Our relationship with money runs deep. Are you thinking about your personal relationship with it? Like how you feel about earning, spending, saving, or maybe how it ties into self-worth, security, or even guilt?

Here are a few common dynamics people have with money:

  1. Security-based: Seeing money primarily as a way to feel safe, stable, and in control.
  2. Scarcity mindset: Feeling like there's never enough, no matter how much is earned or saved.
  3. Freedom-focused: Using money as a means to experience life, adventure, and choices.
  4. Avoidant: Feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from money and preferring not to think about it.
  5. Power/control: Using money as a way to feel influential, important, or in charge.
  6. Guilt/shame: Tying self-worth to financial status, often feeling undeserving or anxious around it.
