Meaning over Money
With 280+ episodes and a 5.0-star rating on Apple Podcasts, we provide concise, straight-to-the-point, short-form episodes centered around money...except it's not really about money.
In each episode, host Travis Shelton dives into cultural trends, current events, and behavioral nuances revolving around work and money. We often dive into topics such as investing, budgeting, relationships, behavioral science, careers, generosity, and much more. Are you ready to redefine the role work and money play in your life? More importantly, are you ready to be challenged toward a more meaningful life?
Most episodes are 10-20 minutes, conducted solo by host Travis Shelton, but we also bring in special guests who we believe can add value to our audience.
Listen along and share with a friend. Our followers aren’t shy about giving us feedback, so send us an e-mail or DM to ask questions, suggest topics, or challenge Travis’s perspective!

Do you ever make the seemingly right decision, only to have a bad feeling in the pit of your stomach about it? In today's raw, unedited episode, host Travis Shelton talks about gut checks and why listening to them is so important in our decision-making process. Yes, we need the mental part of decisions. Yes, we need the emotional part of decisions. But that third factor, the gut check, is critically important as well.

289 - Giving Yourself Grace: It's OK to Push Pause on Some Goals to Focus Your Efforts on Others
We often put pressure on ourselves to constantly make progress on all our goals. In some seasons, however, that's not feasible. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton talks about the importance of giving yourself grace. When we do, it's easier to push pause on some goals so we can focus our efforts on others. It's not a forever decision, but a right-now decision.

288 - Inflation, Through Your Own Eyes: Why Context Matters
Have you noticed how people have wildly differing opinions on the severity and significance of inflation? If you take two similar people, one may say inflation is killing them, and the other may say inflation is being blown out of proportion. Why? No, it's not because one person is being irresponsible. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton uses an illustration to showcase why we have such vast opinions on the topic. In short, context matters.

287 - Controlling Dining Out Without It Controlling You
Anyone else getting frustrated that dining out is getting significantly more expensive? This category is crushing many people's finances, but we have two choices: 1) be a victim, or 2) gain control. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses the recent trend of people allowing restaurants to overcome their finances, and provides some insights on how to regain control.

286 - Expensive vs Priceless: Re-Focusing Our Attention to the Irreplaceable
Have you ever noticed how we often covet, protect, and respect the expensive things in our lives, while the priceless (but not necessarily expensive) things get left in the dust? This is a common phenomenon. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses this dynamic and invites listeners (and himself) to intentionally shift the focus.

285: Challenging Cultural Narratives: Navigating Toxic Financial Half-Truths
Our culture is full of narratives that are misleading at best, and destructive at worst. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton shines a light on one of them: investing in the US stock market. We hope this provides a fuller context on this issue, but also highlights a broader need to cut through the cultural narratives of half-truths that often lead us down the path of poor decisions.

283 - Once You See It: Making Sense of Money and Happiness
Money and happiness is a lot like the KFC logo. Once you see it, you can't unsee it (IYKYK). In today's episode, host Travis Shelton explores the often misunderstood dynamic between money and happiness, and what it means for our life. It's hard to see through the lens of our modern-day culture, but once we see it, we can't unsee it. This episode gets to the heart of the Meaning Over Money message.

282 - The Numbers are a Tell: Why Results Matter, But Not In the Way We Believe
We all love to see positive results. A higher paycheck. More profit. A growing number of customers. The numbers matter. However, we think they matter for a different reason. In most cases, the numbers in and of themselves aren't the answer. They are the tell. They are an indicator we're doing the right things. Instead of dwelling on hitting the desired numbers, we should dwell on the positive behaviors that will ultimately result in the numbers.

What do Cole, ESPN, and Taylor Swift have in common? You're about to find out. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses why even when we achieve monumental things in our journey, the best is still to come. It may be a peak, but it's never THE peak.

280 - Parenting Toward Work that Matters: Helping Our Kids Unlock a More Meaningful Life
Studies show that 70% of Americans dislike or hate their job. It's an epidemic. Worse, it's an epidemic we're unknowingly passing on to our kids. Host Travis Shelton recently had the opportunity to share some insight and encouragement on this topic with 1,000 eighth and ninth graders. In today's episode, we're speaking to parents. As parents ourselves, we believe our kids deserve better than to wake up each morning for the next 40+ years with dread or indifference. We believe they can (and should) pursue a meaningful and fulfilling life. And one massive piece of that is work that matters. Let's talk about it!

279 - If You Only Had 10 Years Left to Live: Making the Most of Our Abundant But Limited Time
I often hear the question, "What would you do if you knew you were going to die tomorrow?" That question raises lots of emotions and triggers instant gratification impulses. Let's change the script. What if you knew you only had ten years left to live? If true, what changes would you make in your life? The answer(s) to that question may actually be a tell about who you are and what you really want in life. It's a question worth pondering!

278 - Losing the Right to Create Impact: Why Completely Disregarding Money is Destructive in the Pursuit of Meaning
We often talk about the science of money and happiness, and the reality that money ultimately does not drive happiness. People on the other side of this aisle often use this as a reason why we should just completely disregard money altogether. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton explains why this isn't the answer. In fact, these types of behaviors can sabotage our efforts and lead us to a place where we end up dwelling on money (or rather money issues).

We live in a culture obsessed with instant gratification. We want to put in the work, quickly get rewarded, then repeat. However, this isn't the way most of life works. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton explains how this instant gratification mindset is sabotaging our ability to achieve our goals. Instead, if we take a longer-term approach, we have the potential to accelerate to where we're trying to go.

It may not be the work you want forever, but it just might be the ticket to help propel yourself to the better next thing.

275 - Intensity vs. Diversity: Finding the Right Approach to Achieve Your Financial Goals
There are a lot of opinions about how best to achieve financial goals. Everyone thinks they are right, and technically they are.....sometimes for some people. The key, however, is to find the right approach for you. It's not a one-size-fits-all approach. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton explains a few different approaches and how you might integrate them into your life. You got this!

274 - When Bad Financial Decisions Are the Best Life Decisions
Many financial decisions are destructive. However, we can't make every decision in life through the lens of money. If we do that, we're nothing more than a mathematical robot. Instead, we need to let finances be one of the factors while making decisions through the lens of a meaningful life. Sometimes, that involves making a decision that may be considered "bad."
