All Things Excellence

In week four of Financial Friday, I sit down with the Budget Besties Vanessa and Shana to talk about the “B-word” in a way that actually feels freeing. If you make a limited amount or a lot of money but regardless feel like you have nothing to show for it, this conversation will help you take back control with a simple, modern system (no cash envelopes, no shame). We unpack that 55% of people say money is their #1 stress while 75% don’t actively budget—and how to flip that by giving every dollar a job, tracking net worth (not credit score), and setting up separate accounts so your goals fund themselves. Whether you’re running a household, a business, or both, you’ll leave feeling calm, clear, and a little “bougie on a budget.”

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The four-account method that makes spending simple (and stops the mental math at checkout)
• Why net worth > credit score
• Practical ways to cut waste (not joy) and negotiate recurring costs
• What budgeting looks like for entrepreneurs and busy families

Ever wondered why you handle money the way you do — why you save, spend, fear, or chase it? In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing the real story behind my relationship with money — the wins, the wake-up calls, and the emotional work that rebuilt my financial confidence from the ground up.

You’ll hear:

• The three men who shaped how I see wealth — from “small town rich” to quiet generosity.
• How my Dutch farm-girl upbringing wired me for both frugality and fear.
• What really happened when I out-earned my comfort zone — and how I had to grow my nervous system to hold more.
• The practical tools and mindset shifts I used to rebuild (expense tracking, money mantras, and yes… those $48K sticky notes).
• My top five must-read money mindset books that every woman should know.

Whether you’re a saver, spender, or somewhere in between, this episode will help you see that you’re not bad with money — you just have a money story that’s ready to be rewritten.

In this episode of All Things Excellence: Unscripted, I’m coaching one of my clients who’s an Enneagram 8 and a 2/4 Emotional Manifesting Generator. She came to our session saying, “I just want a boat to get off the island of indecision,” and if you’ve ever felt stuck in analysis paralysis, this one’s for you.

We unpack what happens when 8s under stress slide into that Enneagram 5 energy — researching, overthinking, convincing themselves that if they just learn one more thing, they’ll finally figure it out. I know these feels because I’ve lived there. Built the castle. Dug the moat. Tossed in the crocodiles and hung my no visitors allowed sign. I learned what it actually takes to get off that island and back into action.

We also dive into what it really means to niche down — not as a limitation, but as a way to find your freedom, your voice, and your flow in business and social media.

If you’ve got a million ideas, a hundred tabs open, and that inner voice saying, “I just need clarity,” this is your episode.

On this episode of our Financial Friday series I have Rachel Coons, founder of the Money Mom Club—the community that’s helped families save over $2M on groceries and trade money stress for freedom. We talk about how Rachel cut her own grocery bill by $500/month without couponing or sacrificing quality, and why ordering online can be a total game-changer for both your wallet and your health. We also dive into her 5 Pillars—groceries, planning & budgeting, side income, long-term investing, and money mindset—plus the nervous-system side of scarcity that keeps women stuck (even when we “know better”).

We’re officially kicking off our 7-week Financial Friday series, and I couldn’t think of a better way to start than with Certified Financial Planner Hilary Hoff. This conversation is ALL about money and where to begin if you feel behind, how to build your savings “muscle,” why compound interest is magic, and what it actually looks like to balance debt, investing, and everyday spending.

Hilary has a gift for making finances feel simple and empowering. We talk about the unconscious ways we spend, the myth that you have to wait until debt is gone to start investing, and why women absolutely deserve a seat at the table when it comes to financial decisions. She breaks it down in a way that feels doable, no matter where you’re starting from.

If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t know enough,” or “I’ll never be able to retire,” this episode will calm your fears and give you practical next steps—whether that’s finding $50 a paycheck or planning for long-term wealth.

In today’s episode we are coming in HOT with a major vulnerability hangover. I sat down with my own brainspotting therapist, Rachelle Richardson, the founder of Rachelle’s Room Healing Creations.

Rachelle is a trauma-informed life coach, holistic therapist, and brainspotting practitioner who helps people release emotional wounds, limiting beliefs, and self-sabotage so they can return to their true self. She’s one of my emotional pillars and honestly, I wouldn’t even have this podcast without the work I’ve done with her.

In this episode we:

• Break down what brainspotting actually is—a powerful, somatic, brain-body therapy that helps you heal at the root without having to relive your trauma
• Talk about how limiting beliefs, emotional blocks, and stored trauma show up in our daily lives, careers, and relationships
• Show you why traditional talk therapy isn’t always enough and how brainspotting bypasses your thinking brain to reach your subconscious and nervous system
• Walk through a live brainspotting session so you can see exactly how it works in real time (see YouTube link below to watch the technique!)

If you’ve ever wondered why you keep hitting the same wall in your business, relationships, or personal growth—even though you “know better”—this conversation will hit deeply. You’ll learn how your nervous system actually holds onto experiences and how to release them quickly so you can finally move forward without fear, self-sabotage, or burnout.

This episode is a must-listen if you’re curious about trauma healing, somatic therapy, brainspotting, parts work, nervous system regulation, or breaking free from subconscious patterns.

Today I’m sharing 10 self coaching questions to ask yourself when you're in champion mode. After a powerful brain spotting session last week, I realized just how many little ways I was sabotaging myself through creative avoidance, busywork and saying yes to things that don’t align that were keeping me stuck, exhausted, and playing small.

So, I sat down and did what I call an Excellence Audit! 10 questions that forced me to look at what I want most, what progress would excite me a year from now, what needs to be delegated or dropped, and why I’ve been avoiding the very things I know will move the needle.

In this episode, I’m walking you through those 10 questions. They’re simple, but they’ll confront you. They’ll expose where you’re settling and challenge you to get back into alignment with the future you actually want. If you’re tired of being overbooked, burned out, or frustrated with yourself, these questions will give you the clarity you’ve been craving.

Take them, sit with them over the next few days, and watch what shifts. Champions can only NOT win for so long ... so let's make sure that you are!
