I don't wonder it jokingly. He has shared with me that in the past, he experienced some financial abuse (including financial infidelity). I love my boyfriend and I respect his money. But, some of the behaviors he describes from his past sound a bit like the arrangement we currently have going on.


In this conversation, we dive into his experience, thoughts and perspective. SPOILER ALERT: he says I'M NOT financially abusing him.


Money can be complicated and having conversations around money can be even more so. Tune into this episode to be a fly on the wall of a real life insecurity of mine.

And also, have you looked around lately? It's quite hard to exist #whyiseverythingsoexpensive


Enough with the unproductive self-talk. Instead focus on the below


  1. Mindset: Stop saying 'I'm terrible with money', your brain will believe you. Instead try 'I get better with money every day'.
  2. Habits: When's the last time you audited your habits? e.g. Does tap to pay REALLY 'save your life'? Or does it lead to more purchases due to ease
  3. Systems: If you rely on 'willpower' and 'willpower' only, you may take longer to reach your goals. Just set up your systems amiga. You've got a life to live


Nobody is 'good' with money and it's time we stopped using that as a measure of our abilities. Instead, lets focus on the beliefs, habits, and systems that'll get us where we're meant to go.

#22: Are you actually underpaid or do you just not believe that you can make more money?💸


As someone who grew up watching my parents work 2 jobs to make ends meet, I grew up thinking I had to do the same. These unchecked beliefs kept me broke for far too long. Additionally, the fact that I was already breaking cycles - like being the first to graduate college, being the first to fly internationally, being the first to land a corporate job - made it really difficult for me to see that HOLD UP: MORE is still available to me. I don't have to stop at just having it 'better than my parents'. In other words - I don't have to stay broke.


In this episode Cara Santamaria - career growth coach, speaker and host of 'The First Gen Coach' Podcast, breaks down the mindset shifts required to go from dreaming of more money to ACTUALLY making more.


Carla gives us a 3 step roadmap to stop underearning and make more money.

  1. Double your belief
  2. Get CLEAR on what you want
  3. Schedule the time to apply to jobs (or if an entrepreneur, to make those CEO moves!)

Carla did not hold back. Amiga, are you ready to make more money? Tune into this episode and learn how.

But low key, you knew that you absolutely could?


In this episode, I share with you how the tech bros at my old corporate job are the reason why I built Money for Mujeres.


Episode Highlights:

  • I thought I couldn't do it so I said 'not for me' and gave up on it for 5 years
  • Later I found out I COULD do it, and that it wasn't 'too complicated'
  • How you can invest too with $10 at a time, and then teach everyone you care about how to do it too


I could be angry that I was made to feel incompetent. But, I'm glad because if I hadn't been, I wouldn't have become the 'Retire on Time' teacher. Thank you, tech bros for handing me my life's passion.

In this episode, my partner of 2 years and I share how we manage money as a couple including, who pays for what, do we have joint bank accounts, does one pay more for 'fun' stuff and what happens when we have different POVs on spending?


We talk about the shame that can come up when 1 partner makes less than the other and the empathy required to have difficult money conversations.


In the second half of the episode, I throw some rapid fire audience questions at Edward, like:

  1. How did we initiate the conversation around money?
  2. How do we gift give in our relationship?
  3. Do we use non violent communication when talking to each other?
  4. What about pre-nups?


I told Edward to be honest in this interview. And I'm not going to lie.... he took that to heart. (phew)

This episode is for the person who is done shaming themselves about it and who is READY to get to the root of why making a change is so hard. More specifically, it's for the person who is ready to take the action required to make a change.


⭐️⭐️Super Mega Spoiler⭐️⭐️


You aren’t taking action because your subconscious thoughts are overpowering your conscious ones.

Your brain is defaulting to survival patterns that have worked for you so many times before - but this keeps you playing small.


It’s time to explore your subconscious, rewire your habits, and take the action you're meant to.


Tune into this episode to hear:

  1. A case study: How my unresolved experiences led to issues with self trust and visibility and how this led to not making big moves in business.
  2. Learn how to witness and acknowledge YOUR limitations and break free from constrictive patterns that no longer serve you: lessons from Peter Krone aka the mind Architect.
  3. Discern whether you want to live your best but limited life OR whether you are willing to break down your subconscious limitations and allow the abundance that's already yours to flow in.


⭐️⭐️After you finish this episode, Listen to Jasmine Star’s episode with Peter Krone aka the mind architect to REALLY wrangle with your subconscious mind⭐️⭐️

#13: What does financial abuse in families look like?💸

Can my own sibling inflict financial abuse on me? What about a cousin? A distant relative? The answer is absolutely.

  1. In this episode, I went to Reddit to share some real life examples of financial abuse in families. Financial abuse is a spectrum, it can be something small or something that takes 100% of control from an individual.
  2. Then, Justine De Peralta, Author of ‘Girl, Jump: Building a Financial Safety Net to Leave an Abusive Relationship and Reclaim Your Freedom’ and I have a conversation about money red flags in families. We also briefly touch on the financial burden that often is left to the child of an aging parent.
  3. Finally, we discuss how even when our loved ones are healing money traumas of their own, it is not on us to be the solution to their every issue. There are other ways we can help, both empowering them and not inhibiting our personal growth. 

💸Make sure you check out Episode 11 to learn the 4 step process of non-violent communication. Justine walked us through having a successful yet difficult money conversations with loved ones.

How do I Politely Tell my Friend?]]> Sat, 08 Feb 2025 23:25:19 GMT 26:48 67a7e67f3ef0b176ea4d8d84 true https://shows.acast.com/chng-tu-money/episodes/money-boundaries-i-cant-afford-to-go-out-how-do-i-politely-t 67a7e67f3ef0b176ea4d8d84 664a2f6f2b7315001245d439 money-boundaries-i-cant-afford-to-go-out-how-do-i-politely-t full 11 #11: Listen. Sometimes we just can't afford that thing that our friend/family wants us to do. And other times - we just don't want to spend our hard earned money there.


How do we communicate our needs lovingly? And without pissing our loved ones off?


Justine De Peralta, Certified Financial Education Instructor, Domestic Violence Counselor, and Author of ‘Girl, Jump: Building a Financial Safety Net to Leave an Abusive Relationship and Reclaim Your Freedom’ walks me through the 4 steps of non-violent communication.

  1. Share an observation
  2. Share your feeling
  3. Share your needs
  4. Tie it together with a request: e.g. 'Would you be willing to have dinner at a non fine-dining restaurant'?

My friend, Justine De Peralta, is coming to San Antonio at the end of the month, and I only have $80 to spend during her time here. I practice using these 4 steps with this real life example on this episode! It was NOT easy.


Was Justine REALLY okay with this budget? How did I approach the conversation? And does it mean I'm cheap?


Tune in for this and so much more!

What financial red flags do I look for in romantic relationships? How do I know if I am experiencing financial abuse?


Today Justine De Peralta, Author of ‘Girl, Jump: Building a Financial Safety Net to Leave an Abusive Relationship and Reclaim Your Freedom’ and I chat about some financial red flags to look out for.


Key Takeaways:

  1. If something doesn't feel right when it comes to money in your relationship, explore that feeling. You are more capable than you know.
  2. Financial Abuse is a spectrum. It can be total dependence on your partner. It can be your partner sabotaging your work. It can be your partner griping at every single purchase you make or being sneaky about their money. Listen to the signs your body gives you. Then, find your next right step.
  3. Justine shares 3 general tips one could take to have more autonomy of their money. For a personalized safety exit plan, visit the resources linked below.

Justine is a Certified Financial Education Instructor, a Domestic Violence Counselor and Author. Justine specializes in helping BIPOC women and domestic violence survivors develop confidence and financial literacy skills needed to navigate challenging financial situations.

Y amiga, who benefits from your fear? Investing for retirement can be simple. And I’m here to help you. 


  1. Because of our friend inflation, there is no way to ‘save for retirement’ without buying investments in a retirement account.
  2. Your money needs TIME to grow in the stock market. In fact, time is the biggest indicator of how much your money will grow. Start now. Even $5 at a time.
  3. Investing can be simple. I invest for retirement, and ignore all of the 'crypto this, nfts that, and day-trading' noise. Buy quality investments, and hold them until you retire.
  4. You are worthy of having the option to actually stop working at retirement. Don't let these society convince you that its too hard or its too complicated.


We run through a demo of actually buying an investment on my iPhone 13 mini.


I also walk you through a compound interest calculator so you can see how much your money can grow. Even $5 at a time.


If you do anything for yourself this year, PLEASE listen to this episode in it’s entirety.

]]> New Year, Healed Money Mindset: How to Start Understanding Your Money Story with Jasmine Lopez, Joy-Based Money Coach New Year, Healed Money Mindset: How to Start Understanding Your Money Story with Jasmine Lopez, Joy-Based Money Coach Sun, 01 Dec 2024 13:55:45 GMT 42:59 674c6ae2a12aa4423269799b false https://shows.acast.com/chng-tu-money/episodes/new-year-healed-money-mindset-how-to-start-understanding-you 674c6ae2a12aa4423269799b 664a2f6f2b7315001245d439 new-year-healed-money-mindset-how-to-start-understanding-you full 8 #8: Most of us want to level up our money mindset and better understand our money traumas. Yet, oftentimes, we don't know where to start.


Jasmine Lopez, a joy-based money coach and founder of financial wellness brand, Mentally Mutually, shares how to take the first step in understanding our money mindset.


"Oftentimes a lot of the trauma in our lived experience is held in our body" she said. "An invitation for us is to pause and be able to say, 'I am going to give myself the permission to pause, so that I can connect with my body, so that I can identify, What are these triggers?' And here are some ways that I can move my body, talk through my body, even yell through my body to release some of those tensions and challenges we're feeling'".


Key Takeaways:

  1. Understand your money story and remove shame from it
  2. Question what capitalism conditions you to believe
  3. Take a moment to connect with your body when you experience a financial trigger or activation so that you can identify the next step
  4. Experience healing in robust ways: dancing, singing, eating in community, connecting to breath
  5. The journey to financial abundance is on-going, stay the course


Jasmine grew up in a single parent Latina home on the southwest side of Chicago. After filing for bankruptcy in 2010, Jasmine redefined what success looked like to her. From creating her nonprofit, The Firehouse Dream, to founding a financial wellness brand, Mentally Mutual, Jasmine continues to advocate for pay equity for herself, her family, and the community around her.

There is an art to meaningful giving. I have been 'cheap' before. I've also given useless gifts for the sake of giving before. I've racked up credit card debt when I should have set a boundary for myself before. But, no more. My gift giving evolves as I do. And so will yours.

Today's episode highlights the importance of reflecting on the money habits and lessons we observed as kids. Are those lessons holding us back? And if so, what can we do to break free?


We also discuss how the people around us - whether explicitly or subconsciously influence how we see the world - and therefore what we think is possible.


Finally, we talk about the importance of saying goodbye to our old identity and stepping into our new identity. No matter, how freaking terrifying that might be.

]]> How I Saved Money on Housing by Renting a Room for 4 Years How I Saved Money on Housing by Renting a Room for 4 Years Sun, 01 Sep 2024 14:01:29 GMT 14:15 66d450e15012e5ffd0eb3354 true https://shows.acast.com/chng-tu-money/episodes/how-i-saved-money-on-rent-by-renting-a-room-in-a-house-for-4 66d450e15012e5ffd0eb3354 664a2f6f2b7315001245d439 how-i-saved-money-on-rent-by-renting-a-room-in-a-house-for-4 full 4 #4: 'You can afford anything, but not everything' -Afford Anything Podcast.


By renting a room in a house for 4 years, I was able to repeatedly max out my IRA - even on 30k a year. What led me down that path? A monthly car payment that was MORE than what I was paying in rent.


This episode introduces the idea that we can and should challenge society's expectations of us. Need to get a roommate for a few months to free up some cash? Do it. Want to be a 1 car household for a year? The choice is yours and the options are limitless. Enjoy the show!
