Want to stop overspending without shame, restriction, or another “try harder” spiral? This episode is your permission slip to get organized in a way that actually feels nourishing.
In episode two of the Money Motivation Series, I’m breaking down overspending as emotional regulation and showing you how to create real nervous system safety with money, using a weekly spending account, simple tracking, and a system that meets both sides of your money blueprint: the practical (2nd house) and the emotional subconscious (8th house).
You’ll learn why this is not a willpower issue, how to give your money a job so it stops running your life, and the tools I use personally as a lifelong “spender” who’s committed to building a cash-positive future. If you’re ready to feel calmer, clearer, and more in control of your spending in 2026, this is where we start.
WE EXPLORE
✧ Why overspending is often emotional regulation, not a discipline problem.
✧ Spender vs. Saver paradigm, and how to meet your money habits in the middle.
✧ 2nd house vs. 8th house money in astrology: practical systems vs. emotional patterns.
✧ Why “budgeting” can feel triggering and how a weekly spending account creates freedom.
✧ How to set up a weekly spending account (and what to track each week).
✧ My 3-category tracking method: groceries, eating out, miscellaneous.
✧ The hidden cost of money avoidance and how it compounds over time.
✧ Sinking funds: how to plan for predictable expenses without using debt.
✧ Living cash-based, why I chose it, and what it revealed about my patterns.
✧ “Give your money a job or it will give you a job,” and how to apply that immediately.
