Good With Money

A rainbow literally appeared while I was speaking to you in this episode and if that's not a sign to open your mind up to all the ways you maybe CAN do the thing your brain is telling you you can't, I don't know what is. 

In this episode I take you through a simple mindset shift that'll take you from fixed, restrictive thinking to a mindset of possibility and opportunity – and you'll barely recognise your finances once you try it.

One of your MOST LOVED eps from last year was all about upgrading your life without spending a fortune, so I'm back with more ways to do exactly that. From what you drink your morning coffee out of, to how you unwind when you're stressed, these 10 little upgrades are absolutely overflowing in lifestyle value and bang-for-buck.

Ever feel like your brain is constantly running a background tab called "am I spending this right?" This episode is all about quieting that noise.

Money rules can help you simplify your financial decisions and allow money to be a resource in your life. Instead of relying on willpower in the moment, your 'personal policies' let you pre-decide, so your future self doesn't have to.

In this episode, we break down what money rules are, why they work (hint: systems always beat willpower), and how to build your own using a simple three-part framework.

In this episode I'm talking about a piece of advice that has come up over and over again in conversations about money in recent months, which is this: manage your money and your life like its a business and you're in charge.

Developing emotional intelligence around your money is a critical part of being good with money – but we're not taught how to do it. Starting with this business-style approach to managing your money helps you see it like a tool, rather than an extension of your identity or a representation of your worth.

Highlights:

• Treating your life like a business to give you the clarity you need for success
• Allocating funds to your different life "departments"
• Being proactive and reactive accordingly
• Investing in growth and efficiency
• Adopting a "margin mindset"
• Identifying when your lifestyle isn't viable (and what to do instead)
• Viewing things from a big picture perspective by taking an annual approach to expenses
