Description

We often think about Survivor Guilt as something that happens to survivors of accidents or natural disasters, but a financial twist also happens. Financial Survivor’s Guilt is a phenomenon where individuals feel guilty for their financial stability while others around them struggle. People who experience this might experience similar symptoms of traditional survivor guilt: racing thoughts, anxiety, and physical pain or discomfort. In this episode, I cover this phenomenon, and give listeners ideas for how to cope with it and dial down the intensity of those symptoms [Hint: it doesn’t involve giving away all of your worldly possessions and living in the woods].
