In this episode we're diving into three types of spending: planned, prepared and impulsive. We'll explore the differences between the three, and how you can use them to audit your current behaviour, farm that data to build a money management style that works for you, and benchmark how you're tracking over time, too.

Welcome back to Spend-tember! Today, we're unpacking the concept of the "fantasy self" and exploring how it influences our financial behaviours and spending decisions. If you've participated in my wardrobe challenges, you might already be familiar with the idea of the fantasy self when it comes to clothing.

Is it unfeminist to discuss women's spending habits?...

The Broke Generation ·

2024/09/02

In the final episode of The Comments Section Season Two, we’re digging through the dirty laundry pile that is the intersection of feminism and spending habits, and whether it is unfeminist to critique women's spending habits. Historically, financial media has framed men's spending around wealth-building and investment, while women's spending has often been associated with saving and cutting back. This dichotomy raises the question: is it wrong to scrutinise women's spending when men aren't subjected

2024/08/26

This week, we're diving into the messy reality of failure. We’re unpacking the modern narrative that every failure must teach us something or shape our success. But let's be real—sometimes, failure is just failure. From botched jobs to disastrous side hustles, we’ve all been there. We explore the pressure to be grateful for failures, even when they don’t neatly fit into our life’s success story. Ever tried to spin getting fired from a waitressing gig into a stepping stone? It’s a stretch. We also

2024/08/21

In this episode, I explore the idea of "quiet quitting" beyond the workplace and how it applies to our consumption habits. Inspired by a recent newsletter on stepping back from the beauty hamster wheel, can a change in mindset help us break free from the cycle of overconsumption and superficial self-care? I share practical strategies for assessing what genuinely adds value to our lives, like simplifying beauty routines and scrutinising our purchases. From questioning the necessity of trendy beauty

In this episode, we ask: "Deal or no deal?" when it comes to the influence of situational bias on our financial decisions. Our environment often plays the role of the banker, tempting us with offers that can derail our long-term financial goals. We explore how these subtle pressures can sway our choices and discuss ways to stay in control of our financial journey. By understanding situational biases, we can better equip ourselves to make decisions that truly align with our intentions. We share

We discuss the impact diet culture has on our finances and why liking yourself is one of the best things you can do for your relationship with money, and with yourself.

Ready to undergo your next financial transformation? This ep is for you. I'm taking you through four tips to help you accelerate your next big upgrade (and not in a gross way). When it comes to our ongoing financial journey (yuck), there are certain points when we're climbing, and others when we're coasting. Neither is superior to the other, but they're distinctly different states. Climbs happen when you're making big shifts to your habits, behaviours, beliefs and even your bank balance, too

We’re getting into the nitty-gritty of self-love and confidence, which are sneaky aspects of our lives that impact making financial decisions. No one is scrutinising us as much as we do ourselves, and it’s human nature (and conditioning) to think that a shiny new thing, like an outfit, makeup or even a diet program, will sort out all our insecurities. Fortunately, the best fix is free and usually what we actually

When are we buying to fix ourselves, and when are we "investing in ourselves"?

We explore themes of transparency, generosity vs. practicality, and the dynamics of relationships. Should the recipient feel obligated to share?
