Goalchella:: Building stronger financial health in 2026 with Katie Kelton
Thu Feb 05 2026
Wellness isn’t just about workouts, nutrition, or sleep — it also includes financial health. In this Goalchella episode, we explore the softer side of wellness: building money habits that support your goals, reduce stress, and allow you to live a life aligned with your values.
We dive into practical strategies for improving your finances in the New Year, including budgeting, automating savings, and using high-yield accounts and investments to grow your money effortlessly. We also cover common pitfalls, from impulse shopping and carrying credit card debt to letting money drive your emotions, and share actionable tips for curbing these habits.
Beyond everyday habits, we discuss long-term planning for big life goals — weddings, honeymoons, homes, travel, and career investments — and how visualization and prioritization can help you align your money with your dreams. Whether you’re building financial literacy, saving for a future purpose, or simply looking for small tweaks that make a big difference, this episode equips you to approach money as a tool for wellness, not a measure of success.
