I Bought a House! What It’s Really Like to Buy Your First Home Solo

I’ve been that multi-millionaire who rents, proudly defending why homeownership wasn’t the right choice for me—until now. At 31, I bought my first house, and in this episode, I’m sharing everything I learned along the way: the emotional rollercoaster of finding “the one,” the financial surprises (like hidden $50,000 repairs), why I chose a mortgage over paying cash, and what finally made me change my mind after years of renting. Whether you’re saving for your first home, debating if renting still makes sense, or just curious about how a self-proclaimed renter became a homeowner, this is the honest truth about what it really takes to buy a house.

Scarcity, Survival, and the Price of Power with Survivor All-Star Parvati Shallow

Save your seat inside Business Bootcamp! Your COMPLETE roadmap to go from idea to income: ⁠herfirst100k.com/business-bootcamp What does it really cost to survive — on reality TV and in real life? In this episode of Financial Feminist, I sit down with Parvati Shallow — Survivor legend, and author of “Nice Girls Don’t Win: How I Burned It All Down to Claim My Power.” We talk about her journey from growing up in a high-control spiritual community (yes, basically a cult) to winning multiple seasons of Survivor and becoming one of the most iconic players in reality TV history, and how the scarcity mindset shaped her money, relationships, and self-worth for decades. Parvati opens up about what it means to rewire survival into abundance, motherhood’s lessons in surrender, queerness, and why playing “villain” on TV mirrors the punishment women face for stepping into their power. If you’ve ever been told you’re “too much” or felt you had to play small to belong, this conversation is for you.

How to End the Year Without Burning Out: The Reset Plan Every Entrepreneur Needs

If you're feeling the pressure to squeeze every last drop out of the year even though you're already running on fumes, this episode is for you. I'm going to show you how to finish the year aligned, not burned out, and why your best move right now might be to slow down on purpose! This episode is not about making you do more. It's about guiding you to choose better and to start thinking of this season as a bridge, not a cliff. Together, we’ll identify what's actually working in your business right now, the quiet wins you're probably overlooking, and we'll release the stuff that's stealing your energy without giving much back. Then, I'll show you exactly how I shift my routines and habits now, before January, so I'm not showing up to the new year with a blank page and burnout baggage. Finally, we'll talk about why saying no to 10 good ideas in favor of one bold aligned move might be the most strategic thing you do all year. This is about getting realigned with what you actually want from your life and your work. It's about redefining what "finishing strong" means, and it might not look anything like what Instagram is telling you it should. So if you're ready to finish the year on purpose with clarity, with boundaries, and with momentum that actually lasts, click play!

Your Perfectionism Is Costing You Money (Here's the Escape Plan)

Your perfectionism isn't protecting your reputation… It's protecting your ego. And it's costing you real money, real impact, and real progress toward the life you want to build. After building my business over the last decade, I've learned this hard truth: perfectionism is selfish. Every minute you spend polishing something that could already be helping someone is a minute you're withholding value from your audience. Every hour spent perfecting is an hour not spent learning from real market feedback. Every delayed launch is revenue walking straight out the door. If you have a Google Doc full of business ideas, a camera roll packed with content you'll "post later," and a heart full of dreams you're not quite ready to share, this one's for you.

Why Your “Too Small” Idea Might Be the Exact Thing People Pay For

Think your business is “too niche” to succeed online? In this coaching session, I’m chatting with Jennifer about how to sell a highly specific online course to a small-but-mighty audience… and how to attract the right people to grow a business that feels deeply aligned! Jennifer Gulizia is a flower farmer and garden educator who turned her passion for dahlias into a beautiful educational business. She’s also a Digital Course Academy student, and she’s looking to refine her offer, grow her community, and get clarity on how to market something that’s niche, time-sensitive, and doesn’t quite fit the traditional “signature course” mold. If you’ve ever worried your topic is too specific or too seasonal to succeed, this coaching session is for you. And listen, if Jennifer’s story has you thinking, “Wait… maybe I could do this too…” then I want to personally invite you to check out Digital Course Academy: the very program that helped me launch my first course and change my entire business (and life!).
