ESI of ESI Money talks about managing college costs

Episode 2220: Managing College Costs by Offering an Incentive by ESI of ESI Money

ESI Money is written by "ESI", a 50-something retiree. The site is basically a list of what's allowed him to become financially independent and how you can implement those successes in your life. His philosophy is simple and focuses on doing three simple things to achieve financial independence: earn, save, invest. There's a bit more to it than that, of course, but if you can concentrate on these three areas, they will get you at least 90% of the way there.

Courtney Carver of Be More With Less shares the morning routine effect.

Episode 2219: The Morning Routine Effect (What to Expect and How to Get Started) by Courtney Carver

Courtney Carver was stopped in her tracks with a scary MS diagnosis after decades of debt, discontent, and trying to do it all. She had to slow down, prioritize her health, and figure out what was really important in her life. She discovered what mattered most by getting rid of everything that didn’t matter at all. In the end it all came down to love and health.

She went from a busy, overwhelmed advertising director to spending 2-3 hours every morning taking care of herself, loving her work, and being present and engaged with the people she loves. Her family changed, too. They moved from wanting bigger closets, nicer furniture, and more stuff to downsizing into a 750 sq. ft apartment with no storage.

Courtney has written books, courses, and hundreds of articles to help you simplify your life and work so you can focus on what really matters.

Kiersten Saunders of Rich and Regular talks about the link between imposter syndrome and the fear of spending

Episode 2213: My Fear of Spending is a Form of Imposter Syndrome by Kiersten Saunders

Julien and Kiersten started rich & REGULAR in 2017 after their stint in real estate investing led them to discover the F.I.R.E movement. At that point, they'd listened to their friends complain about doing everything right, and still not really "feeling" happy with the financial progress they'd made. Their blog became a place where they not only shared in their frustrations, but offered solutions to a richer and happier life. They could not have imagined that just a few years later, they would sign a book deal with the world's largest publisher, Penguin Random House. But that's not all. Their blog has afforded them opportunities to work with incredible brands, world-class media and into the fast-paced world of digital entrepreneurship.
