Could you live without money? The Comments Section with E & V 34:56

לפני 17 ימים34:56

34:56

Earlier this year, The Guardian published an article on Jo Nemeth: the woman who lives without money. Instead of engaging in paid work and using that income to pay for goods, services and shelter, she contributes to an intergenerational household with unpaid labour. In this episode, we unpack the concept of living without money, including whether it's a giant leap forward to a society less hamstrung by late stage capitalism, or whether it's a sinister step backwards to a time when women lived without money under the control of their male partners.

How to get dopamine from saving instead of spending 38:31

לפני 16 weeks38:31

We all know that dopamine drives our spending, whether it's impulse shopping, online browsing, or grabbing a little treat just because. That quick hit of excitement can make spending feel effortless, while saving? Not so much. But what if we could flip the script and make saving just as rewarding as swiping our card? This week, I'm unpacking how to retrain your brain to crave financial wins instead of spending sprees. By understanding the psychology behind our money habits, we can start making small shifts that give us that same dopamine rush, not from spending, but from watching our savings grow. I'm covering: Why we're wired to seek dopamine from spending How to make saving feel just as rewarding Simple ways to gamify your savings If you've ever struggled to break the cycle of impulse spending, this one's for you!

Why do we struggle to spend money once we've saved it? 37:15

לפני 17 weeks37:15

37:15

A common dilemma that plagues many of us on our journey to getting good with money is this: we finally save up some money, feel our first sense of financial confidence, finally start to feel things clicking into place... and then suddenly feel immense guilt and ickiness when it comes to spending money on things, even if we've saved up for them! This feeling is complete and utter proof of how money is NOT rational. In a purely mathematical sense, having money saved up for something is endlessly easier than living in a state of financial chaos. AND YET, so many of us save up for something for the first time ever, and when the time comes to spend that money, OOP, we feel horrible. Not cool, brain, not cool. In this episode I unpack this dilemma and explore ways to move through it and come out the other side financially confident and empowered. Highlights: How our natural loss aversion comes into play The emotional tension between spending and saving Letting go of binary thinking in all areas of our finances Why a good relationship with money ALWAYS needs nuance Gradually desensitising yourself from the ickiness Ways to organise our money so we're just the right amount of connected, and disconnected, with our finances.

This is the year you...get serious about saving 35:35

35:35

Welcome back to This is the year...! This week we're exploring ways to make 2025 the year you SLAY your savings once and for all. Saving money is one of the most life changing skills you can learn – and yes, skill is the operative word here. We expect ourselves to know how to save automatically, but for most of us, it's just not that easy. The human brain isn't wired to delay gratification. We've evolved to use the resources we have to avoid losing them, and so saving money (resources) for an undefined reason, to use on an undefined date in the future, isn't something that comes naturally to us. Luckily, there are ways we can hack our brains to make saving fun and easy, and in this episode, I'm going to show you how. Highlights: Gamifying saving to make it more fun Using a bundle strategy like the $1000 Project Creating momentum to keep yourself saving Building saving into your budget Learning to live below your means naturally Values-based saving Embracing a base camps vs climbs mentality This miniseries was created in partnership with PocketSmith: the personal finance software for all walks of life.

But what happens when you DO need to rock the boat? And what happens when your inner pleasure to have in class collides with your inner raging feminist? We find out in this classically chaotic ep.

Welcome back to The Broke Generation podcast! This week, we're talking all about choosing your word for the year - a trend that's been around for a while, but one I think is genuinely worth the hype.

Picking a word isn't just a cute exercise; it's a way to set the tone for your year, helping you navigate life and money with clarity and purpose.

Explanations versus excuses 25:27

לפני 11 weeks25:27

25:27

In this episode, I dive into the critical difference between explanations and excuses when it comes to our financial situations. I explore how identifying this difference can transform our money mindset, help us take meaningful action, and prevent future regrets. By learning to shift from excuse-making to explanation-seeking, we can break through psychological barriers and create genuine financial progress. Episode Highlights: Explanations vs. Excuses : I break down how explanations clarify with facts and context, while excuses shift responsibility and provide psychological comfort that ultimately holds us back. The Self-Employment Example : I share my personal tendency to use "I'm self-employed, so it's harder" as an excuse, and how transforming this into an explanation creates actionable pathways forward. Four Questions to Identify Excuses : I provide a framework to determine if you're making excuses or giving explanations, including asking if it's specific, if there's a way forward, if you'll stand by it in five years, and if there's anything you're not telling yourself. The Future Self Perspective : I discuss how our future selves will thank us for turning excuses into explanations that we can act upon, rather than letting opportunities pass us by. Life's Regrets : I reference Bronnie Ware's "Top Five Regrets of the Dying" to highlight how excuse-making can lead to unfulfilled dreams and missed opportunities for meaningful connections. What you will learn: How to differentiate between legitimate explanations and limiting excuses in your financial life Practical techniques to transform your excuses into explanations that enable action Why psychological comfort from excuses can lead to long-term regret How to balance accepting real financial challenges while still moving forward Where to find The Broke Generation Website: https://thebrokegeneration.com/?v=518f4a738816 Instagram: https://instagram.com/the.brokegeneration TikTok: @the.brokegeneration Order my book, Good with Money!

Building on the foundation laid in part one, this episode dives deeper into identifying your "fantasy self," recognising spending triggers, working with what you already own, and developing a framework to intercept negative self-talk. Discover how liking yourself more can become your financial superpower and free up mental space previously consumed by self-criticism. What you will learn: How to identify your "fantasy self" and break the spending cycle tied to that unrealistic image Techniques to recognise and distance yourself from triggers that lead to emotional spending Why working with what you already own can radically shift your relationship with yourself A practical A.A.D.E. framework (Acknowledge, Articulate, Dispute, Evidence) to intercept negative self-talk The connection between self-acceptance and improved financial decision-making Episode Highlights How identifying your "fantasy self" can help you intercept emotional spending before it happens (5:40) Why your triggers for disliking yourself are powerful clues for changing your relationship with money (12:30) The radical act of deciding you can like yourself with what you already own (18:20) Introduction of the A.A.D.E. framework for transforming negative self-perception (22:35) Why liking yourself is actually a "cheat code" for financial wellbeing (28:15) My personal journey from self-criticism to neutrality and how it transformed my spending (30:25) The connection between women's self-image struggles and engagement with personal finance (32:10) Mentioned in this episode: The Spending Trap of Your Fantasy Self episode: https://thebrokegeneration.com/blog/episodes/friday-faves-the-spending-trap-of-your-fantasy-self/?portfolioCats=362 Where to find The Broke Generation Website: https://thebrokegeneration.com/?v=518f4a738816 Instagram: https://instagram.com/the.brokegeneration TikTok: @the.brokegeneration Order my book, Good with Money!

FRIDAY FAVES: is a lack of self love sabotaging your finances? 33:02

33:02

Step into my time machine: for this week's Friday Fave we're going all the way back to 2023 to hear a fave ep about the link between a lack of self love and financial self sabotage, WOOF! Buckle up, it's a juicy one. When we exist in a society that conditions us (especially women and marginalised groups) to constantly pursue "better" versions of ourselves, our finances often suffer as a result. I share how my own struggles with self-esteem in my teens and early twenties led to financial leakage, and how therapy and self-awareness have transformed my relationship with both myself and my money. Highlights: Emotional Spending Cycles : How using shopping as a coping mechanism creates a vicious cycle of temporary highs followed by financial regret Self-Sabotage Patterns : Why we unconsciously derail our own financial progress when operating from a place of low self-worth The "Worthiness" Factor : How feeling undeserving can prevent you from saving, negotiating better pay, or charging what you're worth Identity-Based Purchasing : The danger of buying things to "become" someone else rather than to enhance who you already are The Awareness Solution : Practical first steps to notice the connection between your self-esteem and spending habits What you'll learn: The 7 specific ways low self-love sabotages your financial confidence How to identify when you're spending to fill emotional gaps rather than actual needs Why struggling financially might feel like your "comfort zone" (and how to break free) The psychological difference between healthy vs. toxic identity-based purchasing Simple reflection practices to begin healing your relationship with both yourself and your money If you're stuck in a cycle of taking one step forward and two steps back with your finances, this episode will help you understand the underlying self-worth issues that might be holding you back.

How to like yourself more (and be better with money in the process) PART ONE 36:34

In this episode I explore the profound connection between self-acceptance and financial wellness. Discover why the journey to liking yourself isn't a simple switch to flip, but rather a transformative process that can revolutionise your relationship with both your self-image and your spending habits. I had SO MUCH TO SAY it's ended up being a two parter, so tune in next Thursday for 4 more ways to like yourself more. What you'll learn: Why self-acceptance is a gradual journey of neuroplasticity, not an overnight transformation The surprising ways our self-perception drives our financial decisions Practical strategies to break the cycle of "improvement" spending How to begin separating your self-worth from the standards we've been conditioned to meet Episode Highlights: The Self-Love Switch Myth Why we've been conditioned to believe self-acceptance is instantaneous rather than a gradual rewiring of our thinking patterns. The Money-Image Connection Explore the hidden relationship between how we see ourselves and where our money goes—particularly through "enhancement" purchases that promise to make us more acceptable. Breaking the Consumption-Confidence Loop Learn why stopping certain consumption patterns might actually be more effective than adding new ones when building self-acceptance. The Mirror of Judgment Discover how our perception of others directly influences our self-criticism and spending habits, and what we can do to break this pattern. Neutrality Before Positivity My journey of moving from self-hatred to self-neutrality before reaching self-acceptance, and why this middle step is crucial. The True Cost of Self-Criticism Uncover the financial impact of constantly trying to "fix" yourself through purchases, and what happens when you begin to step away from this pattern Quotable Moments: "When you're relying on that externality, that was just a complete sinkhole of spending because there is no end there. It's just a cycle that's going to keep going around." "If you see it as a project of changing the way you see yourself, rather than just going from disliking yourself to liking yourself, it will feel a lot more manageable."

In this episode I'm taking you through some advice I use in my Wardrobe Project behaviour change program about how to break the habit of buying your confidence on a rack.

FRIDAY FAVES: how to quiet quit unhelpful spending and consumption patterns 34:15

לפני 14 weeks34:15

34:15

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 treatments to evaluating convenience-driven consumption, I show how adopting a quiet quitting attitude has empowered me to make more intentional choices, and you can too! Episode highlights: Practical tips on simplifying beauty routines and scrutinising purchases. How convenience-driven consumption impacts spending. Actionable strategies for making better choices about consumption. “I was able to identify that the thing compelling me to pay for that, or to consider getting that treatment, was because I felt pressure that everybody else was." Emma [12:26] “All of these things are priming us to become these convenience seeking consumers like it doesn't serve us." Emma [20:08] “Is this really expressing myself? …Can I really see beyond this one decision and really can I really make sense of what I'm actually trying to do with this consumption decision."
