Episode Summary:
Most people think they need more discipline to stop overspending, but what they really need is the skill of spending with intention. In this episode of Becoming the Wealthy You, Germaine breaks down how to spend money in ways that feel good both in the moment and after the fact, without sabotaging your long-term goals.
Inside this episode, you'll learn:
Why you keep overspending (even when you know better)
How to spend in a way that aligns with your values
The cost of mindless spending, and what it could be funding instead
A powerful mindset shift: every “yes” is a “no” to something else
Why spending intentionally can bring you more joy and less stress
If you’re ready to wake up from the cycle of spending regret and start using your money to build a life you love, this one’s for you.
Key Takeaways:
Spend with intention, not shame. Learn how to create boundaries that support both present joy and future wealth.
Use your money to enhance your life. It’s not about never spending, it’s about spending on purpose.
