The Finance Girlies Podcast ✳︎
This isn’t a finance bro podcast.
It’s two friends talking about money the way it actually shows up in our lives —
👉 In loving relationships.
👉 In divorce.
👉 In freelance income that isn’t the same every month.
👉 In investing anxiety.
👉 In friend dynamics and career pivots and those “what am I even doing?” moments.
Rather than give prescriptive advice, we tell stories.
We share what’s worked for us and what hasn’t.
We bring in experts when it helps.
And we leave space for you to think for yourself.
New episodes every Wednesday (aka Finance Girlie Wednesday).
What we love to talk about
(aka: the themes you’ll hear again and again)
-
You can know the investing basics and still feel frozen when it’s time to start. We get that. We talk about investing in a way that helps you take imperfect action even when confidence hasn’t caught up yet.
-
Emily is our resident conscious-consumerism queen. 👑 We talk a lot about slowing down and questioning the constant hamster wheel of “earn more; buy more” so many of us find ourselves on.
-
Money looks different when you work for yourself — and we don’t pretend otherwise. We talk openly about irregular income, creative work, burnout, boundaries, and the emotional side of building something sustainable without losing yourself in the process.
-
Money touches all relationships — not just romantic ones. We talk about partners, friends, family, weddings, breakups, and yes, divorce. From merging finances to decoupling them, this is where we get honest about how money shows up between people.
-
We’re lifelong learners — and unlearners, too. We love talking about the money stories we inherited, the ones we’re actively editing, and how worth, fear, shame, and self-trust get tangled up in our finances. Growth here is ongoing — and we’re very much in it alongside you.

Why you don’t feel ready to invest (and how to start anyway) / 67
Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) might be hiding in your benefits package, and most people have no idea how powerful they actually are. In this episode, we're breaking down everything you need to know about HSAs — from whether you're eligible to how to treat them like a secret retirement account.
Emily and Cassidy dive into the triple tax advantage that makes HSAs unlike any other account, explain the difference between HSAs and FSAs, and share real strategies for maximizing this financial tool. Whether you're using your HSA to cover medical expenses or letting it grow for decades, this episode has the framework you need to make an informed decision.
