About Fun Money: Earn. Spend. Save. Invest. Have. Give.

What if money isn’t just something you manage, but a game you were never taught to win? Fun Money is the podcast for ambitious women who want more than just business success. Whether you’ve built a profitable company and feel secretly boxed in… or you’re wildly creative but still under-earning… this is where we stop playing by outdated rules and start building wealth that makes you even more of who you are. Hosted by Jessica McKinley Uyeno, Fun Money is your playbook for full-spectrum wealth: six distinct games - earning, spending, saving, investing, having, and giving - that aren’t about perfection, but flow. It’s about shifting from possibility to inevitability, learning to get a dopamine hit from saving as much as spending, and letting your business fund the bold, interesting life you’re meant to lead. Each week, Jess blends strategy with self-expression to help you unlearn tired money thinking, embrace “unhinged” beliefs, and become the Monopoly banker of your own life. Trigger warning: This is a next-level money conversation, taking you to a place that might feel uncomfortable. Expect powerful solo riffs, practical frameworks, and unfiltered conversations with the most interesting women in business… because the most lucrative path is usually the one that breaks the rules.
