What does it actually take to build wealth as a woman today?

In this episode, I'm joined by Haley Sacks (aka Mrs. Dow Jones) for a powerful conversation about money mindset, overspending, investing, and the identity shifts required to become a "future rich person."

Building wealth isn't just about making more money. It's about changing the way you think about money, spending, and yourself.

Inside this episode, we talk about:

• Why so many women were conditioned to believe it's "cute" to be bad with money
• The hidden mindset patterns keeping women stuck in overspending cycles
• Why building wealth starts with learning how to stop spending everything you make
• The difference between impulsive spending vs. values-based spending
• How to create "action money" (the gap between inflow and outflow)
• The role of automations, investing, and negotiation in building long-term wealth
• Why investing is actually less risky than not investing at all
• And how to become someone who consistently follows through with money

Haley also shares her powerful IBIZA framework for shifting your money mindset and explains why identity—not information—is the real key to financial transformation.

If you've been waiting for a sign to finally get your money together…

This is it.

In this episode, I'm sharing a simple but powerful shift that might completely change the way you think about money—and why you've been feeling stuck with it.

Because here's the truth:

Most people think the point of money is to save it. To hold onto it. To not lose it.

But what if that belief is actually keeping you stuck?

In this episode, I break down a concept that will challenge everything you've been taught:

The point of money is to spend it.

Not recklessly. Not impulsively. But intentionally.

We're diving into:

• Why money exists (and how misunderstanding this creates overspending or hoarding)
• The difference between intentional vs. impulsive spending
• How to balance spending for your present life vs. your future
• The 3 key factors that determine whether your spending is helping or hurting you: → When you spend → How you spend → What you spend on
• Why spending is the most important financial skill you can master

This episode will help you move out of guilt, shame, and confusion… and into clarity, control, and confidence with your money.

But here's the part most people miss:

Knowing what to do is not the same as actually doing it.

If you've been listening to the podcast, taking it all in, and still feeling stuck… still telling yourself "I'll start next month"… still wondering where your money is going—

That's exactly where deeper support makes the difference.

Inside Overcoming Overspending, you don't just learn this work—you apply it.

You get:

• Coaching on your real-life spending decisions
• Accountability to actually follow through
• A clear process to move from impulsive → intentional
• And a community of women doing this work alongside you

So if you've been thinking about joining… If you've been waiting for the "right time"…

This is your sign.

What if the reason you're stuck with your money… isn't discipline—but your relationship with discomfort?

In this episode, I'm joined by Julie Mann, The Rewire and Rise Coach, to talk about one of the most important (and overlooked) skills you can build:

Your ability to do hard things.

Because here's the truth: Your brain is wired to seek pleasure, avoid pain, and conserve energy. Which means… by default, you will avoid discomfort.

But the life you want? It lives on the other side of that discomfort.

In this conversation, we break down:

• Why avoiding discomfort is keeping you stuck in overspending patterns
• The difference between destructive discomfort vs. productive discomfort
• How your identity shapes whether you follow through (or don't)
• Why doing hard things in one area transforms every area of your life
• The neuroscience behind building new habits and rewiring your brain
• How to start becoming someone who actually keeps promises to herself

We also talk about something most women completely overlook:

✨ The power of celebration in rewiring your brain ✨ Why you're likely ignoring evidence that you can do hard things ✨ And how to start building an "I can do hard things" identity—starting today

Because it's not that you can't do hard things. It's that your brain has learned to avoid them.

And once you understand how to work with your brain instead of against it, everything starts to change.

What if the biggest thing keeping you stuck with money… isn't your spending—but your perspective?

In this episode, I'm sharing a powerful coaching call from inside the Overcoming Overspending community all about how your mindset shapes your financial reality—and why changing the way you think can completely change the results you create.

Because here's the truth:

Your circumstances don't determine your outcomes. Your perspective on them does.

Inside this episode, we dive into:

• Why your mindset is either building you up or breaking you down

• How negative self-talk keeps you stuck in a cycle of shame, scarcity, and inaction

• The neuroscience behind why harsh inner dialogue triggers fight-or-flight (and blocks progress)

• Simple, practical reframes to shift out of "I'm behind" or "I'm broke" thinking

• How to move from negative → neutral → empowering thoughts (without toxic positivity)

You'll also learn two of my favorite tools to transform your relationship with money:

✨ Your Inner Money Mean Girl – how to separate yourself from the critical voice in your head ✨ Your Money Alter Ego – how to step into a more confident, empowered version of yourself

Because the goal isn't to never have negative thoughts…

It's to stop believing everything your brain tells you.

When you shift your perspective, you shift your emotions. When you shift your emotions, you change your actions. And that's how you finally start creating different results with your money.

If you've been feeling stuck, discouraged, or caught in the same patterns with your finances—this episode will help you see things differently… and start moving forward.

If you've ever found yourself thinking… "I just don't care anymore."

About your money. About your spending. About fixing it.

This episode is for you.

Because here's the truth: It's not that you don't care. Something deeper is going on.

In this episode, we're unpacking what's really happening when you hit that "I don't care" phase—and how to get yourself out of it.

After coaching thousands of women through overspending, I've seen this pattern over and over again:

You get tired. You get overwhelmed. Things don't go as planned. And eventually… you shut down.

But that shutdown? It's not apathy. It's emotional exhaustion.

Inside this episode, you'll learn:

• Why "I don't care" is usually not the truth
• What's actually driving your "F it" spending moments
• How to handle those daily decision moments when you want to give up
• What to do when life knocks you off track and you feel like starting over isn't worth it
• How to rebuild hope and momentum (even when you feel burnt out)

If you've been stuck in a cycle of overspending, avoidance, or feeling disconnected from your money this episode will help you come back to yourself—and start moving forward again.

In this masterclass-style episode, Paige walks you through her three core pillars for going from impulsive spending to intentional spending — without restriction, guilt, or rigid rules.

🎧 In this episode, you'll learn:

• The real difference between impulsive spending and intentional spending

Why is it so hard to make decisions today that benefit you years from now?

In this episode, we're diving into one of the most powerful — and underused — tools for long-term financial change: Future Financial You.

You'll learn why most people struggle to delay gratification, why saving and long-term planning feel unnatural to the brain, and how the lack of connection to your future self keeps you stuck in short-term patterns — even when you know better.

We'll explore the neuroscience behind future-self connection, why vague visions don't pull you forward, and how to stop trying to buy transformation through aspirational spending. Instead, you'll learn how to build your future from the inside out — through identity, emotional capacity, habits, time, and relationships.

This episode walks you through a powerful framework and reflective exercise that helps you turn your future self into a real source of accountability — not through discipline or restriction, but through self-respect and care.

🎧 In this episode, you'll learn:

• What "Future Financial You" actually is — and why she matters

• Why most people feel disconnected from their future selves

• How this disconnect fuels impulsive spending and short-term decisions

• The difference between aspirational spending and real transformation

• Why vague futures don't motivate action — but vivid ones do

• The 5 core areas that define your future self (beyond what she owns)

• How to use visualization to stay aligned with long-term goals

If you want to make better decisions today without relying on willpower — this episode will change how you think about money, identity, and your future.

Why do so many people start the year feeling motivated — and then quietly give up on their goals just weeks later?

In this episode, we're breaking down the real reason most goals don't stick, and it has nothing to do with discipline, willpower, or motivation. The real issue is that most people approach their goals with interest instead of commitment — and when uncertainty shows up, they quit.

You'll learn why nearly half of people abandon their goals by the end of January, why your brain would rather cling to the certainty of failure than tolerate the uncertainty of success, and how misaligned expectations cause people to give up right before progress compounds.

We'll talk about the neuroscience behind quitting, the emotional discomfort that shows up in the "messy middle," and how to reframe uncertainty as a sign that you're actually doing something right — not wrong.

This episode will help you stop abandoning yourself when things get hard and start building the emotional resilience required to follow through on what you say you want.

🎧 In this episode, we cover:

• The critical difference between being interested in a goal vs. committed to it

• Why most people quit when progress isn't linear

• How uncertainty triggers your brain to give up prematurely

• The "valley of disappointment" and why dreams die there

• How to build tolerance for discomfort instead of running from it

• What commitment actually looks like when motivation fades

If you're ready to stop starting over, tolerate uncertainty without quitting, and become someone who finishes what she starts — this episode is for you.
