Video Description

In today's video I'm sharing 10 ways I healed my toxic relationship with money. For a lot of my adult life, I was in over $120,000 student debt, I was a compulsive shopaholic, a hoarder, and I frequently turned to spending as my coping mechanism of choice. I started my debt free journey in 2019, but along the way I had to learn to address the relationships and assumptions I always had about money. I found out mine were where highly rooted in scarcity, guilt and an overall lack of trust and confidence in myself. Today I'm 100% debt free, I've got a much healthier relationship with my stuff and my shopping, and I'm learning to heal my guilty relationship to money. Here's 10 things that helped me do that. I hope it helps you if you feel the same or are in a similar situation. #debtfreejourney #moneymindsets #healingjourney I Will Teach You To Be Rich book https://amzn.to/3LZFcHc Dopamine Nation book https://amzn.to/41hME4F Budgeting tools to try https://www.iwillteachyoutoberich.com/c-conscious-spending-plan/ (free) https://www.ramseysolutions.com/ramseyplus/everydollar (free and paid - I use the free one) https://www.ynab.com/ (paid, but excellent) πŸ‘–I get all my vintage denim here! πŸ’˜ https://bit.ly/43NsxOm ✨jewelry is Mejuri https://mejurifinecrew.sjv.io/vnQvrL & Pamela Card (Christina10 to save) https://bit.ly/3lqBkV2 🎧 listen & rate our new podcast Sustain This! with @UseLess_dk and @AlyssaBeltempo Now on Spotify https://spoti.fi/3NQCcyl and Apple podcasts https://apple.co/3M3zN1C πŸ₯³ FREE Find Your Style Uniform Notion Template HERE ➑️ https://view.flodesk.com/pages/635dc3a5647f997fb25c8919 πŸ“¦ FREE decluttering checklist ➑️ https://view.flodesk.com/pages/6298038b513edb17a2c41f0f WATCH FOR MORE πŸ‘€ How to find your style WITHOUT shopping https://youtu.be/5j5jhvZl9G0 Who makes the BEST white t-shirt? https://youtu.be/1RjnFVBT93Y How to be an outfit repeater without getting bored https://youtu.be/dRgTjy97wAA Life-changing habits to improve your style https://youtu.be/D7HdmIClXrI πŸ› Low Buy Beauties Shopping Support Group http://bit.ly/2R3AHxC πŸ“Έ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/christina.m... πŸ“± TikTok https://bit.ly/2WaELlQ πŸƒ Sign up for the FREE WEEKLY Minimalist-ish Newsletter here! https://view.flodesk.com/pages/62a35a... πŸ’Έ The Budgeting App I Use https://bit.ly/35SgX8G πŸ‘— FREE Wardrobe Tracking Spreadsheet https://bit.ly/3lPJ8eu πŸ’» The Minimalist-ish Website https://www.minimalist-ish.com/ For business inquires, contact: [email protected] Edited by D'Arci Phillips Codes & Discounts (if you want to)🀘🏻 🧺 TRU EARTH Eco Friendly Laundry Strips - save 10% with code CHRISTINA10 at checkout! https://bit.ly/41D6pVG πŸƒ ORGANIC BASICS - use code OBXSTYLE to save off 10% off your order https://bit.ly/3BahXSG πŸ‘œ SAMARA - cruelty-free minimalist bags & accessories (female-owned, from Toronto) get 10% off your first order with code CHRISTINA10 https://bit.ly/3kHWibA ✨ PAMELA CARD JEWELLERY - female-owned Canadian heirloom jewellery.
