Have you ever wondered why you think about money the way you do? 🌱 In this episode, Bri and Dr. Jay dive into the powerful (and often hidden) ways our upbringing shapes our financial mindsets.

Bri opens up about growing up with a religious lens on money, while Dr. Jay reflects on a family focus on personal excellence. Together, they explore privilege, financial guilt, and the responsibility that comes with financial advantages.

But here’s the kicker: Negative money mindsets can hold us back—so how do we confront and change them? Bri and Dr. Jay share actionable steps, including exploring tools like financial therapy, to help you reflect, grow, and build a healthier relationship with money.

Being childfree comes with unique financial opportunities and challenges—and planning for the future requires a different approach. In this episode, we explore key strategies for childfree individuals to secure their financial independence and live a fulfilling life.

We dive into the “die with zero” philosophy—focusing on fully enjoying your wealth during your lifetime instead of saving it for inheritance. Learn why long-term care, estate planning, and proper insurance (like disability insurance) are essential for your childfree journey.

We’ll also discuss how to prepare for life’s unexpected twists, from relationship changes to shared living arrangements, with flexibility and confidence. Whether you’re in your 30s, 40s, or beyond, it’s never too early to craft a plan for a rich and meaningful life—on your terms.
