"In my opinion, it's even more important than the numbers. Really understanding who you are and how that impacts the way you move through the world and your life is going to have such a big impact on your finances." - Ellyce Fulmore
Happy Halloween, $HMONEY hunnies! 👻
You're in for a vulnerable and insightful chat with founder, influencer, financial educator and advocate, Ellyce Fulmore.
When Ellyce started her financial journey, she had just $60 in her pocket and $35,000 in debt. In all attempts to improve her situation, following cookie-cutter solutions that didn't speak to her unique lifestyle got her nowhere. But through trial and error, she came up with Queerd Co.: a haven and resource filled with money strategies, tools, and resources that didn't force folks to reject pieces of their identity to succeed.
Ellyce has always believed the problem with so much of traditional finance education is that it doesn't consider who you are as a person. So, in this episode, we discuss:
- Her money storyHow venturing down the physiotherapy path and simultaneously hitting her financial rock bottom served as a wake-up callThe influence our personalities have on our money behavioursStarting Queerd Co.How being neurodivergent impacts money storiesThe "dopamine deficiency" and how to add some back into your money systemHer signature "Neuro$picy Money Method" and shame-free, trauma-informed approachLifestyle changes she's made to alleviate daily stressors and help manage her money and well-being as someone living with ADHDHer personal five-account banking systemThe importance of intersectionality in everyone's money story and ability to build wealthHer first book, Keeping Finance PersonalVoting with your dollars (practicing values-based spending) under capitalismA scary-fun rapid-fire round
