And those are the things that get people caught up because they go, oh, I'm just not going to do that.

But they don't stop to examine the greater reason why.

Yeah, because it's quick.

I mean, you think about the amount of thoughts that go through our minds all day long.

And the way I explain it, it's like a ticker tape.

If you ever watch a major news outlet, there's the broadcaster who's telling you information, but then there's a little ticker tape at the bottom that's giving even more information or even a little bit more of the headline down below.

And these emotions for us, they're like ticker tapes in the background.

We're hearing all these big messages all day long and we're processing them, but the ticker tape in our mind is how we grew up and what our relationships look like and what our traumas are and dah, dah, dah, dah, dah.

And we're filtering it through that and very, very,

Not often enough do we stop and read the ticker tape and go, oh, my ticker tape is telling me I'm not safe.

Remember what your ex-husband did?

Remember what that last guy – you know, right?

And all of that is feeding into how we manage our money and how we receive advice about managing our money.

So a long time ago, I heard the phrase, understanding that there's a problem is half of solving the problem, right?

It's just this idea that once light is shed on it, that really is 50% of the battle.

So for a lot of people just hearing me say, hey guys, money is emotional.

they stop and go, oh, no one ever said that.

They told me they were giving me decimal points and percentages.

So just that initial unlock is enough to make you go, huh, well, I wonder.

And then in the book, What No One Tells You About Money, I start to walk through all of these different examples and all of these examples of emotions that we see playing out in money.
