I'm Nicole Lappin, the only financial expert you don't need a dictionary to understand. It's time for some money rehab.
Hi, I'm Claire Wasserman, and I'm guest hosting for Nicole while she's out on maternity leave. My day job is running Ladies Get Paid, a coaching practice, podcast, and newsletter that helps you increase your worth inside and out. This episode is a little bit different from the other ones where I was coaching real women through their work and money challenges.
Instead, today, I'm going to be coaching you. That's right, you and me a little bit. What we're going to be focusing on is how to relieve and release financial anxiety, or as I like to call it, broke baggage. Because here's the thing, there is a number in your bank account, and then there's how you feel about that number.
And everything that I'm going to share with you comes from what I've seen, what I've experienced, and what I've learned. I run a community of 55,000 members who've exchanged more than 3 million messages. I've been in over $4 million worth of debt. Yes, $4 million. And I have a master's certificate in financial psychology because, quite frankly, I was sick of my own broke baggage.
Maybe let me define what broke baggage is real quickly. So broke baggage is this feeling that you never have enough money, no matter how much is in your account. Broke baggage is feeling guilty or uncomfortable to ask for more. Broke baggage is feeling like you're drowning and you can never get your head above water.
In short, broke baggage is feeling like money controls you and not the other way around. Now, listen, I am not going to gaslight you and tell you that financial anxiety is all in your head because, quite frankly, money does make things easier. See, money buys you time. It buys you space. It buys you freedom. But not to be cliche, more money, more problems too, right?
Or more money and the same problems. Because like I said, what is in your bank account doesn't matter as much as how you feel about what's in your bank account. If this is feeling resonant with you, welcome, you are in the right place. Now I'm going to say something that you probably won't believe at first, but if you stick with me, I'm going to show you how to do this. Okay.
