    90210’s Jennie Garth Gives The BEST Advice for Your 20s, 30s, and 40s

    In this episode of the Liz Moody Podcast, host Liz Moody and guest Jennie Garth talk aging, self-love, and mental health. Jennie Garth rose to fame from her role as Kelly Taylor in Beverly Hills: 90210. Her experiences with her changing roles in Hollywood have given her a unique perspective on aging and have also presented unique challenges.

    Liz and Jennie begin by discussing why “I Choose Me” resonates with so many women. In a world that still values women based on their appearance and their proximity to men, choosing yourself is a powerful act. Jennie describes how the concept resonates with her. 

    Next, Jennie dives into her experiences growing up as an actress. She watched her roles age with her, setting her on a journey toward accepting aging. She also explains how the roles she grew up playing shaped her view of what was “normal,” and how she had to shift her beliefs as she grew. 

    Jennie and Liz talk about perimenopause, menopause, and the hormonal changes that women experience throughout their lives. Jennie and Liz don’t just discuss physical health – they explore mental health as well. Jennie explains how she learned to understand her emotions as a natural and important part of her identity instead of a weakness. She passed the attitude onto her daughter, teaching them to accept and listen to their emotions.  

    • 2:20 Why “I Choose Me?”
    • 4:35 Aging in Hollywood
    • 7:53 Knowing Your Authentic Self
    • 11:59 Menopause 
    • 13:23 Perimenopause

    “I Feel Behind Financially”: Your Toughest Money Qs Answered with Your Rich BFF, Vivian Tu

    In this episode of the Liz Moody Podcast, host Liz Moody and guest Vivian Tu, a former JP Morgan trader and author of the New York Times bestseller Rich AF: The Winning Money Mindset That Will Change Your Life, dive into the dos and don’ts of personal finance. 

    They begin by discussing methods for budgeting, specifically the 50/30/20 method. Vivian also introduces her ground rules for any relationship: partners should have their own money and a prenup. While many hold misconceptions that prenups are for people who doubt their relationships, Vivian sees them as similar to car or health insurance. You don’t get car insurance because you don’t trust your vehicle! 

    Liz and Vivian also discuss investments and determining which types of investments are worth it. Vivian emphasizes the importance of taking internet investment trends with a grain of salt because there are no real get-rich-quick schemes. Instead, she recommends taking advantage of tax optimizations before moving into less traditional investments. 

    The conversation also highlights the unique challenges of working in the era of the 401k. Vivian advises listeners to seek out a meaningful raise every two years and to change companies if one is not possible. Workers used to be loyal to companies because they had reason to be – but today, individuals who stay at the same company see substantially lower paychecks on average. 

    The discussion ends with financial gaps in friendships. Ultimately, friendship is its own type of investment – and you may be willing to invest more in people who lift you up than people who wear you down.
