I'm sharing 12 money lessons that really made a difference in how I handle my finances. We're talking about things like planning for the long term, being smart about spending in a world full of temptations, and making sure your spending matches up with what really matters to you. I also get into understanding your own 'money story,' the importance of not always going for instant rewards, and saving money without a specific goal in mind. Take a listen to get all my tips and tricks for building a better relationship with your money, making the most of it, and using it to make your life better.

Episode highlights:

• Shifting perspective from immediate spending to long-term savings.
• The importance of aligning your spending with your values - your bank statement reflects your priorities.
• Saving money without a specific goal.
• Understanding that discomfort and resistance is a normal part of changing habits.

“There is no shame in saying to yourself, ‘Look, I need to spend some time learning how to better decide where my money goes, learning how to be resilient to these things, learning how I spend, looking back at where my money has gone, actually getting a handle on where my money is going.’"
