"You are not bad with money. You are a human with money."

If you've ever set a budget and still overspent, avoided checking your bank account, or felt a sudden wave of anxiety at the mention of debt. Then this episode is for you. Because the problem was never that you didn't know enough about money. The problem is that money was never just math.

In Episode 2, we dig into the research that most financial advice skips entirely: the psychology, neuroscience, and emotional history that quietly drive nearly every money decision you make. Nobel Prize-winning economist Daniel Kahneman found that our financial decisions are roughly 90% emotional. So why are we still treating money like a logic problem?

We cover the four "money scripts" you probably absorbed in childhood without realizing it, how financial trauma can keep your nervous system in a state of fight-or-flight every time you open your wallet, why money arguments in relationships are almost never really about money, and what it actually looks like to start healing your relationship with finances, not just managing them.

Hello! Welcome to my little corner of the internet. I truly appreciate that you're here with me.

My name is Michael, and I am the host of the show. In this episode, I talk briefly about my journey as to why I am starting this podcast, what it's about and what to expect from it.

Thank you again for listening to my first episode of Quiet Minds, Rich Lives. Be sure to stay tuned for more shows in the future, as I am going to release them weekly.
