Episode 138
Tuesday, 21 July, 2026
Share Your Thoughts!If you've ever felt jealous watching someone else hit a financial milestone while you're still working toward your own goals, you're not alone.In this solo episode, Violeta opens up about something we don't talk about enough in personal finance: envidia (jealousy). She shares why feelings of envy don't make you a bad person—they're often a signal pointing toward a dream, desire, or goal you've been afraid to pursue or haven't given yourself permission to believe is possible.Drawing from her own experiences as an entrepreneur, content creator, and real estate investor, Violeta explains how she has learned to recognize jealousy without shame, uncover what it's trying to teach her, and transform comparison into action. From seeing creators go viral to navigating feelings around business growth and financial success, she shares practical mindset shifts that have helped her stay focused on her own journey instead of someone else's timeline.Throughout the episode, she encourages listeners to stop treating jealousy as something to suppress and instead use it as valuable information. By identifying the root of those emotions, challenging scarcity thinking, and taking small, intentional steps toward their own goals, listeners can turn comparison into motivation and continue building wealth with confidence.We cover:Why jealousy is a normal human emotion—not a character flawHow envy can reveal the financial goals and dreams you've been avoidingWhy comparing yourself to others often stems from scarcity mindsetHow childhood comparisons and cultural expectations can shape your relationship with successThe difference between admiring someone's success and feeling defeated by itHow Violeta processes feelings of envy in her own business and investing journeyWhy someone else's success doesn't take away your opportunitiesHow to use comparison as a learning tool instead of a source of discouragementThe importance of curating your social media feed to protect your mindsetWhy taking one small action is more powerful than endlessly comparing timelinesHow writing down your financial goals can keep you grounded in your own definition of successVioleta's "Envidia Reset" framework for turning jealousy into personal growth and financial actionThis episode is a reminder that jealousy isn't the enemy—staying stuck is. When you learn to acknowledge envy instead of hiding from it, you can uncover what's truly important to you, let go of comparison, and refocus your energy on building the life and financial future you want. Someone else's success isn't proof that you're behind—it's proof that your goals are possible too.Mentioned in this episode:Real Estate Chisme Podcast Sign up for Money Chisme NewsletterSupport the showSign Up for the MoneyChisme & Raíces NewsletterResources:Start Investing with M1Finance or FidelityFinance Books to Start Your JourneyOpen a High Yields AccountSupport/Apoya MoneyChismeDisclaimer: I’m not a financial advisor.
