    Oct 31 2024

    This week on the podcast I’m sharing the #1 Mistake SO many women are making with their credit cards. We’re talking a mistake to the tune of thousands of dollars a year.

    Paying off your credit cards can feel daunting, especially when the monthly payments seem to keep creeping up and up over time. What gives?If you’re tired of sending huge payments to your credit cards each month with seemingly NO change in your balance, you need to listen to this.


    You don’t have to pay off your credit cards for the rest of your life, and I know it can feel that way.

    I was just like you, and it felt like Everest in front of me.

  • 131. If you're trying to pay off debt without a spending plan, you need to listen to this
    Oct 24 2024

    If you're trying to pay off debt without a spending plan, listen up.

    There are SO many reasons a spending plan supports your debt pay off journey.

    The most important reason for me?

    It keeps you from feeling restricted.

    You read that right.

    The spending plan makes it EASIER to spend money on things that make you happy.
    On things that matter most.

    NOT having a spending plan will make you feel restricted.

    If you’re stressed about paying off debt and you don’t know where your money is going, how will that latte EVER feel joyful and like a genuine treat?

    I can’t TELL you how badly I want that latte to stop feeling like a “guilty” pleasure. It should just be straight up pleasure!

    And not just the latte.

    Your personal trainer.

    Or therapist.

    The hair appointment you’ve put off for too many months.

    Even your housecleaner.

    A spending plan shows you exactly which of these go where. How they fit in the money puzzle.

    Believe me, the money for those things is likely available, but it’s going somewhere else without your plan in place.

    This week on the podcast, I’m sharing more about what a spending plan does, how to create one, and WHY WHY WHY I am so persistent in you having one.

    Listen in to the episode and let me know what YOU are excited to spend money on next month!

  • 130. 3 Types of Savings that Help My Clients Pay Off Debt
    Oct 17 2024

    This week’s episode is all about the 3 Types of Savings that Help My Clients Pay Off Debt.

    Let’s be honest… when you think about paying off debt successfully, you’re likely not going to focus on savings.

    And yet, your ability to save, I believe, is the KEY to sustainable debt freedom.

    And savings is not just for “after debt” some elusive place out in the future somewhere.

    It’s for now.

    --> Savings now is insurance against new debt.

    --> Savings now is a sigh of relief when the next unexpected expense pops up.

    --> Savings now allows you to enjoy some of your hard earned money without guilt.

    --> Savings now builds new muscles and reshapes your identity with money.

    Listen to the episode to hear the 3 types of savings and how they can help YOU on your own unique debt free journey.

    Then let me know, which of these are you most excited about starting today?!

  • 129. A big mistake women make when paying off their credit cards is this
    Oct 10 2024

    When it comes to "mistakes women make while paying off debt," I could do a whole series. Today's episode looks at one mistake I see again and again that's disguised as "a good strategy" to help pay down debt.

    Intrigued? Listen in to the episode to hear:

    • what this mistake/strategy is
    • the reasons why I think it's a mistake
    • and what I recommend you use as a strategy instead

    The strategies I teach my clients to pay off debt have helped them reach over one million dollars paid off over the past several years, and I'm thrilled I get to help you on your journey here as well.

  • 128. Sneak Peek Inside Week 1 of Moneywise Mastermind
    Oct 3 2024

    My signature program, The Moneywise Mastermind, helps women get a handle on their credit cards and gain momentum paying off debt once and for all.

    And it kicks off Monday!

    This is the fourth round running this mastermind, and it gets better and better as I work with my clients to determine how to create a program that’s totally supportive and has clear next steps.

    No one wants to join a group or 1:1 program, sign the contract and make the first payment, only to sit around for a week or more waiting for direction, a call schedule, or anything to answer the question: “NOW WHAT?”

    So I thought I’d share exactly what the first week of Moneywise looks like beginning Monday next week!

    Tune in for this week’s episode of Messy to Magnetic to hear more.
