Avoid The Retailer Mind Tricks that get you to Overspend

2026-11-0513:25

The holiday season is when the big retailers pull every psychological lever they have to get you to spend the most money. Most of those tricks work best when you don’t notice them happening. So I’m exposing the ones you’ll run into this Black Friday, in stores and online. I find that when I know what’s going on, I can see through the trick a little bit, and I’m a lot less likely to lose control of my spending. You can still buy what you want to buy. You’ll just be making a cleaner decision ab...

7 Types of Beliefs that Makes Up Your Money Mindset

2026-10-2923:05

If you’ve done money mindset work, found the limiting belief, and can see exactly where the story started, but you still can’t make the change, the problem might not be a belief at all. Most people make the mistake of believing their entire mindset is belief structure. And what it takes to clear a belief is not what it takes to clear a judgment. There are seven types of mental structures that make up your money mindset, and I’m listening for every one of them when I work with a client. Each o...

If you’ve done the money mindset work and nothing really moved, I want you to hear this one.

What I’ve noticed after a lot of hours coaching people is that most of us are doing this work from inside t...

2026-10-1534:47

I've been reading people's transactions since 2013, and food comes up for every single client. By the time a lot of us get home at the end of the day, we've already made about 7,000 decisions, and dinner is just one more. The money tied up in that one question isn't small either. For a lot of my clients, it's enough for a vacation. So I brought on Jen Chapin, a working mom who's been making cooking videos on YouTube since 2018, to talk about taking some of that mental load off without pretend...

How to Create a Holiday Budget

2026-10-0808:33

Holiday spending can get stressful fast, and it's not just the money. It's the mental load of everything that comes with the season. I like to have clients start thinking about their holiday budget early, because that's when we still have some wiggle room. If you wait too long, things can get a little nuts. In this episode, I'm walking through how I'd actually set up a holiday budget so it doesn't end up on the credit card. We're also getting into the awkward conversations around gift-giving ...
