| Why Money Feels So Stressful: The Nervous System Connection | Generational Financial Beliefs Pt. 3 | 23 Jun 2026 | 00:22:56 | |
Welcome back to Tea Time with Erin, where we share honest conversations about entrepreneurship, money, mental health, and the stories that shape the way we build our businesses and lives. In this episode, Erin continues Part 3 of her four-part series on generational financial beliefs by exploring the connection between money and the nervous system. While previous episodes focused on where financial beliefs come from and how they impact paying yourself, this conversation shifts into the body and examines why financial decisions can feel so emotionally charged. Erin explains how our nervous systems often respond to money before our conscious minds have a chance to think. From the knot in your stomach when you open your bank account to the tension that shows up when it's time to pay yourself, these reactions are often rooted in old experiences, inherited beliefs, and generational patterns rather than your current financial reality. Through neuroscience, nervous system regulation, and practical body-based tools, Erin introduces the first two steps of her GLOW Framework—Ground and Lift—and shares how entrepreneurs can begin creating safety around money so they can make financial decisions from a calmer, more empowered place.

| Generational Financial Beliefs Part 2: Why Paying Yourself Triggers Fear, Guilt & Stress | 26 May 2026 | 00:29:24 | |
Welcome back to Tea Time with Erin, where we share honest conversations about entrepreneurship, money, mental health, and the stories shaping the way we build our businesses and lives. In part two of Erin’s four-part series on generational financial beliefs, Erin dives into one of the most emotionally charged topics for women entrepreneurs: paying yourself. Why is it so difficult to move money from your business account into your personal account—even when the numbers say you can? This episode explores the hidden emotional and behavioral patterns that impact how entrepreneurs handle money, especially first-generation wealth builders. Erin breaks down two major patterns she sees constantly in her work with women business owners: economic mobility guilt and the absence of financial modeling. Together, these patterns create hesitation, shame, confusion, and fear around taking profit, paying yourself consistently, and building personal wealth through business ownership. Erin also shares personal stories, client examples, and practical insight into how childhood experiences, family systems, and generational money beliefs continue showing up in entrepreneurship today. From inherited scarcity mindsets to never being taught how to read a P&L statement, this episode helps listeners understand why financial decisions can feel so emotionally heavy—and why awareness is the first step toward change. If you’ve ever avoided looking at your finances, felt guilty paying yourself, struggled with profit, or questioned whether you deserve to make more money, this conversation will likely hit close to home.

| Generational Financial Beliefs (Part 1): Where Your Money Story Begins | 28 Apr 2026 | 00:25:14 | |
In this episode of Tea Time with Erin, Erin begins a powerful new series on generational financial beliefs—unpacking how our earliest experiences with money shape the way we think, feel, and behave financially as adults and entrepreneurs. This Part 1 conversation focuses on where these beliefs come from and how they are passed down through families, culture, and lived experiences—often without us even realizing it.

From scarcity and fear to control and avoidance, these patterns are often inherited, not chosen. If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, “Why do I feel this way about money?”—this episode helps you start connecting the dots.

In this episode of Tea Time with Erin, Erin sits down with Aimee Puglisi for a real, honest conversation about entrepreneurship, motherhood, and what it looks like to build a business through life transitions. Aimee shares her journey from Ireland to Scotland and eventually the United States during COVID. After stepping into a corporate job for the first time, she quickly realized the traditional 9–5 didn’t align with the life she wanted—especially as she entered motherhood and a blended family. That realization led her into entrepreneurship, where she built a virtual assistant business supporting women entrepreneurs with social media, while also growing a second business in health and wellness. She opens up about inconsistent income, balancing roles, and redefining success in a season that requires flexibility and grace. Erin and Aimee also dive into how childhood money beliefs shape how we approach finances—from scarcity and strict budgeting to more intuitive approaches—and how those patterns show up in marriage, parenting, and business. This episode is a reminder that building a business as a mom isn’t about doing everything perfectly—it’s about aligning your life, values, and finances with your current season.

| What My Business Numbers Revealed That My Feelings Didn’t | 31 Mar 2026 | 00:41:32 | |
Welcome back to Tea Time with Erin, where we share real, honest conversations about money, mental health, and entrepreneurship. In this episode, Erin sits down with filmmaker and entrepreneur Elisa Trentham of Sherwood Media for a deeply insightful conversation about the relationship between feelings and financial data in business—and why so many entrepreneurs rely on emotion instead of numbers to make decisions. Elisa shares what happened when she finally sat down and looked at her profit and loss statement after years of running her business based mostly on how things felt. What she discovered surprised her—and completely shifted how she views success, growth, and her financial story. Together, Erin and Elisa explore the emotional side of entrepreneurship, including financial shame, comparison, uncertainty, and the tension of being in a season of transition. They also dive into how numbers can actually ground you, tell a more accurate story than your feelings, and help you make clearer, more confident decisions in your business. This episode is a powerful reminder that your financial story is not always what it feels like—and learning to look at your numbers can change everything. In This Episode, You’ll Hear:

| The Real Reason Entrepreneurs Avoid Their Finances | 17 Mar 2026 | 00:27:41 | |
In this episode of Tea Time with Erin, Erin explores one of the most powerful — and often invisible — forces shaping the financial decisions entrepreneurs make: money scripts. Money scripts are unconscious beliefs about money formed in childhood that we carry into adulthood. These beliefs influence how we earn, spend, save, and think about money — often without realizing it. For entrepreneurs, these hidden beliefs can quietly drive business decisions, affect pricing, influence spending habits, and even sabotage financial success. Erin explains how these beliefs develop early in life, often before age ten, and are commonly passed down through families and culture. She walks through the four core money scripts identified by financial psychologist Dr. Brad Klontz, explaining how each shapes financial behavior and shows up in entrepreneurship. If you’ve ever wondered why you avoid your finances, undercharge for services, overspend on business investments, or feel anxious about money even when your business is doing well, the answer may lie in the money scripts running beneath the surface. This episode introduces a framework for understanding your financial behaviors and offers practical steps for identifying and rewriting beliefs that may be holding your business back. In This Episode, You’ll Hear: • What money scripts are and how they influence financial decisions Key Takeaways • Many financial behaviors are driven by unconscious beliefs formed in childhood.

| Six Years Later: Why She Closed the Business She Loved | 17 Mar 2026 | 00:40:04 | |
In this episode of Tea Time with Erin, Erin sits down with entrepreneurial strategist Erika Biddix for an honest conversation about entrepreneurship, financial reality, and what it looks like to pivot a business as life changes. Erika shares her journey from corporate meeting and event planning into entrepreneurship, where she launched her own agency and later created Aught, a coworking and community space for women entrepreneurs. What began as a simple workspace quickly became a community helping women build businesses and navigate entrepreneurship. But entrepreneurship rarely follows a straight line. Six years after opening Aught, Erika makes the difficult decision to close the coworking space and the Aught brand to simplify her life, support her family, and enter a new season of entrepreneurship. In this conversation, Erin and Erika talk openly about the emotional and financial realities of that decision—including grief, pride, relief, and the challenge of letting go. They also discuss the financial side of entrepreneurship that rarely gets talked about publicly: cash flow struggles, bootstrapping a business, recovering from financial loss after COVID, and making hard decisions for long-term sustainability. This episode is a reminder that business success doesn’t always mean scaling forever. Sometimes success means pivoting, simplifying, and building a business that supports your life. In This Episode, You’ll Hear: • The story behind Erika’s transition from corporate event planning to entrepreneurship Key Takeaways • Entrepreneurship often requires constant pivoting as life changes.
