Good With Money

In this solo episode I'm talking all things THRIFTING! Shopping second hand can feel like the perfect loop hole for your little treats, without breaking the bank or the environment. But the guilt-free dopamine dispenser of shopping second hand, whether on apps like Vinted and Depop, or in op shops, charity shops and vintage stores, can lead to unhelpful behavioural cycles that leave you with more questions than answers.

In my year-long experiment of not buying any clothes, I banned thrifting too. Now, I'm learning to integrate second hand shopping back into my overall approach to clothing and style, and WOW, I learned a lot. This episode will share my insights into the dopamine trap of second hand shopping, and the skills to master in order to be able to do it mindfully.

In this solo episode I'm sharing with you the One Win Rule: a framework I developed to help you connect your beliefs and behaviours in order to break unhelpful money cycles. Whether you keep spending money when you don't plan to, or you feel like you'll never get ahead at work, or you feel like your business/side hustle is failing, the "One Win Rule" can help you intercept any pattern using principles from financial psychology.

Welcome back to another Emma's Dilemma. Today we're unpacking a curly one about what happens when we cut off one area of spending... but just spend the same amount in another area. In this episode I dive into:

• The difference between being pulled to spend on one specific area vs spending as a behaviour more generally
• An exercise to understand the unmet needs we might be responding to with spending transference
• The concept of hedonic adaptation and how we can combat it
• The PERMA model from Positive Psychology and how it can help us get more meaningful value from our money

In this episode I take you through the concept of "following up" with yourself, and how you can use it to change your behaviour in a way that ACTUALLY works for your brain, rather than against it.

Welcome back to Emma's Dilemma, where I take your dilemmas and answer them with piping hot advice on life and money. Today's dilemma is all about untangling that overwhelming feeling of having competing priorities and deciding which direction your life is going to go in next. 

In this episode, we cover:

• "Holding space" for that feeling of overwhelm
• Addressing what we're avoiding by allowing the overwhelm to win
• A matrix for helping you plot out what matters most to you
• Turning that into an action plan for what's next.
