• Tiffany introduces the question: 'What has been the most influential tip you've received or given about money management to help you transform your thinking about money?'

• Tiffany shares the concept from 'Your Money or Your Life' by Vicki Robbins that transformed her thinking: evaluate money in terms of time rather than dollars.

Think of money in terms of time... That means in order to get those shoes, loosely speaking, is going to take five hours of your time. Once you start thinking about your money in that way, you start looking at stuff like, is that really worth my time?

• Applications include evaluating purchases, pricing services as an entrepreneur, and deciding on pro bono work.

• Tiffany explains that clients often come to her in panic mode, which prevents creative problem-solving. She advises resetting emotionally before tackling finances.

Don't even think or look at your money if you're in a panic state... you have to start thinking creatively when it comes to your money, but you can't do that if you're in your fight or flight.

• She shares a client example where she reset the call by asking the client to envision their ideal future, which shifted them from negative to positive autopilot and revealed their goals.

• Tiffany invites listeners to submit questions and asks for feedback on the best tip she's given them. Encourages spending wisely by spending less than you make.
