How often do you pause and reflect on your personal financial identity? In this enlightening episode, I interview award-winning author Keisha Blair about her pioneering "holistic wealth" approach. Keisha shares her powerful story of overcoming profound grief and trauma by developing a framework that integrates financial education with emotional resilience, physical health, and mindfulness.

After being widowed with two young children, Keisha realized that even with careful financial planning, the mental and emotional toll can be crippling without a holistic approach. Her unique money personality quiz helps individuals understand their core financial identities as risk-takers, minimalists, or elsewhere on the spectrum. This self-awareness is key to aligning spending with values and overcoming unhealthy patterns, like impulsive ADHD spending.
