Connect With Steven Twitter: @knowmoneysteve Instagram: @stevenmhughes Facebook: knowmoneysteve Key Takeaways Stephen M. Hughes and Tiffany discussed the four components of financial wellness: Awareness, Education, Action, and Mindfulness. Awareness is being in the right frame of mind to make conscious decisions about money. Education is a greater understanding of financial concepts beyond the basics, such as budgeting and savings. It includes more complex topics like insurance, estate planning, investment strategies, etc. Action involves taking steps to improve one's own financial situation through research or professional guidance; it is considered the most critical step in financial wellness by the speaker. Mindfulness is an understanding that our emotions are intertwined with money matters; it contributes to overall well-being and should be considered when making decisions about finances.

Financial trauma is a real thing. Financial shame is real. And financial abuse is real. And these all influence our money habits, and the way we feel about money.Quite often my parent's desire to control my money, take over my finances, charge me rent to live in their house once I graduated high school, and their own endless financial struggles began to pile up. I started off learning really toxic financial habits. I also entered into a relationship after my first year of college where I was constantly financially shamed by my abuser and my financial moves were heavily controlled – so much so I had a high-balance secret credit card so I could buy coffee without my abuser knowing. Needless to say, I've got financial trauma. I feel a ton of shame around money. In this episode, we're going to break down where shame and financial trauma comes form and exactly how you can heal from it. I'm joined by Steven M. Hughes, a financial therapist, and Sarah Li Cain, CFP candidate and best known for her works in Fortune, CNBC Select, and Redbook.

I am living with bipolar. It's the lovable sludge monster living on my shoulder every day and as I'm getting to know it, it blooms into something new. My experience, as well as the four women interviewed throughout this episode, is personal and different from others. Personal bipolar experiences are not shared anywhere outside of private conversations–making bipolar a taboo topic and a sensitive one to discuss. So, just like we're publicly talking about periods now (and the real truth about them), we are going to talk about bipolar. Take care while listening to this episode as sensitive topics such as suicidal ideation, medication, and we will mention frequently triggering content throughout the episode.

Show Notes: I found out about the great things Steven was doing with financial literacy through Instagram from his Know Money Inc. brand. I saw he'd just finished a BankRoll Summit at college and loved his focus on financial literacy. Today, I invited him on to talk about his efforts reaching Gen Y and Z and specifically how the financial services industry can do a better job addressing their financial needs. We are able to dive into... Steven's money story What types of conversations about money are resonating with today's college students? How can the financial services industry heal the broken trust with Gen Y and Z? How interested is Gen Y & Z in the concept of financial coaching? How are you incorporating the findings from your summits into those coaching/trainings? Has the student loan crisis caused a shift in the mindset of the next generation and how they view borrowing?
