I love having podcast guests who I’ve actually met, in real life!! Jennifer has gone through losing her 9-5 job and dealing with rheumatoid arthritis, she came through it using her passions for poetry and fashion, to build an empire!

We spoke about how so often the world is more suited to extroverts, and what it means to finally be ok with being an introvert and actually see it as a gift.

I love this quote

“It’s ok to feel good, it’s ok to ask for help, it’s ok to be supported and happy”.

Something we could all do with remembering!

And look who’s lucky enough to already have one of Jennifer’s t-shirts…!

I do two episodes every week, one solo and one interview.

I also have the fantastic Mastering Money Matters group, a monthly membership group where you can join and we talk about all the different pieces week by week of getting our money systems set up and how we look at, think about and value money and all areas of our lives.

It’s a very supportive and private group just for women and it’s a safe place to hang out and talk. It’s kind of the extension of the interviews I’ve been doing with mainly entrepreneurs on this show, and it’s where we can talk about the things we may not want to broadcast out to a broader audience.

As usual my guests give you their best advice about finance and business.

Haley’s Tips:

  • Figure out what your preferred mode of engagement is – online, offline, on the telephone?
  • Get clear on your numbers. Understand what comes in and goes out. Statements of cashflow, profit and loss and projections – all of that.
  • Figure out what makes sense to spend money and time on and what doesn’t

Financial Fluency Episode #39: Food, Feelings and Finances with Lisa Carpenter

/0 Comments/in /by

My guest this week is someone I have had great success in working with, so I’m thrilled to have her on the podcast today.

As well as talking all things food and feelings, we got down and dirty on the difference between what you see on the outside of someone’s business and what is ACTUALLY going on.

Lisa gave me a totally honest, good bad and the ugly look into her business. We both believe that the six figure launches aren’t always what they seem. And that it’s important to remember this if you’re in the first few years of business.

As usual, I asked my guest for tips and advice, both financial and in their niche…

Lisa’s 3 top tips for biz and life

  1. We all need coaches, make sure you pick one with the emotional capacity to guide you
  2. Sometimes you need to STOP looking for coaches and pay someone to do the things you aren’t good at
  3. If you’re struggling with your relationship with food and your body, if you don’t take responsibility for the food you eat – nothing will change. Pay attention to you.

You can get Lisa’s free 10 day challenge here.

Financial Fluency #39 - Food, Feelings and Finances with Lisa CarpenterFuelled by her passion for nutrition, Lisa has used her extensive background to develop the E.A.T! Program. She understands the deep connection between food and feelings, and that food can be a powerful drug. Working with thousands of clients internationally who were tired of feeling powerless over food, she has been able to give her clients a new freedom from the constraints of traditional dieting.

She specializes in taking the confusion out of food, dieting, and healthy eating so her clients can break free from the diet cycle. By building their knowledge and confidence, clients are empowered to take ownership of their food choices. They are able to develop a new mindset that is about conscious ownership of all food choices without negative self-judgment.

Her clients refer to her as a nutritional ninja and empowerment expert but the label she is most proud of is the mom to her family of 3 boys that range in age from a toddler to teenagers. Like many women, she strives for a balance between her busy family life and her passion for being an educator.
