About this listen

In this solo episode, I’m getting honest about something that’s been building for a while: why I’m ditching social media and creating a brave new space instead.

This isn’t about beating the algorithm or boosting engagement.

It’s about burnout.

It’s about safety.

And it’s about choosing a better way to build community (especially for people who are so often pushed out of online spaces)

I share:

  • What it really felt like to launch Mad About Money as a neurodivergent author
  • Why social media no longer feels safe or supportive for me (and so many others)
  • How I’m rebuilding a space that actually celebrates you
  • Some of the wild highs, personal lows, and incredible reader feedback from the past week
  • A reminder that if you’ve ever felt othered or invisible - you’re not alone, and you belong in my world

This episode is part book update, part behind-the-scenes, and part rally cry. If you’re ready for something more honest, more inclusive, and way more human… this is it.

✨ Come hang out with us in the new Mad About Money community - I’d love to have you!
