Money You Should Ask Bob Wheeler

Episode 235: Talking about money can be an uncomfortable subject for many, but it’s an especially important one when it comes to discussing social justice. If you’re seeing a therapist to work through issues relating to race, gender, and equality, odds are that financial considerations play some kind of factor.
 
Unfortunately, we often fail to have in-depth conversations both at home and in therapy with regards to our personal finances and its role in perpetuating disparities between sociocultural groups. However, by engaging with this topic more openly and honestly — especially if you're seeking help — we can begin challenging current power dynamics that aren't serving us well.
 
In this episode, Psychotherapist, Mental Health Expert, Author & Founder of Critical Therapy, Silvia M. Dutchevici, MA, LCSW and I discuss why therapists must not overlook the importance of addressing financial matters while working on social justice topics within their clients' sessions. Let's dive into why making finance part of your therapeutic journey is significant.

Episode 231: Whether you consider yourself to be a saver or a spender, understanding your money habits is an essential life skill. It's not simply about understanding how much money you need to save and how much you can afford to spend, but also about understanding the emotional drivers behind these decisions as well. Are you aware of your financial behavior when it comes to saving or spending money? And what factors influences or drive you to do either?
 
So, In late January 2023, I scoured the halls of Podfest Expo and asked some of the attendees the hard hitting question, Are you a saver or a spender? And during these conversations we also explore;
How guilt can influence the financial choices we make. How people from different cultures have different views and approaches to money. Strategies people use to manage their finances and avoid debt. How families navigate conversations around money.
