Author: Sony Music Entertainment / Jonathan Van Ness October 29, 2025 Duration: 47:07
Money isn’t just about math — it’s about mindset. This week, JVN welcomes back financial educator, Her First $100K founder, and Financial Feminist Podcast host Tori Dunlap to the pod to talk about how we can break free from money shame and finally feel confident with our cash!  From debt and credit cards to saving, investing, and taxes, Tori breaks down the emotional and practical sides of money management — and why so many of us tie our self-worth to our bank accounts. They’re talking about how to build real financial confidence, stop saying “I’m bad with money,” and start making choices that align with your values. Whether you’re paying off debt, dreaming about investing, or just trying to chill every time you check your balance — this episode will help you rethink what financial freedom really means.  BIO: Tori Dunlap is a financial educator, author, and entrepreneur best known as the founder of Her First $100K, a multimillion-dollar company dedicated to financial feminism and helping women build money confidence. After saving $100,000 by age 25 and leaving her corporate marketing job, she grew her platform into a top podcast and New York Times bestselling book of the same name, Financial Feminist. Today, Tori reaches millions with practical tools for tackling debt, saving, and investing, and was named to Forbes 30 Under 30 for her work reshaping how women talk about money.
