UnF*ck Your Money
Money isn’t just math.
It’s fear. Control. Safety. Worth. Power. And your nervous system knows it.
Unfuck Your Money is a no-BS, nervous-system-informed podcast for high-functioning women who are great at holding it together, yet secretly tired of bracing their way through life.
I’m Nadine. I’m not here to teach you budgets or tell you to “heal your trauma.”
I’m here to help you understand why your body reacts the way it does to money, boundaries, rest, joy, relationships, and choice.
On this podcast, we talk about:
- How money can be a safety strategy
- why responsible people struggle with ease
- over-functioning, burnout, and being “the capable one”
- boundaries that actually feel possible
- pleasure without guilt
- joy without toxic positivity
- building capacity on a nervous system level, instead of fixing yourself
This isn’t hustle culture.
It’s not toxic positivity.
And it’s definitely not “just think differently.”
It’s about learning how to feel safe enough to live a full, joyful life, money included.
If you’re done surviving…
Welcome. I hope you enjoy the show!

Paying Off $40K of Debt AND Saving $26K w/ Katie Pijanowski
In this episode, we welcome back my friend and beloved client Katie Pijanowski!
Katie goes into detail about her journey of overcoming debt and changing her mindset around money.
Katie shares how she accumulated $68,000 of consumer debt and the challenges she faced in her relationship with money. With coaching and healing her relationship with money, Katie was able to stick with strategies such as the snowball method and zero-interest balance transfers to pay off her debt.
Katie also shares about her experience with a common pitfall that I see with everyone who is on a debt payoff journey and how she navigated her way around it.
Katie also shares about her seemingly counterintuitive decision to hire a money coach while paying off debt, and how money healing had many benefits to accelerate her journey and start earning (and keeping) more money.
Towards the end, Katie and I debunk the stigma around debt and credit cards, and talk about healing debt shame.
Episode Takeaways:
- Accumulating debt can be a result of misconceptions and unhealthy advice from the coaching industry.
- How Debt can create emotional heaviness that can have impacts on paying it off, and not accumulating it again.
