May is Mental Health Month, and if there’s one thing we’ve learned from working with people and their money (and copious amounts of research) it’s that, generally, we’re stressed the f*ck out about our finances. In this episode, we invited Emalee and Jennifer of the Shrink Chicks to join us for a conversation on mental health. Tori and the Shrink Chicks dive into topics like the lack of accessible mental health care, why we carry our money traumas from previous generations, how to talk to your partner about finances, and more.

If the word “networking” leaves you *screaming-crying-throwing-up* –– you’re not alone. Networking hasn’t always had a negative connotation, but in recent years, networking events just feel like brag fests and places to collect business cards that will probably end up in a shoebox in the back of your closet. But networking doesn’t have to be hundred people events or sliding into people’s DMs unsolicited –– when done well, it can establish powerful connections with industry leaders and mentors that can help set you on the best path to success in your career long-term. To talk about the power of authentic networking, we sat down with Aleenah Ansari to talk about how she used networking to help land a job in tech without the traditional background or experience. Tori and Aleenah walk through what works and doesn’t work when you’re trying to connect with others in your career and how you might be missing a key step to building lasting relationships.

It’s estimated that 54 million people in the United States have a disability –– so how does this impact them financially and an individual level, and all of us, regardless of disability status as a societal level? Tori is joined by Xian Horn, a disability advocate, writer, and founder of the non-profit, Give Beauty Wings, to talk about the financial challenges facing people with disabilities. They discuss the practical ways this manifests in day-to-day life, like transportation and lower pay, but also the ways the social safety nets for people with disabilities are woefully lacking, and how we can advocate for people with disabilities both in our communities, at work, and federally.

The United States hates mothers. At least, their woefully inadequate policies, like no federally mandated paid parental leave, lack of access to affordable childcare, and increased criminalization of women’s health care and reproductive rights, seem to suggest so. It’s no wonder that many who (or hope to) enter parenthood feel completely abandoned by society and often have to make increasingly difficult decisions about how they’ll even be able to manage having a child in the first place. We’re tackling this subject head-on with Emily Tisch Sussman –– the author of the viral article “Motherhood Killed My Career” and podcast host of the She Pivots podcast. Emily joins Tori to talk about her own experience becoming a mother while working on high-profile political campaigns, how she pivoted her career as a result, and what she’s learned as an advocate for progressive policies for families.

Entrepreneurship is more popular than ever –– both because of accessibility but also the necessity to make more, whether that’s by adding a side hustle onto your full-time job or building out a business that allows you to have more control over your earnings. Often, women report feeling anxiety around starting a small business, and many start but pre-emotively give up just before it gets good. To talk more about the mental blocks that might be stopping you from giving that business idea a shot, host Tori Dunlap is joined by Amy Porterfield, who shares how she left a blossoming corporate career to work for herself and the mistakes and wins she made along the way.
