Faith, Finances & the Dumpster Fire: Breaking Money Myths with Janine Mix

What if the money stories you've been told—especially in the church—are actually holding you back from stepping into the life God has for you? In this powerhouse episode of Diamonds in Dumpster Fires, Melie sits down with Christian entrepreneur, speaker, and best-selling author Janine Mix, who went from living in a cockroach-filled apartment and $120,000 in debt… to building a multimillion-dollar life by 33. She's the host of the Permission to Prosper podcast and author of Buy the Damn Coffee—and she's here to bust some serious money myths, especially the ones that keep women of faith broke, burned out, and stuck in shame. Together, they unpack: Why financial shame is so rampant after divorce—and how to ditch it The truth about whether debt equals failure (spoiler: it doesn't) Why starting over financially isn't the end—it's a plot twist with power How to talk about money (yes, even the ugly parts) with faith and clarity How to rewire limiting beliefs around money using Janine's "Mix Shift Method" What the Bible really says about wealth, generosity, and stewardship (hint: it's not what you heard growing up) This is the episode for you if you're tired of toxic money advice, done with the false humility around success, and ready to rewrite your financial story—with faith, strategy, and zero shame.
