What Does It Really Mean to Be 'Intentional' about Your Money? with Leah Hadley, AFC®, CDFA®

"Intentional" -- we throw this word around a lot, especially when it comes to money. I use it all the time on the podcast. In this episode, we're taking some time to break down that word and understand what it really means to be "intentional" about money. We're joined by Leah Hadley, founder of Intentional Wealth Partners and Intentional Divorce Solutions, the ideal guest to help us define what it means to be intentional with money. Leah explains intentionality as aligning decisions with long-term impact and personal values, which can feel energizing and reduce decision fatigue We also talk about intention when it comes to: budgeting, earning, divorcing, and planning for retirement. Leah reframes budgeting as planning and positioning resources toward exciting goals and reminds us--it's ok to get excited about money. We talk about earning with intention and how work environments and stress can affect our overall financial health. Leah shares the importance of intentionality during divorce: processing emotions, seeking supportive professionals, and designing a new chapter rather than rushing decisions. We also talk about investing and planning for retirement early, as well as how to be intentional in our giving (as women, we are givers!) and how to set boundaries on giving money to adult children. For more information about Leah and her work, you can find her on Instagram LinkedIn and YouTube. ***
