I Date Money: Own Your Money • Build Cash Flow • Multiply Wealth

In this deeply vulnerable solo episode of I Date Money®, host Lisa Drennon shares what no one tells you after divorce: the financial trust you once had—with your partner and yourself—might feel broken. Even if you were the one managing the money… even if you chose to leave… the rupture is real. But it’s not permanent.

This episode is a healing blend of soulful storytelling, nervous system support, and practical rituals that reconnect you to your money and your inner wisdom. From a powerful aroma reset to the question that will anchor your financial confidence—“Can I trust myself to care for me now?”—Lisa walks you through a nurturing process to rebuild financial self-trust from the inside out.

Whether you’re hiding Amazon packages, second-guessing every expense, or still replaying money mistakes from the past—this episode is your permission slip to pause the shame spiral and rise, one sacred choice at a time.

Topics Discussed:

• How divorce impacts your energetic and emotional relationship with money
• Why financial trust often breaks down after separation—even for the money-savvy
• The truth about financial infidelity (and hiding purchases from a partner)
• How to shift your nervous system from panic to peace with an aroma reset
• Sacred money rituals Lisa teaches inside her Wealth Accelerator
• A journal prompt to uncover hidden beliefs keeping you stuck
• The most powerful question to ask when rebuilding trust:
• Can I trust myself to care for me now?
