Podcast appearances and mentions of doug lynam

In 2017, he hung up the robe. He came to realize that voluntary poverty was keeping him from serving the world in the ways he felt called too, so he stepped into a new chapter and joined Long View Asset Management, a sustainability-focused B Corp, eventually becoming a partner where he helps to oversee more than $250 million in assets. From vows of poverty to portfolio management—he knows life has a sense of humor. Doug Lynam, Keynote Speaker, Celebrity Coach and Best-Selling Author has lived a life wilder than a roller coaster designed by Salvador Dalí on a sugar high. He started out as a Marine then took a radical turn becoming a Benedictine monk. For twenty years, he wore the habit while simultaneously leading the mathematics department at a prestigious private school. His education at St. John's College—the delightfully eccentric Great Books school in Santa Fe, New Mexico gave him both philosophical depth and analytical sharpness, a combination that's guided him through every twist and transformation.

In this conversation, Jim interviews Enneagram expert Doug Lynam, who shares his unique journey from a wealthy upbringing to a 20-year stint as a Benedictine monk, and finally to a career in finance and writing. Doug discusses the complexities of money, personal development, and the Enneagram, emphasizing how our childhood experiences shape our financial behaviors and beliefs. He introduces the concept of 'money monsters' and explores the importance of healing our relationship with money through understanding our sacred wounds and attachment styles. 3 Key Takeaways: Money Trauma: Early experiences often shape lifelong beliefs and behaviors about money. For example, conflicting messages about money during Doug's childhood created confusion and avoidance. Enneagram and Financial Behavior: The Enneagram gives us a structured way to understand the emotional undercurrents that drive financial decisions. Doug explains how each type reflects specific emotional reactions to early stress and outlines how these patterns can be recognized and redirected. From Scarcity to Strategy: Shifting from a scarcity mindset to a values-based financial strategy involves identifying emotional triggers, building awareness, and creating systems that support intentional decision-making over inherited habits.

Doug Lynam, author of the popular book, "From Monk to Money Manager: A Former Monk's Guide to Becoming a Little Bit Wealthy -- and Why That's OK", is back for another lively show about your finances. Topics include how good political systems increase wealth, wealth-creation school programs, and what it looks like to have an abusive relationship to money. Below is a quote from "Stressing Out the Poor: Chronic Physiological Stress and the Income-Achievement Gap" (Stanford University report).   Bottom line? Poverty and toxic stress are connected from the get-go.   "Childhood socioeconomic disadvantage leads to deficits in academic achievement and occupational attainment. It's long been argued that such deficits arise because poor children are exposed to inadequate cognitive stimulation and to parenting styles that don't encourage achievement. We don't dispute the important role of these two variables. But we have outlined here evidence for a new, complementary pathway that links early childhood poverty to high levels of exposure to multiple risks, which in turn elevates chronic toxic stress. This cascade can begin very early in life. Even young babies growing up in low-income neighborhoods already evidence elevated chronic stress. This stress then accounts for a significant portion of the association between poverty and working memory, a critical cognitive skill involved in language and reading acquisition." money, finances, wealth, financial ptsd, money archetypes, poverty and stress, retirement planning Doug Lynam website here more about Melanie, and her free guided relaxation meditation to help ease anxiety and overwhelm here
