On this final episode of Season 1, Sarah and Georgia discuss why we overspend and how we can stop overspending and get out of cycles of debt.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Georgia passed her STEP exam in trusts and estates. An amazing achievement!

Money is emotive. We tend to overspend when we are in an emotional state such as stressed, sad, lonely or even happy. Spending often helps us feel good about ourselves, even if it’s just in that moment.

Many of us relate our self-worth to our net-worth. We need to separate money from who we are. Having more money doesn’t make you a better person or a worse person.

Consumerism drives our spending habits.

You need to bring awareness to the triggers that cause you to overspend.

Always consider your future self.

Create new habits that create a similar emotion.

Don’t beat yourself up if you slip up – you’re only human. We all slip up now and then.

Keep going in the right direction. Don't give up and have faith in yourself. Every time you decide not to make a purchase or save a little each month, you are building a new identity for yourself. Small steps in the right direction will result in huge changes over time.
