How Money Trauma Shapes Your Life: Healing, Self-Worth & Starting Over with Shannah Game (The Velvet)
Description
In this powerful episode, Kelly sits down with Certified Financial Planner™ and Financial Trauma Specialist Shannah Game, whose new book Unraveling Your Relationship with Money reveals why money struggles are rarely just about money. They’re about identity, self-worth, emotional patterns, and the stories we’ve been carrying for decades.
Shannah opens up about the major life resets that forced her to look at money — and herself — in a completely new way. She and Kelly explore how trauma, childhood beliefs, fear, and shame quietly shape our financial lives, why so many women hit midlife and feel the urge to start over, and how hormones and menopause can impact everything from our spending to our sense of safety and stability.
They also dive into Shannah’s Heal–Plan–Build framework and the deeper emotional work required to shift money patterns that no budget can fix.
If you’re ready to understand the emotional side of money — or you’re in a season of rebuilding who you are — this conversation brings clarity, compassion, and a fresh sense of possibility.
