Podcast Overview
<p>Welcome to <strong>Fiscally Challenged</strong>! This is the podcast that smashes the taboos around money with humanity, vulnerability, humour, and just the right amount of self-deprecation.</p><br><p>I’m CJ, your friendly fiscalphobe, and it’s high time that we unpack our complicated relationship with m-o-n-e-y. Think of this as group emotional fiscal therapy, because let’s be honest, most of us would rather talk about our bowel movements than our bank balance.</p><br><p>Ever feel like money is that toxic ex who breezes in and out of your life, leaving chaos in their wake? Yeah, me too. This is my journey to address the urgent need for financial literacy in a world where discussing money can feel more awkward than a first date.</p><br><p>Each week, I’ll chat with everyday people and experts from all walks of life to explore the psychology, anthropology, and sociology of money. We’ll unravel the complexities of our wallets, share our financial faux pas, and discover what really shapes our money mindsets.</p><br><p>Let’s get <strong>REAL</strong> about our collective money trauma and embark on a journey toward financial liberation - together. Buckle up for a journey where finances meet mental health, sprinkled with a generous dash of agony aunt wisdom.</p><br><p>So, are we just broke or <strong>Fiscally Challenged</strong>? </p><br><p><strong>Follow Fiscally Challenged on:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thefiscallychallenged?igsh=YWxzaTcwcGd5aDlv&utm_source=qr" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@fiscallychallenged?_t=8q1FoPHEtJh&_r=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMJNp0hERNO7BppWlFdjONw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Youtube</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/5sWt6PFHYmzE9ak6gO2MV7?si=1kH9a7EqTiaxEf5KF3H6JQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a> & <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/fiscally-challenged/id1738121299" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Meet Your Money Muse with Maria
<p>Hello & Welcome to Fiscally Challenged!</p><br><p>In this episode I sit down with sound healer and energy practitioner, Maria (she/her), to explore our energetic and emotional relationship with money. Maria shares how she rose from a crisis that left her homeless with nothing but the clothes on her back, to a life of true abundance. A profound inner awakening and a chance encounter with yin yoga kickstarted the transformation of her relationship with money by leaning heavily into gratitude, healing, and treating money as a friend.</p><br><p>From breaking free of ‘debt culture’, reframing deeply ingrained money beliefs, the healing power of positive money talk and the importance of balancing our masculine and feminine energies to create a more optimised money flow - Maria’s insights are as refreshing as they are challenging.</p><br><p>Maria will also guide us through a 10-minute meditation designed to connect us with our ‘money muse’ - a visualisation exercise to start a path toward awareness, forgiveness and healing. Tune in to learn how to reframe your money story to release guilt, reshape limiting beliefs, and cultivate gratitude.</p><br><p><strong>Follow <em>Fiscally Challenged </em>on:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thefiscallychallenged?igsh=YWxzaTcwcGd5aDlv&utm_source=qr" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@fiscallychallenged?_t=8q1FoPHEtJh&_r=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMJNp0hERNO7BppWlFdjONw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Youtube</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/5sWt6PFHYmzE9ak6gO2MV7?si=1kH9a7EqTiaxEf5KF3H6JQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a> & <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/fiscally-challenged/id1738121299" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

The Importance of Financial Literacy with Omari
<p>Hello and welcome back to the Fiscally Challenged pod!</p><br><p>Sitting in the chair today is Omari (he/him), an incredibly bright, frank and reflective human whose wisdom by far outweighs his age. Raised by a very inspiring mother, Omari learned the value of money and budgeting from a young age - giving up lunches to save for prized items as a kid. Omari shares his experience of growing up amongst the stark contrasts of wealth in London, and balancing his creative passions with his desire for stability.</p><br><p>Through candid reflections, Omari opens up about why his mother referred to him as an old man when he was a child, the influence of social media, the pressure to "keep up" financially and the impact of living paycheck to paycheck in a world that demands more than ever. We also discuss the systemic barriers that young people face today - from the mental health and morality decline to the generational uncertainty around home ownership and economic security.</p><br><p>The psychological impacts of financial anxiety are brought up to highlight that financial literacy isn’t just about money - it’s an essential tool that we all need to help build self-worth, confidence, resilience and the courage to redefine what “success” looks like. Omari bravely shares how he overcame his own challenges and shares the most important lessons he's learned.</p><br><p><strong>Follow <em>Fiscally Challenged </em>on:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thefiscallychallenged?igsh=YWxzaTcwcGd5aDlv&utm_source=qr" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@fiscallychallenged?_t=8q1FoPHEtJh&_r=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMJNp0hERNO7BppWlFdjONw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Youtube</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/5sWt6PFHYmzE9ak6gO2MV7?si=1kH9a7EqTiaxEf5KF3H6JQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a> & <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/fiscally-challenged/id1738121299" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Big Money vs. Strong Mindset with Morgan
<p>Welcome to The Fiscally Challenged pod!</p><br><p>I’m excited to introduce Morgan from Full Circle Finance, a mortgage brokerage specialising in helping people build their investment portfolios. Morgan launched his business in 2022 and has over 12 years of experience working in the space, but is also a seasoned property investor who owned five properties by the age of 28.</p><br><p>Morgan is here to share why developing a strong financial mindset is more impactful than a big paycheck. We talk about his journey from childhood to now, how money was discussed and treated at home, the personal sacrifices he had to make along the way and why he’s so passionate about helping others reach their financial goals.</p><br><p>If you think that this conversation is reserved for high-income earners or those with massive bank accounts, think again! While his clientele boasts a high net-worth client with over 62 properties under his belt, Morgan says that most of his clients are just "average everyday people" - bus drivers included. Click play for Morgan's advice on strategies that will help you harness your mindset and build towards financial freedom, whether you’re just starting or ready to level up.</p><br><p><strong>Hit the FOLLOW and the notification buttons to be the first to know when a new episode drops every Thursday, and follow <em>Fiscally Challenged </em>on:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thefiscallychallenged?igsh=YWxzaTcwcGd5aDlv&utm_source=qr" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@fiscallychallenged?_t=8q1FoPHEtJh&_r=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMJNp0hERNO7BppWlFdjONw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Youtube</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/5sWt6PFHYmzE9ak6gO2MV7?si=1kH9a7EqTiaxEf5KF3H6JQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a> & <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/fiscally-challenged/id1738121299" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
