Do you find yourself constantly saving, worried that spending a dime will lead to financial disaster? Or maybe you’ve been taught that money is meant for security, but never really questioned what that means for your happiness today? 


In this episode, we sit down with Rachel Durci, a Financial Wellness Coach & the Founder of Effortless Budgeting. She is passionate about supporting individuals & couples on reaching their financial goals through coaching, education & encouragement. 


Rachel explains that before you set any financial goals or budgets, you need to first focus on the mindset behind your money. She shares how your childhood experiences with money could shape your adult financial habits, and how, in order to break free from old patterns, we need to confront, forgive, and reframe the way we think about spending and saving.


If you're struggling to manage your money without stress or feeling stuck in a cycle of guilt around spending, this episode is for you!
