Gasp! What a name for a podcast! Podcast host Melissa Leon runs Two Sense Consulting, and she focuses on how “ambitious women can have it all without doing it all”. That is the focus of her “Efficiency Bitch” podcast as well. (By the way, “BITCH” stands for Bank, Inbox, Time, Connection, and Harmoney.) In this episode, we spent a focused 20 minutes on what IS the money fog? How can you tell if you are in a money fog? Why is it so emotional??? How do marketers and Madison Avenue tell you what you should do with your money? (We recorded this episode right before the Holidays and talked about the crazy advertising that tells us to spend, spend, spend!) And last, how does the money fog keep us from living our dreams? Melissa is a great host, and you will love this fast twenty minutes.
This conversation with Andrea Heuston, from
Wendy Valentine of the Midlife Makeover Show interviewed me on her fabulous podcast. She titled the episode “Clearing the Money Fog: Empowering your finances.” I love that. I would also call this episode, “The psychology of money”. We hit everything from where your beliefs about money come from (childhood…) to how money affects your romantic relationships. Ideally, money is the sacred tool that you use to design and live your own best life. Understanding the emotions and beliefs that surround your money will empower you and help you envision a great next chapter. Tune in to this super fun and engaging conversation.
I can’t say enough about the Make Room Show podcast with Jennifer Ford Berry. (
If you are contemplating divorce, or somewhere in the process, here is a podcast for you.
I guested on Guts, Grit & Great Business, with attorney Heather Pierce Campell. She is a fabulous business attorney who knows first-hand how stressed business owners can be when it comes to finances and running their business. Her job is to protect her clients. But how to help their financial stress? We talked about why talking about money is so hard, and how this starts for many of us in our childhoods. And we discussed the importance of putting together your own money team. We also dove into the fact that many business owners don’t know how much they need to make. How do they figure this out? And yes, we talked about the importance of sharing our money story and forgiving ourselves for past money mistakes.
I sat down with Nicole
Host Denise Vivaldo asked me back to her awesome podcast—Women beyond a certain age. The topic? How to beautify your money! Here is what I told Denise: “Beauty makes me feel like I am really living and savoring my life. So why would this be less true in our money and financial life? I want my financial life to be beautiful as well. I want to bring beauty to my money! Otherwise, it is a place of clutter and disorder (and conveys an internal message that I don’t care or honor my money—so really—since I haven’t made it a nice home, why should it stick around??!) Without beauty, my money life feels like that back kitchen drawer I resist opening, or the closet we have crammed full of stuff… So, we stay away…!”
