UNLOCKED: How to Stop Impulse Spending & Save More Money

Send us a text

💸 Welcome to The Vault Unlocked – a special bonus series of The Vault Podcast, where we deep dive into the big money topics no one wants to talk about.

Today, we’re tackling impulse spending—because let’s be real, we’ve all been there. That late-night scroll, the dopamine rush of hitting “buy,” and the regret that follows when you check your bank balance. But impulse spending isn’t just about willpower—it’s psychological, emotional, and even designed to happen.

Here’s what we’re unlocking in this episode:

• Why impulse spending happens (hint: it’s not just bad self-control)
• The brain’s reward system and how companies exploit it to make you spend more
• How retail therapy became glamorized—and why it’s so hard to break the cycle
• The real cost of impulse spending (it’s more than just money)
• Proven strategies to take back control, from no-spend challenges to sinking funds

This episode will help you break the habit, keep more money in your pocket, and spend intentionally—without feeling deprived.
