Episode notes

In this episode of the Smart Money Parenting Show, hosts Chad Willardson and Scott Donnell delve into the topic of 'money trauma,' a form of childhood trauma that often goes undiscussed. They examine how attitudes and behavior around money during childhood can significantly shape people's financial behaviors in adulthood. The pair warns that without addressing and healing from this trauma, people may continue to perpetuate harmful financial habits, possibly passing them down to the next generation. They also stress the need to see money as a tool rather than a status symbol or a measure of self-worth. The hosts encourage listeners to reflect on their own 'money trauma', to discuss it with their children and to endeavor to lead by a better example financially.
