Work with Me: (https://tidycal.com/eringray/45-min-call-with-erin)


Ever hit “Buy Now” when you're feeling stressed and then feel instant regret? In this episode, we explore why emotional spending happens and how your nervous system drives the urge to buy.  Instead of shaming yourself for overspending, you’ll learn to understand what your body is really trying to communicate.

We dive into the difference between a dopamine hit and true regulation, and why buffering behaviors like shopping, overworking, or emotional eating keep us in the same patterns.  You'll understand how to replace impulsive spending with intentional spending that aligns with your values, so money becomes a neutral tool, not a source of shame. 

In this episode, we cover:

  • Emotional spending as a nervous system signal
  • Seeking dopamine vs. feeling feelings
  • Buffering patterns like overspending, overworking and overeating
  • Money as a tool, not an emotional fix
  • The 24-hour pause to interrupt urgency
