Episode Description
In this episode I share 6 tips on what to do when life is life-ing and all you want to do is avoid, sabotage, and spend all your money on things you know you don't need. I take you through a recent personal experience of feeling too overwhelmed to do the right thing for my finances and how I got myself out of that without shame or guilt.
Highlights:
- Treating your emotions like they're a toddler having a tantrum
- Understanding the role of your sabotage behaviour
- Observing what your mind wants to do and why
- Using strategic permission to hold two truths at once and gradually shift your behaviour when you're ready.
