Feel like you've tried everything to stop overspending? No-buy challenges, daily account checks, value-based budgeting, and still nothing sticks? You're not alone.

In this episode, we're unpacking the hidden emotional drivers behind compulsive spending and explaining why willpower-based methods often fall short.

This episode is for you if:

💸 You always feel like you're "doing better" until payday hits 💸 You spend to escape or numb, then feel guilty right after 💸 You have debt, no savings, and are stuck in paycheck-to-paycheck mode even though you're earning 💸 You wonder if you should just cut yourself off from spending, but you know that hasn't worked before

What We'll Cover:

💰 Why the "fuck-it" shopping spree is a totally normal response (and what to do instead) 💰 The emotional parallel between overspending and dieting 💰 How to find your actual financial baseline and why math doesn't lie 💰 Why guilt and anxiety won't get you out of this cycle 💰 The four overlooked culprits of chronic overspending and how to journal through them 💰 What to do when your numbers look bleak and your spirit feels tapped out

If you're tired of trying band-aid solutions, this is the deeper mindset work most financial advice skips over. Make space, grab your journal, and let's unravel the real reason you're stuck in spending survival mode.
