During stressful times like these, the only thing that brings me comfort is #shopping. For anyone who suffers from #addiction, be it #overeating, #gambling, #sex, #socialmedia, #drugs, #alcohol or #overshopping, elevated #stress can cause a major spike in cortisol levels (our brain’s built-in alarm system), often triggering self-sabotaging behavior. With #anxiety and #stress levels at an all time high, it’s essential to identify those #triggers early so you can put a stop to #destructive behavioral patterns. That’s why I had to chat with Carrie Rattle, a former Wall Street executive-turned-financial-therapist and #OverShopping specialist. A 30-year veteran executive of the financial industry and CEO of BehaviorialCents.com, Carrie has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to #finance and #shoppingaddiction. I first connected with Carrie back in 2021 when she was working alongside Dr. April Benson, a nationally known psychologist and author who specialized in the treatment of compulsive buying disorder. I was seeking #therapy for my #compulsiveshopping problem but never had the #courage to do something about it… until now. Listen to this week’s #episode to hear more about my journey with @carrierattle’s new #stoppingovershopping #groupcoaching #program on serialshopper.com, #applepodcasts and #spotifypodcasts. Enjoy the show!

I'm honored to have NYC-based journalist and author, Carla Sosenko on this week's #serialshoppershow Podcast. I couldn't help but stalk Carla after coming across this eye-opening article she penned for #Cosmopolitan and #HarpersBazaar (which clearly went viral) about her personal struggles with compulsive buying disorder. Listen to my candid chat with Carla for the inside scoop about why she spent almost $100,000 on Instagram Shopping - in 6 months. Wait... why isn't my name on that #HarpersBazaar byline? All joking aside, this week's jaw-dropping episode is not-to-be-missed. In fact, we had so much to discuss about our dysfunctional buying behavior that I'm posting a second episode with even juicer nuggets the following week. Be sure to order Carla’s memoir, Such a Pretty Face: Good Lessons From Bad Moments
in an Unconventional Body, which will be published by Dial in spring 2025. Enjoy the show! Carla Sosenko Photo Credit: Kathryn M. Sheldon. -
Meet Janine - my partner in crime when it comes to shopping. Find out why I have a love hate relationship with Janine on this week's episode. I adore her because she's an amazing person who always tells me when I've gone too far and purchased to many pairs of well, Golden Goose sneakers. I hate her for introducting me to CantyBoots.com - kick ass custom designer luxury cowboy boots that I clearly don't need but had to have. Find out how I met Janine (it's a crazy story) and why we quickly bonded over our love of well, shopping along with some tough stories about how compulsive spending can quickly spiral out of control.
