Unlike most books about finances, The Emotional Side of Money focuses on the emotional triggers that drive our assumptions, beliefs, and habits around money. These beliefs can create a lifetime of fear, anxiety, and confusion around this important aspect of everyday life. And yet, it is possible to change these beliefs by examining how we came to them. Done correctly, we can replace them with a healthier, more balanced, more constructive attitude about money.
As the founder and CEO of Life Matters Financial Group, I have spent over two decades observing my clients' struggles with money and the stress caused by their habits. In "The Emotional Side of Money," I use case histories to illustrate common challenges and guide readers in overcoming detrimental habits for a healthier financial relationship. Drawing from my experiences—from growing up with a young mother to achieving wealth and facing significant loss—I share my emotional journey with money.
