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!

219 - Don't Compare Your Beginning to Someone Else's Middle
Do you ever find yourself comparing yourself to someone else? Chances are you look upward when comparing.....not downward. The title of today's episode is a quote from Jon Acuff. Host Travis Shelton heard Jon say this many years ago, and it made a big impact on his life. Whether it's money, skills, career, fitness, or any other number of areas in our life, we need to take a step back from the comparison trap. We also need to recognize our comparisons are often unfair. We can't expect to be where someone else is if we haven't put near the time, energy, or commitment into it (yet) as they have. When we keep this in mind, it has the power to change our perspective and get us back on track to where we need (and want) to be.

218 - Where Have All the Investing "Experts" Gone?
It seemed like just yesterday, every person on social media portrayed themselves as investing "experts." Buy this stock, make this move, and get that crypto. Funny how it got real quiet, real fast. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses this phenomenon and what it means going forward. In short, there's no easy path. Things feel easy when times are good.....but that's just half the story.

215 - Pursuing Work That Matters: Why All Work Isn't Created Equal....For You
All work matters, but not all work matters to you or to me. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses work from the perspective of meaning. If 70% of Americans dislike or hate their jobs, there has to be a better solution. Instead of viewing some work as inherently good (pay, status, etc.), we need to ask if that particular work is good for us. When we better understand what work best fits each of us, we can begin to pursue work that truly matters.

214 - Perception Vs. Reality: How Our Eyes Deceive Us When It Comes to Success
Never judge a book by its cover, right? Easy to say, hard to follow. When we look at other people's lives, we like to use external signals (clothes, houses, cars, trips) as a way to perceive their level of wealth, success, or status. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton explains why he thinks these external signals are often misleading. In fact, we believe there can oftentimes be an inverse correlation between external signals and actual success. Why? Because the cost of the signals can be the roadblock to the actual success.

213 - Sticking to the Plan - Why Shortcuts Are Never Our Friend
Have you ever tried to take a shortcut while driving somewhere, only to get totally burned and end up worse than you originally started? Money is much the same way. There are a lot of shiny-looking shortcuts out there, each one with the allure of being better, faster, and easier. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses why we so easily fall for shortcuts, and why they are so damaging to our journey.

212 - What is Success? Redefining What it Means to Win
In today's culture, success is measured in sales, growth, profit, and a number of other objective financial measures. In some ways, this makes sense. It's measurable and comparable. However, if we use these measuring sticks to define success, we may actually miss out on what's really important to us. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses why it's important for each of us to answer the question: What do I really want? Once we do, the definition of success may look dramatically different then what some arbitrary financial measures can dictate.

211 - Deep Questions From the Omaha YP Summit
Last week, host Travis Shelton had the opportunity to share the Meaning Over Money message at the Omaha YP Summit, the largest young professionals conference in the country. Wow, it was awesome! On the heels of his talk, several people approached him to ask questions about their own lives. These were deep and important questions. Also, more than likely, these are similar questions shared by many. Therefore, we wanted to take a moment to publicly answer some of these questions in hopes of adding value to many. We think some of these will resonate with you as you pursue your own journey.

210 - Stop Feeling Guilt: The Value of Intentional and Joyful Spending
Millions of people face a common struggle. No, not the struggle of overspending. Rather, they struggle to part ways with their money to enjoy things in life. Things ranging from a coffee, to a pair of shoes, to a vacation. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses how this became such a big problem in our culture, why it's important to get it right, and steps you can take to move in the right direction.

209 - The Tale of Two Couples: Why It's Not Always About the Income
We live in a culture that elevates income as the be-all and end-all in determining financial success. This makes sense, but it's simply not true. Yes, income matters. However, one's income is not the primary driving force behind whether or not they are financially successful. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses this concept through the lens of two couples in similar life stages but with very different incomes. This one is an eye-opener.

208 - The (Negative) Correlation Between Spending and Mental Health
Do you know the term "retail therapy?" What if I told you we have it completely backward? In today's episode, host Travis Shelton explains why spending money on wants to make ourselves feel good is actually one of the things negatively impacting our mental health. It's short-term gain, long-term pain. Yes, mental health is important....extremely important! Let's talk more about it.

This is a common dilemma many of us face. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton explains how to financially prepare for something when the end game is still a bit uncertain.

206 - Money Doesn't Equal Fun, Fun Equals Fun
We often conflate money with fun. We assume in order to enjoy life and have a good time, we need money. For some things, yes, but this isn't a universal truth. Money doesn't equal fun, fun equals fun. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses why we so often relate money to fun, and how it can be freeing when we realize that's not the full truth.

You need a credit card to travel, right? It's a narrative as old as credit cards themselves. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses how he recently traveled to multiple countries with nothing other than cash and debit cards. Not only does it work, but it works very, very well!
