Money decisions aren’t just about numbers — they’re shaped by experiences, stress, and emotional patterns most people never notice. In this episode, we explore how financial trauma forms, how it shows up in everyday money behavior, and why people often repeat the same patterns even when they know better.

If money feels heavier or more emotional than it should, this conversation helps explain why — and where those reactions come from.
