Why This Episode Is a Must-Watch In a world where financial decisions can be deeply influenced by emotions and biases, understanding how these factors play a role in investment strategy is crucial. This episode of “Inspired Money” dives deep into behavioral finance to uncover the predictable irrationality in our investment choices. Are you letting fear and greed drive your financial decisions? Discover strategies to navigate biases and invest more rationally by tuning in. Meet the Expert Panelists Colin Camerer is a pioneering behavioral economist and neuroeconomist known for integrating psychology and neuroscience into economic decision-making. As the Robert Kirby Professor of Behavioral Finance and Economics at Caltech, he researches neuroeconomics, behavioral game theory, decision science, and the neuroscience of economic choices, earning him a MacArthur Fellowship in 2013 and an honorary doctorate from the Stockholm School of Economics in 2019. Tom Howard is a pioneer in behavioral finance, best known for founding AthenaInvest and authoring the influential book Behavioral Portfolio Management. With over 35 years in academia and finance, he developed a groundbreaking approach that challenges traditional investment theory by focusing on how investors actually behave, revolutionizing portfolio management through a behavioral data-driven strategy. Annika Echarti, CFP® is a financial coach specializing in behavioral finance and financial psychology. With a background in accounting, law, and economics, she helps self-employed individuals and small business owners align their financial decisions with their goals and values, focusing on both practical strategies and the psychology behind money habits. Megan McCoy, Ph.D., LMFT, AFC®, CFT™ is an Assistant Professor at Kansas State University's Department of Personal Financial Planning, where she specializes in financial therapy, financial well-being, and the dynamics of couples' financial interactions, and has published extensively on these topics while also contributing as a board member of the Financial Therapy Association and co-editor of the Financial Planning Review. Key Highlights: Cognitive Biases Unveiled: According to Colin Camerer, “Fear and greed are real and are actually in the brain.” He explains how these emotions manifest during market bubbles, revealing deep insights into investor behavior. Recognizing these mental states can help investors maintain discipline amidst market fluctuations. The Power of Planning: Tom Howard highlights that “myopic loss aversion is the most important mistake that investors make,” emphasizing the role of structured investment plans and predefined sell rules. By anchoring decisions to clear guidelines, investors can mitigate the biases that lead to costly errors. Aligning Financial Decisions with Values: Annika Echarti stresses the significance of aligning financial choices with personal values to overcome emotional biases. This strategic alignment helps investors make decisions that not only benefit their portfolios but also align with their life goals. The Role of Emotional Intelligence: Megan McCoy advocates for the development of emotional intelligence to recognize financial biases. Through self-awareness and exercises like the money egg, investors can unpack early money-related experiences to better understand their current biases. Call-to-Action Here's what I want you to do: the next time you're about to make an investment decision—pause. Ask yourself: Is this decision based on a solid strategy, or is it driven by emotion? Write down your reasoning before taking action. Even just becoming aware of your thought process can help you make smarter choices. Let's start investing more intentionally and less emotionally. Let me know in the comments—what's one bias you've noticed in your own financial decisions? Find the Inspired Money channel on YouTube or listen to Inspired Money in your favorite podcast player.

On today's episode I chat with Rick Kahler, a pioneer in integrating financial planning and psychology and a certified IFS practitioner. We explore how Internal Family Systems can transform our relationship with money, uncovering hidden beliefs and legacy burdens that shape financial behaviors. Rick shares his journey from financial planner to financial therapist, explaining how emotions—not logic—drive most financial decisions. He introduces key concepts like money scripts, financial protectors, and the internal financial system, showing how understanding these parts can help people move from financial stuckness to greater clarity and freedom. Key Takeaways: Money isn't just about numbers—it's deeply tied to our emotions, beliefs, and childhood experiences. Many financial struggles come from polarized parts—a part that wants to save and a part that wants to spend. How do money scripts—unconscious beliefs about money—shape our financial decisions without us even realizing it? Financial shame is often greater than other types of shame, making finances one of the hardest topics to talk about. Legacy burdens around money are passed down through generations, influencing our financial behaviors in ways we may not recognize. Favorite Quote: "Every part has a good intention. Every money script is put in place, every burden is put in place with a good intention…it just doesn't know things are a little different now." – Rick Kahler About Rick Kahler: Rick Kahler is a certified financial planner, financial therapist, and IFS practitioner. He is a founding board member and past chair of the Financial Therapy Association and the creator of IFS-Informed Financial Therapy. Rick has authored seven books and hosts The Financial Therapy Podcast. **************************************************************************************** Episode Sponsor: Michelle Glass **************************************************************************************** Check out our new Self-Led merch at The One Inside store Watch video clips from select episodes on The One Inside on YouTube Follow Tammy on Instagram @ifstammy and on Facebook at The One Inside with Tammy Sollenberger.

More broadly, what is positive psychology and how is it differentiated from the popular conception of behavioral finance as the study of bias?- What is the “three good things” intervention and why does it work? Is it applicable in a financial context as well?- What do you do when someone attributes the best things in life to happenstance or luck? How can you potentially reorient this into something with a more internal locus of control?- Why is money uniquely ripe for conflict and why are advisors well-positioned to help?- What are the primary stages of financial conflict resolution?- Is neuroticism the main personality trait, of the “Big 5,” that advisors would want to be aware of in their clients or do other personality traits play a big role in making sound investment decisions as well?https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahasebedophdcfpCompliance Code: 1117-OAS-6/27/2022

Syble Solomon is the creator of Money Habitudes, a financial tool that helps people understand the psychology of money and make wiser financial decisions. She is a member of the Financial Therapy Association and a pioneer in looking at the intersection between money and emotions. Syble shares insights on what motivates financial decisions, and the deep-rooted and complex feelings we often have towards money. She talks about Money Habitudes, and the six different patterns you need to know to emerge from the divorce process in a financially sound place. Money Habitudes is a self-assessment game that helps players become aware of their habits and attitudes towards money. There are six habitudes that any one person may possess, but people usually have one pattern they follow the most. Most people get so caught up in the conflict their differences create that they don't realize those differences balance each other out. Our first relationship with money is developed based on the messages we pick up from our parents. We inherit these messages, which influences the way we view money and make financial decisions. One thing you must learn to do is communicate when you are angry, in a way that meets your needs rather than just letting the anger out.

What's your earliest memory about money? For me, it's the anxiety I felt as a boy, sitting in my father's apartment, waiting for his unemployment check to hit our mailbox. He suffered at times from anxiety and depression, which wasn't understood very well back then, so steady work was always a challenge for him. I remember buying him lunch at a malt shop once I started working -- not because I was trying to show how grown up, I was, but because we really needed the five dollars. Those formative experiences drove me to a career that taught me how to take care of my own finances and help other people do the same. After nearly 30 years in financial services, I'm positive that there's a real connection between money memories, good financial habits, and mental health that influences our relationships, our emotions, our careers, and our progress towards a safe and secure retirement. To help me explore these important intersections, I'm thrilled to welcome Dr. Megan McCoy to today's episode. Dr. McCoy is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Certified Financial Therapist-I. At Kansas State University, she's a Professor of Practice and Director of the Financial Planning Masters Program and key faculty in the Financial Therapy Certificate Program. Dr. McCoy is also an Executive Board member for the Financial Therapy Association and the Associate Editor of the Journal of Financial Therapy.

Nathan Astle is founder of Relational Money, an organization that specializes in helping people deal with issues related to their emotional difficulties with money, as well as helping couples experiencing financial conflict. He is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, as well as a Certified Financial Therapist. Nathan is a member of the board of directors of the Financial Therapy Association, and has been featured on CNBC and USA Today. He explains the role of a Certified Financial Therapist, and educates listeners on how to regain power over their lives after a financially abusive relationship. He also shares a resource to help listeners regulate their emotions, particularly around money. Money has different meanings for different people: it can be a necessary evil that enables them to live the life they want, a representation of security and safety, and a way to assert dominance and influence over a person. The way you were raised has a significant impact on the way you experience money. How your parents treated wealth and wealthy people, the explicit messages you were taught about money, and what went unsaid, all played a part in shaping your perception of money. Emotional regulation becomes a challenge when people are going through traumatic experiences, because they often respond to situations in ways that best guarantee their survival. Focusing on your senses can help you control your emotions. When you feel yourself slipping, pay attention to the texture of something near you; it's a helpful tool for recentering yourself in the moment.

Money... Finances... are so incredibly mental and emotional. Yet we all tend to learn about these on our own and figure everything will work out. Why shouldn't we get help with it? Not just setting ourselves up for retirement but with the emotional side of it?

On this podcast, we spend time talking about decision making regarding money and finances. Why is it that we make the decisions we make? Why does buying something off Amazon make me feel better? Why am I afraid to buy anything? Have you ever wondered how money makes you feel and what money means to you? Well, we get down deep into those questions and more with Nathan Astle.

From a frugal upbringing in India, to an almost 15 year-long career working as a stock trader on Wall Street, writer and researcher Nyla has always possessed a strong fluency in the language of money. But when faced with the abrupt endings of both her job and her marriage, Nyla took the opportunity to re-examine her life path, and her relationship with money. In this episode of “Financially Ever After”, Nyla shares some of the insights she has discovered that have helped her unleash her most creative, well-rounded and generative self, including: Why, when it comes to marriage, looking at finances and value creation between two spouses as a zero sum game is not healthy and can prevent you from seeing one another as equal partners. [14:48] Why financial coaching should be an important and lifelong educational process for individuals and couples, alike. [25:30] How a dramatic “life audit” shifted her understanding of the value of money and has led her to now view money as a tool that makes possible incredible opportunities and experiences [37:48] How she has learned to redefine her net worth as a “holy triangle” comprised of: social capital (your network), human capital (yourself) and financial capital [44:10] Why your creative and generative potential is the key to your sense of well-being, and how when that is out of whack, you do a disservice to everyone in your life.

Ask yourself honestly, how closely have you examined your emotional relationship with money? Or is it all a bit too awkward? Financial psychology - a relatively new discipline borne out of the USA - says we should all be doing exactly that. It joins the dots between psychology and financial planning, via behavioural economics and says it can help people understand their true relationship with money. Always in debt, but have a good salary? Ever wondered why your wealthy relative is so mean? Financial psychology might have the answer. Manuela Saragosa unravels some of these riddles with two experts: Brad Klontz, founder of the Financial Psychology Institute and Meghaan Lurtz, incoming president of the Financial Therapy Association.
