Money is Not Your Problem
If you've ever said "I'm just bad with money" — this podcast is for you.
Money Is Not Your Problem is for capable, hardworking women who are tired of starting over, avoiding their numbers, and wondering why nothing seems to stick. The truth is, financial struggle rarely comes down to math. It comes down to patterns, beliefs, and the stories we carry about what we deserve or what's even possible for us.
Each episode gives you something real: a financial concept explained simply, a mindset shift worth sitting with, and a practical step you can take before the week is out.
I'm Madeleine Strasburg — Financial and Life Coach, former math teacher, and founder of Strasburg Coaching. With a Master of Education, over 20 years of teaching personal finance, and certifications from Ramsey Solutions and The Life Coach School, I've worked with women at every stage of the financial journey. I know what it looks like to be smart and responsible yet still feel completely stuck with money.
This podcast is built on one core belief: money management is a learnable skill. Not a personality trait. Not a moral score. A skill — and you can build it.

Ep.41 ➡️💥 Retrain Your Negative Biased Brain for Financial Gains Today!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you noticed how much easier ( and more automatic) it is to see what others do wrong or to complain ( about the weather, work, the kids, the spouse, etc.) instead of complimenting or sharing the good about a situation or person? No, it does not mean you are a horrible person, but that you are normal.
In this episode, we explore the concept of negative bias—our brain’s natural tendency to focus more on the bad than the good—how it shows up in our financial lives, and how you can retrain your brain to see more of the good to support your financial journey.
🔑 Key Highlights:
- Three thought errors keeping you stuck financially: “I’m bad with money,” “I need to earn more to save,” and “Budgeting is stressful.”
- Biblical wisdom and mindset shifts to replace scarcity with spiritual confidence and clarity.
- A simple visual exercise using your photo gallery to rewire your brain for gratitude and progress.
Whether you're battling thought patterns like “I’ll never be good with money” or need a reminder that your past doesn’t define your future, this episode will inspire you to take control and transform your financial mindset.
