Why Your Self-Worth Is Not Your Net Worth: The Real Cost of Financial Shame (Part 1)
We need to talk about the belief that’s quietly running the show in so many of our financial lives: the idea that your bank account determines your value as a person.
In Part 1 of this two-part solo episode, we’re digging deep into the emotional roots of this toxic money narrative—and why it’s costing you far more than just dollars.
If you’ve ever avoided checking your bank balance out of shame, felt behind because of debt, or judged your worth by your income—this episode is for you.
You’ll walk away with:
- A clear understanding of how our culture ties money to identity—and why that’s so damaging
- Examples of how financial shame sabotages your decisions, relationships, and confidence
- Validation that your money story is not your fault—but it is something you can rewrite
- The first powerful mindset shift you need before making any lasting financial change
This episode is the foundation—the truth-telling, soul-stirring conversation that sets the stage for healing.
In Part 2, we’ll dive into the actionable tools and practices to reclaim your worth and start making empowered money choices.
