    Lesson 32 - Are you experiencing a financial blackout?

    Experiencing a financial blackout these days in our instant gratification society is something that is actually quite normal. A financial blackout is similar to a blackout someone might experience with alcohol or drugs, but in the context of money. It's a state where you lose control or awareness of your financial decisions—spending or making financial decisions without fully being conscious and present of the consequences until you "come to" and realize the damage. Is this something you have experienced? In this lesson I walk you through what you might experience in a financial blackout and the tools to use to help support you through it and come out the other side.

    Lesson 31 - To consolidate or not to consolidate

    Have you been asking yourself if loan consolidation might be something you want to do with your debt? In this episode I walk you through the questions to ask yourself before you follow through with a loan consolidation application or a balance transfer with your credit card company.  When it comes down to it loan consolidations can be a great way to make your payments more realistic but is it the best thing for you?  There are many things to consider when getting a loan consolidation and I give you all the information you need.  I also introduce you to the "Prince Charming Effect" of what loan consolidations do for us and it's one of the most important pieces of thinking through if you are trying to be rescued or not.  You will get all the info you need to consolidate or not consolidate!

    Lesson 30 - Perimenopause and Money

    If you struggle with perimenopause and you saw the title of this lesson it may feel like a bit of a warm hug, but in saying that you don't want a warm hug cause the hot flashes have taken over, but you get what I mean.  I am talking about what alot of peeps aren't talking about, perimenopause.  Perimenopause has really affected my Financial Sobriety.  With the mood swings, hot flashes, feeling completely on edge my spending can be affected at times. The thing that has affected it the most is the cost of perimenopause.  Our system is so broken when it comes to women seeking help as we struggle with perimenopause.  Paying out of pocket is the only way I was going to get anybody to even take me seriously (and I live in Canada.  This weeks lesson I talk all about how it affected me and some tips for how to navigate this LOOOOONNNNNNG season of your life.  Here is the link to the sober spending course I refer to in the episode: https://www.lindaparmar.com/soberspending
