What’s one of the most overlooked pieces to building wealth? No, it’s not making more money. The secret is in understanding your money story. Your money story operates automatically in the background every second of the day, influencing how you spend and save your money. As our guest Kara Stevens, founder of The Frugal Feminista and author of Heal Your Relationship with Money, says, “Often, the money stories that we have held as adults aren’t even our money stories—they are inherited and unexamined money stories from our childhood.” The truth is your parents honestly were trying to do their best with money. It’s not their fault they got emotionally tripped up by money or made certain choices. But all those choices influenced your money story and where you are today. So, if you want to start growing wealth, you need to start by rewriting your money story and removing what doesn’t fit any longer.

Have you ever wondered why, despite hurdles like the gender pay gap and career interruptions, women who start investing frequently achieve higher returns than their male counterparts? Today on Everyone's Talkin' Money, I sit down with Jessica Spangler, author of "Invest Like a Girl," to uncover the secrets behind this financial phenomenon. We offer insights into how both women and men can harness their unique strengths to thrive as investors. The journey to financial literacy starts early, and the conversations had around the family dinner table can echo into our adult lives in profound ways. Our discussion takes a personal turn as Jessica, and I reflect on the differing financial narratives we were exposed to growing up, how they've sculpted our attitudes towards money, and, more importantly, how we can redefine what it means to be an investor. This episode peels back the layers of investment strategies, revealing that it's not the complexity but the consistency that often leads to success. In this episode, We discuss why women are better investors (and how men can adopt what women do well) How to prioritize your investment accounts and figure out what you should invest in first How to manage risk without breaking into a sweat LINKS Invest Like a Girl book Jessica's website Jessica on TikTok CONNECT WITH SHANNAH Thank you for being a part of our community!

Is creating a will and a trust the best money move you can make? I thought you’d never ask. I know it’s never fun to think about death and all the dark stuff, but a will and trust don’t have to feel like you’re watching a horror movie. Patrick Hicks, Head of Legal at Trust and Will, shares why creating a will and a trust might be your best money move this year in this vault episode. It's definitely one of my top money moves to make because it's not enough to just make money, you also need to protect it.

Do you save for retirement or pay off your student loans? That’s the 64-million-dollar question I’ve been asked repeatedly. The good news is you might not have to choose between the two.

OK, so what do you need to know? Robert Farrington, the creator of The College Investor and America’s Millennial Money Expert and Student Loan Debt Expert, is back on the show to break down all the ins and outs.

In this Ask Shannah episode, I’m covering some of my favorite tips to save money inspired by a question from Brett. This question comes from Brett – "Hi, Shannah, thanks for taking the time to answer my question. I’ve listened to this show since 2016, and even though you’ve changed it up over the years, it’s still one of my favorites. There are a lot of dude money podcasts, but I really like a softer approach and one that feels very non-judgmental. So thank you. I’m in my late 30s and doing pretty well financially, but I always seem to end the month without being able to save a lot of money. Am I doing something wrong? Can you give me any ideas of how much I save and any tips or tricks that you have to save money every month? Thanks a ton.” LINKS Thank you for being a part of our community!
