Manage episode 262409996 series 2564398
How is your relationship with money?
Do you hoard it? Feel like you don’t deserve it? Spend too much of it? Gamble it? Don’t understand it? You worship it? Do you think more of it will make you happy?
Did you know that how we feel about money directly impacts our current financial situation? With money being the # 1 source of stress in American lives, (and I imagine even more so now with our current pandemic and economic situation) is there anything we can do about it? I am thrilled to be joined by Brad Klontz, a financial psychologist, author of Mind Over Money, and co-founder of Your Mental Wealth. He explains why our relationship with money impacts our current finances and what we can do to transform it. We will hear how he got into this business, the importance of financial literacy and having a good money mindset, and how to alleviate financial stress by improving our relationship with money. With so much chaos, confusion, and complexity around money, especially right now, this message is more important than ever.
