We all like to think we’re making smart money decisions… but half the time it’s actually our unconscious brain calling the shots.

The result? Accidental self-sabotage, money guilt, and financial myths that keep us stuck.

In this episode of Making Cents, Frances Cook is joined by financial coach and commentator Amanda Morrall to bust the biggest money myths holding people back, and show how to break free.

We dig into:

Why money is 90% mindset and only 10% mechanics
How consumerism tricks us into “filling a void” instead of fixing problems
The common belief of “I’m just not a money person”, and why it’s false
Simple mindset shifts that unlock real financial progress
How to align your money with your values (without the guilt)

If you’ve ever felt like you’re bad with money, this episode will help you spot the hidden stories running the show, and make small, lasting changes that actually move you forward.

Hit play to learn how to stop sabotaging your finances, ditch the myths, and start building the money life you actually want.
