In this heartfelt solo episode, Leah Hadley, certified divorce financial analyst and founder of Intentional Divorce Solutions, invites listeners to step into the holiday season with intention.

Key Topics:

- Reframing Abundance: Leah Hadley challenges the traditional view that abundance is about having more money, success, or things, and instead encourages aligning your life, finances, and values to find fulfillment.

- Navigating Big Life Changes: The holidays can be especially tough after a divorce, a move, a job change, or the loss of a loved one. Leah Hadley shares personal stories and acknowledges the pressures that come with this season.

- The Power of a Gratitude Practice: Learn how focusing on what you already have—and what’s working—can shift your mindset from scarcity to peace. Leah Hadley introduces a simple three-part gratitude exercise for reflecting on finances, giving, and experiences.

- Intentional Spending & Gifting: Leah Hadley shares practical tips for simplifying your gift list and prioritizing meaningful experiences over material gifts. She encourages listeners to create a “heart list” instead of a traditional gift list, and to gift presence and connection rather than expensive presents.

- Values-Based Budgeting: Create a holiday budget that protects both your finances and your peace of mind, focusing on what feels right for you—especially important for those co-parenting or adjusting after divorce.

- Creating New Traditions: Life transitions are a perfect opportunity to intentionally craft new, meaningful holiday traditions, whether volunteering, hosting a brunch, or simply taking time for self-care.

- Mindful Generosity: Generosity goes beyond spending money; it’s about sharing your time, energy, and empathy—with others and with yourself.

- Modeling Intentional Choices: Leah Hadley emphasizes that your approach to the season shapes those around you, particularly children. Expressing abundance through gratitude and presence sets a powerful example.
