Have you ever felt like the holiday season leaves you more frazzled than fulfilled? I have, and in this episode, I’m diving deep into why the end of the year can feel so overwhelming—and how embracing rest in all its forms can be your secret weapon against burnout, stress, and the constant hustle that dominates our lives. From exploring seven distinct types of rest (yes, there are actually seven!) and their impact on our mental, emotional, and financial well-being, to discussing the subtle differences between simply having time off and truly recharging, this conversation is all about finding sustainable peace amidst the holiday chaos. Plus, I’ll share personal stories—from my family’s favorite holiday movies to my journey with an energy coach—and reveal how rest can help you show up as your best self in 2025 and beyond.

From a young age, women are conditioned to take on more for less — whether it’s in the workplace, housework, raising children, or other unpaid labor. Today’s guest is inviting us to let go of some of these expectations and find freedom in dropping the ball. In this special replay episode, I speak to Tiffany Dufu — author of Drop the Ball: Achieving More by Doing Less and the founder of The Cru, an organization dedicated to helping women reach their professional goals. We discussed the many ways and reasons why women often take on more than they need to, and how in the process of letting go, find new freedom to achieve more in their professional and personal lives.  Tiffany’s links: Website: http://tiffanydufu.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tdufu/ Book: https://www.tiffanydufu.com/books Read transcripts, learn more about our guests and sponsors, and get more resources at: https://herfirst100k.com/financial-feminist-show-notes/you-cant-have-it-all-and-thats-a-good-thing-with-tiffany-dufu-replay/  Not sure where to start on your financial journey?

Content warning: conversations surrounding disordered eating, sexual assault, rape Hey Financial Feminists! Today’s conversation is one that’s going to challenge the way you see yourself and the world. I sat down with Elise Loehnen — New York Times bestselling author and host of the "Pulling the Thread" podcast — to unpack how the seven deadly sins have been used to keep women small and compliant for centuries. We talk about the trap of trying to be a “good girl” in a society that often tells us to stay quiet, how Elise looks to the seven deadly sins as a framework for what patriarchy sees as a “good girl” and why it’s all bullshit, and how to reclaim our desires, ambitions, and freedom by breaking the rules.

Today's episode is an important one, and the contents will affect every woman you know. I chatted with Amanda Becker — a seasoned journalist who has covered national politics for nearly two decades — about the unprecedented nature of our current political scene. We took a critical look at Project 2025 by the Heritage Foundation, a plan proposing significant changes to LGBTQ rights, gender policies, reproductive rights, and education. We broke down who's behind it and what it could mean for healthcare, labor policies, and American families. This isn’t just about politics; this is about the power of grassroots democracy and the importance of civic engagement.
