May 18, 202200:25:11Tap to summarizeKristine welcomes guest Elena Bell who shares how she drastically reduced her expenses and saved her house.

AB 18: COURTNEY – How she committed to a new relationship with money and quadrupled her annual income.
Mar 23, 202200:26:38Tap to summarizeKristine welcomes guest Courtney Shane who shares her inspirational story of shifting from someone with a "starving artist" mentality to someone who lifted herself up and into a six-figure support job that provides her with a new sense of financial and creative freedom. And she most definitely is creative; she's an actor, dancer, voice over artist, clown (as in: trained by Cirque du Soleil), producer, director, content creator... and now, coder. Her financial transformation started with some odds definitely stacked against her and her husband. Not only did they have to learn how to have a more empowered relationship with money and put some new habits and structures in place, but they also had to unlearn their old – and distinctly different – money stories. Because even though Courtney quadrupling her annual income was a positive shift in their lives, it was something they each had to adjust to.

Feb 23, 202200:23:27Tap to summarizeKristine welcomes guest Liza Fernandez who shares the candid story of the moment the "Cinderella bubble" that she had been living in popped and she was confronted with the harsh truth of her financial situation.

And although she had been relying on the kindness of a few Prince Charmings throughout her life, this is the tale of how she became her own hero and saved herself. No matter how painful some of the lessons were, she committed to learning how to stand on her own two feet and learning how to show up as a mature and equal partner in a relationship (even when her income was much less than his).

AB 14: RUTHY – How she embraced a community and created multiple streams of income.
Jan 26, 202200:28:44Tap to summarizeKristine welcomes guest Ruthy Otero who shares how she grew beyond her initial shame around not knowing what she "thought she should know" about money to becoming one of the first Abundance Bound course facilitators for the Financial Empowerment Program As it is for so many of us, Ruthy's family of origin wasn't able to offer much in the way of solid financial guidance – especially in relation to her life as an artist and non-traditional earner. So she chose to seek out a community that understands the challenges of having income that fluctuates and that provides a space where it feels safe to be a beginner without any judgement. Working at Abundance Bound became an additional source of income for Ruthy, as did the little side biz that she started shortly after the pandemic began. Over time, her relationship with money matured into one filled with much more clarity, intimacy, and kindness. Full show notes and more info here: https://abundancebound.com/the-podcast/
