22: The System for Guilt-Free Business Spending with Michelle Taylor

The System for Everything

If you've ever hovered over the "Buy Now" button with a pit in your stomach and a credit card in hand, this episode is for you. In this episode, I sat down with my personal financial advisor, Michelle Taylor who founded Women in Wealth, to talk about the messy, emotional side of business spending.

From $997 unopened courses to aspirational hires we’re not ready for, we unpack how to tell the difference between a smart investment and a comparison-fueled expense. Michelle brings over a decade of experience in wealth management and shares both tough love and practical systems for spending with confidence, not guilt.

Less spooky, more smart. Because peace of mind is the ultimate productivity tool.
