    Where Are You Outsourcing Your Financial Power?

    What happens when you don't actually know what's happening with your own money? Sometimes information is intentionally withheld. Sometimes nobody ever taught you what questions to ask. And sometimes the information is technically available—but fear, overwhelm, or old money stories keep you from looking. In this episode, we're continuing our conversation about money between people by exploring power: who has it, where we give it away, and what changes when we're willing to illuminate what's actually happening. Because financial power isn't about controlling every dollar. It's about understanding where your resources are flowing so you can choose where you want them to go. In this episode, we explore: How secrecy and lack of financial transparency create power imbalances The difference between having information withheld and unknowingly outsourcing your own agency Why anger around money may be covering fear, grief, or vulnerability How our individual money stories show up inside relationships Why money mindset work alone can't replace understanding your actual numbers The three pieces we keep coming back to: income, expenses, and assets How clarity about your resources gives you more power to make aligned choices Why healing your relationship with money requires both the emotional work and the numbers Join us on Substack: https://expansiveceo.substack.com/ Ready to work with a fiduciary CFP to build your long-term wealth strategy?

    You Don’t Have to Defend Your Desires: Money, Judgment & the Freedom to Know Your Own Worth

    What happens when you make a financial decision that feels right for you—and someone else makes you question it? Maybe you bought something you genuinely wanted. Maybe you invested in an experience that matters to you. Maybe you've built wealth but still feel uncomfortable talking about it with your family or friends. In this episode, we're continuing our conversation about money between people, exploring how judgment, secrecy, and other people's money stories can influence our decisions—and what it looks like to own our desires without needing everyone else's approval. In this episode, we explore: How financial secrecy and ambiguity can create power imbalances in relationships Why other people's judgments can make us question decisions we've already made The difference between what something costs and what it's worth to you How the defined and undefined Ego centers in Human Design can shape our experiences of worth, value, and judgment Why genuine reciprocity is more than a transactional exchange How to recognize when you're taking on someone else's expectations or need for approval What changes when you can say, “I see you, and I see me”—without needing someone else to validate your desires Join us on Substack: https://expansiveceo.substack.com/ Ready to work with a fiduciary CFP to build your long-term wealth strategy?

    Vanity Metrics and the Illusion of Success

    Seven figures in revenue. Thousands of followers. Big-name clients. A growing team. An impressive house, car, or Instagram feed. From the outside, these can all look like evidence that you've made it. But what if the business generating $1 million in revenue can't actually afford to pay its founder? In this episode of the Expansive CEO Podcast, Hannah and Lauren unpack the vanity metrics we use to measure business success—and what can happen when we start building our businesses around proving we've succeeded instead of creating something profitable, sustainable, and aligned. Explore: Why top-line revenue can be one of the biggest vanity metrics in business The difference between visibility and actual business results Why followers, likes, impressions, headcount, and big-name clients don't necessarily equal success How underpricing quietly destroys otherwise successful businesses What happens when "we can figure it out" becomes your business model Why vanity metrics tend to create more vanity metrics The pressure to prove yourself as a business owner Why rest and stillness are essential parts of sustainable growth How undefined Ego/Heart energy can amplify the pressure to prove Why a painful pivot may be necessary to build a healthier business Human Design and Gene Keys as tools for understanding your energetic niche The Culture Sphere, conscious Mercury, and finding the people who are actually here to hear you Why your niche may be less about demographics and more about what you're here to say Join us on Substack: https://expansiveceo.substack.com/ Ready to work with a fiduciary CFP to build your long-term wealth strategy?

    Why We Hide Money From the People We Love

    Hiding the Target bags. Breaking down the Amazon boxes before your spouse gets home. Pretending the new dress has been hanging in your closet for years. It's often treated as a harmless joke about marriage. But...why is hiding money from our partners so relatable in the first place? In this episode of the Expansive CEO Podcast, Hannah and Lauren take another look at money stories in the wild—this time sparked by a viral Instagram post joking about hiding purchases from a spouse. Hiding is incredibly common, but hiding is the behavior. It isn't the money story underneath it. Learn about: Why hiding purchases from a partner has become normalized The difference between a money behavior and the money story underneath it Why the same behavior can come from completely different money stories How childhood experiences teach us what we're "supposed" to do with money The connection between money, control, and autonomy How seemingly small financial secrets can create cracks in trust Why earning millions doesn't automatically create a healthy relationship with money How we can unknowingly hide money from ourselves "Manufactured scarcity" and why scattered accounts can perpetuate a feeling of never having enough Why one partner often becomes the financial gatekeeper How financial control can develop even in otherwise healthy relationships Why both partners need autonomy—even while building shared financial goals Join us on Substack: https://expansiveceo.substack.com/ Ready to work with a fiduciary CFP to build your long-term wealth strategy?

    Your Money Stories Are Making Business Decisions for You

    What happens when a money story you learned decades ago quietly walks into a pricing conversation with you? In this episode of the Expansive CEO Podcast, Hannah Chapman and Lauren Ammon continue their conversation about changing relationships—this time focusing on one of the most important relationships in your life: your relationship with money. Because becoming aware of a money pattern isn't enough to change it. Eventually, life will give you an opportunity to repeat the old pattern or make a different choice. And that's where the real work begins. Explore: The Expansive CEO framework of Awareness → Acceptance → Aligned Action Why skipping acceptance can turn "different action" into another version of the same old pattern How childhood money stories continue showing up in business decisions Why a "just enough" money story can lead to chronic underpricing The connection between pricing, rejection, worth, and the Human Design Ego/Will Center How fear of being alone can become a money story Why more revenue doesn't necessarily create financial security The hidden cost of discounting before anyone has even said no Why you have to become comfortable with the discomfort of making a different choice How Human Design illustrates the importance of slowing down Why your relationship with money deserves to be treated as a primary relationship Join us on Substack: https://expansiveceo.substack.com/ Ready to work with a fiduciary CFP to build your long-term wealth strategy?
