Grocery Shopping & Saving Money with Yesenia Godoy

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Yesenia Godoy, a money coach who specializes in helping women transform their financial lives. We’re discussing how our financial health impacts other areas of our lives – including our physical, mental and emotional health + well-being – and how we can overcome the limiting beliefs that hold us back from living empowered, peaceful lives. You'll learn how to determine the difference between spending vs. investing, why your money mindset plays a major role in your overall quality of life, how to determine when you're confronted with a spending trigger, and SO MUCH MORE!
