Ever feel like your thoughts about money are running the show—and not in a good way? You’re not alone. From family influences to societal expectations, your brain is like a sponge soaking up everything about money, creating beliefs that might be keeping you stuck.

But here’s the good news: you don’t have to stay stuck.

In this reboot episode, I’m sitting down with Kara Loewentheil—J.D., Master Certified Coach, host of the hit podcast Unfck Your Brain*, and author of Take Back Your Brain. Kara is a powerhouse when it comes to rewiring how you think, and this episode is packed with practical strategies to help you finally shift your money mindset.

Here’s what we’re diving into:

Why your brain is wired to think negatively about money—and how to reprogram it.

The Thought Ladder: a simple, powerful tool to change how you think about money.

How to escape the scarcity mindset and start making confident financial decisions.

Why hiding what you buy isn’t the answer—and how to stop the shame cycle.

Whether you’re starting fresh this year or just want to feel less anxious about your finances, this episode will give you the tools you need to take control of your thoughts and your money.
