In this episode, we chat with Paige Pritchard, a financial expert who specializes in helping people transition from overspending and debt to financial empowerment. She dives into the psychology behind spending, emotional triggers, and the importance of awareness in overcoming financial challenges. We also explore how societal norms and social media shape our spending habits, and how algorithms influence our perceptions of normalcy. Paige shares insights on the need for creativity over consumption and how creating healthier habits can lead to personal growth. We wrap up with practical tips for recognizing marketing tactics and developing a healthier relationship with money.

Who is Paige?

Paige Pritchard is a spending coach who helps women stop impulse shopping and overspending.

Paige discovered her passion for helping women develop healthier spending habits through her own personal struggles with impulse shopping when at age 22 she blew through her $60,000 salary after graduating from college.

By uncovering the root cause of her shopping and making a commitment to develop healthier spending habits she was able to turn her financial situation around in her twenties by paying off her $40,000 of student loan debt, cash flowing her MBA, becoming a homeowner and building a multiple six-figure investment portfolio by age 29.

In 2020 Paige became a certified life coach through The Life Coach School and since then has coached thousands of women to become better spenders and reach their full financial potential through her social channels, her podcast called The Money Love Podcast, and group coaching program, Overcoming Overspending.

Paige’s work has been featured in publications like NBC News, The Washington Post, The Daily Mail, BuzzFeed, The Guardian, and the Dr. Phil Show.
