Is your job helping you build the legacy you want—or just paying the bills?
This episode is for anyone feeling stuck in a role that’s financially stable but emotionally draining. If you’re wondering, “Is this really it?”—you’re not alone.

Happy Mother’s Day, Accelerators. 💐

This bonus minisode is for every mama who’s ever wondered if she’s doing enough, contributing enough, or being enough—especially when the work she’s doing is quiet, unseen, and unpaid.

Whether you’re a stay-at-home mom, working mom, part-time powerhouse, or doing a little of everything—you’re never just anything. The decisions, the coordination, the invisible load you carry? It matters more than you know.

In this short and soulful episode, I share:
💛 A love letter to the moms who keep their families running
📊 The real (and shocking!) dollar value of a stay-at-home mom's work
🎯 A reminder that your legacy is built in the little things
✨ One value-driven action to help you show up with intention this week

This is your reminder that the work you do—seen or unseen—is building a legacy that lasts.

🎁 Share this episode with a mom you admire. Let her know: We see you. You’re doing amazing work.

Are you trying to make it work—even when it doesn’t really work for you?

In this episode, I open up about our recent home buying experience—how we put in an offer, ran the numbers, and realized the biggest purchase wasn’t the house… it was the peace we were giving up to get it. From mental gymnastics to misaligned values, I walk you through the financial, emotional, and legacy-level cost of trying to force a decision that just doesn’t fit.

You’ll learn:
1️⃣ Why “we can make it work” might be your most expensive mindset.
2️⃣ The 2 big signs your budget and values are out of alignment.
3️⃣ How to say “not yet” without feeling like you’re missing out.
4️⃣ Why peace should be part of your return on investment.

This is your reminder that long-term legacy > short-term pressure. Don’t sacrifice your sanity for the sake of a strategy.

🎯 ACTION STEP: Identify one area where you’re forcing it financially—then pause or pivot.

In this Legacy in the Little Things minisode, I’m reflecting on the surprising arrival of my 15-year college reunion notice—and the powerful money lesson I hope my kids learn from me: boundaries matter.

From holiday overspending to everyday Target runs, I’m sharing why “not yet” is sometimes the most loving answer, and how modeling financial limits teaches our kids patience, self-control, and confidence.

💡 Take a moment with me to reflect: What money moment did your kids witness this week—and what did they learn from it?

Do you ever walk into Target for one thing… and walk out with ten? 🙋‍♀️ You’re not alone—and today we’re getting honest about what justified spending is doing to our wallets and our kids.

In this episode, we’re diving into the uncomfortable but critical conversation around financial entitlement—and how even our best intentions as parents can accidentally blur the lines between wants and needs. I share a real-life Target trip, the truth behind our Christmas overspending, and the mindset shift from guilt-based giving to legacy-based modeling.

You’ll learn:

• Why "justified" spending often leads to instant gratification—and debt
  
  
• How overspending on our kids can fuel entitlement, not empowerment
  
  
• The difference between modeling generosity and modeling stewardship
  
  
• 3 simple ways to start teaching your kids dignity, patience, and financial literacy—starting today

🎯 Plus, I’ll challenge you to reflect on your last 3 purchases for your child: were they intentional… or just convenient?

Is it really about finding a better job—or is it about creating a better life?

In this episode, I break down the real reasons we search for career change—and it’s not just about the paycheck. I walk you through the four core motivators that should drive your job decisions and life goals: time freedom, meaningful work, financial security, and personal autonomy.

Whether you're feeling burned out, underpaid, or just plain stuck, this episode will help you reflect on what matters most and how your career can (and should) support the life you actually want.

🎯 You’ll discover:

• Why most people don’t just want a different job—they want freedom
• The one question I ask all my coaching clients to help them find purpose
• Why earning more money isn’t enough without financial literacy
• How to build your career around your life, not the other way around
• The connection between wellbeing, wealth, and legacy

If you’re feeling out of alignment in your work or money, this episode is your sign to pause, reflect, and make a change.

Math doesn’t care about your feelings—and neither does your money.

In this episode, I share a real-life moment helping my daughter with third-grade math that sparked a powerful reminder: when it comes to numbers, there’s only one right answer. But with money? Emotions often cloud our judgment and sabotage our progress.

We dive deep into how emotions like guilt, fear, comparison, and entitlement can distort your financial decisions—and how to shift back into clarity and control. From lifestyle creep to overspending on your kids, from impulse purchases to avoiding your budget altogether, I walk you through how to take your feelings out of the equation and let the numbers tell the truth.

🎯 You’ll learn:

• Why your budget is a tool, not a morality test
• How emotional spending holds you back—and how to stop it
• The real cost of lifestyle creep and parental guilt
• Why making a lot of money doesn't mean you don’t need a budget
• How facing the truth about your money creates peace, confidence, and empowerment

If you want to raise money-smart kids, ditch the stress, and finally feel in control of your finances, this episode is for you.
