Description

Why am I bad with money? If you’ve ever asked yourself that question or told yourself “I’m just bad with money”, this episode is for you. 


The truth: it’s not a lack of tools or knowledge that keeps you stuck. More often, it’s shame. And that shame keeps you frozen, second-guessing every decision and avoiding the very habits that could help you grow.


In this episode, you’ll learn:

✅ How to recognize financial shame or guilt and the difference

✅ Why saying “I’m bad with money” keeps you stuck and how to shift that belief

✅ Why compassion is more powerful than discipline when it comes to budgeting

✅ Four ways to release shame and make progress with your money
