With Your Money
Your brain is not wired for balance. Your brain is wired for polarization. Your brain loves black and white all or nothing thinking and in all aspects of life, your brain wants you to pick a side and to not entertain that the opposite could be true. This is what quiets the cognitive dissonance between possibilities and creates the certainty that your brain is always seeking. This is even true in the way that we think about money which becomes problematic because when you're not thinking about money in a balanced way, you will not have an emotional experience with money that is balanced which means you won't manage your finances in a balanced way. You will live in the extremes, in the all or nothing, which closes you off to new possibilities and reaching your highest potential. In this week of The Money Love Podcast we're talking all about balance and how to create it within your finances. We start with exploring why achieving balance in life is so difficult and why our brain fights balance, how so much of the common money messages we absorb don't promote balance, and the steps that we can take to create a more balanced mental, emotional, and tactical management style with our money.
