154. Why Do I Feel Guilty for Wanting Money?

“Men are allowed to ask for what they're worth. They're allowed to show up as the fullest version of themselves. They're allowed to take up space. They're allowed to purchase things without the shaming judgmental comments. Men are allowed to pursue wealth in a way that women just aren't.” Tori Dunlap

Have you ever felt guilty about wanting more money? Have you ever felt shame around wanting to charge more or get paid more? This episode of Financial Feminist tackles the deep-seated societal narratives that discourage women from pursuing financial security and independence and exposes the double standard that exists around money and wealth. Men are celebrated for their financial success, while women are expected to be selfless and prioritize the needs of others, often at the expense of their own financial well-being.

This episode is a must-listen for any woman who wants to challenge the status quo and build a life of financial freedom. Join Tori Dunlap as she dismantles the myths around women and money, and equips you with the tools and confidence to take control of your financial future.
