Podcast Episode 323: The Ultimate Advice for a Happy Life: You Don’t Need Permission!

Moms, let’s get real—why does doing something for yourself feel like such a guilty indulgence? Whether it’s splurging on that dreamy weekend retreat or just enjoying a quiet coffee (while it’s actually hot), we’re so conditioned to think we need permission to put ourselves first. Here’s the ultimate advice: stop waiting for someone to tell you it’s okay.

It’s more than okay—it’s necessary for your happy life.

The pressure to “ask first” runs deep. Maybe it’s the stories we grew up with, maybe it’s society’s unrealistic expectations, but the guilt trap is real.

Spoiler alert: men don’t hesitate to treat themselves, and neither should you. In just 30 minutes, we unpack why women feel stuck in this cycle, how it holds us back, and what you can do to break free. Imagine swapping guilt for confidence, hesitation for joy, and obligation for choice—doesn’t that sound like a happy life?

This podcast episode is your wake-up call to start saying “YES” to yourself.

No guilt, no permission, just the freedom to embrace what lights you up. Because your happy life starts now—and you’re worth it.

In this episode of the No Guilt Mom podcast you’ll learn:

  • The ugly reasons women often feel guilty about spending money on themselves and seek permission (while men don’t) 
  • Why strong communication is crucial for healthier relationships and avoiding misunderstandings.
  • Strategies to build your spending confidence 
  • What role your upbringing and societal expectations played in how you view money and spending.
