Outsmarting Your Brain

Money problems aren't always money problems.In this first-ever guest episode of Outsmarting Your Brain, I'm joined by money coach Jasmine Drummond for a conversation about the beliefs, fears, and stories that shape our financial decisions (often without us realizing it).We explore why more money doesn't automatically create a sense of security, how scarcity and survival mode influence our choices, and why so many people stay financially stuck trying to solve the wrong problem. We also discuss financial nihilism, avoidance, hyper-independence, and the role that community and support play in creating growth and success.If you've ever thought, "I just need to make more money," but still find yourself feeling stressed, stuck, or uncertain, this episode offers a different perspective.Because sometimes the biggest obstacle to financial freedom isn't your bank account. It's the story you're telling yourself about what's possible.Connect with Jasmine on LinkedIn and InstagramIf you found this episode helpful, be sure to subscribe!Stay in touch: Connect with me on LinkedInShare your thoughts: Drop me an email
