Have you ever felt guilty about wanting more money? Have you ever felt shame around wanting to charge more or get paid more? This special ‘Best of 2024’ episode of Financial Feminist tackles the deep-seated societal narratives that discourage women from pursuing financial security and independence and exposes the double standard that exists around money and wealth. Men are celebrated for their financial success, while women are expected to be selfless and prioritize the needs of others, often at the expense of their own financial well-being.

This episode is a must-listen for any woman who wants to challenge the status quo and build a life of financial freedom.

Have you ever felt like the holiday season leaves you more frazzled than fulfilled? I have, and in this episode, I’m diving deep into why the end of the year can feel so overwhelming—and how embracing rest in all its forms can be your secret weapon against burnout, stress, and the constant hustle that dominates our lives.

From a young age, women are conditioned to take on more for less — whether it’s in the workplace, housework, raising children, or other unpaid labor. Today’s guest is inviting us to let go of some of these expectations and find freedom in dropping the ball. In this special replay episode, I speak to Tiffany Dufu — author of Drop the Ball: Achieving More by Doing Less and the founder of The Cru, an organization dedicated to helping women reach their professional goals. We discussed the many ways and reasons why women often take on more than they need to, and how in the process of letting go, find new freedom to achieve more in their professional and personal lives.
