Free video workshop up now! Financial Life Design Free video workshop up now! Financial Life Design for Crisis Times. Here is 1 of two excerpts. If you’re tired from all the changes happening around you or wishing you could figure out a financial task to focus on, try hacking your brain to help you be better with your money! In this 35 minute guided workshop, learn Financial Life Design for Crisis Times. You’ll learn how to use behavioral science and design thinking to pre-make decisions, reduce cognitive load, and help yourself be, do, and feel better in these mind-melting times. We do a exercise, so this mini workshop comes with a worksheet: https://bit.ly/FF-design. This workshop premiered in May at the virtual Financial Freedom summit, where we all hope to be in person someday...though sadly not this year. Behavioral economics meets life design, during coronavirus. This workshop is my gift to you, dear readers, because it really has been a long year -- and it’s only the beginning of August.
Financial Life Design for Crisis Times Using Desig Financial Life Design for Crisis Times Using Design Thinking on Your Money Problems in Corona Which issue do I tackle first? How do I make sense of this todo list? What if everything has changed for me? What if it all changes again? There’s no easy answers to strategic questions, but you CAN still make a plan and take a next step towards it. That’s why I’m sharing a free video workshop on how to use design thinking to help yourself make financial decisions, to ease some of the mental load so many folks have right now -- details below. Find it at https://bit.ly/FF-design my blog or stay tuned for excerpts on this ig account This image is a still from the workshop: a virtual canvas with bright blue, yellow and pink square sticky notes a picture of me, and and me, diva hustler with pink lipstick sitting in front of a green background.

America be like: Need a place to live? Buy a sing America be like: Need a place to live? Buy a single-family house and put just part of your family in it. Need to deal with a difficult situation? Call a cop to police it for you. Need money? Get out there champ, and fight by yourself, for yourself - dog eat dog! 🤦Yikes. 😬 Remember back when we had mass labor movements, collective bargaining was a way for workers to advocate for better pay for *everyone.* Sharing salaries and what you charge with your friends and colleagues, and advocating / deciding together is one way we can do that, now.
The more we learn about the gender and racial wage The more we learn about the gender and racial wage gaps, the clearer it is that salary transparency and sharing is a critical tool in today’s collective advocacy to equalize pay. My article this week takes that idea and builds it out further with earnings data, asking you to think about what it means to be the boss, the rain-maker, or on the team deciding how to divvy up money. Why? Because solving this together is more effective and far-reaching than solving it alone. Certainly getting that raise or learning to charge enough so you to have enough money to make good choices is good - and I want you do to that - but I also want you to lift as you climb.
Our liberation is bound up together, to paraphrase Our liberation is bound up together, to paraphrase Lilla Watson an Indigenous Australian / Murri artist. You personally can and are allowed to work to heal your relationship to money, untangle your desires from capitalism, and earn, make, and manage enough money to thrive. But stopping there is as shallow and shortsighted as the American dream. You can dream bigger: What if we all got out of debt and the visa/mc cartel was defunded and we out that money into our art projects, friend families' businesses and #communities instead? What if #publicbudgets paid for more helpers and less harm? What if more #landtrusts, #coop businesses, and shared infrastructure made it possible for more of us to work less...and live more? There are so many things we can try, that start by getting #fearlessmoney and getting your #debt, #earning, and #spending right - but don't stop there. The real #motivation for handling your money is here. What is in your #imagination that you want to see?
