    6. The Business of Motherhood: What if I never know who I’d be?

In this episode, I'm unpacking why choosing to have kids or stay child-free both feel like lose-lose situations - and it's not your fault. We're diving deep into the motherhood penalty (31% less income), the fatherhood bonus (6% more per child), and why the infrastructure supporting women's choices is completely broken. This isn't a pros and cons list - it's about understanding the structures behind the fear, guilt, and pressure that make this choice feel so heavy. Plus, I'm sharing a practical reflection method to help you make peace with whatever decision feels right for you. If you're grappling with the motherhood question or know someone who is, this episode is for you. 🔗 Join the newsletter for bonus resources: https://devamsha.beehiiv.com 💌 Submit your dilemmas or feedback: info@financialhotgirl.com 🎧 Not financial advice.

    5. Under-consumption: The Trend That Will Make You Rich

    Today we're diving deep into under-consumption and mimetic theory - the psychology behind why most of us buy things we don't actually want or need. I'll explain how copying other people's desires is keeping you stuck in spending patterns that work against your wealth-building goals, and share my three-question framework that's completely transformed my relationship with money. We'll explore why happiness plateaus after £70,000 annually and why control over your finances matters more than the actual amount you have. I'm breaking down the real reasons behind impulse purchases, status spending, and social signaling - plus giving you practical tools to build an anti-mimetic spending strategy. If you've ever wondered why you have a wardrobe full of things you never wear or why you're always chasing the next purchase to feel complete, this episode will change how you think about consumption forever. 0:00 The Poop Test: A TikTok Comment That Changed Everything1:43 Why You Buy Things You Don't Actually Like3:04 Mimetic Theory: The Psychology of Copying Desires4:36 The Belonging Trap That's Keeping You Broke6:27 Why Control Matters More Than Money (After £70k)8:22 My Personal Story: Waiting for Permission to Invest9:06 The Three-Question Anti-Mimetic Framework12:03 Your Challenge: Track and Label Your Purchases13:49 Final Thoughts: Stop Chasing, Start Leading 🔗 Join the newsletter for bonus resources: https://devamsha.beehiiv.com 💌 Submit your dilemmas or feedback: info@financialhotgirl.com 🎧 Not financial advice.

    Today’s episode is all about the realistic financial steps I took before leaving my corporate 9-5 to build Financial Hot Girl. You asked questions about navigating irregular income, the surprising ways my lifestyle changed (spoiler: I simplified a lot but still found myself spending on holidays), and how I’ve handled the mental shift from predictable payslips to trusting myself and my business skills.

    1. The secret tax that's costing you THOUSANDS

    There’s a hidden tax you’ve probably been paying for years — and it has nothing to do with tax man. In this debut episode of The Financial Hot Girl Show, I break down the concept of the Self-Hate Tax — the quiet, compounding cost of low self-worth that stops you from building wealth, charging your worth, and backing yourself. We’ll talk about: • How I discovered I was paying it (hint: debt, avoidance, and undercharging) • Why women in particular get caught in this pattern • And how to start breaking free of it If you’ve ever felt like you know what to do with your money but still sabotage it? This is for you. 00:00 What is the Self-Hate Tax? 01:08 My Journey 05:51 The Confidence Gap 07:37 The Confidence Gap IRL 16:42 The Hack: Building Self-Efficacy 24:55 Practical Steps to Build Confidence 29:32 Conclusion and Next Episodes 🔗 Join the newsletter for bonus resources: https://devamsha.beehiiv.com 💌 Submit your dilemmas or feedback: info@financialhotgirl.com 🎧 Not financial advice.
