Let’s talk about financial fight or flight: the reason you can be smart, successful, and still make questionable money decisions. In this episode, I break down how everyday triggers like bills, pricing, or your bank balance can send your nervous system into chaos, leading to overspending, avoidance, or undercharging…followed by guilt, obviously. I also share the patterns I see all the time (and have 100% done myself), plus a behind the scenes moment in my business that completely changed how I think about money, so you can finally understand what is driving your decisions and start breaking the cycle!

In This Episode, You'll Learn:

What financial fight or flight is and why it happensThe “I deserve this” spending pattern and what is really driving itWhy avoidance is the most expensive money habit you can haveHow undercharging and under earning are rooted in fear, not strategyThe self sabotage pattern that shows up after financial winsThe mindset shift that reframes how you think about making and keeping money
