Tired of being told to stop buying lattes in order to build wealth? Us too. In this episode, Tracy Coenen sits down with Shari Rash, financial advisor, podcast host, and creator of the Everyone’s Talkin’ Money Club, for a real conversation about money, relationships, and ditching outdated financial advice that doesn’t speak to women.
Shari believes women don’t need lectures or judgment about their spending. What we need is a strategy that fits real life. Whether you’re the primary breadwinner, a stay-at-home mom, or somewhere in between, Shari’s approach helps you understand your money without shame and take smart steps toward financial independence.
This episode is packed with practical, relatable advice to help you stop feeling behind and start feeling in control.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
💡 Why traditional budgeting fails and what actually works
💡 How to create a “spending strategy” instead of depriving yourself
💡 Why values-based budgeting helps you align your money with your life
💡 How to talk to your partner about finances… without the fight
💡 Smart ways to protect yourself financially in relationships and marriage
👉 You don’t have to understand Wall Street to take control of your wallet. Shari breaks down the emotional side of money and shows how to create a system that supports your goals, your lifestyle, and your peace of mind.

✅ Know the difference between a need, a want, and a wish
✅ Set up money dates and start talking with your partner early and often
✅ Don’t wait for a crisis to get involved in your household finances
