42 — How to Conquer FOMO with Financial Expert Farnoosh Torabi
Most of us go to great lengths to avoid uncomfortable emotions like anxiety or fear. But when we learn to question our fears and understand their origins, we can learn to use them to our advantage. On today's episode, we discuss facing fears head-on with a specific focus on how to cope with the fear of missing out.
Farnoosh Torabi is a financial expert, best-selling author, and host of the popular podcast So Money. With over 20 years of experience in the financial industry, she has become known as the "money lady." Farnoosh's latest book, The Healthy State of Panic," explores the power of fear and how it can be harnessed to achieve success.
Some of the things she shares are:
How fear is often the underlying emotion behind our financial decisions.
How power can be used for positive purposes, such as uplifting and supporting others.
FOMO can be a sign that we are craving a certain feeling, not necessarily the thing everyone else is doing.
How to define your own version of success and focus on what brings you joy and fulfillment.
Why setting boundaries and saying no can lead to a happier and more fulfilling life.

40 — The Minimalists: Why You Should Declutter Your Life with Joshua Fields Millburn
Minimalism can help you grow mentally stronger. When you clear the clutter, you make room for things that really matter in life. But it's not just physical clutter. Financial clutter, calendar clutter, and relationship clutter can also stand between you and your best life.
Knowing what to get rid of and how to simply your life can feel like an uphill battle.
Joshua Fields Millburn explains how to make room for what truly matters in life. He's a writer, speaker, and filmmaker known for his work on minimalism. He is one of the founders of The Minimalists, a website and podcast dedicated to helping people live more meaningful lives with less stuff. He's a New York Times Best-Selling author of several books, including Minimalism: Live a Meaningful Life and Everything That Remains. He has also produced two documentaries, Minimalism: A Documentary About the Important Things and Less Is Now, both of which are available on Netflix.
He shares his personal journey with minimalism, from living the American dream with a big house and lots of possessions to realizing that those things didn't bring him happiness or fulfillment.
Some of the things he talks about are how to quickly decide whether to keep something, the impact clearing clutter can have on your mental health, and practical strategies for working through the emotional attachment to sentimental items.
