“70% of the money stress that people experience comes from actually not knowing what’s happening with your money.”

If you’ve ever:

• Avoided looking at your bank account
• Felt anxious every time you spend
• Wondered where your money actually goes

You’re not alone—and according to this week’s guest, Scarlett Stanhope (The Biz Hippie), you’re not “bad with money.”

In this conversation, she breaks down what financial wellness really means—and how to bring simple spiritual practices into your financial life so you can start feeling more in control right now.

We talk about:

• Why money stress isn’t really about income
• The surprising way tracking your money creates freedom
• How your mindset shapes your financial reality
• Simple steps to feel more in control—starting today

Because as Scarlett says, “Clarity creates control—and control creates peace.”
