Why Money Fear Keeps You Stuck—and How t...

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

Money fear is real. Feeling stuck in a job, a relationship, or a situation because of money? That’s real. Worrying that you’ll never have “enough” or that you’ll never figure it out? Yep, that’s real too.

But here’s the truth: You are in control.

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Emilie Aries, founder of Bossed Up and host of the Bossed Up Podcast, to talk about how she faced her own money fears, walked away from what wasn’t working, and learned that financial self-care is the most radical act of self-love.

This conversation is real, raw, and will make you rethink everything you believe about money, success, and owning your life.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  • Why money fear keeps you stuck—and how to break free
  • The holy sht* moment Emilie had that changed how she saw money forever
  • How to stop outsourcing your power and make money decisions like a boss
  • The reason financial self-care is THE self-care move no one talks about
  • How to walk away from what’s draining you—even when it’s scary as hell
