    Financial Enabling vs Financial Generosity: An Interview with Lindsay Bryan-Podvin

    In this episode, I bring back financial therapist Lindsay Bryan-Podvin. Lindsay is a biracial financial wellness expert, speaker, and author of the book "The Financial Anxiety Solution”. Lindsay uses a shame-free approach to help people get their minds and money in balance by focusing on the intersection of money and mental health using financial therapy.  We dig deep into when do we help people and when do we harm them by giving money, how to know if we are being taken advantage of and what to consider before giving someone money.   “Being an enabler prevents the person from having the natural consequences of their actions.” - Lindsay Bryan-Podvin “When you continue to save people and prevent them from experiencing consequences, it's a way to postpone making a decision” - Melanie Lockert “When we think about enabling, we also think about removing a person's natural ability to learn how to function a bit more independently.” - Lindsay Bryan-Podvin “Financial abuse is the next level, above and beyond just enabling or some dysfunction or some tension. It is really making it so the person cannot financially escape a relationship or situation.” - Lindsay Bryan-Podvin    What You Will Learn From This Episode  ●     The relationship between financial enabling and codependency ●     The difference between financial enabling and financial generosity ●     How enabling can be a part of a dysfunctional dynamic ●     How to set boundaries when you’re from a culture that expects you to support your parents ●     How to set boundaries/expectations on sending money to your family in another country  ●     What to do if your boundaries are met with anger or resentment ●     When is the appropriate time to help out a loved one and what to do if you’re being taken advantage of ●     How can you tell if you’re being truly financially generous   About Lindsay Bryan-Podvin: Lindsay Bryan-Podvin (she/her) is a biracial financial wellness expert, speaker, and author of the book "The Financial Anxiety Solution." A practicing social worker since 2012, she uses a shame-free approach to help people get their minds and money in balance by focusing on the intersection of money and mental health using financial therapy. While financial literacy is important, she champions the belief that money is rooted in emotions and impacted by the systems around us. She has a degree in sociology and a Master’s in Social Work with certificates in Financial Social Work and Financial Therapy. She lives with her partner and their dog on the occupied land of the Fox, Peoria, and Potawatomi peoples, also known as Michigan.  Resources: *Affiliate link          When Helping Hurts: 5 Recommendations For Planners Financial Enabling Clients          When Parents Can’t Say NO: Financial Enabling          To the Limit: Financial Dependency and Enabling          Personal Finance: Family Savings Funds          Inheritance by Race          Migrant Remittances: The Impact of Immigrants Sending Money Back Home          Get Lindsay’s session on how to Transform Your Money Mindset          FreeForm          *The Financial Anxiety Solution by Lindsay Bryan-Podvin   Connect with Lindsay:          Website          Instagram          YouTube          Podcast: Mind Money Balance          Pinterest  Connect with Melanie          mentalhealthandwealth.com          melanielockert.com          Instagram          Support the podcast through Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/melanielockert          Buy Melanie’s book “Dear Debt”          Contact: mentalhealthandwealthshow@gmail.com     Want more content and support?  Sign up for the Mental Hump Newsletter and get our free Mental Health and Money inventory worksheet.

In that journey, he realized the importance of holistic well-being, where money isn’t the goal but the tool to achieve the goals.

    On Post-Traumatic Growth, Psychedelics, Overcoming Depression and Achieving a Healthy Money Mindset: An Interview with Benoit Kim

    Benoit Kim is a US army veteran, Penn-educated former policymaker turned psychotherapist, and host of the Discover More Podcast. In this episode, he shares how he got his depression, his coping mechanism to overcome it, and how it led him to shift into a different career. We also talk about the phenomenon called post-traumatic growth (which is on the other side of PTSD), psychedelics, and what it looks like to have a healthy money mindset. “The famous mental health adage states that the opposite of depression is expression, what you don't express gets depressed. And of course, it's a general blanket statement, but it is the core ethos of a lot of mental health issues.” - Benoit Kim “I attribute a lot of my growth and this new lens that allows me to navigate life in such a hyper-intentional way to the phenomena of post-traumatic growth.” - Benoit Kim “When you let yourself grow from such hard experiences, that's the real beauty of healing and growth.” - Melanie Lockert What You Will Learn From This Episode How acceptance of limitation leads to healing Importance of breaking the stigma on masculinity Advantages of having an intentional personality What is post-traumatic growth and how to achieve it Why physical health and mental health are not two separate entities The mental health and emotional signs telling you that it is time for a career change How journaling and looking back at your life's data points can help you make changes and grow What a healthy money mindset looks like Psychedelics - its effectivity and risk factors What does it look like to have psychedelic-assisted therapy How healing can transform life and get people to optimal performance About Benoit Kim: Benoit Kim is a US army veteran, Penn-educated former policymaker turned therapist, and host of the Discover More Podcast. He worked in the policy sector for a few years then pivoted recently into the clinical field as an aspirational psychedelic-assisted psychotherapist.
