S3_E23 Broke Girl Habits (that made me wealthy)
Manage episode 479710121 series 3503595
Today, we’re talking about the habits I picked up when I had very little money—habits that I have intentionally kept even as I became unapologetically wealthy. And here’s the thing: a lot of what keeps women financially stuck has nothing to do with what we earn and everything to do with what we’re taught to spend on.
The truth is, women are subjected to a relentless pressure to look a certain way. From hair, to weight, to fashion, we are quietly taxed every single day just to be seen as “professional” or “acceptable.” This pink tax doesn’t just hurt our wallets—it delays our financial independence.
In this episode, I unpack:
How societal pressures sabotage women’s savings and investment goals
The reality behind the so-called "pink tax" on women
The 5 (plus one sneaky extra!) broke girl habits I still live by
Hacks for looking and feeling fabulous without blowing your wealth goals
Why challenging price structures, subscription creep, and unnecessary spending is the ultimate feminist act
If you’re ready to get serious about building real wealth—and doing it on your terms—this is your permission slip to start (or keep going).
