Episode Summary
Happy Halloween, $HMONEY hunnies! 👻
You're in for a vulnerable and insightful chat with founder, influencer, financial educator and advocate, Ellyce Fulmore.
When Ellyce started her financial journey, she had just $60 in her pocket and $35,000 in debt. In all attempts to improve her situation, following cookie-cutter solutions that didn't speak to her unique lifestyle got her nowhere. But through trial and error, she came up with Queerd Co.: a haven and resource filled with money strategies, tools, and resources that didn't force folks to reject pieces of their identity to succeed.
Ellyce has always believed the problem with so much of traditional finance education is that it doesn't consider who you are as a person. So, in this episode, we discuss:
Her money story
How venturing down the physiotherapy path and simultaneously hitting her financial rock bottom served as a wake-up call
The influence our personalities have on our money behaviours
Starting Queerd Co.
How being neurodivergent impacts money stories
The "dopamine deficiency" and how to add some back into your money system
Her signature "Neuro$picy Money Method" and shame-free, trauma-informed approach
Lifestyle changes she's made to alleviate daily stressors and help manage her money and well-being as someone living with ADHD
Her personal five-account banking system
The importance of intersectionality in everyone's money story and ability to build wealth
Her first book, Keeping Finance Personal
Voting with your dollars (practicing values-based spending) under capitalism
A scary-fun rapid-fire round
And more!
