Show Notes
This week, I’m joined by the brilliant Carrie Rattle - a financial therapist who swapped Wall Street for something far more powerful: helping women untangle their relationship with money.
We’re talking over-shopping, emotional spending, and the sneaky ways it can show up in recovery.
If you’ve ever found yourself clicking “add to cart” when you’re stressed, overwhelmed, or just feeling a bit off, this one’s for you.
Highlights:
(03:12) Carrie’s 9/11 moment that changed everything
(08:46) What’s really happening when you shop emotionally
(14:21) The link between phones and compulsive shopping
(19:50) Simple first step to breaking the shopping cycle
(31:08) Childhood money stories that quietly shape behaviour
(42:16) Amy’s journey from £20k spends to control
