How can the Jewish community live with wealth without the addiction of consumption jeopardizing our mental health?

Meet Dr. Debra Alper who wrote a fantastic article on the topic here: https://18forty.org/articles/affluence-money-mental-health/

We had an enlightening conversation with Dr. Alper, a seasoned clinical psychologist, who dives deep into the complex relationship between financial stress and mental health.

She sheds light on how societal pressures and personal financial management can significantly impact our psychological well-being. She offers practical advice for families on educating young adults about finances without instilling fear.

She explores the concept of self-worth beyond financial success, providing valuable insights into living a more fulfilled and balanced life.

Whether you're dealing with financial anxiety or looking to understand the broader societal impacts of wealth, this discussion is a must-watch!
