Your brain (and mine) is lazy. Very lazy. Your brain was designed to seek pleasure, avoid challenges, and expend the least amount of energy possible. Becuase of that, doing hard and challenging things like getting out of debt, finding a new and higher paying job, hitting a million dollar net worth are... hard. But just becuase something is hard and challenge doesn't mean you shouldn't do it. In fact, I believe that harder that something is, the more you should pursue it. For most things, the harder something is the more meaningful it is becuase the more it changes and evolves you into a better version of yourself. In this episode of The Money Love Podcast we're breaking down how to do hard and challenging things. Paige walks you through her best 5 tips that you can deploy so that you'll seek out and pursue challenging things.

Are you someone who welcomes hard things into your life or are you someone who avoids challenges in your life (and as a result ends up making things harder on yourself)? When we choose to do hard and challenging things we become stronger, we show ourselves what we're capable of, and we make our contribution to the world. Unfortunately, with everything in our world getting faster, easier, and friction-free many of us have become entitled to comfort and avoidant of discomfort. But in order to live an extrordinary life of immense contribution, we have to actively choose to do and go through hard things.  In this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast we're talking about hard things and why you should intentionally seek them out. Paige walks through the topic of comfort entitlement, explains why we are so adverse to challenge, and gives you her best three arguements of why hard things and challenges are something that you should actually run towards, rather than running away from.

You don't REALLY want more stuff. In fact, our desire for most things that we buy goes much deeper than just wanting that cute new sweater for our next date night or the organizational bins to have your produce neatly displayed in your fridge. There's always more hidden and deeper meaning behind our desires and this is exactly what I'm breaking down with my guest Renee Benes in this week's episode of the podcast.  Renee is a self-proclaimed shopaholic turned minimalist who took her family's journey of downsizing by 2,000 square feet and turned it into a global brand. She has been sharing her life stories and lessons of living with less in hopes of inspiring other people to design lives that feel bigger than stuff. In this conversation with Renee we talk about the deeper meaning behind why we want the things we do and whats really motivating your purchases at a core level.

Each one of us desires new things: financial freedom, to travel more, a new home, to be more disciplined to name a few. But is your desire destructive? Do you desire things from a place of not believing you're worthy of having it? From a place of disbelief in your capability to create in? From a place of believing that you can't feel the way you want to feel until the desire is acheived? If this type of desire sounds familiar, you're engaging in destructive desire.  In this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast we're talking about the topic of destructive desire. What it is, what it looks like, why we desire things in a way that's destructive, and how to shift out of destructive desire and into clean desire. This will be an epsiode that has you thinking about the things you want and desire in an entirely new way.

Do you feel like there's always something that you want or desire? There's always a product "finish line" that you're working towards where you tell yourself "once I have ______ I'll finally be happy". If you find yourself in this familiar pattern, you're stuck on the hedonic hamster wheel. The hedonic hamster wheel is a metaphor for the human tendency to pursue one pleasure after another and it can be a viscious never-ending cycle that can derail your spending and finances if we don't take steps to actively slow it down or get off of it entirely.  In this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast we're diving into the phenomena of hedonic adaptation and breaking down how it impacts our consumption (in not so great ways). In this value-packed episode Paige is breaking down what hedonic adaptation is, how it impacts our consumption, real life examples that you might recognize in yourself, why our brains are wired this way, and the types of consumption that will keep you on and off the hedonic hamster wheel.
