  • The $6 Latte Isn't Your Problem (This Is) | Holistic Financial Coach - Jenni Fulton
    Dec 7 2025
    Introduction: In the latest episode of the Empower Her podcast, host Priya Verma engages in a thought-provoking discussion with Jenni Fulton, a holistic financial coach dedicated to helping women reclaim their financial power. Their conversation delves into the emotional patterns influencing women's relationships with money, the societal narratives that need to be challenged, and practical steps for achieving financial empowerment.


    Understanding Holistic Financial Coaching: Jenni explains that holistic financial coaching is about more than just budgeting and saving; it’s a transformative process that encourages individuals to heal their emotional connections to money. She emphasizes that the journey begins with recognizing the shame and self-doubt many women carry regarding their financial decisions. By addressing these emotional barriers, women can redefine their relationship with wealth and abundance. Jenni’s own journey into this field was inspired by her personal experiences and the realization that many resources do not cater to women from diverse backgrounds.


    The Societal Narratives About Money: Throughout the podcast, both Priya and Jenni discuss the harmful narratives that women often internalize, such as the belief that they are “not good with money” or that their spending habits are frivolous. Jenni highlights how these narratives are often rooted in societal expectations and stereotypes that paint women’s financial decisions in a negative light. For instance, she recalls how media portrayals in movies like "Clueless" and "Legally Blonde" have influenced perceptions of women and money. These narratives can perpetuate guilt and shame, making it harder for women to embrace their financial independence.


    Unlearning Financial Myths: One of the key takeaways from their conversation is the importance of unlearning damaging beliefs about money. Jenni encourages women to reflect on where these beliefs originated, whether from family, friends, or societal messages. She points out that many women mistakenly believe that financial literacy is an innate skill rather than something that can be learned. By recognizing this myth, women can start to see money management as a skill they can develop just like any other.


    The Importance of Community and Support: Jenni stresses the significance of community support in overcoming financial hurdles. She shares that many of her clients come to her ready to challenge their beliefs about money, which is a crucial step in their empowerment journey. By fostering a supportive environment, women can feel more comfortable discussing their finances and seeking help when needed. Jenni’s practice, Untamed Abundance, serves as a platform for women to connect with resources and workshops that promote financial literacy and healing.


    Conclusion: In a world where women are often held to different standards regarding their financial decisions, the conversation between Priya and Jenni serves as a reminder of the importance of empowerment through education and community. By addressing emotional patterns and challenging societal narratives, women can reclaim their financial power and build a healthier relationship with money. Key takeaways from this episode include the need to unlearn harmful beliefs, the value of community support, and the understanding that financial literacy is a skill that can be developed.
