227: 5 Money Leaks Keeping You Broke (and How to Fix Them Fast)

Welcome to Money Simplified, the finance podcast dedicated to helping entrepreneurs achieve financial clarity, master their money mindset, and align their financial energy for unstoppable success. 

Money is more than budgeting and P&Ls, but it’s also those things too. After all, you can’t be a powerful CEO if you’re running away from your numbers. 

Your host Aimee Cerka, Money Confidence Coach, blends practical financial strategies with deep mindset work and emotional regulation, empowering you to make confident financial decisions and break free from financial overwhelm.

Whether you’re just starting out in entrepreneurship, managing your cash flow, or focusing on business growth, this show is for you. Aimee’s mission is to help you move from financial stress to clarity, guiding you on how to align your budget, your money mindset and your energy with money, so you can reduce stress and gain financial confidence.

You don’t need to work harder to fix your finances, but you do need a holistic approach that combines step by step financial strategy, mindset rewiring, and emotional/energetic alignment. Each episode will help you simplify your finances, expose limiting beliefs, and create actionable steps for lasting financial peace and empowerment.

Your finances don’t have to be a source of stress. When you stop trying to outwork the numbers, and run from your past mistakes then you’re able to step into unstoppable finances, build an unstoppable business, and truly enjoy your unstoppable life.
