In this episode, we’re diving deep into the emotional and psychological layers of our relationship with money with financial therapist Lindsay Bryan-Podvin. Lindsay is a financial therapist, social worker, author, and speaker who helps people improve their relationship with money—without shame or guilt. As the founder of the financial wellness business Mind Money Balance, she blends psychology and personal finance to guide individuals and organizations toward financial confidence.

Lindsay shares how her personal and professional journey led her to bridge mental health and money. We explore why personal finance advice often misses the mark—and how understanding your money mindset can make all the difference.

You’ll hear why so many of us fall into cycles of avoidance or perfectionism when it comes to finances, and how small, intentional steps can shift everything. Lindsay also gets real about navigating recession anxiety, building an emergency fund without overwhelm, and tapping into community resources. Whether you’re stuck in analysis paralysis or ignoring your bank app, this episode will leave you feeling more grounded, empowered, and ready to take your next small step with money—on your own terms.
