The last few minutes of this hit hard. My husband was a financial advisor for a large firm and he had a lot of similar philosophies as Tiffany. My husband also passed away last year. when she broke down I felt it hard. She is so right about spending money on memories. I’m planning a big trip (expensive) with my sons because we’ve gone through a lot with the loss of their dad. It will be so worth every penny bc we will remember it forever. Our family was so focused on saving and paying off debt that we didn’t make those amazing family memories when he was alive. I don’t want to leave this earth without my kids having those memories.
I'm deeply sorry for your loss. My husband passed away this past Thanksgiving and I also felt the pain the last 10 minutes. Wealth is having the fortune to love and be loved. One of the greatest gifts.
My husband is also an FA and he works so hard and he just don’t want to do much until he has certain money put up and I explain to him we need experiences with our kids, so they know we love them not what we have. We are in need of nothing, we’re not in debt. Let’s live life while saving for the future. God Bless you and your children 🙏🏽❤️
8 mo’s pregnant & been going thru thru! Watching this while making runs & caring for my 6 yr old autistic son I made no excuses not to listen! Tiffany & Mel thank u sm for sharing this!! I cried like a baby & I took it all in, I feel lighter, more empowered & I can see some light in this tunnel that I have been trapped in! I’m on my way out 🙏🧘♀️😓🤧🥹🖤🤰
@@AmberCaprie amen to that & thank u sm!!! Same to you we are blessed to be chosen parents to care for an autistic child! They are truly a blessing & I’m learning from him everyday. He was an identical twin, my other son passed away & I think about him everyday as well 🫂🥰
The last part got me crying, we are obsessed with chasing more money we neglet people who are important to us, almost a month I have not talked to any of my family members and damn I feel like a terrible person, I just needed the last part so badly thank you
❤️❤️If you quit listening before the end of this podcast.. you may very well miss the key to the rest of your life. I hope I never forget this. Thank you both so very much for this podcast today.. I’m not sure I will ever hear anything more important and real Wow ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Im still in tears even after I've watched it writing this comment. 😢 I feel so much more encouraged to get things in order in my life. So much knowledge and love in that room that I feel like I've just been hugged and educated. I just want to hug Tiffany every time I hear how much of an impact her husband left with her and how much she's impacting everyone around her. We need more like her in our everyday life and I'm going to start being that for those around me. I love all y'all...no questions asked!!! Xoxo 😘
No,we don't all love Linda.Some of us want to remain in denial sometimes and avoid being depressed for a little.Avoidance is not the key,I know,but someone who reads this will understand. Linda is useful though..
Tiffany Aliche, The Budgetnista, shows us the power of genuine laughter. Her joy makes finance fun and lights up any room. It's a rare gift that makes you pause and smile. Here's to laughing more like Tiffany does-authentically and joyfully.
Seriously, as a 65 year old artist - I have taken myself for granted - not charging enough for my artwork!!! Thank you for the eye opening inspiration!
I’ve been sticking to a few basic rules that have really helped me stay on track. One, always pay yourself first. Setting aside a chunk for savings before you touch anything else is crucial
Yes! I started doing that recently, and it makes such a difference. I also started investing more strategically, like spreading out my risk. Have you guys heard of the ‘diversification’ rule? It’s really helped me keep my portfolio balanced
Then, emergency fund, having that cushion has saved me so many times, especially when unexpected expenses come up. Feels great not to dip into investments when something goes wrong
I recently started consulting with Nora Jean Erickson, a CFP, and it’s been a game-changer. She actually helped me refine these strategies even further.
“When you don’t understand money and you’re really scared about where you are, it clouds everything that’s important to you.” ❤ I felt that! Thank you both.
Thank you for this comment. Because of your comment I fast forwarded to the last 10 minutes and based on that I determine I needed to watch the whole video.😊🙏🏾
Depending on what you already know. The whole interview was a lesson on mindset. Someone who doesn’t understand money, and how it works to benefit them, watch the whole thing.
I started my business February 2022, went from 32k salary to $72k income and $52k profit in a year. This 2023 last month (May) I paid all my personal debt 🙏🏽$12in debt. I’m debt free ❤️. This month I’m starting saving for my goal (has a house and don’t pay in rent. I prefer paying in a mortgage. It has been hard, not trips, not restaurants, no new clothes, no party. That will come later. I am super focus in my client, learning about my business and making money to pay my debts. If I could do it , everyone can. It’s not excuses. We put our own limitations. I hope after taxes next year I can start the process to buy a house, if not I have other plans to invest my money 💵 .
Wow Tiffany, you had me in 😢 tears, soo sorry for your loss! I don't have much money, but I have the love of 6 grandkids that I spend time with ❤ Thank you for sharing 🎉
Please take the time to watch the entire video because if you just skip to the very end, all you’re going to hear is a sad story, but if you watch the entire video, everything will come together, and you will understand the meaning and the impact on life itself.
I’m so proud of her for getting so real about the loss of her husband, I’ve certainly never before cried listening to a podcast about finances 😢❤ What a beautiful moment 🥰
So many golden nuggets, diamonds and rubies dropped by Tiffany. I’m in a much better place because of all the knowledge and wisdom she’s shared in her interviews, books and actions. I truly appreciate you Tiffany! Mel, great interview!
😢Tiffany so so sorry for your loss. But I’m so grateful to be filled with your presence in this podcast. You are truly a gift. Words can’t even express the gratitude. Thanks Mel🙏🏾💜💜
Ive listened to you from the beginning but I don't think any episode has had such an impact on me. An important and insightful podcast to hear but the last 10 minutes is what it is all about and the honesty and raw emotion is important to hear.
This was THE most influential money podcast I’ve ever listened to. I’ve already implemented most of her advice into my life and feel so much more in control of my money than I ever have before!! Absolutely LOVED every minute of this and am grateful for Tiffany sharing her story.
I don’t want to spoil it…. But she so real and authentic… I cried like a baby… She made me appreciate life a lot more than I did. It all boils down to your family and spending those special moments with them. ❤❤❤
WOW! Thank you ladies for this amazing episode, One of the best I've heard in a long time!! I'm 54yrs old trying to build myself from ground zero after a narcissist abusive relationship and this episode was so powerful & inspiring that i can't say thank you enough... and those last 10 mins oh WOW, that is actually all the knowledge you really need. Mel & Tiffany, Thank you and I Love you both ❤
I can do relate 30 years in narcissistic abusive marriage financially abused and at zero only worked part time looking after his sick family my salary was controlled by only having enough to put food on table while he lived like a king me and our daughter was kept like paupers but the illusion to the outside world was I was so looked after still fighting a divorce that his father is paying his costs I’m in so much debt and feel like no way out 😢🙏
there's a book called whispers of manifestation on borlest , and it talks about how using some secret tehniques you can attract almost everything in life it's not some bullshit law of attraction, it's the real deal
“A budget is there to find the ‘Yes’ in the safest way possible” is exactly what I needed to hear today. Love it! Thank you both for sharing this convo. I’m so pleased to hear two women talking finance. I never saw that growing up, it was always about depending on a man and now my man is burnt out from over working and I feel it’s my turn to step it up and find our “Yes”. Thank you!
Mel, I just want to say thank you. I’m wiping tears as I’m writing this and I thought I had to let you know that this episode resonated so much with me. Yes, I do my dishes at night as a gift to myself in the morning, I give myself a high five in the mirror when I remember. As a single mom of three, building a baking business from my small kitchen during covid, with three kids under 9 at home, now getting to be in a brick and mortar, money was always a topic I would put aside in my brain for ‘later’. And you’re right, no one is coming, I have to do it for myself and my kids! So slowly, I will be making that list tonight and facing the money music.
I am one of those women who lost the love of my life at age 61, and also lost about everything financially when he passed. We were not prepared for a major event and were just hanging on, paycheck to paycheck. We were so happy together and thought there would be time to get our finances together. Its been 5 years now and i am hanging in there, still have my house, working 2 jobs, worried about ever being able to retire. I love what I've learned in this video and just love Tiffany. I will get her book and follow her blog. She's given me hope (and more than a few tears with that ending). Thanks so much for the inspiration, Mel and Tiffany 💕
When you don’t understand money and you are scared about where you are, it’s clouds everything that’s important. And you spend all of your emotional energy in that shame and you are not present in your life ❤️ Thank you so much Mel & Tiffany.
Thank you for discussing the idea of ENOUGH! My partner also passed a couple years ago, my daughter had a TBI, two of my kids were severely abused - success for me is being able to care for my kids so that they feel loved and cared for. That’s having a clean warm place to live, eating and moving well and TIME TOGETHER.
This is my first time listening to her and she just mentioned every strategy i use and share with friends, just wow! it was amazing listening to this, anyone doubting should know that it works because i am a living proof.
Wow! I am blown away and emotional in a good way... I woke up to this and got up even if it was 4:30AM. I started declutering my office while listening. Lol don't ask... just felt right. I have also gone through financial hardship supporting someone dear to me with mental health issues for 24 years of my life. I am finally out of it but wished I had know about this 7 years ago. Even if I got out of the financial whole I was in, I am not great with money. I make ok money for the middle class here in Canada sonI know I need to manage and budget better. You can bet on me re-watching this again and putting it to practice. You two took my anxiety related to money away. Wow! What a relief. Thank you and have an amazing healthy and happy day. Rachelle Downton, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
I can’t believe how empowering Tiffany is like what you said, in the first 5 mins of this podcast I made a list and set up an auto payment to my credit cards. THANK YOU for giving your viewers a hope to rise up from debts.
Thank you for your vulnerability, Tiffany. You didn't bring the energy down. You needed to let that out. Someone was listening that was dealing with the same loss, and you blessed them. They cried with you. Bless you and your family.
My favorite episode of all time! I laughed, I cried, and the ending! No actual human words! Tiffany’s honesty and vulnerability slapped! I mean… wow! She took my literal breath away! Thank you both for being so real for us! We love you both and appreciate you sharing all the things with us!!! ❤
The budgetnista helped me tremendously just by watching her interviews. When I was laid off, my credit was good with very low balances, I had money saved and I was living beneath my means. Things still got challenging but if I didn’t learn money basics things would’ve been worse. Thank God ❤
Such a powerful podcast. I've been watching throughout the day, rewatching parts, making notes etc. I've learned so much and excited about making those much needed shifts in my mindset and processes to make the most of my money. Thank you so much both of you beautiful ladies, honestly I've just got so much gratitude for you both. 💛 🙏🏼✨️
WOW ! This ranks as one my faves of your podcasts ! I'm rebuilding after a divorce. Bless both of you for being so transparent. Wonderful really wonderful !
Thank you Mel for proving a safe place to talk about finance, to grief talk. All good topics people shy away from. Tiffany, thank you!! Great points from $, to self care, to family and what really matters. My condolences, my heart goes out to you. I lost mom at an early age. Money has been front and center. Along with grief. YOU LIFTED OUR ENERGY. Please never apologize for speaking your truth.
Tiffany, you’ve yet to show up without blessing everyone around. Thank you for being you-Showing up as your full self, being transparent and helping others selflessly yet intentionally. Mel said it best-YOU ARE SUCH A BLESSING Sis! ❤❤❤ Add this to your “Go Me” folder-you’re a GEM! 💎❤
Thank you Mel for inviting Tiffany for the podcast. Tiffany, the Lord continue to strengthen and comfort you for the loss of your husband. Keep shining ladies, grateful for you both ❤
So I’m cruising through Walmart picking up some things that I needed then I walked over to the book section which I never ever do and I was like I wonder if anything’s gonna call out to me… Her book caught my eye ..I purchased it and told myself I was going to utilize it. This morning when I woke up and opened TH-cam to find some motivational type conversation this channel popped up, which I’ve never watch before with the interview featuring her. this is a great interview and I’m just grateful to the universe for always guiding my steps.
What an amazing…and empowering…episode! I suspect that I’m not the only one, but I had to dry my eyes before I could hop on here to comment. 😉 Tiffany taught me more than I had anticipated, WHILE learning that I have a natural aptitude for living a well-budgeted life. Who knew?!? For about 20yrs, I’ve kept separate accounts...exactly as advised here. (I’m also a former teacher!) Presently, I’m unemployed and jobhunting...and know that so many of us are in this financially stressful position. This episode reminded me to BREATHE through it all. #om Thank you, Mel & Tiffany, for guiding us through life. You are both doing SO much good in this world. ❤ Wishing everyone a day of GOOD THINGS!
This episode is SO important. I am the budgeter of our family, always have been. Excel spreadsheets, all of it. This changed my perspective on all of it and I will begin to implement this work into my budgeting practice. Already working on my lists and will certainly be using this “Snowball Method” moving forward. Love to all. ❤️
You always know what I need to hear, and when I need it, Mel. If noone has told YOU today, I love you and I appreciate you. Have a wonderful day. Thank you for all you do ❤
What a Brilliant Segment on Budgeting, Smart Credit Strategies and Survival in the midst of Grief. Your speaker was poignant in her delivery of money matters. Our hearts go out to her on the 2 year anniversary of her husband's Demise. May God continue to bless her steps and keep her focused on the future ahead ❤
Getting to the end was worth every second that built up to it. I loved it so much!! Thank you Tiffany for sharing your grief. ❤ it was so beautiful to see how you have handled it. Thank you for acknowledging it and discussing it on this open forum. It really is seen appreciated.
I love all of your episodes but this one was far more special than I could ever have anticipated. The end about her husband was such a powerful reminder of what really matters in life. Thank you both!
I am crying 😭 (the end) I enjoyed all of the valuable advise; from Thursday family financial meetings, confronting the fear of opening bills, having the support of a friend/community.. all of this financial empowerment to ALLOW a meaningful life with our loved ones. I feel inspired, determined and touched by this episode. Thank you ladies for changing lives. ❤🌏
This was one of the best interviews I’ve ever watched. I’ve taken 4 pages of notes. And I cried at the end with you. Thank you for sharing your life experience with your loving husband. You’ve inspired me financially and emotionally ❤❤❤
I don't know why I decided to put on this episode, it had been on my pending list. I am so glad I did. Mel I've listen to some time, in my head, she is one of my home girls but first time listening to Tiffany Aliche. I am going through so much she is talking about and I am so glad these two talk about how shameful and scary debt can be when you are in it. It most definitely clouds you but lately I am finally clearing those skies and just going, going, going. I feel watching this video was another "keep going". Adore these ladies, the message and educating people on money and their relationship with it. Most of all, I love that Mel always ends all her messages with "I love you".
Just started listening. I will listen to the end. I have been a single mother my entire life been in relationships, but I am the only provider for my son who is now 28 and of course he provides for himself at this point… Paying yourself First has always been something that’s been taught for a very, very long time. Sadly, I’m still at a point where I don’t pay myself first I pay my bills and if I’m lucky I have some money for groceries and such. I am a septic shock survivor, and my cognitive/memory skills and physical limitations and auto immune diseases have limited my ability to work I was once a teacher and can no longer continue in that path. I’m excited to listen to the podcast in full and get inspiration.🙏🏻💛 Oh my goodness I have a “stack” as well😂
Words cannot describe just how powerful this episode is. I have felt shame for my financial situation over the past few years. I have kept it hidden and put on a brave face. The realness of this episode has helped me move into a place of acceptance and empowerment. Thank you, thank you, thank you ♥️
I have to say that I ran across Tiffany a few years ago and I didn't listen to anything cuz I read a negative comment that said everybody can't live on their friends or family's couches to get ahead and then I disregarded anything. After listening to this podcast I truly feel like it has changed my perspective. Because change of perspective you change your life. I also sent this podcast to all of my children today marks the beginning of a complete turnaround
This episode touched me so much. I got a lot out of it with regards to the financial information. I’m so empowered by this show on a regular basis, but today… the authenticity about each of your mistakes and where you are now, and then, Tiffany talking so authentically at the end about her loss and the reason why caring for your money is so important and how you make your loved ones a priority being even more important. Wow. Just wow. Two amazing women inspiring the world through information communicated with heart. Thank you. This episode is a gift.
I’m new to the Mel Robbins world of podcasts and this one has convinced me I should never miss another one. Fantastic information and wow! What an emotional connection.
So much good advice. I cried with you at the end. My husband was sick for many years and I was able to make adjustments so that the loss of him would not financially crush us. I still miss him every day, but my son and I have been able to take the time to grieve because I took steps to make sure we could survive. I will be using many of Tiffany's mindset shifts to take myself to the next financial level. Thank you.
Oh my, what a blessing this podcast has been. I’ve got hope. I too am a widow and he died leaving everything paid off for me. I’ve spent money as I’ve grieved and now I have a mortgage and credit card debt. Thank you for giving me hope.
what an amazing human. the spirituality part of it at the end, and the personal story Tiffany shared really resonates with me. I'm very grateful for this episode!
Watching this video late night, working to save my business, and yet the last 15 minutes of my life has been a blur. Tiffany's brilliant advice is simple and practical, and I'm so glad that I watched this all the way through.
Literally put this video on hold and called my bank to see how I can split my money from self employed payments! Thank you Mel for sharing your angst with money! I admire you so much and this conversation is just giving me peace ❤ 💰
WOW!!! 😢❤😢❤ This was so empowering. Thank you two ladies for the open honesty. This was such a wonderful course in 1 1/2 hours. Tiffany you touched my heart so much throughout and then when you opened up about your amazing husband I broke down. 😭😭 I am typing through tears. Seriously! I feel your hurt and how much you miss him. I have one of those amazing men too. Just amazing and I want to help more to help him care for us. This debt is a beast especially since I had an accident that threw us through a financial tsunami!That 3 month cushion is no longer soft. It’s hard out here. We really need your help. I am going to look you up to book a call or consultation or something. I pray your peace and healing every day❤. Thanks Ladies!
So, I've listened to this TWICE. My favorite podcast to. the. end. When it was over, I thought "Girls Trip!" I realize that's a long shot because you don't know me. LOL God bless you both. (And, Tiffany, you loved your husband so well here. You really honored him. Well done.)
You are both a gift to me. THANK YOU both! I became a widow 14 years ago. My hubby was killed by a drunk, drugged driver who wanted to commit suicide. So he crossed the center line and they both died. The guy had very little insurance, and absolutely nothing of his own. I went from a 2 income to 1 income in a split second.
❤My heart goes out to you, Tiffany, in the loss of your beloved husband. I am a “grey divorce” survivor-married 30 years, together 35, until his narcissism really took hold and then took everything from me. I’m 68, a clerical worker background but had to take a retail job when I was scammed out of my “home sale” money - my life savings. Now I’m $30,000 in debt, my retail store job went backrupt and it’s harder for me to find employment. Do you have any tips for senior workers??? I need a job to pay down my debt. God bless you and anyone who has any suggestions for me and others like me. You are a Godsend, Mel - thank you from my heart 💗🌷💗🌷💗🌷💗
Try making money on social media becoming a social media influencer. Take your talents and skills and display it in the internet on TH-cam and Tik-Tok etc. get a younger person to help set up a social media account or platform for you and make money off TH-cam and Tik Tok. I think that would work out best for you as a senior, especially If the job market is trying to age you out. Social media won’t. Take one of your ideas or skills, open a social media platform, build an audience and make some money. The internet is your best bet to pay off that debt and make money.
Oh, precious Tiffany! I'm so glad i came across this video. I've seen so many things about her and budgeting but never got to see this side of her, and I'm really sorry for her loss. Love her even more!
Wow. Not only was the financial advice she gave beautiful but the last minutes of this video give such a powerful feeling and message. Must watch! One of my favorite Mel podcasts…
Tiffany, I knew I found this episode for a reason today. I needed the help with money, but I also needed to hear from someone who shares my experience of losing their romantic partner (physical loss, anyway) and who knows how to center what is really important. Thank you for all that you do. Mel, thank you for having such amazing content for us. We need you.
This was an absolutely wonderful episode for so many reasons . Thank you Mel for and Tiffany for opening my eyes not only to the importance of debt, budgeting and saving but making me aware that Money doesn't equal love or happiness,. Time is so precious !
The last few minutes of this hit hard. My husband was a financial advisor for a large firm and he had a lot of similar philosophies as Tiffany. My husband also passed away last year. when she broke down I felt it hard. She is so right about spending money on memories. I’m planning a big trip (expensive) with my sons because we’ve gone through a lot with the loss of their dad. It will be so worth every penny bc we will remember it forever.

Totally agree. With your comments
You’re right. The end deeply touched me.
Tears rolling down my face.
Mel, my gurl. Thank you for getting a black woman to speak on this xx
“Shame shields the solution”, that is my new mantra.❤
Repent and receive Jesus Christ as your lord and savior and inherit salvation

So simple yet so freeing! 🎉
When she broke down crying it really got me.
Truly inspiring this podcast.
Thank you Tiffany for your vulnerability at the end and thank you Mel for supporting her so well 😭❤️ such valuable wisdom thank you.
Heart filling💓
so glad they didn't edit that out❤
Im still in tears even after I've watched it writing this comment. 😢 I feel so much more encouraged to get things in order in my life. So much knowledge and love in that room that I feel like I've just been hugged and educated. I just want to hug Tiffany every time I hear how much of an impact her husband left with her and how much she's impacting everyone around her. We need more like her in our everyday life and I'm going to start being that for those around me. I love all y'all...no questions asked!!! Xoxo 😘
Can we all just agree that we all love Linda?
My take away is to try to be someone’s Linda
Love 💕 Linda
No,we don't all love Linda.Some of us want to remain in denial sometimes and avoid being depressed for a little.Avoidance is not the key,I know,but someone who reads this will understand. Linda is useful though..
Being someone's Linda is more doable...@@ModdyPuppets
Yes. Yes, we can!
Tiffany Aliche, The Budgetnista, shows us the power of genuine laughter. Her joy makes finance fun and lights up any room. It's a rare gift that makes you pause and smile. Here's to laughing more like Tiffany does-authentically and joyfully.
Seriously, as a 65 year old artist - I have taken myself for granted - not charging enough for my artwork!!! Thank you for the eye opening inspiration!
I’ve been sticking to a few basic rules that have really helped me stay on track. One, always pay yourself first. Setting aside a chunk for savings before you touch anything else is crucial
Yes! I started doing that recently, and it makes such a difference. I also started investing more strategically, like spreading out my risk. Have you guys heard of the ‘diversification’ rule? It’s really helped me keep my portfolio balanced
Then, emergency fund, having that cushion has saved me so many times, especially when unexpected expenses come up. Feels great not to dip into investments when something goes wrong
Those are solid rules! But with so many moving parts in managing finances, it can be a lot to figure out.
I recently started consulting with Nora Jean Erickson, a CFP, and it’s been a game-changer. She actually helped me refine these strategies even further.
Really? I’ve been considering getting some professional advice too. Did she help you save more, or was it more about investment strategy?
This woman is a living life lesson. God bless her and her message. She really got me at the end ❤❤❤❤
“When you don’t understand money and you’re really scared about where you are, it clouds everything that’s important to you.” ❤ I felt that! Thank you both.
The last 10 minutes is actually the knowledge we all really need! Wow!
ABSOLUTELY!!!!
You would think people would know it
Thank you for this comment.
Because of your comment I fast forwarded to the last 10 minutes and based on that I determine I needed to watch the whole video.😊🙏🏾
Depending on what you already know. The whole interview was a lesson on mindset.
Someone who doesn’t understand money, and how it works to benefit them, watch the whole thing.
Thanks for sharing this comment. I listened to the entire training. I think it’s a training. The last part was indeed profound.

I hope after taxes next year I can start the process to buy a house, if not I have other plans to invest my money 💵 .
So inspiring!!!
what business?
Congratulations to you.
Wow Tiffany, you had me in 😢 tears, soo sorry for your loss! I don't have much money, but I have the love of 6 grandkids that I spend time with ❤ Thank you for sharing 🎉
😂ww I love this
Please take the time to watch the entire video because if you just skip to the very end, all you’re going to hear is a sad story, but if you watch the entire video, everything will come together, and you will understand the meaning and the impact on life itself.
I was just about to skip to the end until I read this comment.
Agree
100%
I’m so proud of her for getting so real about the loss of her husband, I’ve certainly never before cried listening to a podcast about finances 😢❤ What a beautiful moment 🥰
So many golden nuggets, diamonds and rubies dropped by Tiffany. I’m in a much better place because of all the knowledge and wisdom she’s shared in her interviews, books and actions. I truly appreciate you Tiffany! Mel, great interview!
😢Tiffany so so sorry for your loss. But I’m so grateful to be filled with your presence in this podcast. You are truly a gift. Words can’t even express the gratitude. Thanks Mel🙏🏾💜💜
What a gift Tiffany is. Such heartfelt, grounded advice. Her parting words were gold - 'meaning is everything'
She’s so strong . Gosh bless her ! Made me
Tear up and I’m at my 9-5 figuring out how to get my money to work for me .
Ive listened to you from the beginning but I don't think any episode has had such an impact on me. An important and insightful podcast to hear but the last 10 minutes is what it is all about and the honesty and raw emotion is important to hear.
This was THE most influential money podcast I’ve ever listened to. I’ve already implemented most of her advice into my life and feel so much more in control of my money than I ever have before!! Absolutely LOVED every minute of this and am grateful for Tiffany sharing her story.
One your best guests so far Mel. I have not heard other finial experts give the tips she does. No shaming, no unrealistic savings goals.
I don’t want to spoil it…. But she so real and authentic… I cried like a baby… She made me appreciate life a lot more than I did. It all boils down to your family and spending those special moments with them. ❤❤❤
WOW! Thank you ladies for this amazing episode, One of the best I've heard in a long time!!
I'm 54yrs old trying to build myself from ground zero after a narcissist abusive relationship and this episode was so powerful & inspiring that i can't say thank you enough... and those last 10 mins oh WOW, that is actually all the knowledge you really need.
Mel & Tiffany, Thank you and
I Love you both ❤
I can do relate 30 years in narcissistic abusive marriage financially abused and at zero only worked part time looking after his sick family my salary was controlled by only having enough to put food on table while he lived like a king me and our daughter was kept like paupers but the illusion to the outside world was I was so looked after still fighting a divorce that his father is paying his costs I’m in so much debt and feel like no way out 😢🙏
Agreed!!! You've got this.
Wow-me too ! In my empty nest days and trying to build my life back up through TH-cam, budgeting , and hopefully to invest soon!!!!
We all are. ❤
❤Me too, Virginia, I’m praying for you and all other women who suffer this relationship disease. 🌹
there's a book called whispers of manifestation on borlest , and it talks about how using some secret tehniques you can attract almost everything in life it's not some bullshit law of attraction, it's the real deal
First I cried with you ladies! Such a way to connect on a deep level. This advises are pure gold, even if you are not in debt.
“A budget is there to find the ‘Yes’ in the safest way possible” is exactly what I needed to hear today. Love it! Thank you both for sharing this convo. I’m so pleased to hear two women talking finance. I never saw that growing up, it was always about depending on a man and now my man is burnt out from over working and I feel it’s my turn to step it up and find our “Yes”. Thank you!
Mel, I just want to say thank you. I’m wiping tears as I’m writing this and I thought I had to let you know that this episode resonated so much with me. Yes, I do my dishes at night as a gift to myself in the morning, I give myself a high five in the mirror when I remember. As a single mom of three, building a baking business from my small kitchen during covid, with three kids under 9 at home, now getting to be in a brick and mortar, money was always a topic I would put aside in my brain for ‘later’. And you’re right, no one is coming, I have to do it for myself and my kids! So slowly, I will be making that list tonight and facing the money music.
This message blessed me.
I am one of those women who lost the love of my life at age 61, and also lost about everything financially when he passed. We were not prepared for a major event and were just hanging on, paycheck to paycheck. We were so happy together and thought there would be time to get our finances together. Its been 5 years now and i am hanging in there, still have my house, working 2 jobs, worried about ever being able to retire. I love what I've learned in this video and just love Tiffany. I will get her book and follow her blog. She's given me hope (and more than a few tears with that ending). Thanks so much for the inspiration, Mel and Tiffany 💕
OMG Budgetnista and Mel together?!!! Yes! You both have been helping me gain power back in my life... So excited to watch!
When you don’t understand money and you are scared about where you are, it’s clouds everything that’s important.
And you spend all of your emotional energy in that shame and you are not present in your life ❤️
Thank you so much Mel & Tiffany.
Thank you for discussing the idea of ENOUGH! My partner also passed a couple years ago, my daughter had a TBI, two of my kids were severely abused - success for me is being able to care for my kids so that they feel loved and cared for. That’s having a clean warm place to live, eating and moving well and TIME TOGETHER.
This is my first time listening to her and she just mentioned every strategy i use and share with friends, just wow! it was amazing listening to this, anyone doubting should know that it works because i am a living proof.
Thank you so much for having Tiffany. She is such a light. I know she missed her late husband so very much. He touched our lives through her as well ❤
Wow! I am blown away and emotional in a good way... I woke up to this and got up even if it was 4:30AM. I started declutering my office while listening. Lol don't ask... just felt right. I have also gone through financial hardship supporting someone dear to me with mental health issues for 24 years of my life. I am finally out of it but wished I had know about this 7 years ago. Even if I got out of the financial whole I was in, I am not great with money. I make ok money for the middle class here in Canada sonI know I need to manage and budget better. You can bet on me re-watching this again and putting it to practice. You two took my anxiety related to money away. Wow! What a relief. Thank you and have an amazing healthy and happy day.

I can’t believe how empowering Tiffany is like what you said, in the first 5 mins of this podcast I made a list and set up an auto payment to my credit cards. THANK YOU for giving your viewers a hope to rise up from debts.
I cried with these ladies. You need to listen to the end. I love you Mel and Tiffany. I am sharing this with my love ones. The best podcast ever ❤
Thank you for your vulnerability, Tiffany.
You didn't bring the energy down. You needed to let that out. Someone was listening that was dealing with the same loss, and you blessed them. They cried with you.
Bless you and your family.
Did not think a finance talk would have me in tears. Thank you so much for sharing . This was truly helpful. Thank you Tiffany!
My favorite episode of all time! I laughed, I cried, and the ending! No actual human words! Tiffany’s honesty and vulnerability slapped! I mean… wow! She took my literal breath away! Thank you both for being so real for us! We love you both and appreciate you sharing all the things with us!!! ❤
They didn’t see my value, I didn’t see my value!!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 please make sure watch all the video, God bless all of you and thanks Mel and Tiffany❤
The budgetnista helped me tremendously just by watching her interviews. When I was laid off, my credit was good with very low balances, I had money saved and I was living beneath my means. Things still got challenging but if I didn’t learn money basics things would’ve been worse. Thank God ❤
Such a powerful podcast. I've been watching throughout the day, rewatching parts, making notes etc. I've learned so much and excited about making those much needed shifts in my mindset and processes to make the most of my money.
Thank you so much both of you beautiful ladies, honestly I've just got so much gratitude for you both. 💛 🙏🏼✨️
WOW ! This ranks as one my faves of your podcasts ! I'm rebuilding after a divorce. Bless both of you for being so transparent. Wonderful really wonderful !
Amen 🙏🏾
So powerfully informative. You both are my new cyber friends!
Thank you Mel for proving a safe place to talk about finance, to grief talk. All good topics people shy away from.
Tiffany, thank you!! Great points from $, to self care, to family and what really matters. My condolences, my heart goes out to you. I lost mom at an early age. Money has been front and center. Along with grief. YOU LIFTED OUR ENERGY. Please never apologize for speaking your truth.
Whoa! What a great guest! I'm so impressed. This was the best budgeting talk I've ever heard.
Tiffany's eyes are sparkling! she is so optimistic! I love her!
Tiffany, you’ve yet to show up without blessing everyone around. Thank you for being you-Showing up as your full self, being transparent and helping others selflessly yet intentionally. Mel said it best-YOU ARE SUCH A BLESSING Sis! ❤❤❤
Add this to your “Go Me” folder-you’re a GEM! 💎❤
Thank you Mel for inviting Tiffany for the podcast. Tiffany, the Lord continue to strengthen and comfort you for the loss of your husband. Keep shining ladies, grateful for you both ❤
Tiffany's friend Lisa is my friend Mary! We all need that friend that helps with perspective.... loving this podcast! ❤
🎉thank you so much dear girls..greatly appreciative...thumbs up
So I’m cruising through Walmart picking up some things that I needed then I walked over to the book section which I never ever do and I was like I wonder if anything’s gonna call out to me… Her book caught my eye ..I purchased it and told myself I was going to utilize it. This morning when I woke up and opened TH-cam to find some motivational type conversation this channel popped up, which I’ve never watch before with the interview featuring her. this is a great interview and I’m just grateful to the universe for always guiding my steps.
What an amazing…and empowering…episode! I suspect that I’m not the only one, but I had to dry my eyes before I could hop on here to comment. 😉 Tiffany taught me more than I had anticipated, WHILE learning that I have a natural aptitude for living a well-budgeted life. Who knew?!? For about 20yrs, I’ve kept separate accounts...exactly as advised here. (I’m also a former teacher!)
Presently, I’m unemployed and jobhunting...and know that so many of us are in this financially stressful position. This episode reminded me to BREATHE through it all. #om
Thank you, Mel & Tiffany, for guiding us through life. You are both doing SO much good in this world. ❤
Wishing everyone a day of GOOD THINGS!
Wow. Amazing interview. Thanks guys. I needed this. TIFFANY you are beautiful. Mel thanks ❤❤❤
I was touched by you my sister. Please stay strong and remember all of the best times you spent together with your husband.
This episode is SO important. I am the budgeter of our family, always have been. Excel spreadsheets, all of it. This changed my perspective on all of it and I will begin to implement this work into my budgeting practice. Already working on my lists and will certainly be using this “Snowball Method” moving forward. Love to all. ❤️
Tiffany, God is all over you.. Youre a blessing to others. Keep going. Stay true to you ❤❤❤
You always know what I need to hear, and when I need it, Mel. If noone has told YOU today, I love you and I appreciate you. Have a wonderful day. Thank you for all you do ❤
What a Brilliant Segment on Budgeting, Smart Credit Strategies and Survival in the midst of Grief. Your speaker was poignant in her delivery of money matters. Our hearts go out to her on the 2 year anniversary of her husband's Demise. May God continue to bless her steps and keep her focused on the future ahead ❤
Getting to the end was worth every second that built up to it. I loved it so much!! Thank you Tiffany for sharing your grief. ❤ it was so beautiful to see how you have handled it. Thank you for acknowledging it and discussing it on this open forum. It really is seen appreciated.
The biggest lesson in this entire podcast was at the end. The lesson learned from her husband’s passing is priceless. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I love all of your episodes but this one was far more special than I could ever have anticipated. The end about her husband was such a powerful reminder of what really matters in life. Thank you both!
I am crying 😭 (the end)
I enjoyed all of the valuable advise; from Thursday family financial meetings, confronting the fear of opening bills, having the support of a friend/community.. all of this financial empowerment to ALLOW a meaningful life with our loved ones. I feel inspired, determined and touched by this episode. Thank you ladies for changing lives. ❤🌏
There have been many wonderful Mel Robbins episodes - but this one is my favorite ever. Thank you both!
This was one of the best interviews I’ve ever watched. I’ve taken 4 pages of notes. And I cried at the end with you. Thank you for sharing your life experience with your loving husband. You’ve inspired me financially and emotionally ❤❤❤
I don't know why I decided to put on this episode, it had been on my pending list. I am so glad I did. Mel I've listen to some time, in my head, she is one of my home girls but first time listening to Tiffany Aliche. I am going through so much she is talking about and I am so glad these two talk about how shameful and scary debt can be when you are in it. It most definitely clouds you but lately I am finally clearing those skies and just going, going, going. I feel watching this video was another "keep going". Adore these ladies, the message and educating people on money and their relationship with it. Most of all, I love that Mel always ends all her messages with "I love you".
Just started listening. I will listen to the end. I have been a single mother my entire life been in relationships, but I am the only provider for my son who is now 28 and of course he provides for himself at this point… Paying yourself First has always been something that’s been taught for a very, very long time.
Sadly, I’m still at a point where I don’t pay myself first I pay my bills and if I’m lucky I have some money for groceries and such.
I am a septic shock survivor, and my cognitive/memory skills and physical limitations and auto immune diseases have limited my ability to work
I was once a teacher and can no longer continue in that path. I’m excited to listen to the podcast in full and get inspiration.🙏🏻💛 Oh my goodness I have a “stack” as well😂
Words cannot describe just how powerful this episode is.
I have felt shame for my financial situation over the past few years. I have kept it hidden and put on a brave face. The realness of this episode has helped me move into a place of acceptance and empowerment.
Thank you, thank you, thank you ♥️
I love you ❤
I have to say that I ran across Tiffany a few years ago and I didn't listen to anything cuz I read a negative comment that said everybody can't live on their friends or family's couches to get ahead and then I disregarded anything. After listening to this podcast I truly feel like it has changed my perspective. Because change of perspective you change your life. I also sent this podcast to all of my children today marks the beginning of a complete turnaround
This episode touched me so much. I got a lot out of it with regards to the financial information. I’m so empowered by this show on a regular basis, but today… the authenticity about each of your mistakes and where you are now, and then, Tiffany talking so authentically at the end about her loss and the reason why caring for your money is so important and how you make your loved ones a priority being even more important. Wow. Just wow. Two amazing women inspiring the world through information communicated with heart. Thank you. This episode is a gift.
This podcast was the answer to my 3AM prayer last night. THANK YOU both!
Hands down one of your best episodes ever. Brava to both ladies!
I’m new to the Mel Robbins world of podcasts and this one has convinced me I should never miss another one. Fantastic information and wow! What an emotional connection.
So much good advice. I cried with you at the end. My husband was sick for many years and I was able to make adjustments so that the loss of him would not financially crush us. I still miss him every day, but my son and I have been able to take the time to grieve because I took steps to make sure we could survive. I will be using many of Tiffany's mindset shifts to take myself to the next financial level. Thank you.
This was AMAZING!! The realism at the end brought it all together. Life. Relationships. Meaningfulness.
Oh my, what a blessing this podcast has been. I’ve got hope. I too am a widow and he died leaving everything paid off for me. I’ve spent money as I’ve grieved and now I have a mortgage and credit card debt. Thank you for giving me hope.
what an amazing human. the spirituality part of it at the end, and the personal story Tiffany shared really resonates with me. I'm very grateful for this episode!
Thank you God for these two women and this message. Watch to the end! This message will change your life.🙏🏽❤️😘
NOT A DRY EYE IN THIS AUDIENCE!!!😭
THANK YOU….♥️♥️
Watching this video late night, working to save my business, and yet the last 15 minutes of my life has been a blur. Tiffany's brilliant advice is simple and practical, and I'm so glad that I watched this all the way through.
I love Tiffany...... she's wholesome and has been through a lot. I celebrate you and the rest of the listeners, ladies. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤
The end of this podcast is so pure of love and transparency, I loved it so much, learned so much, cried so much. Its more than just money...
Absolutely the best podcast that I've heard in a very long time. Thank you for this great information!
Literally put this video on hold and called my bank to see how I can split my money from self employed payments! Thank you Mel for sharing your angst with money! I admire you so much and this conversation is just giving me peace ❤ 💰
Best interview ever. I always love your podcasts, but I love her and her energy and message!
Honest UK feedback: The ‘it’s your friend Mel’ grates a bit. But it’s worth it as your interviews are great and so helpful. x
Sooo excited about this one! 🎉 let me get my notebook out 🤓 Thanks Mel! ❤
WOW!!! 😢❤😢❤ This was so empowering. Thank you two ladies for the open honesty. This was such a wonderful course in 1 1/2 hours. Tiffany you touched my heart so much throughout and then when you opened up about your amazing husband I broke down. 😭😭 I am typing through tears. Seriously! I feel your hurt and how much you miss him. I have one of those amazing men too. Just amazing and I want to help more to help him care for us. This debt is a beast especially since I had an accident that threw us through a financial tsunami!That 3 month cushion is no longer soft. It’s hard out here. We really need your help. I am going to look you up to book a call or consultation or something. I pray your peace and healing every day❤. Thanks Ladies!
Tiffany is a gift, thank you.
what a wholesome, healthy discussion for the everyday man to be intentional about money acquisition and mastery, Thanks Mel and Tiffany
.
So, I've listened to this TWICE. My favorite podcast to. the. end. When it was over, I thought "Girls Trip!" I realize that's a long shot because you don't know me. LOL God bless you both. (And, Tiffany, you loved your husband so well here. You really honored him. Well done.)
You are both a gift to me. THANK YOU both! I became a widow 14 years ago. My hubby was killed by a drunk, drugged driver who wanted to commit suicide. So he crossed the center line and they both died. The guy had very little insurance, and absolutely nothing of his own. I went from a 2 income to 1 income in a split second.
❤My heart goes out to you, Tiffany, in the loss of your beloved husband. I am a “grey divorce” survivor-married 30 years, together 35, until his narcissism really took hold and then took everything from me. I’m 68, a clerical worker background but had to take a retail job when I was scammed out of my “home sale” money - my life savings. Now I’m $30,000 in debt, my retail store job went backrupt and it’s harder for me to find employment. Do you have any tips for senior workers??? I need a job to pay down my debt. God bless you and anyone who has any suggestions for me and others like me. You are a Godsend, Mel - thank you from my heart 💗🌷💗🌷💗🌷💗
Try making money on social media becoming a social media influencer. Take your talents and skills and display it in the internet on TH-cam and Tik-Tok etc. get a younger person to help set up a social media account or platform for you and make money off TH-cam and Tik Tok. I think that would work out best for you as a senior, especially If the job market is trying to age you out. Social media won’t. Take one of your ideas or skills, open a social media platform, build an audience and make some money. The internet is your best bet to pay off that debt and make money.
Oh, precious Tiffany! I'm so glad i came across this video. I've seen so many things about her and budgeting but never got to see this side of her, and I'm really sorry for her loss. Love her even more!
Wow. Not only was the financial advice she gave beautiful but the last minutes of this video give such a powerful feeling and message. Must watch! One of my favorite Mel podcasts…
Tiffany, I knew I found this episode for a reason today. I needed the help with money, but I also needed to hear from someone who shares my experience of losing their romantic partner (physical loss, anyway) and who knows how to center what is really important. Thank you for all that you do. Mel, thank you for having such amazing content for us. We need you.
This was an absolutely wonderful episode for so many reasons . Thank you Mel for and Tiffany for opening my eyes not only to the importance of debt, budgeting and saving but making me aware that Money doesn't equal love or happiness,. Time is so precious !
