Jan 31, 2023•1 hr 4 min•Transcript available on Metacast Are you in a season of sacrifice? If so, you’re not going to want to miss this week’s episode of the podcast where we are talking all about financial sacrifices and why they are something that should be embraced and welcomed rather than dreaded. Many of us have been conditioned to believe that financial success looks like unlimited overflow and being able to do whatever we want, whenever we want without ever having to say “no”. But what we fail to remember is that any worthy result that has ever...
Jun 28, 2022•32 min•Transcript available on Metacast On average you think 60,000 thoughts every day. Although many of these thoughts are subconscious and go unnoticed, your mind is still a place that can become weighed down with thoughts that we hoard that don’t help us create the results that we want. With so much mental chatter we feel pulled in a million different directions and oftentimes we end our days feeling like we’re running on autopilot instead of consciously planning our futures. Imagine what it would be like if your brain was filled w...
Jun 21, 2022•39 min•Transcript available on Metacast When you think about the cleanliness and clarity of your finances what comes to mind? Does it feel like your finances are in a frenzy, or do your finances feel purposeful and intentional? Is your money (in both physical and electronic forms) organized or are your finances scattered across various accounts and channels that feel messy and chaotic? The truth is, we all have a relationship with our money and the level to which your finances are clear and organized is a direct correlation to the hea...
Jun 14, 2022•43 min•Transcript available on Metacast When you look at your external world and the things that fill it up does it align with who you are and what you desire most? Is there alignment there? Or does your environment feel heavy, cluttered, and disorganized and you find yourself asking “Why do I have this?” “What is this doing for me?” “What did I even buy this for?” We live in a culture obsessed with stuff and with acquisition and we've reached a tipping point where our physical possessions have become more suffocating than liberating....
Jun 07, 2022•39 min•Transcript available on Metacast Do you often feel like there is right way or a best way to do things when it comes to managing your money? Are you constantly trying out different budgeting strategies that don’t seem to work with your unique personality, goals, and lifestyle? If so, then you’re not going to want to miss this week’s episode of The Money Love Podcast with Kumiko Love, The Budget Mom. In this episode we discuss the entire cycle of budgeting and how to come up with a system and plan that works for you. We discuss f...
May 31, 2022•48 min•Transcript available on Metacast There’s a lot going on in the world right now that is impacting the bottom lines of our budget and wallets and many of us are losing money. We’re spending more than we’re used to spending (hello inflation). We’re seeing red within our investment accounts (oh hey bear market). We’re experiencing supply chain issues, a war in Ukraine, and we’re still recovering from the effects of a two year long global pandemic. Although the external circumstances in our world feel like a roller coaster, your men...
May 24, 2022•32 min•Transcript available on Metacast Do you often find yourself feeling jealous of other people and what they have? If so, this week’s episode of the podcast is one you won’t want to miss. Jealousy is an emotion that we have a deep misunderstanding of, and because of that, many of us are using it as a weapon against ourselves rather than a gift for ourselves. Jealousy can be a beautiful and enlightening emotion because it reveals to you what you truly desire. Once we uncover that desire, we can then use the results that other peopl...
May 17, 2022•33 min•Transcript available on Metacast Do you know what your unique spending triggers are? If not, this week’s episode of the podcast is one you won’t want to miss. A spending trigger is a cue that kicks off the chain of events in our model that ultimately leads to us overspending and impulse shopping. We can have circumstantial triggers in our external world and we can also experience mental and emotional triggers that occur within us. Your spending triggers are not something that you need to fear or spend exorbitant amounts of ener...
May 10, 2022•31 min•Transcript available on Metacast When it comes to the way we think about money, negative emotion and the way that the world works there are so many ways that we have it all wrong. These false truths and misleading assumptions are what I call thought errors . Thought errors are common beliefs that we have accepted around how the world works, but they aren’t actually the way the world works. They are untrue beliefs that are influencing our thinking, feeling, actions and results around money and other areas in our life in a negati...
May 03, 2022•43 min•Transcript available on Metacast Have you ever experienced buyer’s remorse around a purchase? If you have, then this week’s episode is for you. In order for us to beat buyer’s remorse for good, we have to gain a deeper understanding of what buyer’s remorse is and where it really comes from. So many of us who have experienced buyer’s remorse in the past think that the remorse, guilt, and regret is coming from the circumstances surrounding our purchase. We think that it’s the product's fault that we feel remorse when really the b...
Apr 26, 2022•36 min•Transcript available on Metacast Your debt is a neutral circumstance in your life, which means that you have the opportunity and the obligation to intentionally manage your thoughts around it. How skilled you become at observing, challenging, and managing your debt thoughts will determine your emotional experience around your debt which will fuel the actions you take around it and the results you create in terms of paying it off and using it in a way that helps you rather than hurts you. However, most of us never go through thi...
Apr 19, 2022•35 min•Transcript available on Metacast What are the predominant thoughts and emotions that you hold around debt? Are they mostly negative, or positive? I know for so many women in my community, including myself in the past, debt and the decision to take on debt was one that was very moral in nature. I viewed debt as something bad, and I made myself wrong for being someone who had taken on debt in the past. Because of that, my past experiences with debt were very negative and were filled with fear, anxiety, and shame. My entire experi...
Apr 12, 2022•53 min•Transcript available on Metacast What are your favorite thoughts to think about money? Do you even have any? Do you intentionally create the thoughts and beliefs you want to have about money based on what will help you create the financial results you want or do you let your brain run on default? Over the past couple of years I have identified, adopted, and practiced my favorite thoughts to think about money, one of which is “Thank God I’m Rich.” By practicing and adopting these thoughts about money as a part of my money belief...
Apr 05, 2022•33 min•Transcript available on Metacast Are you winning or losing with the purchasing decisions that you make? Many of us don’t even realize that when we are spending money, we are making an exchange of value. We get so numb to swiping our credit cards that we forgot to evaluate if we’re making a positive winning exchange with our money or a negative losing exchange with our money. The truth is that every time you spend money you are giving yourself the opportunity to either increase the level of value in your life, or decrease the le...
Mar 29, 2022•34 min•Transcript available on Metacast Many of us rely on the black and white “rules” of money that we feel we “should” be following to inform our financial decisions. When we do this, we create lives and financial realities that don’t reflect our purest desires but rather a version of our life that is based on obligation. But what if instead, we could use another tool besides these restrictive money rules to guide and inform the way we receive, have, and release money that allows us to create what we actually want? A tool that empow...
Mar 22, 2022•34 min•Transcript available on Metacast It's impossible to create the financial results that you want without experiencing discomfort. We are all programmed to believe that we can make choices with our money and with our spending where we can avoid discomfort altogether. We can't. Discomfort is coming along for the ride whether you want it to or not. With discomfort, the question isn't “Will I feel it?” . The question is rather “When will I feel it and to what extent?". When we impulsively make purchases and when we overspend, we are ...
Mar 15, 2022•30 min•Transcript available on Metacast Have you ever thought about what you’re buying yourself and what you’re creating for your future self when you’re not spending your money? For those of us who love to shop and spend, we view having and saving our money as the opposing force to what we really want. We think that having your money is boring, restrictive, and unnecessary. But what if I told you that wasn’t the case. What if I told you that you get to go shopping with every dollar you earn and the question isn’t “Should I save or sh...
Mar 08, 2022•30 min•Transcript available on Metacast Do you struggle with overspending? Do you find yourself using your money and spending as a way to avoid feeling negative emotions? Do you often find you’re spending money you don’t have or spending money on a whim? Are you not making the progress towards your financial goals you want because of your spending habits? If so, this episode of the podcast and my new program, Overcoming Overspending are for you. In this episode of The Money Love Podcast we’re talking about how we can overcome overspen...
Mar 01, 2022•36 min•Transcript available on Metacast What do you believe to be true about you? The thoughts that you think about yourself are the most important thoughts you think because they form your self-concept. Our self-concept feeds how confident, worthy, and capable we feel when it comes to managing our money at the highest level and it’s constantly either working for you or against you. The truth is, you are a self-fulfilling prophecy. The thoughts that you think about yourself will come true through the way we are designed as human being...
Feb 22, 2022•33 min•Transcript available on Metacast Have you ever felt ashamed over a past money decision you’ve made? Maybe you bought an item impulsively, you spent money you didn’t have resulting in debt, or you bought an item you didn’t get any use out of. If you’ve felt shame about your past spending choices you’re not alone. Shame is a deep-rooted and prevalent emotion that keeps us trapped in secrecy and judgment and if not dealt with properly keeps us from reaching our full financial potential. In this episode of The Money Love Podcast we...
Feb 15, 2022•41 min•Transcript available on Metacast What’s the best money you’ve ever spent? A time when you spent your money on an item, service, or experience where you felt good spending the money in the moment and you still felt amazing about the purchase a week, month, or year later? This is what I call "money well spent". Money that is spent where the value or result that you get from what you bought is more valuable to you than the money that you spent to acquire it. My ultimate goal is to help you align your spending so that most, if not ...
Feb 08, 2022•36 min•Transcript available on Metacast You’re being lied to. Every day, each of us consumes false messages from consumer culture that are fundamentally untrue. These messages have one goal and objective, which is to get you to spend your money on things that you don’t really need in order to create an emotional state you deeply desire. The lies of consumer culture are everywhere, and they run deep in our programming in how we think about money and ultimately, the purchasing decisions that we make. In this week’s episode of The Money ...
Feb 01, 2022•35 min•Transcript available on Metacast Your brain is not wired for balance. Your brain is wired for polarization. Your brain loves black and white all or nothing thinking and in all aspects of life, your brain wants you to pick a side and to not entertain that the opposite could be true. This is what quiets the cognitive dissonance between possibilities and creates the certainty that your brain is always seeking. This is even true in the way that we think about money which becomes problematic because when you’re not thinking about mo...
Jan 18, 2022•40 min•Transcript available on Metacast In this special bonus episode of The Money Love Podcast, I'm taking you through the personal highs and lows of 2021. From getting cars stolen to losing (multiple) jobs, to selling & buying houses, car accidents, and surgeries... 2021 was never short on surprises and challenges. However, it wasn't all bad. There were some pretty exciting beginnings last year as well that I'm excited to share with you. I then walk you through what is come in 2022, specifically delving out all the juicy details on ...
Jan 13, 2022•27 min•Transcript available on Metacast For the first time in a long time, I’m starting out a new year without any goals I'm working towards. I decided that I'm going to try something completely different in 2022. The truth is, I set some big, scary, crazy goals in 2021 and I didn't come anywhere close to hitting most of them. Like, I missed the mark big time . And then, I used missing the mark as a reason to beat myself up and I felt like a failure in so many ways. Now, I know I'm not alone here. In fact, only 9% of people actually a...
Jan 11, 2022•40 min•Transcript available on Metacast Do you create your thoughts on purpose? Or do you let your thoughts run on default and be based on past programming that isn’t serving you? The sad reality is that most people don’t realize that the quality of their thoughts will determine the quality of their lives and are the catalyst of every result they desire to create. Many adults live in a state of emotional childhood, attributing their emotions to their financial circumstances, and because of this they don’t realize the importance of the...
Dec 21, 2021•40 min•Transcript available on Metacast What would happen if you stripped away all the judgements, all the opinions, all the interpretations from your finances and you evaluated your current financial situation simply by the facts and the numbers? Doing this brings you into a place I call your pure financial circumstances, which ultimately is a place to rest from and escape the never-ending emotions, judgments and opinions we place on our financial situation. In this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast we’re talking all about a c...
Dec 14, 2021•39 min•Transcript available on Metacast Does your spouse’s spending choices drive you crazy? Or maybe they make you scratch your head in confusion with what they choose to spend money on? If this sounds like you, you’re not alone. The truth is, most couples don’t have similar or even complimentary money backgrounds and personalities which can lead to differences in spending, saving, and earning choices. The good news is, these differences don’t have to lead to division within your relationship. In fact, these differences can be used a...
Dec 07, 2021•40 min•Transcript available on Metacast What is the correlation that you make between your material wealth and your emotional wealth? Do you believe that one is dependent on the other? That in order to reach the highest levels of emotional wealth you must also achieve immense amounts of material wealth? The strong and positive correlation between material and emotional wealth is one of the most prominent, yet most damaging beliefs that we have about money. The problem is, it’s a belief that is widely socialized and deeply believed in ...
