  2. Being a "pleasure to have in class" – good for your finances, or bad? The Comments Section with E & V

    5 DAYS AGO

    Being a "pleasure to have in class" – good for your finances, or bad? The Comments Section with E & V

    In this episode, we discuss our common personality trait of being a "pleasure to have in class" – that is, you were a pleasure to have in class as a child, and as an adult, you're hellbent on making a good impression, being polite, and rarely rocking the boat. 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.  Once again, please accept my apologies for audio quality. Recording on the go is not my friend.  With thanks to our sponsors, Wallace Advocates and Lending Solved.

    How to choose a word for your year (and why you should!)

    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. You know that TikTok sound, “In the clurb we all fam”? Well, let this be the clurb where we’re all about intentional living and smashing financial goals, one thoughtful decision at a time. 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. I’ll share why I love this practice, how to reflect on what you really want, and prompts to help you find your perfect word. Whether you’ve got one in mind or have no clue where to start, this episode will help you get there.

    This is the year you...find a budget that actually works

    Welcome back to This Is The Year! This week we're exploring BUDGETS – most critically, finding a budget that works for YOU. There are tons of plug and play, cookie cutter budgets out there, and while those are great for getting you started, the real magic comes when you find a money management approach that works for you and your brain.  In this episode, we're deep diving on four budget strategies, and unpacking what they are, why they work, and who they're best suited to: 50/30/20 budget Reverse budgeting Zero-based budgeting Kakeibo For each, I'll take you through the pros and cons and the psychology of who they're best suited to, so you can take elements that fit best for you.  This miniseries was created in partnership with PocketSmith: the personal finance software for all walks of life.

    End of year guided money reflection

    Welcome to the annual end of year guided money reflection! Settle in with a cuppa, a notebook, and an open mind, and get ready to reflect on 2024. By looking back on what the year has held for our finances, we're able to set better goals for 2025 by meeting ourselves where we're at, doing more of what's working and less of what's not. Plus, by zooming out and looking at what this chapter of our money story has included, we can approach 2025 from the position of writing a better chapter than the last, while embracing the lessons learned from the year just gone.  If you want more reflections and support extracting your key goals for 2025, grab access to my annual Reflect & Reset two part workshop. Part 1 was delivered live earlier this month but you can still grab the replay, and part 2 will be delivered on-demand to your inbox on January 6th 2025, for you to devour whenever you're ready to kick off the year.
