I often say there are two worlds of money: the one that lives in your bank account, and the one that lives in your head. And the only way to make that second world real is to talk about money, which many people are hesitant to do.
But I have been behind the scenes of so many peoples’ bank and investment accounts, and deep in conversation about their money stories. Over the years, I have witnessed firsthand the power of words when it comes to creating their reality–and financial future.
I’ve watched a client shift from saying “money is easy come, easy go” to “money is easy come, easy stay, easy grow,” and before long her account balances synced up with that mantra.
I’ve also had clients report that they stopped fighting with their spouse about money once they started talking openly about it–and they were able to accomplish so much more when they were on the same page.
Talking about money might seem like a tiny, negligible part of your wealth building experience–but it’s not! It’s transformative, and that’s why the third step of my 7 Steps to Wealth framework is Speak.
In this episode, you’re going to hear the nitty gritty of how my upbringing and money story influenced my financial outcomes, how I rewrote that story by changing the way I spoke about money, and you’ll walk away with new, empowered ways of thinking and speaking that you can use to replace old money stories that don’t serve you.
You really can lead your experience and results with money with your speaking, and changing the words you use will change your life. Listen to this episode and you’ll understand why!

If you're going to be financially free, you need a plan for your wealth that doesn't require you to tick and tie and count and measure and categorize every single day.
You need a plan for savings. You need a plan for spending. You need a plan that will ride the ups and downs without tanking your goals. And you need that plan to be as elegant and easy to execute as possible.
Today we’re getting into step two of our series on The 7 Steps to Wealth: Plan. This episode is going to walk you through exactly what you need to do to create a financial plan that will help you accomplish your goals–without sacrificing your comfort, sanity, or enjoyment along the way.
I want you to live a life you like, and even a life you love, but we have to make the numbers work. So I’m going to share the exact system that helped me dig myself out of multiple six-figures of debt and achieve financial freedom for our family.
This cashflow management plan is so effective that I still use it to run a multi-seven figure business, and help my clients manage their wealth so they can accomplish their financial goals in a values-aligned way.
The best part? You can automate all of it. 🪄You just have to start. I’ll tell you how.

Have you decided to be rich?
That might seem like a very straightforward question, and most people would probably say, “Of course I’ve decided to be rich. I’m listening to this podcast, after all!”
But I think most people haven’t truly decided to be rich yet, and I want to dig into what I mean by deciding to be rich: Are you making decisions every day that help you build and preserve wealth?
Most people who have decided to be rich (in theory) are (in practice) actively deciding to spend money in the moment… at the cost of saving it for the future. They’re more caught up in maintaining the appearance of being wealthy than achieving financial freedom–an expensive endeavor in the short term, and an incredibly costly mistake in the long term.
Decide is the first of The 7 Steps to Wealth, a framework that I use with my clients and in my own life, because to be truly wealthy, you have to do what most people won't: You have to decide, every day, to be rich.
I’ve talked about The 7 Steps to Wealth many times before, but this episode is the first time I’m doing a focused deep dive into what it really means to decide to be rich–in theory AND in practice–so that you can put these steps into action in your life and achieve true financial freedom.
Are you ready for it?

It’s been about five years since I last spoke with today’s podcast guest, George Kinder, but it feels like just yesterday we talked about how good financial plans enable you to achieve life goals–and what freedom means.
Since then, he’s managed to write another incredible book called “The Three Domains of Freedom,” so I was incredibly excited to bring him back onto the podcast to talk about what it means to experience freedom, the power of mindfulness to change the world, and how to identify whether or not you’re living your purpose.
It’s hard to believe that George was once a math major at Harvard because his life’s work is rooted in emotional intelligence now, but as he points out, that's one of the beautiful things about life: we're constantly learning–hopefully to be better people–and that’s how civilization grows!
George’s energy is absolutely infectious, and this was such an expansive conversation about true freedom, mastery of the present moment, and unlocking the possibilities that are at your fingertips. I hope you walk away as inspired as I did!

Hey Money Lover, today we’re doing something a little bit different, inspired by a post I saw on Instagram. Someone had screenshotted a crowdsourced question from Reddit, then brought it over to Instagram to offer commentary on the situation.
I was reading this post and attempting to collect my jaw off the floor the whole time, because it was a series of those “Am I the A-hole” or “Should I leave him?” posts where someone is describing a financial issue they’re having with their partner–all husbands, in this case.
The only thing going through my head as I read horror after horror was, “Yes, girl, YOU CAN LEAVE HIM.” You don’t have to sacrifice your security or well-being for someone else’s financial mistakes!
I know it’s not that simple, but it pains me to see women held back in their lives because of unhealthy financial partnerships and limiting beliefs; that’s actually a big part of what fuels the work we do at Hendershott Wealth Management, where our mission is to see women and their partners healthy, wealthy, and thriving.
So, today, I wanted to read some of these posts, react to them, and break down what we can learn about the expectations, assumptions, and Money Operating System® issues baked into some of these financial woes. Then I’ll talk about where things went wrong, and whether or not I think these couples will be able to make it right. 👀
Full disclosure: You’re gonna hear my big sis/mama bear/money maven/CFP® professional-self come out, with a serious side order of sass for these bros and their dumb choices. And while my expertise is in financial matters, I couldn’t help but comment on what else they might be bringing to the table.
And hey, if you know someone who’s living these stories–or maybe see yourself in some of them–I hope it’ll give you a little bit of a loving kick in the butt to act in YOUR best interest, even if you’ve been conditioned not to. Because if you smell BS… take out the trash. 💩

Emotions and money are so intertwined because our feelings are a part of everything we think and do. But a lot of people ignore or avoid their emotions because they don’t know how to identify or regulate them–and that’s a costly mistake.
While that might feel easier in the moment, you end up missing out on a lot of important information–and those blind spots can cause you to make choices that aren’t aligned with your values or long-term goals.
According to today’s guest, Jess Robson, the only way to course correct is by learning how to connect with–and regulate–your feelings.
Jess is a copywriter turned EQ coach (more on what that means in the episode) who helps people grow their emotional awareness and intelligence so they can work with their feelings, instead of against them.
In this episode, we talk about how you can use the information your emotions contain to make better, values-aligned choices that keep you on track for your long-term goals–rather than derailing you.
Jess explains where our feelings come from, how our emotions influence the stories we tell ourselves, and how those stories impact the choices we make. We also dig into the relationship between our emotions and money stories–and how we can write a new story that creates a better outcome.
Listen to hear the way Jess describes the way our feelings keep us stuck, the power of leaning into tension and increasing your capacity for trying something new, and how you can use feelings like fear to help you accomplish big things… instead of keeping you small.
From creating the space for big feelings to the impact of the Cycle of Market Emotions on our financial decisions, we covered a lot of ground in a short amount of time. (We’re both swift talkers! 😆)
I hope you walk away from this conversation feeling empowered, inspired, and with even just a little more courage, so you can face your feelings instead of fighting them–and build a life that allows you to thrive.

“The sandwich generation” is used to describe people who find themselves taking care of their kids and aging parents… while trying to take care of themselves, too. (That part gets left out sometimes.)
Today’s guest, Max Mayblum, prefers to call this group the caregiving generation, because they care for people on all sides of the age spectrum–and that’s who his business is created to support.
Max has been in digital healthcare for most of his career. When his aunt was diagnosed with terminal cancer and his parents put their lives on hold to take care of her, Max wanted to help as much as possible, so he put his skills to work looking for resources online.
What he found was a very broken system. Max witnessed the emotional and financial toll that caregiving took on his parents, and he knew they wanted to spend every possible moment with his aunt–not navigating logistics and applications for funding.
The whole process was a nightmare, and Max found himself having conversations with his parents about other families who would be facing similar issues, without a digital health expert to help them figure it out.
His desire to scale his experience from his household to help caregivers throughout the rest of the country led him to found Givers.
Caring for a loved one can be an expensive and time consuming ordeal, and without the right support, covering those costs can derail the plan for a child to go to college, delay retirement for years, or keep people from getting the care they need.
Max created Givers to connect caregivers with existing funding and support in their state, without getting lost in the process. His company mapped the programs available in all fifty states, and built an algorithm that generates a step-by-step guide to help users access the programs they need so they can be paid for caregiving.
A major problem isn’t the availability of resources, it’s the awareness of and access to them. When it comes to funding, if you don’t use it, they lose it–and as Max pointed out, you won’t get what you don’t ask for. (I agree!)

Today’s guest is someone who wants you to make money as much as I do: Kelli Thompson, executive coach and author of the book “Closing the Confidence Gap: Increasing your Peace, Potential, and Paycheck.”
Kelli joined me on the podcast to talk about some of the biggest myths when it comes to salary negotiations, explain just how much your negative beliefs are costing you, and share scripts to help women confidently ask for more.
While working as an HR professional in the corporate environment, Kelli got to see firsthand how job negotiations played out–and how detrimental those conversations were to women who, for the most part, weren’t confident talking about money.
She made it her mission to see that change, and adopted this mantra: Nothing bad happens when women talk about money.
(I wholeheartedly agree.)
In this episode, we talk about tactical approaches to negotiation, using market data to support your position, and biases that impact your earning potential–so that you can recognize and overcome some of the obstacles that get in the way of making more money and building your wealth.

Get ready Money Lovers, because Alyssa is in the HAUSE!
Alyssa is my little sister, and she has been a part of Hendershott Wealth Management since its inception–and–we worked together before that at our father’s firm.
Don’t worry, I didn’t completely poach her from my dad’s business. In fact, she still works there! But when I started HWM, she came to work with me part-time because I was able to offer her a more flexible schedule and work environment as she grew her family.
Alyssa started out doing my bookkeeping and helping with paperwork (as an act of sisterly charity, apparently!) and these days she is a client-facing advisor and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional.
In this conversation we talk about why we work together so well, what can cause tension and rifts in family businesses, and what we’re working towards (and forward to!) in the future.
Love, your Money is a podcast about finances and relationships, and building a life that aligns with your vision and values. Alyssa and I couldn’t be more different, and even though we’ve taken very different paths in life, I am incredibly grateful to have her on my team–professionally and personally.
There are plenty of horror stories out there about drama when hiring a family member, but you’re honestly not going to find that here. There’s a ton of love, loyalty, and trust–and we know that’s the kind of thing money can’t buy.

This week’s guest on Love, your Money is no stranger to us at Hendershott Wealth Management… because she IS one of us!
If you listened to the last few episodes of the podcast, you know that it’s anniversary month at our firm: We are celebrating a decade of building wealth and helping our clients pursue (and achieve!) financial freedom.
We know you can accomplish so much more when you’re supported by the right people, which is why we’re big advocates for investing in your team. That’s why today’s conversation is with someone I (and my clients!) have come to rely on, a.k.a. my best hire ever, Jen Rupp.
Jen is the Director of Financial Planning here at Hendershott Wealth Management, and my right hand woman. Our firm truly wouldn’t be in the place it is today without her help. After all, having two big brains is better than just one, right?
When Jen raised her hand to join us at HWM, it was a one-woman show with some light admin support. I wanted to build a team that was happy and thriving in their life working at our firm, and that green flag gave Jen the confidence to leave a firm she was with for 12 years to create something revolutionary (at the time) with me.
I trusted that by focusing on excellence in service, we would see our way through to a successful business and building a legacy that matters–and 10 years later, we know now that service is important, yes, but really, it’s all about the people.
Listen to this conversation for a rare behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of Hendershott Wealth Management, and the conversations that have shaped the foundation of our firm up til now… and hopefully for decades more to come.
