Feel Confident and Secure in your Relationship With Money Are you sick of feeling overwhelmed whenever you open you bank account? Do you want to learn to spend money with intention instead of emotion? Do you want to stop staying small and have more confidence in your financial decisions? In this podcast, you will find actionable steps and emotional support to free yourself from shame and help you find peace around money. My mission is to remove the cultural stigma around money, so that you feel less alone and more equipped to start running toward your fears. If you’re ready to have a healthier and more purposeful relationship with money, you’re in the right place! I’m Meghan, a mom of 2 young boys, a financial planner, and emotional spender. Despite being a financial planner, I’ve never truly felt a sense of control over my own financial situation. Even though I had the knowledge of financial tools and strategies, I just couldn’t seem to implement and I avoided it altogether. When I finally decided to explore my relationship with money and all the thoughts, beliefs and stories that come with it, I started noticing major shifts in my spending patterns. I began feeling less afraid and started feeling calmer and more confident in my financial decisions. And I’m here to share my journey with you! If you are ready to see massive shifts in your money mindset and finally feel good when you open your bank account – this podcast is for you! Its time to start listening to who knows you best – you!

Mid-August has a vibe, you guys — and it’s kind of a strange one. Summer’s not over, but it’s fading. The structure of fall is coming, but it’s not here yet. And in this weird in-between space, our energy, emotions, and money habits can get a little wonky.
In this episode, I’m unpacking why this time of year feels so emotionally heavy — and how that heaviness shows up in our spending. Whether you’re cramming in last-minute summer fun, stocking up for a super-organized fall, or just avoiding your bank account entirely, there’s often more going on beneath the surface than we realize.

This week on the podcast, I’m digging into why it’s actually so hard to unplug – and how our constant connection to devices impacts not just our mental health, but our relationships with money too.
Topics I talk about:
-
Why “unplugging” is much harder than it seems, especially for parents and professionals juggling work and family
-
The effects of digital addiction on our nervous systems, mental health, finances, and relationships
-
How social media and online marketing create FOMO, encourage impulsive spending, and undermine willpower
-
The blurred lines between “on” and “off” in our work-from-home world—and why we rarely feel fully at rest

This week on the pod, we talk about financial anxiety! I share my own experiences and also dig deeper into the emotional and psychological layers behind it - specifically the scarcity mindset, and the emergency mindset (where we’re constantly bracing for disaster and end up stuck in a cycle of fear and over-preparing).
Things We’ll talk about:
-
Why financial anxiety thrives on silence—and what to do about it
-
How loss aversion makes spending feel like failure, even when it’s planned
-
The double-edged sword of being “too prepared”
-
How to shift from scarcity to real resilience
-
And simple ways to start feeling more confident, calm, and in control of your money

Today, I'm exploring the all-too-common experience of financial relapse—when old money habits like impulse spending, avoidance, or secrecy resurface, even after a period of positive change.
I talk about: Why it happens, coping mechanisms and emotional triggers, why its not about willpower at all, and how we can move forward with self-compassion.
