About this episode

We all have a money story, and some (if not almost all) of ours include both big and little “T” trauma that impacts the way we handle finances for the rest of our lives. We wanted to dive into what money trauma is, how it manifests, and how we can become more aware of and work with that trauma for healthier financial practices –– so we asked Millenial Money Expert Shannah Game to join us. In this episode, Shannah and Tori dive into different types of money trauma and how to recognize our own unhealthy patterns and create new ones to help us find peace with our finances.
