It’s the most wonderful (and spendy) time of year — but is Black Friday saving you money or costing you peace of mind? Jessica Moorhouse returns to break down the psychological tricks behind seasonal shopping, revealing how marketing taps into your emotions to fuel overspending.

From abandoned Amazon carts to free shipping thresholds, discover the behavioral economics behind why that third item always ends up in your basket. Jessica shares real tactics to resist the urge, build mindful money habits, and reset how we think about spending during the holidays.

Learn what retailers don’t want you to know — and how to protect your wallet from impulse and illusion.

Money stress is real — and most people don’t want to know the truth about their finances. Alison Howard from ABC Life Literacy Canada joins to explain why financial literacy isn’t about shame — it’s about starting where you are, no matter what.

In this episode, they talk about how fear and avoidance stop people from opening their bills, asking questions, or even realizing they’re paying avoidable bank fees. Alison introduces Money Matters, a national program designed to help adults build money confidence at a pace that works for them. Written at a Grade 6–8 level and free to access online or in-person, it’s a simple, judgment-free way to begin.

The key? Replace “budget” with “spending plan” — and take control without the guilt.
