What if financial literacy was the missing key to unlocking your creativity?
In this heartfelt and high-impact episode of The Developing Life Podcast, we sit down with Bayleigh Laster—licensed occupational therapist turned financial educator—to explore how money mindset shapes our identity, work, and freedom.
·
Bayleigh shares her powerful transition from healthcare to financial mentorship after seeing how one medical event could devastate a family. She breaks down emotional barriers, busts myths around the “starving artist,” and teaches why treating yourself as an asset is the most radical creative move you can make.
·
We unpack:
✅ Why financial education is missing from our upbringing
✅ How to build an emergency fund with intention
✅ The Rule of 72 (and why it matters)
✅ Real-world strategies to stop reacting and start planning
✅ How shame blocks financial progress—and how to release it
✅ Replacing fear with future-focused clarity
If you’re a creative, freelancer, or independent thinker struggling with financial insecurity, this episode is your permission slip to feel empowered.
