In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with Stanford-trained sociologist, financial wellness coach, and author Tari K. Vickery to dive into her groundbreaking book, The Emotional Side of Money: A Roadmap to Financial Wellness. Have you ever felt your heart race just opening a bank account statement? Or wondered why certain spending habits feel absolutely impossible to break, no matter how much you try? If you’ve ever felt that money carries a heavy emotional weight that has very little to do with actual math and numbers, this conversation is your wake-up call. Pulling from over 25 years of experience sitting with people where their emotions and their money collide, Tari shares her personal journey from a childhood of "scarcity on steroids" to true financial wellness. Together, they peel back the hidden layers of our financial behaviors to expose a radical truth: money is emotional long before it is transactional. If you are ready to stop blaming yourself and finally heal your financial anxiety, listen in to discover how to rewrite your inherited money story.

🎯 What Listeners Will Learn:
- The Truth About Money Trauma: Understand what money trauma actually is and how overheard arguments, silent treatments, and childhood observations create deeply seated biases that dictate adult financial choices.
- Reframing the "What's Wrong with Me?" Mentality: Discover why struggling with money management is not a personal failure, but rather a lack of tools and unexamined childhood messaging.
- Financial Wellness vs. Financial Wealth: Learn why hitting a specific number in your bank account will never automatically grant you security, and what true financial peace actually feels like.
- Why Diets and Budgets Fail Alike: Explore the critical psychological shift between a restrictive "budget" and an empowering "spending plan," and how changing your vocabulary can cure financial anxiety.
- The Path to Abundance: Discover how to use Tari’s practical exercises—like writing a raw, honest letter directly to your money—to uncover somatic cues, navigate family taboos, and heal your relationship with finances.
