Journey To Launch

Episode 446- Money Rules I Live By (and the Ones I Broke)


Listen Later

This week on the Journey to Launch Podcast, I’m diving into the money rules that have guided me and the ones I’ve intentionally broken along the way. Rules are meant to serve as frameworks, not prisons. Over the years, I’ve adapted, reshaped, and sometimes completely tossed out rules that no longer served me.

I want you to walk away from this conversation inspired to define your own rules, question the ones you’ve been following, and give yourself permission to evolve as your journey unfolds.

In this episode I share:

✨ Why I treat my financial goals like mandatory expenses and how that mindset changed everything for me ✨ The role of automation in reducing stress and keeping me consistent with saving and investing ✨ The importance of building a safety net and FU money, and how it’s given me the freedom to take risks ✨ The rules I’ve broken, like budgeting every penny, never using credit cards, and saving every last dollar and how shifting away from them actually helped me grow
