The Overcoming Overspending Podcast

If you've ever made a purchase you instantly regretted — or wondered why you keep impulse spending even though you "know better" — this episode is for you.
In this masterclass-style episode, Paige walks you through her three core pillars for going from impulsive spending to intentional spending — without restriction, guilt, or rigid rules.
You'll learn why impulse spending isn't actually about the thing you're buying, how urgency and dopamine hijack your decision-making, and what it really takes to slow down your purchases in a world designed to make you buy now.
This episode breaks down the practical tools and the emotional work required to become someone who spends with purpose, clarity, and confidence — even when emotions are high and logic feels low.
🎧 In this episode, you'll learn:
The real difference between impulsive spending and intentional spending

Why impulse purchases often lead to regret, clutter, and depleted savings

How to use distance, pause protocols, and consumption commandments to slow down spending

How to uncover the emotional promise behind impulse buys

Why dopamine drives impulsive spending — and how to replace it in healthier ways

How to quiet your inner "money mean girl" and tolerate unmet desire

Why identity is the final key to becoming an intentional spender

This episode will help you stop reacting to urges, start trusting yourself with money again, and build a spending approach that actually supports the life you want to live.
Listen closely — and come back to this one often.

Why is it so hard to make decisions today that benefit you years from now?
In this episode, we're diving into one of the most powerful — and underused — tools for long-term financial change: Future Financial You.
You'll learn why most people struggle to delay gratification, why saving and long-term planning feel unnatural to the brain, and how the lack of connection to your future self keeps you stuck in short-term patterns — even when you know better.
We'll explore the neuroscience behind future-self connection, why vague visions don't pull you forward, and how to stop trying to buy transformation through aspirational spending. Instead, you'll learn how to build your future from the inside out — through identity, emotional capacity, habits, time, and relationships.
This episode walks you through a powerful framework and reflective exercise that helps you turn your future self into a real source of accountability — not through discipline or restriction, but through self-respect and care.
🎧 In this episode, you'll learn:
What "Future Financial You" actually is — and why she matters

Why most people feel disconnected from their future selves

How this disconnect fuels impulsive spending and short-term decisions

The difference between aspirational spending and real transformation

Why vague futures don't motivate action — but vivid ones do

The 5 core areas that define your future self (beyond what she owns)

How to use visualization to stay aligned with long-term goals

If you want to make better decisions today without relying on willpower — this episode will change how you think about money, identity, and your future.

Why do so many people start the year feeling motivated — and then quietly give up on their goals just weeks later?
In this episode, we're breaking down the real reason most goals don't stick, and it has nothing to do with discipline, willpower, or motivation. The real issue is that most people approach their goals with interest instead of commitment — and when uncertainty shows up, they quit.
You'll learn why nearly half of people abandon their goals by the end of January, why your brain would rather cling to the certainty of failure than tolerate the uncertainty of success, and how misaligned expectations cause people to give up right before progress compounds.
We'll talk about the neuroscience behind quitting, the emotional discomfort that shows up in the "messy middle," and how to reframe uncertainty as a sign that you're actually doing something right — not wrong.
This episode will help you stop abandoning yourself when things get hard and start building the emotional resilience required to follow through on what you say you want.
 
🎧 In this episode, we cover:
The critical difference between being interested in a goal vs. committed to it

Why most people quit when progress isn't linear

How uncertainty triggers your brain to give up prematurely

The "valley of disappointment" and why dreams die there

How to build tolerance for discomfort instead of running from it

What commitment actually looks like when motivation fades

 
If you're ready to stop starting over, tolerate uncertainty without quitting, and become someone who finishes what she starts — this episode is for you.

What if the reason you haven't created the life you know you're capable of has nothing to do with discipline, intelligence, or motivation — and everything to do with what your brain believes is "realistic" for you?
 
In this episode, we're diving deep into the neuroscience behind possibility, belief, and why so many high-achieving women stay stuck repeating the same year over and over — even when they want more.
 
You'll learn how your brain forms a possibility map that quietly dictates what you pursue, what feels safe, and what you automatically rule out. We'll unpack why "realistic goals" often keep you small, how your fear center and filtering system work against big visions, and why thinking bigger is actually easier — and more motivating — for your brain than thinking small.
 
This conversation will challenge you to re-evaluate the goals you've set for 2026 and ask the question most people avoid: Is this actually big enough to require a new version of me?
 
If you're ready to stop playing within the limits of your past and start expanding what feels possible for your future, this episode will completely change the way you think about goals, growth, and what you're capable of creating next.
 
🎧 In this episode, you'll learn:
Why intelligence has far less to do with success than the size of your thinking

How your brain's possibility map shapes your goals (without you realizing it

Why realistic goals can be the riskiest goals you set

How thinking bigger rewires your brain for motivation, opportunity, and growth

What it actually takes to expand your definition of "safe" and "possible" in 2026


This is your invitation to think bigger — not recklessly, but intentionally — and to step into a future that stretches you, challenges you, and transforms you.
