Welcome to Empowered Spender!

​

A Self-Paced Course to Stop Letting Overspending Hijack Your Life, Your Bank Account, and Your Dreams

You work hard to make money.

​

But every time you build a little momentum…

​

It leaks out of your life in Amazon boxes, Target runs, Sephora hauls, and Uber Eats receipts.

 

And afterward? The crash. The guilt. The "WTF was I thinking?!" spirals that are so painfully real. 

 

That's not a lack of discipline.

​

That’s not because you’re “bad with money” and need another book, app or podcast to learn more about managing it. 

 

You overspend because your nervous system reacting from survival mode...

​

You overspend because of your people pleasing tendencies, and because you crave rest, play, and a feeling of security and a sense of agency. 

​

And until you rewire the root cause, overspending will keep running the show, and it will keep robbing you blind!

Emotional Spending isn’t just a cute, socially acceptable “bad habit.”

Overspending is:

    •    A protest when your needs go unmet.

    •    A self-soothing mechanism when life feels unbearable.

    •    A dopamine hit when you’re bored, angry, scared, or lonely.

    •    A nervous system stuck in survival mode.

​

Everytime you swipe your card is your body screaming for relief.

​

It comes, but it only lasts a few moments. The regret lasts much, much longer.

​

If you do nothing?

 

This cycle doesn’t “get better” with time.

It deepens.

 

⚠️ You’ll burn through money you could have invested, saved, or used to build actual freedom.

⚠️ You’ll lose self-trust, which means money will always feel unsafe in your hands.

⚠️ You’ll keep trading long-term peace for short-term highs.

 

And then one day… you’ll look back at your account and see a pile of stuff instead of a life you love.

​

As a Somatic Practitioner and a Trauma Informed Financial Empowerment Coach, I will lay it out for you straight:

​

You don’t need a tighter budget.

​

Money is your protest, your painkiller, your thrill, your way of belonging. And until you learn what’s underneath the spending, nothing will stick.

​​

This isn’t another budgeting hack! We’re not slapping another boring, restrictive budget that will do more harm than good to your nervous system.

What You’ll Learn to Do Inside This Course:

Lesson 1

Emotional Spending 101

Build a Financially Safe Nervous System

You will learn:

  • How your nervous system drives your financial habits: fight, flight, freeze, fawn in action with money.

  • How you can start trusting yourself with money again. 

  • What emotional spending really is

  • How to shift out of shame, stop blaming yourself and start working with your body through somatic exercises that will help you scratch the chronic spending itch without actually needing to spend.

You’ll learn:

  • How unmet childhood needs morph into adult money chaos.

  • What your core needs actually are, and how they get tangled up with money.

  • Why spending becomes your nervous system’s fastest survival strategy

  • How to meet your core needs over and over again to break free from this cycle

Lesson 3

How to Heal Emotional Spending

​

You’ll explore:

  • The five protector parts that drive emotional spending:
    The Prover, The Player, The Painkiller, The Punisher, and The Pleaser.

  • What each protector believes about you and money. 

  • How to work with these parts so they no longer hijack your wallet.

Lesson 4

Lesson 5

Creating Financial Safety

Our goal here isn’t restriction.

It’s expansion. 

​

​Learn how to feel more capable, confident, and in control of your money. This can mean more savings, less debt, feeling good about planning your future, and using your money to help you grow.

​

In lesson 5, you’ll learn:

  • How to stop outsourcing your worth and wellbeing to money.

  • How to set up a flexible cash flow system that boosts your net worth without restricting your joy.​

This isn’t about judging your online shopping cart.

It’s about healing what’s underneath it so your power, your money, and your nervous system are finally on the same team.

You’re not a mess.

​

Imagine this instead:

 

✅ You look at your bank account and feel proud. The panic you used to feel is long gone!

✅ You buy things you actually love, with zero guilt, shame, or second guessing.

✅ You stop “budgeting and blowing it” because you don’t need budgets to feel safe anymore.

✅ You finally start saving, investing, and enjoying money and feel good because you can finally trust yourself.

Don't wait. 

 

Every day you wait…is another day your protector parts swipe away your future.

Then you face another cycle of shame, guilt, and regret. Then another month of debt growing instead of wealth.

 

You can keep saying “I’ll deal with it later.”

Or you can deal with it now, and actually start building the life you want.

 

Later won’t feel easier.

​

It’ll just cost more.

​

The Investment:

Instead of bleeding out thousands a year to Amazon, Sephora, Target, and Uber Eats, you can break the cycle today for just $128 USD.

Hi, I’m Nadine… and I know emotional spending from the inside out.

When I first started my business, I overspent $45,000 on books, marketing programs and fancy clothes. 

​

On the surface, it looked like poor financial discipline, but what was happening underneath  was chasing validation, security, and freedom. 

 

My money protector parts. They were running the show:

  • The Prover was buying courses to prove I was capable.
     

  • The Pleaser kept investing in things to win approval.
     

  • The Painkiller swiped my card to numb the fear of failing.
     

  • The Punisher slammed me into strict, joyless budgets after every splurge

I wasn’t reckless. I was trying very hard to find certainty and prove my credibility and my worth as a new coach. 

​

When I looked at my profit and loss report at the end of the year, my heart sank to my feet. I barely made a $500 profit even though my income was high. 

​

I was struck by both fear and grief. I cannot allow myself to do this again. 

​

So I worked on healing what was lying beneath my chronic overspending. It was unmet core needs, and a very dysregulated nervous system.

​

Once I learned how to meet my core needs directly (instead of outsourcing them to money), things started to change. 

​

I am finally able to save more, travel more, I justbought a house and I am putting away money for my future. 

​

Now, I help emotional spenders from all over the world and all walks of life, reclaim their power from emotional spending through my financial healing methods that are nervous system–based, trauma-informed, and actually sustainable and highly effective!
