What Happens During a Market Crash (And What You Should Do)

If you’ve ever checked your portfolio during a dip and thought “should I pull out?”, this one’s for you. Spoiler: You don’t lose money in a crash — you lose it when you panic.

The Psychology of Spending (And Why We Buy Stuff We Don’t Need)
You know you don’t need that $7 latte or the third jacket in the same color — so why do you keep buying it? In this episode, we dive into the emotional side of money, inspired by the work of Morgan Housel. You’ll learn why spending is rarely about logic, how your childhood shaped your money habits, and how ego and insecurity quietly drive a lot of your financial decisions. This one’s not about budgeting apps — it’s about your brain, your story, and how to finally feel in control of your money.
