433 | Girl, Love Don’t Cost A Thing: Releasing Financial Stress & Learning How to Stop Over-Giving in Relationships

In today’s episode, Tyra reflects on the financial stress she carried from past relationships and how it shaped her money habits. She shares honest stories from old romances where she often found herself as the provider, and how that mindset taught her lessons about boundaries, self-worth, and reclaiming control over her finances. This episode is about letting go of guilt, closing chapters that no longer serve you, and stepping into financial confidence.

This week’s Affirmation is: “I make financial choices that support my goals and well-being.”

3 Biggest Takeaways

1. Recognize how past relationships may have created unhealthy financial patterns, and that you can change them.
2. Financial sacrifice does not equal love—learning to set boundaries around money is an act of self-respect.
3. Letting go of guilt and old money stress makes space for confident, intentional financial choices that serve you.
