Lisa, Tawny, and Jill share personal anecdotes and discuss societal pressures around money, making the topic approachable and relatable. They highlight the role of community and peer support in navigating financial challenges and stress the importance of unlearning harmful money habits.
If you've ever felt overwhelmed by financial stress or curious about how to better manage your money while staying sober, this episode offers practical advice and heartfelt support.
