Register for our FREE workshop, Stock Market Secrets: Debunking Common Myths for Successful Investing: herfirst100k.com/secrets-pod What does it really mean to be a “rich girl”—and can we pursue wealth without sacrificing our values or our mental health? In this episode, I sit down with one of my favorite personal finance girlies, Katie Gatti Tassin, founder of Money with Katie and author of Rich Girl Nation. Katie and I dive into what it means to define success on your own terms and how to untangle your identity from your income. We talk about the dangers of tying self-worth to productivity, the role of privilege in financial success, and how to build wealth while still staying grounded in rest, joy, and community. This isn’t about toxic hustle or selling your soul for a dollar—it’s about building a life that’s rich in more ways than one. If you’ve ever wondered whether your drive for financial freedom is helping you thrive—or quietly burning you out—this episode is for you.

I’ve seen it over and over again––the smartest, most capable people sabotage their financial success because of mindset traps they don’t even realize they’re falling into. In this episode, I’m walking you through 5 sneaky money mindsets that could be silently wrecking your financial goals—and more importantly, how to break free from them. These aren't just bad habits. They’re deeply-rooted beliefs that keep us playing small, procrastinating, and feeling like we’re not “cut out” for financial freedom. I’ll break down why these mental blocks are so common (especially for women and marginalized folks), how they show up in your daily life, and what to do instead. So whether you're paying off debt, saving for a big goal, or just trying to feel more in control of your money, this is the mindset reset you didn’t know you needed.

Let’s talk about sex baby! If you've ever wondered why sex, pleasure, and intimacy often come with guilt—you're not alone. In this episode of Financial Feminist, I’m joined by Casey Tanner, AASECT certified sex therapist and author of the book “Feel It All: A Therapist's Guide to Reimagining Your Relationship with Sex.” We dive deep into how capitalism, purity culture, and gender norms are shaping not just your finances—but your sex life too. Yep––capitalism might be in your bedroom. Casey and I unpack how productivity obsession, religious trauma, and internalized shame creep into our most intimate moments. We explore how queerness, pleasure, money, and identity intersect—and how healing from societal conditioning around sex can help us build better relationships with ourselves and others. Whether you're partnered, solo, questioning, or just curious, this conversation will blow your mind and soothe your nervous system all at once.

I know firsthand how heavy financial scarcity can feel—especially when you’re dealing with debt. It’s not just numbers on a screen; it’s fear, shame, and anxiety that can leave you frozen in place. In this episode, I’m joined by Natalia Brown, Chief Compliance and Consumer Affairs Officer at National Debt Relief, who not only brings professional expertise, but powerful lived experience growing up in Harlem and navigating financial hardship herself. We talk about the real, raw emotional toll of debt—from the societal stigma to the psychological patterns that keep us stuck. Natalia breaks down predatory lending, payday loan traps, and how to know if debt consolidation or settlement is right for you. We also dive into something so many of us feel but rarely name: financial dysmorphia. This episode is full of judgment-free, actionable advice on how to reclaim your financial power and begin again—with clarity, compassion, and a solid plan.

In a world that’s constantly demanding more, learning how to quiet anxiety and reconnect with your purpose has never been more important. In today’s episode, I sat down with Dr. Martha Beck—bestselling author and speaker who Oprah calls “the smartest woman she knows”—to talk about something that affects so many of us: anxiety. But not just how it shows up in our lives—more importantly, how to understand it, move through it with kindness, and use it as a compass toward discovering your true purpose. Dr. Beck drops wisdom on the neuroscience of anxiety, the traps of our left-brain-dominated society, and how small acts of kindness (toward ourselves!) can lead to massive transformation. From her radical year of living without lies to the science of shaking out stress, this episode is filled with both aha moments and practical tools to move from panic to peace.

If you've been feeling burned out, emotionally drained, or like you're just going through the motions, this episode is for you. I sat down with board-certified psychiatrist and author Dr. Judith Joseph, and what started as a conversation about high-functioning depression turned into a much bigger discussion—about joy, trauma, people-pleasing, burnout, and the societal pressure to always be "on." Dr. Joseph breaks down the science of why so many of us feel stuck in cycles of overachieving and under-feeling—and how to break free from it. We’re not just talking theory—we’re talking real, actionable practices. Dr. Joseph shares her five-part framework to help you reconnect with what truly matters and reclaim your joy, even in the middle of a busy, demanding life.

Let’s be real — periods are a huge part of life for millions of us, but we’re still taught to suffer through the pain, stay quiet about the discomfort, and not ask too many questions. In today’s episode, I'm joined by Kate Helen Downey, host of the incredible podcast CRAMPED, who is on a mission to change that. We’re getting into everything you should have been taught about your body but probably weren’t –– the truth about hormones, the reality of living with endometriosis (endo) and PCOS, why the system isn’t built for menstruating bodies, and how period pain is affecting our wallets, careers, and overall health. If you’ve ever wondered whether your pain is "normal" (hint: if it’s wrecking your day, it’s not!), or felt dismissed by doctors when you tried to get answers, this conversation will make you feel seen. We’re breaking down the phases of your hormonal cycle, what debilitating period symptoms might be telling you, and why advocating for your health — even when the system is stacked against you — is an act of radical self-care.

Register for our FREE 'Don't Panic' workshop for your 3-step plan for financial security in 2025: herfirst100k.com/SOS We spend so much time stressing over budgets, investments, credit scores—basically, all the numbers. But what if I told you the biggest financial decision you’ll ever make isn’t about money at all? In today’s episode, I’m getting real about the one life choice that will shape every part of your financial future—and yet, almost nobody talks about it. This isn’t another investing episode (though those are important too). This is about who you choose to build a life with, and why that decision matters more than almost anything else when it comes to your long-term wealth, career growth, and personal freedom. Whether you're single and dating, in a committed relationship, or reevaluating your partnership, I’m breaking down what a healthy, equitable financial relationship actually looks like—and the red flags you cannot ignore. If you're ready to make smarter decisions about your love life and your financial life, this is your episode. Let’s dig into the conversation that could save your money—and maybe even your peace.

You know that little voice in your head that says, “What will they think?” The one that’s held you back from hitting publish, setting a boundary, or even just being yourself? Yeah, we’re done with that. In this episode, I sit down with the iconic Mel Robbins to talk about how to finally stop caring what other people think—and start living for yourself. This isn’t your typical self-help chat. It’s real, unfiltered, and hands down one of the most vulnerable conversations we’ve had on the show. We’re not just talking about why it’s time to let go of other people’s opinions—we’re unpacking how to do it, especially when it’s your parents, your boss, or your internet trolls. Mel shares how she navigates criticism, the emotional toll of success, and why it’s not your job to manage other people’s feelings. If you’ve ever felt held back by fear of judgment, or struggled to show up as your full self—this episode will change the way you see your life, your relationships, and your ambition.

If you've ever scrolled through Instagram wondering how your favorite creators are jet-setting to Paris, sipping cocktails in Bali, or scoring first class seats—all “for free”—and thought, "How the hell are they doing that?”, this episode is your step-by-step guide. I sat down with one of my closest friends (and the first person I text whenever I’m stumped on how to use my points), travel and credit card expert Janelle Rupkalvis. She’s saved over $100,000 on luxury travel using credit card points and miles, and today, she's sharing exactly how to play the credit card game—and win. We’re talking about how to find the best travel deals, the most common credit card mistakes (and how to avoid them), how to redeem points the smart way, and the exact tools Janelle uses to unlock five-star experiences without the price tag. This episode is perfect if you're new to travel hacking or if you’ve got a ton of points and zero clue what to do with them. We’re talking business class, tropical destinations, travel insurance, sign-up bonuses—and yes, how to make credit cards work for you, not the other way around.

True crime lovers and financial feminists, buckle up — this one’s a wild ride. In today’s episode, I sit down with Emma Ferris, a renowned stress and resilience coach, podcaster and speaker, who shares the jaw-dropping story of how she was conned out of $150,000 by someone she thought she could trust — her romantic partner. Yep, this story has it all: love bombing, secret identities, fake businesses, and a bank sting operation worthy of a Netflix series. But more importantly, Emma walks us through the emotional aftermath — the shame, the trauma, and the bravery it took to reclaim her money, her voice, and her sense of self.

Ever wondered what it’s like behind the scenes at Saturday Night Live? Well, you’re in for a treat because today I’m sitting down with SNL writer and comedian Ceara O’Sullivan—the brilliant mind behind the viral Domingo sketch. Ceara takes us inside the fast-paced world of late-night comedy, sharing what it’s like to write and pitch sketches for one of the most iconic TV shows of all time. From the grueling weekly schedule at SNL to what actually happens when a sketch bombs, Ceara gives us an inside look at a dream job that’s equal parts exhilarating and exhausting. But this episode isn’t just about SNL—it’s about the hustle, the rejection, and the financial realities of being a creative. Ceara opens up about her journey from improv in Boston to TikTok during the pandemic, to finally landing SNL (on her second attempt!). We also get into the economics of being a comedian—how she manages money in a field with unpredictable income, when she knew it was time to become an S Corp, and how much it actually costs to build a career in entertainment. If you’ve ever been curious about what it takes to break into comedy, or you just want to hear some wild behind-the-scenes stories from SNL’s 50th season, this episode is for you.

Talking about money with your partner can feel awkward, overwhelming, or straight-up terrifying—but avoiding it? That’s a guaranteed way to create resentment, stress, and financial chaos. Nearly half of couples argue about money, and 36% say it's one of the biggest sources of stress in their relationships. So, how do we break the cycle and actually have productive, meaningful conversations about money with the person we love? Enter Ramit Sethi—money expert, bestselling author of I Will Teach You to Be Rich, and the host of Netflix’s How to Get Rich. He’s here to help us navigate the messy, emotional, and psychological side of managing finances as a couple. We’re getting real about why money fights happen, the invisible scripts we bring into relationships, and how to align financially even when you and your partner have wildly different incomes, spending habits, or financial values. Plus, we’re tackling one of the biggest taboos—what happens when a woman earns more than her male partner. If you want to stop arguing about money and start feeling financially aligned, this episode is a must-listen.

Register for our free investing workshop: https://herfirst100k.com/secrets Investing your money is one of the most powerful ways to build wealth—but before you even buy your first stock, you’re faced with one of the biggest questions: Which investing platform should you choose? Should you go with a financial advisor? Trust a robo-advisor to do the work for you? Or should you DIY your investments through an all-in-one platform? Each option has its own set of pros, cons, and hidden pitfalls—and I’m breaking it all down for you in this episode. Today, I’ll walk you through the three main investing routes, expose the sneaky fees that could cost you thousands (or even hundreds of thousands) over time, and help you decide which option is the best fit for you. Plus, I’ll share my personal recommendations, including the platform I don’t recommend for most people. Stick around to the end, and I’ll give you my favorite tool for getting started—without the stress, confusion, or financial bro jargon.

Grief is something we all experience, yet no one really prepares us for how to handle it—or how to support others going through it. And here’s the thing: grief isn’t just about losing a loved one. It can come from a breakup, losing a job, or even mourning the life you thought you’d have. In today’s episode, I sit down with Carla Fernandez, co-founder of The Dinner Party and author of Renegade Grief: A Guide to the Wild Ride of Life After Loss, to talk about what grief really looks like, why loneliness makes it harder, and how we can build stronger communities to support ourselves and others through loss. We also dive into something that doesn’t get talked about enough—the financial impact of grief—and why having a plan in place is one of the greatest acts of love you can give your family. This conversation is honest, raw, and surprisingly hopeful. Carla’s insights will shift the way you think about grief, loneliness, and community care, whether you’re navigating loss yourself or supporting someone who is.

Divorce can be one of the most emotionally and financially challenging experiences of a person’s life. And yet––so many of us walk into marriage without truly understanding the financial implications of merging (and potentially untangling) our lives. In this episode, I sit down with photographer, entrepreneur, and coach Kristin Sweeting, who openly shares her story of getting divorced at 29, the financial mistakes she made, and how she rebuilt her wealth from the ground up. We’re talking about everything from the hidden costs of divorce to why prenups should be a standard practice—and the crucial financial steps every person should take before (and during) marriage. Whether you're married, single, or somewhere in between, this episode is packed with financial lessons.

What happens when you lose control over the very thing that defines you—your voice, your art, your career? That’s exactly what JoJo faced after signing her first record deal at just 12 years old. A child prodigy turned global pop sensation, JoJo’s career skyrocketed before she found herself locked in a restrictive contract, unable to release new music and legally fighting for her own voice. But instead of letting the industry silence her, she fought back—re-recording her early albums, going independent, and even taking on Broadway. In this episode, JoJo gets real about the highs and lows of her journey, from navigating the brutal music industry to discovering the power of financial freedom. She shares how reclaiming ownership of her art was one of the most empowering moves of her career, how Broadway changed the way she prepares for performances, and why money has been the key to making decisions from a place of power—not fear. If you’ve ever felt stuck, underestimated, or unsure of how to take control of your future, JoJo’s story is proof that resilience and self-worth can change everything.

That’s why I brought on today’s guest, Malia Razzaia, Executive Director of Dress For Success Seattle, to break it all down. Malia has spent years helping women navigate career transitions, salary negotiations, and the systemic barriers that still hold us back.

Today’s guest probably needs no introduction, because I’m sure you’ve heard of him. The Points Guy, aka Brian Kelly, is joining us live in studio to talk about how he transformed his love for travel and financial management into a platform that helps millions of people around the world. We dive into everything from how reward programs have evolved over the years to the big changes the travel industry has seen since 2010. In this interview he shares personal stories—especially how he navigated the stress of the 2008 financial crisis—and tons of practical tips for anyone looking to choose the right travel credit cards and maximize points and miles. We also cover common travel challenges like jet lag and flying with kids (something I know many of us have struggled with!). Beyond that, we chat about how to be strategic with your travel bookings, why booking directly through the airline can often be better than using OTAs, and why travel insurance is such a lifesaver. If you’re hoping to get more bang for your buck (or points) the next time you take a trip, this is an episode you don’t want to miss!

If you’ve been struggling to break free from credit card debt––you’re in the right place. In this episode, I’m diving deep into one of the most commonly requested topics: the ins and outs of credit card debt. We’ll uncover how sneaky interest rates can chip away at your hard-earned money every single day and explore powerful strategies to help you tackle that high-interest debt so you can finally breathe easy. As someone who’s dedicated to helping women save money, invest, and feel financially confident, I firmly believe that understanding your debt is the first crucial step in breaking free from it. When we take back control of our finances, we collectively fight the patriarchy—by making ourselves richer, savvier, and fully in control of our money.

Have you ever wondered what “real power” looks like when it isn’t tied to manipulation or the patriarchy’s playbook? In this eye-opening episode, I sat down with Kasia Urbaniak, former professional dominatrix, long-time Taoist practitioner, and women’s empowerment coach, to reveal the subtle ways we give up our power—and exactly how to take it back. We’re talking about personal agency, unapologetic desire, and how to step into every room—boardroom or bedroom—with the kind of confidence that amplifies your voice and serves your well-being. If you’ve ever found yourself holding back from asking for a raise, a favor, or even a simple upgrade because you fear rejection or being labeled “too much,” this episode will be your game-changer.

Hey Financial Feminists I'm beyond excited to bring you an eye-opening conversation with Marina Gerner, the author of The Vagina Business. We’re discussing the shocking gender biases in healthcare — from the staggering lack of medical research focused on women's health to the uphill battles female entrepreneurs face when pitching women-centric innovations. This episode is packed with actionable insights on how we can support better research, champion women-owned businesses, and finally start talking openly about the topics that impact us most.
