Meaning Over Money episodes
- 358 - Everyone Wins When You Keep Growing
Have you ever considered the fact none of us ever have a truly original idea? It’s true. Everything we do and every idea we have is born from another idea. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton takes a moment to process this idea that everything can be attributed to someone or something else. When we learn and grow, we get better and produce better ideas. Those ideas, in turn, will help other people grow and develop their own ideas. It’s the sharing of ideas that allows each of us to grow and serve others better.

11 min - 357 - The Importance of Cash…..Especially When Times Are Weird
Can we all agree that we’re entering (or already in) weird times? Unemployment is going up, inflated prices continue to rock families, interest rates are up, and political unrest is escalating. Bad news: we can’t control any of that. Good news: there is something we can control! In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton makes the argument that we need to make building cash a near-term priority. Whether you have an emergency fund or not (and we hope you do!!!!!), this might be the season you should push pause on a few initiatives and instead build up some cash. If everything works out well, you can always take that cash and do the thing you were going to do in the first place. But in the meantime, let’s steady the foundation.

13 min - 356 - You Can Only Give What You Have, And YOU Have Something to Give
In the second episode recorded at the end of a dock, host Travis Shelton talks generosity. More specifically, the kind of generosity that happens when we quit dwelling on what we don’t have, and instead focus on what we do have. Generosity comes in many forms, and many times, the non-monetary forms are the sweetest and most impactful. We hope today’s episode inspires your generosity in new and amazing ways!

13 min - 354 - Business Owners, Your Appeal to “Support Small Business” is Actually Hurting You
We love small businesses. In fact, we own and run a few small businesses of our own. We believe small businesses are the lifeblood our our economy. With that context, we ask that you listen to today’s episode with an open mind. Host Travis Shelton explains how small business owners are inadvertently sabotaging themselves when they advocate for “support small” and “support local.” There is a better way, though. After listening to this episode, we hope you find it insightful and encouraging, and perhaps a springboard for something even better. We believe deeply in small business, and believe you deserve better than “support.”

19 min - 353 - Not Every Decision Has To Be About Money: Why We Need to Prioritize Meaning
Yes, we need to be financially responsible. Yes, we need to make wise decisions. However, not everything needs to be about money. When we boil everything down to a financial decision, we sell ourselves short. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton goes on a rant about this topic, pulling in various stories from his coaching. This one hits hard, and we hope it fires you up like it did for us!

13 min - 352 - Investing So Boring That the Finance Bros Mock You
There’s nothing more enjoyable than listening to the various finance experts in our lives spouting off about hot stock tips, market timing theories, and the most recent get-rich-quick ideas. In contrast, investing done well is shockingly boring. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton shares the story of a client who endured the mocking words of all the finance bros in her life, only to crush her own investments the right way. Broadly. Cheaply. Boringly. Consistently. Patiently. Disciplined. The best way is usually the simplest way, and we hope today’s episode highlights that well.

9 min - 351 - A Crash Course On Teaching Kids How to (Healthily) Handle Money

In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton shares the basic principles, and shares how to walk alongside your kids during all three stages of their financial development lives.

20 min - 350 - Young Adults Need to Slow Their Roll: The Power of Delaying Major Financial Decisions
Nobody’s life changes as quickly and as extreme as young adults. People in their 20s will experience a lifetime worth of major life changes in less than a decade. At the same time, they are being encouraged, guilted, and pressured into making significant financial decisions. Buy a house. Get a new car. Go deeply into debt. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton explains why this advice (and the decisions that come from it) does a major disservice to young adults. Instead, we encourage young adults to slow their roll, take their time, and create a life that provides maximum flexibility for an unknown but awesome future.

15 min - 349 - Meaningful Work is Still Work: Why “Fun” Isn’t the Definition of Work That Matters
“If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life.” We hate that quote! It corrupts the idea of meaningful work and cons us into believing that our work shouldn’t actually feel like work. Truth is, even meaningful work feels like work. Rewarding, fulfilling, life-giving work…..but still work. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton hashes through this idea to portray a different picture of what meaningful work should look and feel like.
