If budgeting, saving, or paying off debt makes you feel awkward, overwhelmed, or just plain bad with money… this episode is for you.

In this episode, Brad shares a powerful story about teaching his son to drive, and why that experience perfectly explains what it feels like to start taking control of your finances.

Growth doesn’t feel good at first. It feels uncomfortable. It feels uncertain. It feels like you’re messing up.

But that doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means you’re learning.

If you’ve ever blown your budget, overspent, hesitated to look at your debt, or felt anxious about money conversations, you’re not broken. You’re just new.

It’s time to move Fear Forward.
