Description

Drawing on personal anecdotes and insights into how our brains work, they explore the connection between anger and a lack of clarity, the importance of awareness, and practical strategies for delaying gratification to make better choices. They also touch on identifying personal "money triggers" and understanding different money "personas."

Tune in to learn how to recognize your triggers, gain control of your emotional responses, and make more rational decisions for your financial well-being and stronger family relationships.

Key Takeaways:

✅ Anger and strong emotions can shut down the rational part of your brain, leading to poor financial decisions.

✅ Becoming aware of your emotional triggers, especially around money, is the first step to controlling your response.

✅ Practicing delaying gratification and seeking outside perspectives can help you make more informed choices rather than impulsive ones driven by emotion.
