    💰 What Does "Wealth" Really Mean for Your Money Story? w/ Nicole Cloutier [Rebroadcast]

    EPISODE SUMMARY In this special rebroadcast episode of The Money Healing Club podcast, Rachel Duncan is the guest on It's All Poetry, a podcast hosted by copywriter, poet, and self-described word nerd Nicole Cloutier that dedicates each episode to exploring exactly one word in depth. And the word they chose? Wealth. Together they dig into its etymology, its evolving definitions across centuries, and the deeply personal, often contradictory feelings it stirs up in all of us. They explore the surprising gap between "rich" and "wealthy," why wealth can feel morally dangerous to want, how the Boomer vs. Millennial economic experience has quietly shaped what financial security even looks like today, and what it actually means to build slow money in a world obsessed with the quick win. 💬 "Wealth feels quieter. It feels like it's okay to want wealth where maybe it's not okay to want to be rich." — Nicole Cloutier   Key Takeaways The word wealth carries much more emotional and moral baggage than its dictionary definition, and unpacking that is the first step "Rich" is about perception and spending; "wealthy" is about lasting value that grows on its own The 4% rule and "Rule of 25" are powerful frameworks for understanding what a real retirement number actually looks like for YOU Fast money (cash flow) and slow money (investing) both matter and serve different purposes Many people unconsciously inherited the belief that wanting wealth is greedy or shameful The systemic advantages Boomers had (subsidized education, pensions, economic booms) are largely gone, and that context matters for how millennials build wealth today True wealth, at its core, is about safety: having your needs met and options available About Nicole Cloutier: Nicole is a copywriter, poet, MFA graduate, and host of the It's All Poetry podcast, where each episode explores one word in depth with one guest. She's also the founder of Copy Poetics, a studio devoted to helping purpose-driven business owners find their voice and make money doing what they love. ⏰ EPISODE BREAKDOWN 00:00 | A Word That Changes Everything Rachel introduces this rebroadcast and shares why "wealth" is the concept she's had the biggest personal transformation around. 10:30 | Rich vs. Wealthy: What's the Real Difference? The two break down why "rich" feels flashy and short-term while "wealth" feels quiet and lasting, and what that says about how we really relate to money. 26:00 | The Boomer vs. Millennial Wealth Gap A frank conversation about how systemic support quietly built Boomer wealth and why the playbook simply doesn't work the same way anymore. 40:00 | What Do YOU Actually Want Wealth to Mean? Drawing from ancient Greek philosophy, etymology, and lived experience, Rachel and Nicole land on a definition of wealth rooted in safety, options, and value that grows on its own. 💌 Connect with Nicole Nicole Cloutier's website Nicole’s podcast - All that Poetry 📚 Resources Mentioned “Die Broke” by Stephen M.

    🧠 Understanding Your Financial Trauma w/ Rahkim Sabree

    EPISODE SUMMARY What if your money stress isn't a personal failure, but a wound shaped by systems bigger than you? On this episode of the Money Healing Club podcast, Rachel welcomes Rahkim Sabree, author of "Overcoming Financial Trauma," for a conversation about how financial trauma lives in our bodies, communities, and histories. They explore the six sources of financial trauma, the benefit cliff that keeps people stuck, and what happened when Rahkim lost his home to a fire 30 days before his book launched. This episode validates the collective nature of financial stress and offers real frameworks for healing.   💬 "Many times when we talk about financial trauma, we talk about it through a first person lens that says, 'I experienced this thing.' But when we take a step back, our financial socialization keeps us very isolated. My goal is to help people detach their self-worth from this phenomenon and view it as more of a societal issue." Key Takeaways: Financial trauma is any instance observed or experienced that negatively impacts how you view, interact with, or believe about money The six sources include: genetic/generational, vicarious/observational, workplace, poverty/financial instability, systemic/institutional, and acute financial events Financial fawning in the workplace means regularly crossing your own boundaries to stay employed (and it's a survival strategy) The benefit cliff creates a trap where earning $1 more can cost you thousands in support, preventing economic mobility Our trauma brains may be operating on "old software" while navigating economic systems built on outdated foundations Co-regulation practices (like collective breathing) can help us stay present through financial stress About Rahkim Sabree: Rahkim is a nationally recognized financial therapist, speaker, and Forbes contributor. His new book "Overcoming Financial Trauma" introduces a framework for understanding and healing financial wounds, not just managing money better. In October 2025, just 30 days before his book launched, Rahkim lost his home to a fire, experiencing firsthand the very trauma he'd been writing about. ⏰ EPISODE BREAKDOWN 03:00 | Financial trauma as a societal issue: Why isolation around money keeps us from seeing the systemic nature of financial stress. 05:30 | The six sources of financial trauma: Breaking down genetic, observational, workplace, poverty, systemic, and acute trauma. 14:00 | The benefit cliff: When $1 more means losing everything How support systems trap people by cutting off entirely instead of gradually. 22:00 | When the book became real: Losing his home to fire Rahkim's experience of homelessness, vandalism, and trauma 30 days before launching a book on financial trauma. 35:00 | Summon Qi: Somatic practices from childhood How Rahkim's grandfather taught nervous system regulation through drumming and martial arts. 43:00 | Co-regulation on stage: The power of collective breathing before delivering a keynote while processing active trauma. 📚 Resources Mentioned "Overcoming Financial Trauma" by Rahkim Sabree "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman "The Body Keeps the Score" by Bessel van der Kolk  "My Grandmother's Hands" by Resmaa Menakem 🔗 Connect with Rahkim Website - https://www.rahkimsabree.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/rahkimsabree X - https://x.com/rahkimsabree 💬 Join the Conversation Have you ever felt isolated in your money struggles, only to discover others were going through the same thing?

    🧠 Curb Your Impulse Spending with Nervous System Awareness /w Stacy Peterson

    EPISODE SUMMARY Ever walk into Target for milk and leave with a cart full of things you didn't plan to buy? You're not alone, and it's not a willpower problem. In this episode of the Money Healing Club podcast, host Rachel Duncan speaks with Stacy Peterson, to explore the connection between your nervous system and your spending habits. Stacy is a licensed therapist & a certified financial therapist. Together, Rachel and Stacy unpack how to recognize when you're in the right state to make conscious money decisions, what to do in the Target parking lot when you feel activated, and how to come back to center after overspending. 💬 "The goal is not to always be regulated. No human can exist and nor do we want you to because our survival expects us to be able to have our threat responses work appropriately. We just don't want them to happen at unnecessary times." - Stacy Peterson Key Takeaways: Your spending is not a willpower problem, it's a nervous system awareness process Making conscious money decisions happens when you're in your "window of resilience" Notice what's happening in your body before making purchases (the Target parking lot check-in) Understand the difference between hyper arousal (activated, anxious) and hypo arousal (shut down, disconnected) Ask yourself: "What is the want beneath the want?" to uncover deeper emotional needs Practice "pendulation", the natural movement between different nervous system states Self-compassion is essential when you spend more than you intended About Stacy Peterson: Stacy is a licensed therapist and certified financial therapist with over a decade of experience. A former teacher, she brings a patient and encouraging approach to her work. She's a Trauma of Money Methods certified practitioner and is pursuing her polyvagal informed certificate. Stacy offers individual and group financial therapy through River Bend Financial Therapy, blending practical tools with nervous system awareness.   ⏰ EPISODE BREAKDOWN 03:00 | The Window of Resilience Understanding when you're in the best nervous system state to make conscious money decisions. 07:00 | The Target Parking Lot Exercise A powerful guided practice for checking in with your body before shopping, noticing what's happening in your nervous system as you pull into the parking lot. 14:00 | What Is the Want Beneath the Want? Going deeper than surface-level desires to uncover the emotional needs driving your impulse purchases. 30:00 | Pendulation: The Word That Rocks Our Socks Learning about the natural movement between nervous system states and why regulation isn't about staying calm all the time. 📚 Resources Mentioned Trauma of Money professional training course & book Consumerism Documentary: Century of Self Window of Tolerance Connect with Stacy Peterson: Website: riverbendfinancialtherapy.com Instagram: @riverbendfinancialtherapy Facebook: River Bend Financial Therapy LinkedIn: Stacy Peterson 💬 Join the Conversation What's your "Target parking lot" moment?

    🦥 Your Values + Your Budget, Paso a Paso w/ Ilia Pèrez Your Dinero Doctor

    EPISODE SUMMARY What does it actually mean to be "good with money" in 2026? In this episode of the Money Healing Club podcast, Rachel sits down with Ilia Pèrez, aka Your Dinero Doctor, a pharmacist and bilingual budget coach who's redefining financial wellness through her signature "Dinero Date" framework. They explore why tracking your money should feel like self-care (complete with croissants and coffee), and how Latina women navigate cultural messages around money and gratitude. This conversation bridges the deeply emotional with the refreshingly practical, perfect for anyone ready to build a money practice that actually sticks.   💬 "Being good with money is a personal definition. For somebody it can simply mean paying their bills on time. Another person being good with money could be having a certain amount of savings. I think it's being honest with yourself what that personal definition is." Key Takeaways: Dinero Dates are weekly money check-ins designed like self-care dates with ambiance, treats, and pleasure Pairing money tasks with sensory comfort is actually trauma healing (your brain starts associating money with positive experiences) Working hard isn't the same as working smart; learning to be strategic with money is a skill we often have to teach ourselves Cultural messages like "God will provide" or "don't be ungrateful" can block us from wanting something different Your values should guide both your present spending AND your future planning   About Ilia Pèrez: Ilia is a pharmacist and financial coach who offers budget coaching in both English and Spanish through her practice, Your Dinero Doctor. She helps clients build sustainable money habits through her Dinero Date framework and values-based budgeting. When she's not coaching, she loves slow mornings at coffee shops and exploring new places in Puerto Rico.   ⏰ EPISODE BREAKDOWN 05:30 | What Is a Dinero Date? How to turn money tracking into actual self-care (candles, croissants, and your favorite corner table included) 15:00 | Values on a Post-It Note Why Ilia keeps her seven core values visible during every money decision 23:00 | The Latina Experience: Working Hard vs. Working Smart Navigating cultural messages about gratitude, boundaries, and wanting something different 31:00 | Introducing The Money Reset How Rachel and Ilia are co-teaching a 90-day program that bridges emotional healing with practical budgeting   📚 Resources Mentioned The Money Reset - 90-day program co-taught by Rachel and Ilia (doors close February 2nd) Get in touch with Ilia Pèrez - Your Dinero Doctor instagram & email 💬 Join the Conversation What would YOUR Dinero Date look like?

    🦔 How to Make Peace with Your Money (Even If You're Not "Naturally Good" at It)

    EPISODE SUMMARY What if feeling "bad at money" isn't a character flaw but simply a sign you haven't found the right approach yet? In this episode of The Money Healing Club podcast, host Rachel Duncan chats with Carrie Friedberg, money coach, educator, and author of the newly released book At Peace with Money. Carrie shares her own journey from financial fog to confidence, proving that you don't need to be born with a "money gene" to build a healthy relationship with your finances. They explore how treating money like a practice (similar to yoga) can transform your financial life, why tracking your spending is an act of self-respect, and how understanding your unique learning style might be the missing piece in making money habits actually stick.   💬 "Anything is possible in your financial life if you're willing to track your money. What I mean by that is pay attention, tend to the garden of money, remain connected."   KEY TAKEAWAYS You don't need to be "naturally good" at money. Building confidence with finances is a practice, not an innate talent Tracking your spending (even with apps like Monarch Money or Quicken) is the foundational habit that makes everything else possible Create a weekly "money date" where you review spending, categorize transactions, and plan ahead. Treat it like an important appointment you'd never cancel Understanding your learning style (visual, kinesthetic, naturalistic, etc.) can help you design money routines that actually work for you It's okay to hire help (accountants, coaches, experts). Delegating is strategic when you're prepared and engaged Practice "budgeting out loud" so others see that managing money takes real work and intention About Carrie Friedberg Carrie Friedberg is a money coach, educator, and author who spent 15 years helping clients build confidence and peace with their finances through her practice, SF Money Coach. A former classroom teacher who struggled with money herself, Carrie discovered that traditional "just make a budget" advice didn't work for everyone. Her holistic approach combines practical financial skills with emotional awareness and personalized learning styles. Currently back in education while still coaching select clients, Carrie just released her debut book At Peace with Money, which lays out her step-by-step curriculum for financial wellness at any stage of life. ⏰ EPISODE BREAKDOWN 04:00 | The Yoga Mat Revelation How practicing discomfort in yoga translated into financial transformation and why "it shouldn't be this hard" was the turning point 18:00 | The Foundational Money Routine Why tracking your spending (with the right tools and weekly consistency) changes everything, and how to create a "money date" ritual that actually works 23:00 | Learning Styles and Money Discovering Howard Gardner's multiple intelligences and how knowing whether you're kinesthetic, visual, or naturalistic can revolutionize your financial habits 28:00 | The Five Levels of Financial Wellness From tracking to planning to analyzing to relationships to long-term health, here's the roadmap Carrie developed over 15 years of coaching 📚 RESOURCES MENTIONED At Peace with Money by Carrie Friedberg (releasing January 20, 2026) Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences Framework for understanding different learning styles SF Money Coach Carrie's website with courses and coaching: sfmoneycoach.com 💬 Join the Conversation Have you discovered a money routine that finally clicked for you?

    💼 No BS Advice If Your Self-Esteem Is Getting Hammered in the Job Market

    EPISODE SUMMARY Facing rejection after rejection in today's brutal job market? You're not alone and you deserve more than "just practice self-care" advice. In this episode of The Money Healing Club podcast, host Rachel Duncan teams up with career advancement coach Shannon Bowen to tackle a raw listener question: How do you keep your self-esteem intact when the job market keeps saying no? They dive deep into what's really going on in today's job market, why generic resumes don't cut it anymore, and how to stand out when hundreds of people are applying for the same position. Plus, they share unconventional income ideas, the power of getting hyper-specific about your strengths, and why the hiring process has become a trust-building exercise on both sides. 💬 "Your core value—you also have to find ways to feed your value. If you're not getting that external validation through a job and a job offer and all these things, you just have to work harder to feed that well of self-esteem." KEY TAKEAWAYS Get radically specific about your unique strengths instead of using generic phrases like "mission-driven professional" Add statistics and proof points to every resume bullet point to build trust Customize your cover letter like a love letter to each organization Ask 3-5 friends: "What three words would you use to describe me?" Use their answers in your materials Don't self-select out of jobs with 10-30% uncertainty. Interview to find out what's negotiable Send thank-you notes after every interview (still matters!) Consider charging for work product requests during interviews Build a fallback plan with side income ideas that work for you About Shannon Bowen Shannon Bowen is a career advancement coach, job search strategist, and "salary whisperer" who helps professionals land jobs they love at salaries that support their actual lives. As CEO of Monsoon Leadership and co-president of AFP Advancement Northwest, she brings insider knowledge from years as a nonprofit C-suite leader. When she's not coaching clients through negotiations, she's DIY-ing her house, tending to 50+ houseplants, or planning her next foodie vacation. ⏰ EPISODE BREAKDOWN 03:00 | The Hard Truth About Today's Job Market Why the job search process has fundamentally changed and what hiring managers are really worried about 10:30 | Making Your Resume Actually Stand Out How to get specific, ditch the clichés, and use proof points to build trust from page one 18:00 | Fallback Plans That Aren't BS Practical side income ideas and why having your own thing matters for your mental health and wallet 25:00 | The Secret Weapon: Your Authentic Strengths How being hyper-specific about what makes you you attracts the right opportunities (and repels the wrong ones) 📚 RESOURCES MENTIONED • Episode 16 of The Money Healing Club podcast: Shannon's previous appearance on salary negotiation and networking • Monsoon Leadership, Shannon's coaching company: monsoonleadership.com 💬 Join the Conversation Have you been in a brutal job search?

    💳 Debt-Free Isn't the Answer

    What if paying off debt faster isn't actually the goal? In this episode of The Money Healing Club, Rachel sits down with Haley and Justin Brown-Woods, the husband-wife team behind The Price of Avocado Toast, to reframe everything you thought you knew about debt. They discuss why the first step isn’t spreadsheets but childhood patterns, how the “whatever’s left” approach keeps you stuck, and why wealthy people don’t see debt as a moral failing. This conversation will challenge traditional ideas of being “responsible” with debt and may even strengthen your relationship in the process.   💬 "Debt happens to people more than people happen into debt. When folks first meet with us, they're so heavily rooted in this idea of 'I'm bad, I've caused this, and it's all my fault.'" Key Takeaways: The language we use about debt reveals deep shame - "I'm bad with money" puts all blame on ourselves, not systems Your first credit card story (probably age 18-22) holds crucial clues about your current debt patterns Paying minimums on everything for 1-2 months to get control beats chaotic "throw whatever's left" approach Most people are paid bi-weekly but all budgets/bills are monthly - this mismatch creates the debt cycle "Done" doesn't mean debt-free - it means making empowered decisions without fear or desperation About Haley & Justin Brown-Woods: Haley and Justin Brown-Woods are Accredited Financial Counselors® and the voices behind Price of Avocado Toast, a platform dedicated to redefining what financial wellness looks like for everyday people. Together, they help individuals and families break the debt cycle, build sustainable money habits, and align their spending with their core values   ⏰ EPISODE BREAKDOWN 03:00 | The Shame That Shows Up First Why clients worry you'll judge them as much as they worry about the cost 06:30 | Starting With Story, Not Spreadsheets Why their first session focuses entirely on childhood and life history 21:00 | The Free Pizza That Started It All Unpacking how we all got our first credit cards (and why we had no idea what we were doing) 26:00 | Why "Throw Whatever's Left" Keeps You Stuck How inconsistent debt payments feed the drama instead of solving it 32:00 | Debt Is Morally Neutral (Even the Founding Fathers Knew It) Why bankruptcy is actually the American way and wealthy people leverage debt as a tool 📚 Resources Mentioned Price of Avocado Toast website "The Psychology of Money" by Morgan Housel - history of consumer debt Episode with Adrienne Hines on bankruptcy options The Budgetnista - Tiffany Aliche   💬 Join the Conversation What shame language do you use about your debt?

    📦 Book Club: No New Things

    What if the answer to overspending isn't willpower, but simply... buying nothing new for 30 days? Rachel chats with Angie Fitzpatrick on the Money Healing Club Podcast to discuss Ashlee Piper's book "No New Things: A Radically Simple 30-Day Guide to Saving Money, the Planet and Your Sanity." They explore why we have so much stuff we don't need, how the returns system is broken, and why borrowing your neighbor's rubber bands might be the key to building community. Plus: the surprising link between gratitude and impulse spending.   💬 "Only 2% of purchases were returned 25 years ago. Now we send back 3.5 billion products a year worth a trillion dollars. We are buying stuff that we're not even using, then we're sending it back."   Key Takeaways: • Overconsumption affects your money, mental health, AND the environment simultaneously • The average American has 300,000 things - no wonder we forget what we already have! • Cultivating gratitude practice directly reduces impulse spending (backed by eco-psychologists) • The SUPER acronym helps you find alternatives to buying new (Secondhand, Upcycling, Paying nothing, Renting) • Tracking your triggers reveals the patterns driving your purchases   About Angie Fitzpatrick: Angie is the program manager of the Money Healing Club community and returning podcast guest.
