Have you ever felt like no matter how much money you make, you’re still one wrong move away from it all collapsing? That’s survival mode—and it’s exhausting. In this episode, Taryn T-Money$ Ferrer unpacks how survival mode shows up in your finances, why it’s not just about money systems, and how to shift into wealth mode where your money feels safe, supportive, and abundant.

Tune in to hear:

• The real signs of financial survival mode (and how they sneak up even on high earners).
• Why fear—not spreadsheets—is often the hidden block keeping you stuck.
• How Taryn moved from fear-based decisions after a $100,000 loss into a bold, aligned wealth mindset.
• Client stories of breaking subconscious money patterns and steadily building wealth with confidence.

Ever wonder what happens when you finally bet big on yourself – and it actually pays off?

In this special bonus episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on three pivotal moments this summer that completely shifted my trajectory. I'm sharing the real story behind landing a $50,000 grant (including the mindset work that made it possible), giving you an unfiltered recap of the Rich Bi$h Retreat that had participants making life-changing commitments before they even left, and getting honest about why taking an entire month off was the smartest business move I've made yet.

Key takeaways from this episode:

• The grant aftermath: How I found out I won and the opportunities that have followed
• Retreat revelations: What actually creates transformation in a room full of ambitious women and why investing in experiences pays dividends beyond the event
• The power of the pause: Why stepping away from your business doesn't mean stepping back from your goals – and how rest became my secret weapon
• Betting on yourself: The internal shifts that have to happen before external wins show up, and why playing small serves no one
