Unf*ck Your Money Thoughts: How to Think...

Shari Rash, Money Podcast for Women, Personal Finance, Relationships & Mental Health
About this episode

What’s the first thought that pops into your head about money? If it’s not sunshine and rainbows, you’re not alone. The truth is, your brain has been hijacked by years of programming from your family, society, and the endless BS we’re fed about money. That programming? It’s what’s keeping you stuck, stressed, and in a constant cycle of scarcity.

But here’s the kicker: It doesn’t have to be this way.

In this powerhouse reboot episode, I’m joined by Kara Loewentheil, J.D., Master Certified Coach, and creator of the top-rated podcast Unf*ck Your Brain*. Kara’s here to drop the ultimate guide to rewiring your money mindset with tools that actually work.

Spoiler alert: Your wiring—not your willpower—is the reason you’re not where you want to be with your money. But with Kara’s genius Thought Ladder technique, you’ll learn how to flip the script, ditch shame, and start thinking thoughts that actually serve you (instead of sabotaging you).

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • How to break free from a scarcity mindset and live like abundance is your new normal.
  • Why you don’t have to hide your purchases anymore (yep, stop the guilt spiral).
  • A simple, practical process to climb your way to better money thoughts—and better results.
