What would your life look like if you felt powerful around money instead of anxious or unsure?
In this episode, personal finance expert Farnoosh Torabi joins Tamsen for an honest conversation about what’s really holding women back from financial confidence.
They talk about the fear so many of us carry: fear of not knowing enough, fear of losing control, fear of starting too late and how to move through it. Farnoosh shares the mindset shifts and real-world tools that help women build independence. She’s teaching us how to negotiate your worth, create safety nets that last, and invest with clarity instead of fear.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
-The quiet fears that shape how women handle money
-How to ask for more and actually get it
-The simple systems that protect your financial future
-What rebuilding after debt or divorce really looks like
-How to feel calm and in control when it comes to money
