154: Why We Overspend and How to Stop with Robin Valadares


Listen Later

Do you ever find yourself making financial decisions that don’t really make sense—but you keep making them anyway? Maybe it’s impulse spending, avoiding your budget, or putting off big financial decisions. In today’s episode, Linzy sits down with Robin Valadares, physiotherapist and personal finance educator, to unpack some of the biggest barriers that stop health practitioners from managing their personal finances.

Robin shares insights into the mindset challenges that many therapists and healthcare professionals face when it comes to money—often shaped by their education and training to prioritize others over themselves. Together, he and Linzy discuss practical strategies to shift those patterns, including simple financial “rules” that can help you make better spending decisions, reduce regretful purchases, and start aligning your money with what truly matters to you.

If you’ve ever struggled with overspending or felt stuck in taking control of your personal finances, this episode is full of actionable advice to help you build better money habits. Tune in to learn how to take small but meaningful steps toward financial confidence and fulfillment.
