Debt Doesn’t Get First Claim on Your Money

by | Sep 25, 2026 | Podcast

What if building substantial savings didn’t have to wait until your debt was gone?

Debt does not get first claim on every extra dollar you create. You get to pay off debt and become a woman who accumulates substantial savings.

In this episode, I’m busting four beliefs about saving that can keep your savings far smaller than you want it to be. I’m also sharing how I went from $3,000 saved to $1 million in cash savings, and why the amount sitting in your account today says nothing about what you’re capable of having saved in the future.

If you want substantially more money sitting fabulously in your savings account, this episode is for you.

In this episode, I talk about:

  • Why waiting to earn more can keep you waiting forever to start saving.
  • What to do when “something always comes up”.
  • The belief that having “too much” cash sitting in savings is wasteful.
  • How even being “a saver” can keep you maintaining a familiar number instead of increasing your balance.
  • Why debt and substantial savings get to exist in your money story at the same time.
  • The four questions that reveal the beliefs influencing how much you allow yourself to save.
