Episode 3377:
Dr. Lisa Firestone explores how our emotional history, especially early experiences with money, shapes our current financial stress and self-worth. She reveals how the "critical inner voice" hijacks our judgment, fueling guilt, anxiety, and self-sabotage, and offers practical tools for developing healthier financial beliefs and habits.

Quotes to ponder:
"The critical inner voice can cloud your judgment when it comes to money, because you are no longer making choices based on real, practical information."
"Don’t avoid your fears or try to self-soothe. Neither buying something you can’t afford nor denying yourself any little luxury will truly relieve you."
“The critical inner voice often creates conflict between couples when it comes to money.”
