What if the biggest thing influencing your pricing, growth, and business decisions has nothing to do with strategy? In Episode 359 of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy sits down with growth strategist, certified business coach, Trauma of Money Certified Practitioner, and Imposter Syndrome Coach Practitioner Brittney Ashley to explore the hidden ways money trauma, scarcity, self-worth, and imposter syndrome can quietly shape the way entrepreneurs lead and grow. From sitting on proposals out of fear of charging too much to the invisible financial beliefs we inherit from childhood, Brittney reveals why some of our most important business decisions may be driven by stories we do not even realize we are carrying.Brittney also shares her journey from toxic workplaces and personal loss to building Creative Dynamics Virtual Services, a business designed around the belief that work should support your life, not consume it. Together, Kelly and Brittney explore the psychology behind undercharging, the anxiety entrepreneurs can feel around money, the shift from selling hours to delivering outcomes, and why understanding your own money story may be one of the most important steps you can take as a business owner. This is an honest and deeply relatable conversation about the emotional side of entrepreneurship and the question every business owner should be asking: Is money trauma making your business decisions?Key Takeaways:Money trauma can quietly influence pricing, spending, saving, and major business decisions without you realizing it.The money stories you inherit from childhood and family can continue shaping your behaviour as an entrepreneur.Imposter syndrome often shows up as hesitation, undercharging, overthinking, and questioning whether you are truly worth your price.Sometimes the best thing you can do for your business is create enough space to reflect instead of constantly reacting.Undercharging is not always a pricing problem; it can be connected to people pleasing, self-worth, and fear of rejection.You do not have to make massive changes overnight; small, consistent increases in confidence and pricing can compound over time.Entrepreneurs need to shift their mindset from selling hours to delivering valuable outcomes and transformations.Building a successful business requires working on yourself as much as working on your strategy, systems, and operations.A business should be designed to support your life, not consume it or require you to be involved in every decision.Growth begins when you become curious about your own patterns and ask what is really driving the decisions behind your business.Get in Touch with Brittney AshleyConnect with Brittney on LinkedInListen to Breaking Norms, Building Dreams on SoundCloudVisit Creative Dynamics Virtual Services
You built something your family never had. So why does it feel like guilt instead of pride? That is first gen wealth guilt, and it messes with your money, your identity, and your mental health in ways nobody warns you about.In this roundtable I sat down with four badass women who live this every day. Kristina Hall, Ashley Quamme, Tessa Santarpia, and Rachel Duncan get honest about being women, business owners, and cycle breakers in a world that raised us to expect a lot less.Ashley talks about growing up with every empowering message you could want and zero model for what being a woman business owner actually looks like. Tessa breaks down how first gen builders carry generations of disappointment in their nervous system whether they know it or not. Rachel calls building wealth her old dirty little secret, the immigrant American dream she married into, and what it means to be uncomfortable with your own comfort.Then Kristina brings the line every first gen builder has lived: the family member who keeps asking when you are going to get a real job. We get into betting on yourself, why everything is figureoutable, and the difference between staying among your people and outgrowing the money map you were handed.This one goes deep. If you want to hear Stoy's own story, he and Ashley did a Father's Day episode that gets into his guilt directly: https://youtu.be/1oDJ2wZuWJ0Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/CCAHAB5-kpM Kristina Hall: https://hallsocialmedia.com/ Ashley Quamme: https://www.beyondthefp.com/ Tessa Santarpia: https://santaia.health/ Rachel Duncan: https://www.rachelduncantherapy.com/If this hit home, drop a comment.

The world keeps throwing haymakers. Tariffs, wars, student loans, businesses folding, another headline you did not ask for. And what do most of us do? We freeze. This is financial anxiety, and it is quietly wrecking your money and your mental health.In Part 2 of this roundtable, I sat down with four people who actually understand what is happening in your nervous system when the noise gets loud. Kristina Hall, Ashley Quamme, Tessa Santarpia, and Rachel Duncan get real about why you feel paralyzed, why it is not a willpower problem, and what to actually do about it.We get into the stuff nobody puts in a budgeting article. Treating chaos like a season instead of a life sentence. Shrinking your time horizon so your brain stops projecting five years of doom. Keeping a have-done list, not just a to-do list. Why hobbies are not a nice-to-have, they are a got-to-have. And why the dad with a broken guitar and a six-pack might be doing more for your finances than your spreadsheet.Then I gave you the practical move I put in every single budget: joy money. Call it fun money, call it whatever you want. It is a line item you are allowed to burn. Because when you already told yourself yes, you stop stealing from other buckets and drowning in guilt over a massage or a dance class that keeps you human.Also, yes, we spend a full intermission arguing about sweet tea and barbecue, and Ashley reveals which states she refuses to live in.

ValuationPodcast.com - A podcast about all things Business + Valuation.
Hi, welcome back to the Valuation Podcast. I'm Melissa Gragg, and today we're diving into a topic that impacts nearly every aspect of our lives but is rarely discussed openly—our relationship with money.Whether you're navigating divorce, grieving the loss of a spouse, rebuilding after a major life transition, or simply feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, the truth is that money is never just about dollars and cents. It's tied to our identity, our beliefs, our upbringing, and often our deepest fears.Joining me today is Dr. Erika Rasher, Chief Financial Wellness Advisor at Beyond Finance and a recognized expert in financial therapy. Together, we're exploring how money stories, financial shame, inherited beliefs, and emotional spending habits shape our financial decisions—and more importantly, how we can rewrite those stories.We'll discuss financial trauma, scarcity versus abundance mindsets, financial coercive control, confidence after divorce, emotional healing, manifestation, and practical ways to create a healthier relationship with money. If you've ever wondered why financial decisions feel so emotional or how to build a stronger financial future after a major life change, this conversation is for you.Key Takeaways:1. Your Money Story Wasn't Created in IsolationMany financial behaviors originate from childhood experiences, family beliefs, cultural influences, and generational patterns. Understanding these inherited money stories is the first step toward creating a healthier financial future.2. Financial Shame Keeps People StuckGuilt says, "I made a mistake." Shame says, "I am the mistake." Dr. Rasher explains how financial shame can prevent people from seeking help, making informed decisions, and moving forward after financial setbacks.3. Major Life Transitions Create Financial Identity CrisesDivorce, widowhood, career changes, and retirement don't just change finances—they change identity. Rebuilding financial confidence requires addressing both the practical and emotional sides of money.4. Abundance Begins Before Wealth ArrivesPeople who constantly postpone happiness until they reach a financial goal often continue feeling scarcity even after achieving it. Learning to recognize everyday "glimmers" of abundance helps shift mindset and create lasting financial confidence.5. Financial Healing Requires Both Strategy and SupportFinancial recovery isn't just about budgeting, investing, or paying off debt. It also involves emotional healing, self-awareness, and surrounding yourself with professionals who can guide you through significant life transitions.Q&As from episode:1. What is financial therapy and how does it help people?Financial therapy combines financial planning with emotional and behavioral support. It helps people understand how beliefs, experiences, family influences, and emotions affect their financial decisions. Financial therapists help clients improve their relationship with money, reduce financial stress, and make healthier financial choices.2. How does divorce affect your relationship with money?Divorce often creates a major shift in financial identity. Many people experience financial anxiety, loss of confidence, money shame, or uncertainty about managing finances independently. Rebuilding financial confidence after divorce requires both practical financial planning and emotional healing.3. What is a scarcity mindset around money?A scarcity mindset is the belief that there will never be enough money, resources, or opportunities. People with a scarcity mindset often experience financial anxiety, fear-based decision-making, excessive saving, overspending, or difficulty enjoying financial success, regardless of their actual income or net worth.4. Why do people struggle with money even when they earn a high income?High-income earners often face financial challenges because income alone does not eliminate emotional spending, financial conditioning, social pressure, or money-related fears. Without healthy financial habits and emotional awareness, even high earners can accumulate debt and experience financial stress.5. How can someone create a more abundant money mindset?Developing an abundant money mindset starts with recognizing existing sources of abundance, practicing gratitude, identifying positive financial "glimmers," challenging limiting beliefs, and focusing on opportunities instead of scarcity. Consistent awareness and intentional action help create a healthier and more confident relationship with money.Dr. Erika Rasurehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/erikarasure/ericarashrasher@gmail.com Melissa Gragghttps://www.valuationmediation.com/https://www.youtube.com/@BusinessValuationStLSupport the show

Feeling anxious about money in your business? In this episode Raina, the Biblical Money Mindset Discipleship Coach, explores how childhood money messages: fear, scarcity, guilt, or silence can secretly sabotage Christian female entrepreneurs. She explains why these issues aren't just strategy problems and how they show up as hesitation, self-doubt, and playing small when it's time to price, sell, or celebrate success. Raina shares how renewing your mind with Scripture and discipleship can transform beliefs, restore peace, and enable you to earn more without fear, sell with confidence, and steward your calling with joy. She invites listeners to break generational money patterns through truth, prayer, and God's Word and points to resources to start that journey. ✨ Free 5-Min Money Mindset Quiz: https://form.jotform.com/CoachRaina/quiz
Did you grow up feeling like you were “bad with money” before you ever understood your ADHD?What if the overspending, the avoidance, the paralysis, the guilt are actually your nervous system doing exactly what it learned to do in response to fear, long before you ever had a bank account of your own?This week on The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast, I'm joined by Catherine Morgan, a global speaker, author, and founder of The Money Panel®.Catherine spent 17 years as a financial adviser, so she knows the technical side of money inside out.

She founded The Money Panel®, wrote the international bestseller It's Not About the Money, and has built a whole framework around the idea that our money patterns don't live in our spreadsheets... They live in our bodies.In this episode, we explore:Why money feels like a difficult conversation, and what it's really aboutHow fight, flight, freeze and fawn responses show up in our financial livesThe concept of "money as energy"Why separating our self-worth from our net worth is the first real stepWhy women tend to carry money stories differently than men and what that costs usHow financial stress shows up physically in the body, and how to work with it somaticallyWhy 2026 feels like a closing door, and 2027 a new one openingHow AI is reshaping careers and identity, and how to use it to spot the money patterns you're living insideHow EFT can help release fear-based money patterns that are stored in the bodyWhat it looks like to move beyond healing into becoming a true money visionaryCatherine brings a rare combination of financial expertise, deep psychological understanding, and lived experience to this conversation.

I chat with Abundance Community member Lisa, a therapist who just completed her trauma and money certification and is in the early stages of building out a niche around financial trauma. Together, we get specific about who this ideal client actually is: the woman who's doing all the right things on paper, has enough in her account, and still panics every time she opens her banking app. We cover how to position this work to financial planners, why a warm introduction beats cold outreach every time, and how to craft messaging that actually resonates with someone who's embarrassed to admit that money still scares them. Quick heads up: there are a few moments in this episode that may be a little harder to catch. If you miss anything, a full transcript is included so you can follow along.

Learn how to explore your money beliefs and take real steps toward saving and investing, even on a tight income. What's really behind your money habits? How can you build savings and invest if you're not earning much? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola discuss how your relationship with money shapes your financial behaviors and what you can do to change that narrative. Joined by Shannah Game, host of Everyone's Talkin' Money and author of Unraveling Your Relationship with Money, they begin with a discussion of how money beliefs form in childhood, how your body gives clues about financial stress, and how weekly “money dates” can help shift your mindset, spending, and long-term financial outcomes. Then, Katie, a listener navigating a career change and major life transition, joins Sean and Elizabeth to discuss budgeting on a lower income and how to make progress on both emergency savings and retirement. They discuss how to build an emergency fund with irregular income, when and how to roll over 403(b) accounts into an IRA, and how to invest small amounts without feeling discouraged.

Ep 207: Our Money Has Feelings: Healing Financial Scar Tissue & Money Trauma
On this episode of Healthy Waves from the Healthy Mind By Avik™ network, host Sayan sits down with certified financial planner Jennifer Edwards to unpack how money stress lives in the body long before it shows up in a bank statement. They break down trauma responses like fight, flight, freeze and fawn. how these patterns start in childhood. and why they quietly run the show in our income, debt, spending and relationships. Jennifer explains her seven layer financial wellness framework, why nervous system regulation matters more than “perfect budgeting”. and how couples can stop turning money fights into character assassinations. If you have a steady income yet still feel unsafe with money. this episode gives a direct lens on financial anxiety, shame cycles and emotional healing so you can build wealth without burning out your mental health. About the Guest: Jennifer Edwards is a certified financial planner and founder of Breakthrough Financial Wellness. She blends financial planning, financial psychology. trauma informed insight and a seven layer financial wellness framework to help people understand why they behave the way they do with money. not just what to do next. Her work focuses on money trauma, nervous system responses, couples and money, and building financial safety from the inside out. Key Takeaways: Financial stress usually starts in childhood long before we ever touch a paycheck. Our nervous system learns survival patterns around unmet needs and those same patterns later attach to money. Trauma responses like fight, flight, freeze and fawn can show up as overspending, hoarding, overworking, procrastinating on money tasks or people pleasing with money to feel safe in relationships. Emotions are “energy in motion”. If we never express them. that energy can sit in the body as tension, headaches, stomach issues, tight chests or overall dis ease that impacts daily functioning. Many money fights in couples are not about numbers. They are unhealed nervous system responses that get mislabeled as character flaws. like “selfish”, “lazy” or “disorganized”. which deepens conflict and shame. Understanding each partner's money story from childhood builds empathy. Talking about how money was handled at home, who held power and what felt unsafe creates context instead of blame. Jennifer's seven layer financial wellness model highlights the often ignored neurological layer and the societal layer. Culture pushes consumerism and constant comfort. which makes emotional spending and chronic debt more likely. Shame around money creates a downward spiral. Reducing self blame. seeing the role of family and culture. and getting objective support lets people make calmer decisions that support mental, emotional and financial health.

Before you can step fully into your wealthy future self, there's something we need to address together. Hidden within your consciousness, woven into your neural pathways, embedded in your cellular memory, are patterns of thinking and feeling about money that were never truly yours to begin with. These patterns didn't originate with you. They were handed down through generations, absorbed from your childhood environment, downloaded from a culture that teaches scarcity as reality and struggle as virtue. They've been operating in the background of your consciousness like invisible programs, limiting your capacity to receive and maintain the wealth that is your natural birthright. Today, we're going to identify these patterns, understand where they came from, and then dissolve them completely. We're going to clear the energetic pathways that have been blocked by fear, shame, guilt, and unworthiness around money. We're going to create space in your consciousness for wealth to flow as naturally as breath flows through your lungs.

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.

Sit in on this juicy conversation between Luis and interior designer Olga Naiman. They discuss creating rituals and spaces that can code our environment for what it is we seek more of in life. If we learn the somatics of what it is we want to feel, we can build it in to our home. First see your home with the eyes of a stranger. Feeling lonely? Look around for what carries a sense of loneliness. Release the items that are antithetical to your desires. Really want a hug instead of loneliness? Maybe find a perfectly cozy chair that feels like a cradled hug. An important part of the process is building pleasure hits of dopamine in to our home. Pleasure is the antidote to trauma. Lets turn our homes into medicine.

Click for story-time with Luis as he reads a favorite chapter that was cut from his soon to be published book, FOOD THERAPY (April 2026). He posits that processed food is disassociated from the land. Often GMO crops are altered to survive glyphosate, wrecking bio-diversity, increasing chemicals, and providing reduced nutrients. Two pounds of GMO altered soy beans contained 9mg of glyphosate. No wonder 81% of the US population has recent glyphosate exposure, an exposure that increases our risk of Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Cheap processed foods create conflict in the earth and disease in our bodies. Rather than depleting the soil and our bodies, organic crops, such as beans, add nitrogen back into the soil increasing biodiversity. Eating locally grown crops and animals is a symbiotic relationship that gives Luis purpose: to honor those nutrient dense plants and animals that feed and nourish his body. For him eating is a ritual prayer of gratitude to the earth. Eating close to the land allows his body to feel more, to tap in to aliveness, in all of it's discomforts. But what if you are feeling low? It's the body's way of asking to be held. As his friend Asha Frost says, "Feeling low? Go lower." Let the land hold you by eating balancing foods that connect one to the land in a relationship of reciprocity. What we eat isn't just about us, it's a vote for the land.
