276: Owning Your Financial Awareness and Talking about Money with Kids with Financial Therapist, Aja Evans

In this episode with financial therapist Aja Evans, we discuss what Aja does in her profession and how taking ownership of her own financial education led her to her career. She talks about what she most often sees in her financial therapy practice, the common misconceptions people have about managing finances, and explains why we feel shame around money. She also shares how we can start talking to kids about money, why learning to spend is as equally important as learning to save, and how money and self-esteem are linked. Finally, we talk about “the thrill of the chase” we feel as consumers, how we can slow ourselves down when we impulsively spend, how we can set boundaries around money and other people, and more.Key Takeaway / Points:What is a financial therapist?Why and how Aja became a financial therapistWhat Aja sees most often in her financial therapy practiceThe most common misconceptions people have about managing their financesWhy do we feel shame around money?How can we start talking to children about money?Why learning how to spend is as equally important as learning how to saveA practical tip for having kids interact with moneyHow money and self-esteem are linkedOn the thrill of the chase as consumersOn scarcity mindsets fueling our spendingHow to slow yourself down during an impulse spendOn setting boundaries around money with other peopleHow Aja fills her cup Order Aja’s book “Feel-Good Finance” hereThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
