358: My Top 3 Money Mistakes (AKA Lessons)

Lessons, not Mistakes: Transforming Your Relationship with Money In this episode, Tonya Leigh discusses reframing money mistakes as money lessons. She shares three personal money lessons she has learned and how she has grown from them. The first lesson involves being scammed by a store in Aspen and realizing the importance of not making purchases out of pressure or scarcity. The second lesson involves selling stocks during the market downturn in 2020 and learning the importance of understanding investments and seeking expert advice. The third lesson involves hiring an interior designer and not thoroughly reading the contract, leading to unexpected costs and the importance of asking questions and understanding financial agreements. Leigh emphasizes the need to forgive oneself for past money mistakes and focus on designing a wealthy self-image. She also promotes her upcoming workshop, The Money Garden, where she will teach participants how to nurture and enjoy their financial garden.
