    Episode 178: Financial Therapy: Healing Your Money Mindset
    In this special Mental Health Awareness Month episode of the Money & You podcast, host
    Michelle Perkins welcomes back Wendy Wright, a leading financial therapist and CEO of
    Financial Therapy Solutions. With her rare combination of expertise in both licensed therapy
    and money coaching, Wendy helps individuals and couples navigate the emotional roots of their
    financial stress and create empowered, healthy money relationships.
    Together, they explore how emotions—especially anxiety and shame—play a powerful role in
    how we interact with money. Wendy shares practical tips for approaching financial
    conversations with more emotional intelligence and less fear, whether with your partner or with
    yourself. She also discusses how to identify your emotional state before trying to “fix” money
    problems, and why you can’t make solid financial decisions while dysregulated.
    This episode blends psychology with personal finance, offering tools for self-awareness,
    calming strategies, and more intentional money conversations. If you would like to see/hear
    Wendy’s previous interview, see episode 112.
    00:00 – Reintroducing Wendy Wright: financial therapy explained
    06:20 – Couples and money: how differences create conflict
    12:45 – Why we avoid money and how shame plays a role
    20:00 – Tips for productive, emotionally safe money conversations
    26:35 – Practicing “emotional literacy” with money stress
    33:00 – From overwhelm to calm: journaling and regulation tools
    41:20 – How news and social media impact your financial mental health
    49:15 – Building sustainable money habits over time
    Key Takeaways:
    ● Financial Therapy = Money + Emotions: Financial struggles are often emotional, not
    just logical. Healing begins with emotional literacy.
    ● You Can’t Budget in a Panic: If you're dysregulated, don’t try to make money
    decisions. Calm first, then act.
    ● Journal or Talk It Out: Whether through writing or speaking aloud, processing your
    feelings about money helps untangle fear and create clarity.
    ● Shame Stops Progress: Decrease judgment and increase curiosity. You can be
    financially healthy without knowing everything about money.
    ● Conversations Need Structure: Use a timer and clear goals when discussing money
    with partners. Small, repeatable talks work better than big confrontations.
    ● Curate Your Media Intake: Negative news amplifies money fear. Be intentional about
    what and how much you consume.
