Denise Duffield-Thomas recorded 32 podcast episodes in three days. Then she booked ballet class instead of finding more work to do. Then she felt guilty about it,

Denise is the money mentor behind Money Bootcamp, a program she has now run for 14 years and taught to over 10,000 students. She wrote Get Rich, Lucky Bitch and Chill and Prosper.

She and Adrienne have known each other a long time, so this conversation goes places a normal guest interview does not.

What they cover:

• Why Denise batches to an extreme degree, and her answer to people who say batched content is not authentic
• The golden goose problem, and her realization that there are actually two of them
• What changed when ADHD and perimenopause hit at the same time, and how she rebuilt her workload around a smaller capacity
• The moment she realized she had made herself financially responsible for her husband, her mother, her mother-in-law, and a business partner
• Why she stopped trying to change her own behavior and started building systems that work around it
• Why every plateau feels completely real and almost never is
• Her entire marketing strategy, which is two steps and has never been written down
