Creating Financial Alignment and Embracing “Good Enough” with Shannon Wilkinson
In this episode, our guest Shannon Wilkinson and I dive into the transformative power of aligning finances with personal values and overcoming perfectionism. Shannon, a life coach with over two decades of experience, shares her journey from starting her career when "life coaching" wasn’t even a well-known term to becoming a specialist in helping others find clarity, confidence, and momentum in life. We explore how Shannon’s experiences with financial awareness, ADHD, and concussions shaped her coaching approach and led her to prioritize simplicity and “good enough” over perfection.
Throughout our conversation, Shannon shares the impact of using systems like YNAB (You Need A Budget) to manage money with intention and purpose. She discusses how avoiding money often leads to financial stress, and how consciously giving every dollar a job can bring freedom. Shannon also opens up about her personal journey with sensitivity, ADHD, and how these have influenced her work, enabling her to better understand and support her clients. From letting go of perfectionism to finding meaning in money management, this episode is packed with takeaways for anyone looking to create a life they love.
