Plenty with Kate Northrup

What if your relationship with “enough” began before you were even born?

In this second episode of the Inheritance series, Kate Northrup explores the connection between the mother wound, the feminine, and money. She explains why our mother is our first economy—and how our earliest experiences of nurturing, presence, support, and flow can shape whether we feel there will ever truly be enough for us.

Kate shares her own story of growing up with a mother who modeled financial abundance while having limited time and emotional availability, and traces those patterns even further back throug...

What happens when the identity, work, and life you’ve built no longer fit who you’re becoming?

In this deeply personal conversation, Kate Northrup reunites with Regena Thomashauer—also known as Mama Gena—to explore the story behind her new book, On Our Knees, and the transformation that followed the end of a defining chapter in her life.

Regena shares how she went from being $250,000 in tax debt to growing her work from a living room of ten women into transformational experiences for thousands. But after sixteen years of running her Mastery program, an exhauste...

What if the life you want isn’t waiting for you somewhere in the future—it’s already available in the choices you’re making right now?

In this solo episode, Kate Northrup shares a summer life update and reflects on what it means to build a life around what truly matters. From choosing a simple staycation over an expensive getaway to returning to her hometown in Maine, Kate explores how slowing down can reveal the difference between what genuinely makes us feel abundant and what we’ve been conditioned to chase.

She shares the mantra “bl...

What if your most challenging relationships are also your greatest opportunity for healing?

In this deeply personal conversation, Kate Northrup sits down with relationship coach and author Stefanos Sifandos to explore how our romantic relationships become mirrors for the wounds, patterns, and beliefs we've carried since childhood. Together, they discuss why trauma is inherently relational, how polarity creates intimacy, and why true healing happens not in isolation, but through safe, connected relationships.

Stefanos opens up about his marriage to Christine Hassler, the transformative experience of becoming a father, and how parenting exposed perfectionism, control, and...

What if your relationship with money has less to do with discipline and more to do with the ways you learned to feel safe?

In this solo episode, Kate Northrup explores the surprising connection between father wounds, the nervous system, and financial behaviors. She explains why patterns like overspending, avoiding structure, or feeling overwhelmed by budgeting aren't personality flaws—they're often protective strategies rooted in childhood experiences.

Kate unpacks how our earliest relationships shape our capacity to receive support, provision, and stability, and why healing our relationship with money requires more than financial advice. Through pe...

What happens when you stop chasing success and start following what you believe you're being called to do?

In this conversation, Kate Northrup sits down with author and publisher Keira Brinton to explore the unconventional path that transformed her life—from panic attacks and financial uncertainty to building a thriving publishing company by trusting divine guidance. Keira shares how learning to release fear, follow intuitive nudges, and take bold action opened doors she never could have planned on her own.

Together, they discuss the relationship between spirituality and money, why collaboration creates more ab...

Most conversations about manifestation focus on changing your thoughts. But what if the real reason your affirmations aren't working has nothing to do with your mindset?

In this solo episode, Kate Northrup shares the missing piece she believes is absent from nearly every manifestation conversation: the body. Drawing on decades of studying manifestation—from listening to Abraham Hicks cassette tapes as a child to her work in neuroscience and nervous system regulation—Kate explains why lasting change doesn't come from thinking differently, but from feeling differently.

She explores why your nervous system dete...

What if manifestation isn't about trying harder—but about becoming more coherent?

In this expansive conversation, Kate sits down with meditation teacher and founder of Ziva Meditation, Emily Fletcher, to explore the relationship between meditation, manifestation, neuroscience, and what Emily calls "the field." Together, they unpack the idea that everything we create in the visible world begins in the unseen, and that the key to manifesting isn't forcing outcomes but aligning our minds, bodies, and nervous systems with what we truly desire.

Emily shares how a season of profound personal upheaval became the catalyst for a...

What if everything you've been taught about menopause is incomplete? 

In this special mother-daughter conversation, Kate sits down with her mom, Dr. Christiane Northrup, to unpack decades of research and clinical experience on hormones, aging, and women's health. Together, they explore why menopause is not a disease to fear, but a powerful biological transition that can support greater wisdom, vitality, and connection.

Dr. Northrup shares how her groundbreaking work challenged conventional medicine long before these conversations became mainstream, including her advocacy for bioidentical hormones, natural progesterone, and treating women as whole human beings r...

What if the reason your creative project is taking longer than expected isn’t because you’re doing it wrong—but because it’s changing you in the process?

In this deeply personal episode, Kate takes listeners behind the scenes of the book she has been writing for the past three years and the surprising lessons the process has taught her about identity, creativity, timing, and trust.

Reflecting on the journeys behind her previous books, Money: A Love Story and Do Less, Kate shares how different this experience has been. Unlike her earlier...

What happens when the thing consuming most of your time is producing the least amount of your results?

In this inspiring case study episode, Kate sits down with longtime entrepreneur, author, and women’s health educator Nicole Jardim to unpack a business breakthrough that completely changed the way she works, leads, and grows her company.

Nicole has spent more than a decade building a trusted brand helping women heal their periods and hormonal health. As the founder of Fix Your Period and the Institute for Menstrual Health, she has impacted thousands of women an...

What if the most important thing you do during a launch is absolutely nothing?

In this deeply personal behind-the-scenes episode, Kate shares the unexpected story of what happened during the final twenty-four hours of her biggest launch of the year—and why spending the last day lying on the couch reading a novel may have been the strategy all along.

After becoming physically ill the night before cart close, Kate found herself with no choice but to step away from the dashboards, the metrics, and the constant temptation to monitor results. Instead, she wa...

What actually makes an online business work today?

And why are so many entrepreneurs still struggling—even with more tools, AI, content, and strategies than ever before?

In this expansive and deeply honest conversation, Kate sits down with longtime entrepreneur and business educator James Wedmore to unpack the timeless principles behind sustainable online business growth, why most people overspend while under-learning, and what truly creates transformation in both business and life.

James shares the behind-the-scenes reality of spending five years building his business before seeing meaningful traction, the mindset shifts th...

Are online courses actually dead?

Or are most people simply building them in ways that no longer work?

In this solo episode, Kate pulls back the curtain on the behind-the-scenes numbers, strategy, emotional reality, and nervous system dynamics of her latest Relaxed Money launch—which crossed the $2 million mark at a time when many online business owners are panicking about the future of digital education.

But this episode is about far more than launch metrics.

Kate shares the real emotional experience of navigating fear, pressure, uncertainty, an...

What if success isn’t actually freedom?

And what if the business you built to give you more life slowly became the thing consuming it?

In this deeply honest conversation, Kate sits down with entrepreneur, author, and BossBabe founder Natalie Ellis to talk about ambition, motherhood, nervous system healing, identity, and what it really means to build a freedom-based business.

Natalie opens up about the hidden cost of chasing external validation, the pressure of maintaining a personal brand, and the surprising realization that even after “making it,” she still found hersel...

What if an investment could be both financially irrational… and deeply worth it?

In this episode, Mike Watts returns to Plenty for part two of our behind-the-scenes Airbnb series, where we pull back the curtain on the actual numbers behind our Maine short-term rental project.

And yes — technically, we’re currently underwater on it.

But this conversation isn’t just about profit margins or renovation budgets. It’s about the bigger picture of building freedom-based wealth, creating long-term assets, and making financial decisions that align with your values, your family, and the li...

What if the thing keeping you from receiving more money, love, or support isn't strategy — but how safe it feels to open your heart?

And what if worthiness isn't something you earn… but something you decide?

In this episode, I sit down with Suzy Ashworth for a conversation about receiving — money, love, visibility, support — and the courage it takes to stay openhearted in a world that can feel painful at times.

Suzy shares the winding path from creating the world's first online hypnobirthing program to becoming a leader in the conversa...

What if building a new stream of income didn't require perfection — just a willingness to learn as you go?

And what might open up if you let yourself experiment with money in a way that feels creative instead of rigid?

In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes with Mike as we share the real story of launching our first short-term rental property — what worked, what surprised us, and what we'd do differently.

We originally explored this path as a tax strategy, but it turned into something more: an oppo...

What if the feeling that there’s “not enough” isn’t actually true—but something you’ve been taught to believe?

And what might shift if your relationship with money became rooted in sufficiency instead of scarcity?

What if scarcity isn’t a reality—but a story we’ve all been living inside?

In this episode, I sit down with Lynne Twist and Sara Vetter for one of the most expansive conversations we’ve had on this podcast—about money, purpose, and what it means to create a different future for our planet.

...

What if your financial struggles weren’t about discipline or strategy—but about feeling safe in your body?

And what might change in your relationship if money no longer triggered fear, shame, or shutdown?

What if the path to more money — and more connection in your relationship — starts in your body?

In this episode, I sit down with Lizzie and Abe Langston to explore what it actually looks like to rebuild your financial life and your marriage from a place of healing, not pressure.

They share their story of...

Are you waiting for your partner to get on board before you fully step into your financial life?

What might shift if you stopped waiting—and started leading your own transformation?

What if the thing holding you back financially isn’t your partner—but the belief that you need them to change first?

In this episode, I share a perspective that can feel both confronting and incredibly freeing: waiting for your partner to get on board with money work is a limiting pattern.

I walk through why making...

What if your financial breakdown wasn’t the end… but the beginning of a more sustainable way of living with money?

And what if feeling safe with money had less to do with how much you earn—and more to do with how you relate to it?

What happens when everything you thought was working… suddenly falls apart?

In this episode, I sit down with Kareem Manuel, who went from running a growing business to experiencing a rapid financial collapse—losing his business, his home, and his sense of stability almost ove...

Are you using money to make someone else feel okay… so that you can feel okay?

And if so, what might become possible if your financial choices came from clarity instead of emotional obligation?

What if one of the biggest drains on your finances isn’t your spending habits—but your relationships?

In this episode, I’m talking about something that can feel a little uncomfortable to name, but incredibly liberating once you see it clearly: financial codependency.

I share what financial codependency actually is—using money to regulat...

This is the recap from the Day 1 session of Good with Money with Kate Northrup. 

If you would like to listen to the rest of the workshop, you can register here: http://katenorthrup.com/good.

What if rebuilding your finances after a major life rupture wasn’t about pushing harder—but about slowing down enough to truly heal?

And what if your relationship with money had more to do with your nervous system than your strategy?

What if the path to financial stability isn’t about doing more—but about being with what is?

In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend, Jenn Racioppi, to explore what it really looks like to rebuild your life—financially, physically, and emotionally—after a divorce that changes ever...

What if your money could actually support you… instead of something you constantly have to manage?

And what if more freedom didn’t come from earning more—but from how your money is structured?

What if your money could actually support you… instead of something you constantly have to manage?

In this episode, I share what I call healthy financial overflow—a state where your money is no longer something you have to push, control, or constantly think about… but something that quietly and reliably supports your life.

Because h...

What if nothing is “wrong” with your money… but you still know there’s more available for you?

What if the next level of financial expansion isn’t about working harder—but feeling safer and more supported?

In this episode, I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes conversation with one of our Relaxed Money students, Nichelle—and her story is such a powerful reminder that you don’t have to wait for a crisis to create change.

Nichelle came into this work with stable income, solid numbers, and a life that looked “good on paper.” And...

What if the reason your money isn't moving the way you want has nothing to do with discipline — and everything to do with patterns you haven't been able to see yet?

In part three of the Recalibration Series, I'm walking you through the subtle, often invisible money leaks that quietly drain financial energy from high-achieving, high-responsibility people — even when you're doing everything "right."

In this episode, you'll learn:

Why does making more money still feel like it's never enough?

In this episode, I'm joined by Melissa Eich — nurse, women's health coach, and someone who knows what it's like to work hard, invest in yourself, and still feel like the ground beneath your money is shaking.

Melissa opens up about a difficult investment that didn't deliver — and the wave of shame, anger, and self-doubt that followed. We go deep on why more income doesn't automatically create safety or satisfaction, and what it actually takes to stop outsourcing your sense of financial security to t...

What if the reason your money isn't growing the way you want has nothing to do with how much you make?

In this episode, I'm introducing a powerful new framework called the hidden money ecosystem—and it might completely change the way you understand your financial life.

Money is not just math. It's an ecosystem made up of two invisible forces: your energetics (how money feels in your body, your beliefs, your internal wiring) and your engineering (your systems, structures, and strategies). What you see on the surface — your income, savings, lifestyle—is simply...

The money can come back. The question is: will you?

Prit lost over half a million dollars. What followed wasn't just a financial crisis — it was a full reckoning with the patterns, beliefs, and survival strategies that had been running her life long before the loss happened.

In this conversation, we trace the arc from overwhelm and self-blame to something far more powerful: a grounded, embodied relationship with money, trust, and her own authority. We talk about what it actually takes to stop abandoning yourself under pressure — and what becomes possible when you do.<...

What if the reason you're not earning more isn't a capability problem—it's a capacity problem?

If you've ever found yourself pumping the brakes on your own income—not because you can't make more money, but because some part of you is afraid of what comes with it—this episode is for you.

Welcome to the Recalibration Series. This is a special collection of episodes I've created specifically for high-capacity, high-functioning humans who are ready to recalibrate their relationship with power, money, and safety. If you're someone who generates meaningful income, carries a lot of...

What if the most transformational money event you could attend had very little to do with spreadsheets—and everything to do with your body, your nervous system, and the way you connect with others?

In this episode, I’m sharing the top seven lessons I learned from hosting what attendees called “the best event ever” at our most recent Relaxed Money Live gathering in Nashville. After the event, my phone was flooded with voice memos, texts, and messages from people saying they had never experienced anything like it—and I’ve been reflecting deeply on why.

Wha...

What if the most radical thing you could do isn’t fight harder—but finally put down your sword?

In this episode, I sit down with my friend Dr. Kelly Brogan, host of Reclamation Radio, to explore what happened when she stopped trying to convince anyone and turned her attention inward. We talk about activism, identity, feminine power, marriage, money, and the grief that can live underneath even the most successful life. Kelly shares how examining her own patterns—rather than battling villains—transformed her relationships, her business, and her sense of safety

We also...

What if one woman could change the entire trajectory of your relationship with your body, your desire, and your power—for the rest of your life?

In this deeply personal episode of the Plenty Podcast, I sit down with the woman who did exactly that for me: Regena Thomashauer, also known as Mama Gena, the Queen of Pleasure.

I met Regena when I was 22 years old. I walked into her brownstone living room in New York City not knowing that a single class would reshape how I experienced my body, my relationships, my...

What if tuning in to what turns you on is one of the most powerful ways to access more money, confidence, and leadership in your life?

In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with Genevieve LeJeune, founder and CEO of Skirt Club, a private international membership for bisexual and bi-curious women. Our conversation moves straight into territory most people avoid - pleasure, desire, power, money, and the courage it takes to invest in yourself when the world tells you not to. Genevieve shares how Skirt Club began as a small gathering in her London...

What would change for your family if the hardest conversations about money and death were already handled—clearly, lovingly, and without chaos?

In this episode of Plenty, I’m sitting down with estate and legacy planning lawyer Amber Saunders for a conversation most people avoid—and pay for later.

We talk about why avoiding conversations about death, money, and legacy doesn’t protect your family… it actually creates confusion, resentment, and heartbreak when it matters most. Amber shares a powerful personal story about how one simple decision her great-grandmother made ended up supporting...

What if the most profitable thing you could do this year isn’t another strategy - but learning how to create real connection?

In this episode of Plenty, I’m inviting you into a conversation that challenges one of the most common assumptions in business and money: that control creates security. I share why control is often a stress response and how connection, not control, is what actually expands wealth. Not networking. Not transactional relationships. Real, human, heart-to-heart connection that opens new channels for opportunity, collaboration, and prosperity.

I tell a pivotal story abou...

What if the reason your message isn’t landing - or your sales feel harder than they should - isn’t your strategy… but the sound of your voice?

In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with the one-and-only Tracy Goodwin, founder of Captivate the Room, whose work completely changed how I understand communication, connection, and conversion. Tracy doesn’t teach “speaking tips.” She hears voices - literally - and she can identify microscopic sounds in your voice that can quietly repel trust, resonance, and income. According to her decades of research, those tiny sounds can c...

What if the abundance you’ve been working so hard to create is already here - just waiting for you to ask for it?

In this episode of Plenty, I’m sharing one of the most overlooked - and most efficient - ways to unlock prosperity, support, and resources: asking.

So many of us were conditioned to believe that being strong means doing everything alone. That wisdom lives in pushing harder, figuring it out in our heads, and proving our self-sufficiency. But that mindset is exactly what keeps abundance just out of reach.
