S22E8: Heal Your Relationship With Money with Kara Stevens, the Frugal Feminista May 24, 2024

Show notes

Hey lady! We’re nearing the halfway point of the year, which is always a good time to take a beat, reflect on how the year is going and pivot if you need to. This week, Kara Stevens, aka the Frugal Feminista, joins Terri and Dr. Dom to discuss how we can make small adjustments in our mindsets that can result in big shifts in our material world.
Kara talks about her journey from impressive academic achievement and leadership in secondary education to leaving that world behind and journeying into a life that is full of passion and financial freedom. She outlines the blueprint for organizing your money to achieve financial freedom and focus on the things that matter to you so you can have sustainable wealth. And, the good news is that budget does not have to be a dirty word. In fact, a good budget is one that does not one that exists in deprivation rather gives you a roadmap to your life of comfort and joy.
So, take a deep breath and set some intentions to help you get your mind right for the gems Kara drops. The keys to your financial future reside there first!
Quote of the Day:
"No amount of money in your bank account will make you feel safe unless you feel safe in your mind first."

S22E3: Me Time Makeover: Why You Should Prioritize Time With Self Apr 19, 2024

Show notes

Hey lady! We’ve all heard about the importance of self-care, but how often do we hear about “me time”? You know that elusive section of time where it’s just you and you? The time you spend with yourself is critical to your continued evolution, development, and growth no matter what season of life you find yourself in. However, finding that time can be a different story when you have a full life of demands and responsibilities. Terri and Dr. Dom can relate and have tips and techniques to help you bake in me time so that your cup stays full and you can keep the most important relationship you have, the one with yourself, healthy and vibrant.
Check out the Aftershow for a list of positive affirmations that you can carry with you throughout the day. And, remember sis, you’re worthy of the best, so be sure you’re giving yourself just that!
Tips for cultivating Me Time:
1. Quality over quantity:
· Whether it's five minutes or five hours, what's most important is doing something that pours into you.
2. Set boundaries to guard your time
· Set alarms or timers to keep yourself honest about your time.
· Communicate your needs with others
3. Make sure it is SOLO time
· The time with self is different from being lonely; reframe how you look at time alone.
4. Be flexible
· You don’t have to do the same things all the time
Quote of the Day:
"You cannot pour from an empty cup. Take time to nourish yourself and treat you the way you want others to treat you."
– Dr. Dom
