Is money stress making every week feel like a fight you didn’t sign up for? Cost of living tips not really cutting it? Well, we need to talk about money and mental health… not to mention the cost of living and mental health!


In this episode of the Let’s Talk About Mental Health podcast with Jeremy Godwin, I look at how the cost of living is out of control and what that does to your mind and body. I break down why financial anxiety triggers threat mode, how money worries create decision fatigue, and why shame keeps you stuck (and makes it tough to work on your financial wellness). I’m sharing practical ways to cope with financial stress that focus on better mental health first: a simple 10-minute weekly reset I use, quick calming practices for your nervous system, and realistic boundaries you can set to protect your peace while you deal with the numbers. If you’re overwhelmed by rising costs and tired of feeling on edge, this is for you. 


👉 Ready to reclaim some headspace and feel more in control (in spite of how expensive everything is these days)? Then let’s talk!


💡 TL;DR: Feeling crushed by money stress and rising costs? This episode explains what it’s doing to your mind and body, and how to start taking back control of your peace.
