What’s Your Money Type and Why It Matters w/ Linda Grizely

This episode breaks down why understanding your relationship with money matters more than following generic financial advice. Linda Grisley, a certified financial planner turned financial educator, explains how psychology and mindset shape financial decisions and why one-size-fits-all strategies often fail.

In this episode:

• How early money stories and inherited advice (like "pay off your mortgage") can block sound financial decisions, especially when interest rates and market conditions have changed
• Why debt strategy should be personalized: the psychological win of the snowball method versus the math-driven savings of the avalanche method, and how to use AI tools like ChatGPT to model your actual numbers
• The Me Money Method, a budgeting approach that allocates guilt-free spending money for yourself, which works differently depending on whether you're naturally a restrictor or a spender
• How to use consolidation loans strategically to reduce interest payments without adding collateral risk, and why cutting up credit cards matters less in an Apple Pay world
• Why Linda moved from one-on-one financial planning into creating courses and doing motivational speaking focused on women and money psychology

Who this is for: Service business owners who earn strong income but struggle with financial decision-making because they're following advice that doesn't fit their actual situation, personality, or goals.
