Plenty with Kate Northrup

What if tuning in to what turns you on is one of the most powerful ways to access more money, confidence, and leadership in your life? In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with Genevieve LeJeune, founder and CEO of Skirt Club, a private international membership for bisexual and bi-curious women. Our conversation moves straight into territory most people avoid - pleasure, desire, power, money, and the courage it takes to invest in yourself when the world tells you not to. Genevieve shares how Skirt Club began as a small gathering in her London flat and grew into a global movement, why she created an alter ego to step into leadership, and what it actually looks like when women prioritize their own pleasure and agency - without apology. We talk about the cultural shame that has kept women disconnected from their desire, how giving yourself permission to want more changes the way you show up everywhere, and why women who take ownership of their pleasure often become clearer decision-makers, stronger leaders, and more powerful stewards of money. Genevieve also breaks down how Skirt Club events work, why privacy and discretion matter, and what she’s learned after witnessing thousands of women claim parts of themselves they were taught to hide. This episode is about more than sex. It’s about self-trust. It’s about choosing yourself before you have all the answers. And it’s about the quiet, radical truth that when women listen to their bodies and act on what they want, their money, confidence, and sense of power expand right along with them.

What would change for your family if the hardest conversations about money and death were already handled—clearly, lovingly, and without chaos? In this episode of Plenty, I’m sitting down with estate and legacy planning lawyer Amber Saunders for a conversation most people avoid—and pay for later. We talk about why avoiding conversations about death, money, and legacy doesn’t protect your family… it actually creates confusion, resentment, and heartbreak when it matters most. Amber shares a powerful personal story about how one simple decision her great-grandmother made ended up supporting three generations later—financially, emotionally, and practically—during a medical crisis no one could have predicted. This isn’t an episode about documents and paperwork (though we cover what you actually need, at every stage of life). It’s about legacy. It’s about values. It’s about making decisions now so the people you love aren’t left guessing later. In our conversation, we cover: withoutIf you care about your family, your future, and what happens to what you’ve built—this is a conversation to listen to before there’s a crisis. This episode is an invitation to lead with intention now, so the people you love can grieve, remember, and stay connected later.

What if the most profitable thing you could do this year isn’t another strategy - but learning how to create real connection? In this episode of Plenty, I’m inviting you into a conversation that challenges one of the most common assumptions in business and money: that control creates security. I share why control is often a stress response and how connection, not control, is what actually expands wealth. Not networking. Not transactional relationships. Real, human, heart-to-heart connection that opens new channels for opportunity, collaboration, and prosperity. I tell a pivotal story about how one meaningful relationship - formed without force or strategy - became a catalyst for millions in revenue and some of the most important friendships of my life. From there, I break down why money is inherently relational, why abundance moves through trust networks, and how the way we relate to people directly shapes the way resources flow to us. This is about shifting from “How do I make it happen?” to “How do I stay in right relationship with what’s happening?” In this episode, you’ll explore: If you make good money but still feel tense, isolated, or like you’re constantly bracing for the next shoe to drop - this episode will give you a new lens. One that leads to wealth that lasts, relationships that matter, and a life that actually feels full.

What if the reason your message isn’t landing - or your sales feel harder than they should - isn’t your strategy… but the sound of your voice? In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with the one-and-only Tracy Goodwin, founder of Captivate the Room, whose work completely changed how I understand communication, connection, and conversion. Tracy doesn’t teach “speaking tips.” She hears voices - literally - and she can identify microscopic sounds in your voice that can quietly repel trust, resonance, and income. According to her decades of research, those tiny sounds can cost you anywhere from 30–90% of your impact and revenue. In our conversation, we explore how the voice carries our nervous system history, our unhealed patterns, and the unconscious strategies we learned early in life to stay safe. Tracy breaks down the seven layers of the voice, including what she calls “voice masks” - the subtle ways we try to prove ourselves, sound professional, be liked, or avoid judgment. These masks don’t make us safer. They make us harder to trust. And then - very vulnerably - I let Tracy read my voice live on the podcast. What unfolds is part masterclass, part nervous-system truth telling, and part real-time healing. Tracy pinpoints where I’m working too hard to be understood, where old achievement patterns still leak into my tone, and why my true vocal superpower is actually fun, passion, and dimensionality - not over-precision or proving. Yes, I cry. And yes, it’s worth listening all the way through. We also talk about: If you’ve ever felt like you’re saying all the “right” things but still not being fully received… If you’ve built success but sense there’s more ease, truth, and power available… If you want your voice to accurately represent who you really are - This episode will change how you show up everywhere.

What if the abundance you’ve been working so hard to create is already here - just waiting for you to ask for it? In this episode of Plenty, I’m sharing one of the most overlooked - and most efficient - ways to unlock prosperity, support, and resources: asking. So many of us were conditioned to believe that being strong means doing everything alone. That wisdom lives in pushing harder, figuring it out in our heads, and proving our self-sufficiency. But that mindset is exactly what keeps abundance just out of reach. In this conversation, I walk you through a real-life example of how simply reaching out - raising your hand and saying “I need support” - can shift circumstances without force or struggle. I talk about why what you desire already exists, how scarcity is rooted in the illusion of separation, and why over-relying on intellect and rugged individualism actually shuts down creativity, clarity, and resource flow. You’ll hear why asking is not weakness - it’s strategy. It’s intelligence. It’s leadership. And it’s how prosperity actually moves. This episode will support you if: I’ll leave you with one powerful question that can change everything: What do you need help with right now - and who can you ask? Because abundance requires flow. And flow requires connection. XO, Kate “What we desire already exists. Abundance isn’t created from nothing - it’s accessed when we’re willing to ask.”-Kate Northrup 🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤 00:00 Introduction to Abundance 01:37 Manifesting and Abundance 04:04 The Importance of Asking for Help 09:01 The Dangers of Individualism 11:55 Reconnecting with Community and Source 14:14 Call to Action: Seeking Support Links and Resources: Money Breakthrough Guide ✨ Ready to create more on your wealth-building journey?

What if the life and business you worked so hard to build suddenly stopped feeling worth it - and you listened? In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with Natalie Ellis, founder of Boss Babe, for a real, behind-the-scenes conversation about what happens when success outpaces alignment - and how to rebuild everything around what actually matters. Natalie shares the moment that changed everything: sitting in a meeting while her six-month-old daughter cried in the next room, realizing her calendar, her business, and her nervous system were no longer livable. From that breaking point, she made radical decisions - stepping away, buying her business back, burning down misaligned offers, and rebuilding a company that prioritizes spaciousness, family, and well-being without sacrificing revenue. We talk about: This conversation is for you if you’ve built something impressive - but your body is asking for a different pace. If you want to grow in a way that feels sustainable, spacious, and deeply grounded. If you’re ready to stop organizing your life around urgency and start organizing it around what creates real freedom. This is not about having less ambition. It’s about doing business from safety, clarity, and choice.

What if the pressure to “start fresh” on January 1 isn’t motivating you because it was never designed for your body - or your prosperity - in the first place? In this episode of Plenty, I’m dismantling the myth of the New Year and offering a radically more sustainable way to begin again - one that doesn’t grind your gears, burn out your nervous system, or sabotage your income. January 1 is an arbitrary date created for economic standardization, not for human or ecological wellbeing. Yet so many ambitious, capable women push themselves to hit the ground running in the dead of winter - and then wonder why they’re exhausted by February. There’s nothing wrong with you. You’re responding intelligently to a system that’s out of sync with life itself. In this conversation, I walk you through why aligning exclusively with the Gregorian calendar quietly increases burnout, cortisol, and brittle business decisions - and how working with your biological and seasonal rhythms creates clarity, momentum, and more money with less effort. We explore the difference between linear, transactional time and the kind of timeless presence where your best decisions, creativity, and magnetism actually live. I also share a practical, body-based map for structuring your year around real rhythm - composting and clarity in winter, emergence in spring, visibility in summer, and harvest in fall - so your work is supported by nature instead of fighting it. This is the same approach my company used to eliminate 90% of our offers, double down on what actually worked, and create our biggest revenue years with fewer promotions and far less strain. If you’ve ever felt behind at the start of a year, this episode will reset your relationship with time itself - and show you how a regulated nervous system becomes one of your most powerful financial assets. In this episode, you’ll learn: This is an invitation to stop chasing artificial beginnings and start living inside cyclical momentum - where your energy, creativity, and income compound naturally. “A regulated nervous system makes better financial decisions. Less impulsive spending. Clearer pricing. More trust in timing.”–Kate Northrup 🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤 00:00 Introduction to Abundance and Energy 00:38 The Pressure of New Beginnings 02:24 Reclaiming Time and Energy 03:50 Historical Perspectives on Time 05:00 The Economics of Time 13:09 The Power of Seasonal Alignment 18:22 Aligning with Nature for Prosperity 21:00 Emergence and Action 24:55 Reflection and Celebration Links and Resources: Do Less Heal the Way You Work Relaxed Money ✨ Heal the Way You Work: Build a Spacious, Profitable Business - Without Working More Working harder doesn’t create sustainable success… but this does.

Have you ever wondered if money isn’t just a resource…but a living consciousness you’re already in relationship with? In this week’s episode of Plenty, I sit down with The Money Shaman, Ry Schwartz, for one of the most paradigm-shifting conversations I’ve ever had about money, healing, and the unseen forces that shape our financial lives. Ry and I explore money not as something we “manage,” fix, or master — but as a fluid, evolving consciousness that responds to our awareness, our compassion, and our willingness to be in genuine relationship with it. We talk about why shadow money work often feels so relieving, how different “streams” of money carry different energetic signatures, why some dollars feel light and others feel heavy, and how we can become stewards who help money heal as it moves through our lives. We also dive into… ✨ What it means to let money find you even when you feel messy or imperfect ✨ How money takes on the energetic imprint of the intentions and emotions it passes through ✨ Simple daily practices to “witness” your money so it can relax and reorganize ✨ Why avoidance around money is rarely laziness — and what it’s usually protecting you from ✨ The connection between intimacy, generosity, and increased financial receptivity ✨ How couples can co-create a shared field that expands both pleasure and prosperity This conversation is tender, revelatory, and wildly practical. Ry offers a new way of relating to money that brings more safety into your system, more flow into your life, and more grace into every financial exchange. If you’re craving a relationship with money that feels warm, conscious, and regenerative — this episode is for you. “Not all money is the same.

Have you ever wondered why money feels so much more spacious when you make one aligned decision instead of a thousand tiny ones every day? In this week’s episode of Plenty, I’m diving deep into one of the most overlooked pathways to relaxed wealth: financial boundaries. Not the rigid, budget-heavy kind that feel like punishment… but the kind that act like the riverbanks that keep your financial flow clear, directed, and easeful. I share how boundaries — financial and energetic — create more safety in your nervous system, more trust in your decisions, and more alignment between where your money goes and what truly matters to you. We explore: 🌿 Why decision fatigue drains not only your energy but your money 🌿 How to know (in your body) when something is a financial yes or no 🌿 The connection between your human design authority and aligned money choices 🌿 Real examples of my own financial boundaries, from client agreements to household spending 🌿 Why saying “no” to the misaligned is actually saying a deeper “yes” to yourself You’ll also hear simple ways to start practicing aligned yeses and embodied noes in tiny, everyday moments — which makes the bigger financial choices so much clearer. And I walk you through how to begin crafting the kinds of abundance agreements we use inside Relaxed Money so your money can flow where it’s meant to, without leaking into places that don’t nourish you. If you’ve ever felt like money decisions take more energy than you want to give… or you know your spending and earning could feel more regenerative and grounded… this episode will feel like an exhale.

Have you ever realized that the identity you’ve built—the one that’s kept everything running—might also be the very thing keeping you from your next becoming? In this week’s episode of Plenty, I get to sit down with someone who has witnessed me through many of my own becomings: my longtime friend and former coach, Chela Davison. Our conversation is an intimate, funny, deeply human exploration of midlife unraveling as an initiation into deeper truth, creative recovery, and a fuller expression of self. Chela and I trace the arc of her journey from being the hyper-capable, endlessly resilient woman who could “make anything happen,” to the moment her internal generator finally sputtered out—and how that collapse ushered her into a two-year wintering season that ultimately birthed her acclaimed one-woman show, A Little Bit Much. We talk about the illusion of the breadwinner, the stories we project onto our partnerships, and the internalized cultural narratives that quietly shape our sense of worth. We also explore what it means to be “a little bit much” in a world that often prefers women palatable and contained—how to preserve our aliveness without overwhelming ourselves or others, and how to move from performative productivity into regenerative creativity. Chela’s story is a living example of following the energy, listening for what wants to be created, and allowing art to heal the artist first. This episode is full of laughter, truth telling, permission, and the kind of midlife wisdom that only comes from letting something fall apart so something truer can emerge. I can’t wait for you to listen. In this episode you’ll discover: ✨ Over-identifying with resilience led to burnout ✨ Creative recovery came from stepping back and slowing down ✨ Challenging and redefining breadwinner narratives ✨ Embracing being “a little bit much” as strength ✨ Creative growth comes from staying with the process “I looked around and asked myself, ‘Who am I willing to disappoint to get my life back?’ And the first person I realized I was willing to disappoint… was me.” — Chela Davidson 🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤 00:00 – Introduction to Resilience & Identity 00:26 – Guest Background & Creative Recovery 03:00 – Turning 40, Maturity & Evolving Identity 05:12 – Childhood Messaging & Self-Perception 07:35 – Career Success, Challenges & Vulnerability 09:13 – Burnout, Loss & Identity Crisis 11:51 – Reclaiming Creative Life Force 13:07 – Resentment, Breadwinning & Gender Expectations 16:21 – Healing Through Vulnerability & Relationship Dynamics 19:17 – The Influence of Patriarchy & Processing Resentment 21:25 – Creative Recovery, New Projects & Self-Discovery 27:22 – Vulnerability in Creative Processes & Community 38:19 – Social Media, Creative Resistance & Staying With the Work 44:18 – Art, Healing & Creative Integrity 50:42 – The Journey of Art, Commerce & Creative Community 54:49 – Closing Thoughts & Resources Links and Resources: Free Money Breakthrough Guide Connect with Chela Davison: Website Wizdotainment A Little Bit Much Instagram ✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You Make Rewire your nervous system for wealth, stop the money-in/money-out cycle, and create sustainable abundance.

Have you ever made more money… only to find yourself overspending, shrinking back, or feeling anxious instead of abundant? If so, you’re not alone — and there’s nothing wrong with you. In this episode, I explore one of the most important — and most misunderstood — pieces of financial growth: your money nervous system thermostat. We often think that earning more should feel good, natural, or easy. But the truth is, if a part of your body doesn’t feel safe with more, it will unconsciously pull you back to what’s familiar, even if what’s familiar is financial stress, inconsistency, or sabotage. I share: ✨ Why lifestyle inflation, overspending, or freezing with money isn’t a lack of discipline — it’s a nervous system response. ✨ How our childhood environment (not just money memories) sets our internal “thermostat” for how much abundance feels safe. ✨ The science behind why expansion often triggers threat responses like guilt, fear, or shame — even when something good is happening. ✨ Powerful, practical tools to build your capacity to earn more and keep more, including nervous system healing practices and co-regulation in community. I also share personal stories — including the moment Louise Hay offered me my first book deal and why my immediate response was a shame spiral rather than celebration. This is such a potent example of how expansion can overwhelm our body if we haven’t updated our internal capacity to receive more. You’ll walk away understanding: 🌿 Why financial strategy can’t stick without nervous system safety 🌿 How to start signaling “you are safe” during both contraction and expansion 🌿 The key questions to ask your body to uncover the stories and sensations running the show 🌿 How safe community accelerates your capacity to hold more wealth with ease and consistency This episode will help you stop the patterns that have kept you cycling between making more and losing it — and instead begin to create a nervous system that can hold, grow, and enjoy wealth. When you practice feeling safe with more, more becomes normal.

What if your business was a temple? In this week’s episode, Kate talks with Asha Ramakrishna—priestess, molecular biologist, and author—about Sacred Commerce: an emergent framework bridging capitalism and consciousness.

What if dissolving shame is the missing step between you and real financial momentum? In this solo episode of Plenty, Kate unpacks the tight grip of debt shame and financial secrecy—and why hiding from the numbers stalls your progress far more than the numbers themselves. She reframes debt as “invoices for blessings already received” and makes the critical distinction between high-interest consumer debt and debt that makes you money (the positive “spread” when your return outpaces your interest). You’ll also hear why all-or-nothing thinking is a nervous-system red flag, and how telling someone safe is often the first step to clarity and action. We cover: releasing shame by bringing things into the light, building capacity to “do the math,” and seeing nuanced opportunities—so you can either dissolve unhelpful debt or strategically leverage it for wealth. Listen now to discover: ✨ Why shame halts financial progress—and how sharing it sets you free ✨ “Invoices for blessings already received” as a practical reframe for debt ✨ The difference between consumer debt and return-producing leverage (the spread) ✨ How dysregulation fuels avoidant money habits—and what to do instead ✨ A simple truth-telling step: tell someone safe and start looking at the numbers “I call debt invoices for blessings already received.” — Kate Northrup 🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤 00:00 Why debt shame keeps you stuck; welcoming honesty and light 00:27 Show intro: money, time, energy, and a life of plenty 01:27 Debt, secrecy, and why shame halts financial progress 02:22 Tell the truth (to someone safe); vulnerability has to be earned 03:12 Debt ≠ bad: using credit as a wealth-building tool when appropriate 04:09 Credit, solvency, and why “no credit” can limit leverage 06:03 “Invoices for blessings already received” (student loans, credit cards, mortgages) 06:40 Beware false binaries; nuance requires a regulated nervous system 07:12 The spread: borrowing at 4% to earn 100%—a positive use of debt 09:32 High-interest consumer debt vs. productive debt (don’t pay 20% APR) 11:05 Normalizing the month-to-month “float” in real businesses 13:48 From credit-card debt to 8-figure growth: dissolving shame to act 15:11 When fear blocks math: build capacity, then choose the smart move 16:22 Two actions: tell someone safe; start doing something about it 17:19 Seeing you may have been smarter than you thought (the numbers help) 18:19 Learn the lesson, integrate it, and change the pattern 19:36 Any past decision can become wealth once shame’s story is dropped Links and Resources: Brené Brown Relaxed Money ✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You Make Making more money doesn’t guarantee financial ease… but this will.

What if healing the masculine is the key to deeper love, better health, and a more peaceful world? In this powerful episode of Plenty, I sit down with Dr. Brad Jacobs, an integrative precision medicine doctor and thought leader who bridges Western science, Eastern wisdom, and emotional intelligence. Together, we explore what it really looks like to heal father wounds, move beyond toxic masculinity, and find balance between strength and softness—both within men and in our relationships with them. We talk about Brad’s personal journey from reactivity and anger to grounded emotional presence—a transformation that reshaped how he parents, partners, and practices medicine. You’ll hear how he learned to hold boundaries without shutting down, create safety without control, and embody a new model of masculine leadership rooted in awareness, humility, and heart. We also dive into how our emotional patterns influence our health, the importance of processing anger and stress through the body (not just the mind), and what happens when we offer ourselves—and our partners—compassion instead of judgment. Brad shares how practices like Hakomi therapy, mindfulness, and even simple breath awareness can help us release inherited emotional “sludge” and build resilience from the inside out. Whether you’re navigating your own relationship dynamics, raising emotionally intelligent kids, or simply curious about how to create more presence and connection in your life, this conversation offers both science and soul. Together, we explore what it means to integrate—to honor the full spectrum of who we are—so that healing the masculine becomes part of healing all of us. 💛 Listen now to discover: ✨ What “healing the masculine” really means and how it impacts your relationships ✨ The link between emotional regulation, nervous system health, and longevity ✨ Simple practices to help you pause reactivity and return to grounded presence ✨ How to support the men you love in reconnecting to their emotional selves “I realized I don’t have to match someone else’s emotional storm.

Have you ever felt like you’ve done everything right—all the mindset work, all the strategy, all the “manifestation” tools—and yet, your life still isn’t matching what you desire? I know how frustrating that can feel. In this episode, I’m diving deep into the hidden reasons why your outer world might not be shifting, even though you’ve been showing up and doing the work. I walk you through three often-overlooked layers that can keep us stuck in repeating patterns—and how to gently start releasing them so you can finally experience real change: 💫 Nervous system repatterning: How our bodies can unconsciously “reset” us back to old comfort zones, and why feeling safe in expansion is key to sustaining success. 💫 Secondary gain: The subtle ways we might benefit from not getting what we want (and how to lovingly explore those patterns without shame). 💫 Radical approval: Why disapproving of “what is” keeps us trapped—and how genuine acceptance can become the fastest way to create the life you’ve been longing for. You’ll leave this conversation feeling grounded, supported, and equipped with practical tools you can use today—like my favorite simple nervous system exercise that can help you shift your energy in under a minute. Because the truth is, the moment you stop waiting for life to be perfect and start approving of what is, you’ve already changed everything. 🌿 🎧 Tune in now, and let’s explore how to align your body, mind, and energy with the abundance that’s already within reach. 👉 katenorthrup.com/reset — Download The Money Reset, my free guided experience to rewire your nervous system for wealth and calm your relationship with money. “The fastest way to get what you want is to approve of the way things are right now.”–Kate Northrup 🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤 00:00 Introduction to Abundance and Life's Finite Nature 00:37 Frustrations in Personal Growth and Change 01:06 Understanding Secondary Gain in Personal Experiences 02:20 Neural Patterning and Its Impact on Health 08:04 Exploring Financial Avoidance and Secondary Gain 10:10 Fear of Success and Its Implications 12:26 The Importance of Approval in Life 14:29 Transforming Disapproval into Approval 19:30 Key Takeaways for Personal Transformation Links and Resources: Mama Gena Loving What Is, By Byron Katie What if you could witness a story as it’s being born — before it’s polished, before it’s perfect, before the world sees it?

What if the key to thriving wasn’t more grit—but sacred rest, radical honesty, and self-permission? This week on Plenty, I sat down with the luminous Amanda Goetz—founder, author of Toxic Grit, and single mama of three—to talk about healing from hustle culture without losing your ambition or your edge. Amanda and I dove deep into the cycles of burnout and rebirth so many of us experience as high-achieving women: how to rebuild after identity-shaking seasons, how to release toxic productivity patterns, and how to create boundaries that honor every version of who we are—CEO, mother, partner, sensual being, and everything in between. She shares her refreshing concept of the 10 characters within us and how learning to let them take turns in the spotlight can transform our relationship with work, motherhood, and self-worth. We also explored what it means to practice “hustle with intention,” reclaim pleasure and sexuality as sacred sources of power, and build a life that feels abundant—not just busy. If you’ve ever felt torn between your ambition and your well-being, or wondered how to pursue success without losing yourself, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale. ✨ In this episode, you’ll learn: expandThis is one of those episodes you’ll want to revisit when you need a reminder that it’s safe to slow down, to shift, and to redefine what “having it all” truly means.

Have you ever noticed how setting a goal with a deadline can sometimes make you feel more anxious than inspired? In this episode, I share a personal story about how I realized that my attachment to time-bound goals was actually creating stress, scarcity, and disconnection from the very abundance I teach and strive to live by. During one of our biggest program enrollments, I experienced a powerful shift: instead of tracking numbers and pushing for results, I decided to remove the “T” from my SMART goals—the “time-bound” part. The moment I released the false urgency and pressure of having to meet a goal by a specific date, something extraordinary happened. I felt lighter, more creative, and deeply connected to Source again. I talk about: ✨ How time-bound goals can trigger scarcity and stress rather than motivation. ✨ The difference between “relevant” goals and what I now call resonant goals—those that feel aligned with your heart and purpose. ✨ The practice that helped me detach from outcomes and stay rooted in service, joy, and flow. ✨ Why focusing on the journey, rather than the destination, is where true fulfillment—and sustainable success—lives. By removing the timeline, I opened myself to infinite possibilities—and ironically, it turned out to be our most successful launch ever. But the real win wasn’t in the numbers—it was in how it felt: spacious, peaceful, and abundant. So if your goals have been feeling heavy or pressured, this episode will invite you to loosen your grip, release the clock, and reconnect to what truly matters. When you stop forcing outcomes on a schedule, you make space for magic. Listen in, and let’s explore what happens when you take off the “T.” “When I have an idea that a goal has to be achieved in a certain amount of time, it creates stress and scarcity in my body. When I remove the timeline, I return to abundance.”–Kate Northrup 🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤 00:00 Introduction to Abundance 00:35 The Concept of Goal Setting 03:37 Challenges with Time-Bound Goals 09:11 Removing False Urgency 11:16 The Journey vs. the Destination 13:10 Conclusion and Invitation to Change ✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You Make Making more money doesn’t guarantee financial ease… but this will.

✨ Have you ever wondered what happens when being the breadwinner, burning out, and finding your feminine again all collide? In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with the incredible Monica Yates — author, podcast host, and unapologetic voice on money, relationships, and feminine energy. Monica and I share an unusual common thread: our journeys both began with learning about the menstrual cycle and eventually led us into nervous system healing. From there, we dive deep into what it really means to let go, receive, and redefine power as women in today’s world. Monica opens up about her personal experience of losing and regaining her period, stepping into her feminine through unexpected ways, and learning to soften while still holding the role of breadwinner. We talk about the tension so many of us feel between craving control for “safety” and the deeper truth that real safety comes through trust and surrender. We also explore: Monica’s story is refreshingly honest, playful, and deeply validating. Whether you’re navigating being the financial provider, healing your relationship with money, or simply longing to put down the reins sometimes, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are and invite you into a new way of relating — with yourself, your partner, and your resources. I loved every moment of this conversation with Monica and I can’t wait for you to hear it. 👉 Tune in, let your shoulders drop, and allow yourself to receive the wisdom here. “The need to control is an illusion of safety.

Have you ever found yourself on your abundance journey—doing the inner work, healing your relationship with money, and leaning into prosperity—only to feel pulled back into scarcity because the people around you aren’t on the same path? If so, you’re not alone. This episode of Plenty was inspired by a listener who asked: “What do I do when my family, friends, or community are still operating in lack, while I’m working so hard to step into abundance?” I know how challenging it can feel when the people you love aren’t aligned with your vision of “more than enough.” That’s why in this episode, I share three powerful practices to help you protect your energy, stand firmly in your truth, and continue expanding into abundance—without cutting people out of your life or downplaying your growth. You’ll learn: ✨ Why who you spend time with deeply impacts your prosperity (and how to gently shift your circles if needed) ✨ How to recognize and release the “belonging tax”—that tendency to downplay your success so you don’t outshine loved ones ✨ Why your expansion isn’t selfish, but instead makes space for others to rise ✨ How to lovingly hold boundaries when others project scarcity onto you This conversation is about more than money—it’s about honoring your own path while inviting others into their own growth, in their own timing. You’ll walk away with tools to stay rooted in abundance while still being in relationship with those you care about. 💛 “When we expand—whether it’s in our healing, our earning, or our education—we’re not leaving people behind. We’re changing things for our entire lineage.” –Kate Northrup 🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤 00:00 Introduction to Abundance Journey 00:33 Energy Management and Scarcity 02:20 Navigating Relationships in Scarcity 05:49 Choosing Positive Interactions 07:48 The Belonging Tax 11:58 Celebrating Success Without Guilt 15:05 Encouraging Others' Growth 17:26 Setting Boundaries in Relationships 19:37 Conclusion and Personal Focus ✨ Ready to stop overthinking money and start feeling your way to true wealth? ✨ If traditional financial strategies have left you feeling disconnected—especially as a sensitive, intuitive, or creative person—you're not alone.

What does it really mean to heal as women—in our bodies, minds, and spirits? For too long, women have been told to push through exhaustion, overfunction at every turn, and manage "all the things" while our own vitality suffers. But what if true healing isn't about doing more? What if it's about reclaiming nervous system regulation, honoring our hormonal rhythms, embracing pleasure as medicine, and living from authentic wholeness? In this transformative episode of Plenty, I spent an entire day in deep conversation with Dr. Sara Gottfried, a pioneering women's health physician, hormone expert, and bestselling author. Together, we explored the complex realities of women's health today—from navigating a medical system that often dismisses women's experiences to supporting ourselves through major transitions like perimenopause and menopause. This conversation touches the core of everything we explore in this community: how nervous system balance, embodied pleasure, and true vitality become the foundation for not just surviving, but thriving as women. What You'll Discover in This Episode Women's Health & Medical Advocacy: Hormones, Fertility & Life Transitions: Nervous System & Embodied Living: Money, Safety & Women's Bodies: Dr. Sara's wisdom, combined with her generous spirit and clinical expertise, creates a conversation that feels both deeply personal and universally relevant.
