The Ridiculously Simple Way to Finding Authenticity With Your Money with Catherine Collins

Are you ready to get rid of debt but don't know where to start? In this vault episode, I explain how to think about debt, strategies to pay it off, and why being completely debt-free should never be the goal. Just a quick note: this episode is not just for newbies. As a financial planner, I worked with people of all ages who couldn’t figure out how to handle debt. So, you are not alone if you’re struggling with debt. You'll learn the two strategies to pay off debt, how to deal with the emotions around debt, and a deep dive into my debt story.

If you’re in a relationship, love and money can be tricky topics! Talking about money with your partner, let alone figuring out your shared goals and vision for life, often falls to the backburner - the “I’ll do it later” list. That’s why I’m sitting down with the incredible Emily Luk, CEO and co-founder of Plenty, to tackle the topic of money in relationships. Plenty is a wealth platform for modern couples to invest and plan their futures together. In this episode, Emily shares some amazing insights on why communication is key and how focusing on shared goals can bring you closer. Plus, we’ll discuss the importance of accessible financial tools and investment opportunities for everyone because financial confidence shouldn’t be reserved for the wealthy.  But that’s not all—Emily also shares how we can conquer that sneaky little voice in our heads that whispers we never have enough. Especially for us women, this feeling of financial scarcity is all too familiar, and it doesn’t always go away just because we’re earning more. So, how do we ditch that “not enough” mindset? We’ll unpack how societal messages play a big role in shaping our beliefs and, more importantly, how we can flip the script.

The Fed, the Fed, The Fed, you’ve heard this a lot if you listen to the news. You’re probably thinking, ok, so why should care what the FED does, and who are they anyway? Well, the Fed will most likely lower the interest rates on Wed, Sep 18th (one day after I’m recording this episode) and one day before you’re hearing this episode. I think it’s time we talk about who the fed is, why they are lowering the interest rate, and probably more important to you…What should you be doing after it’s dropped?
