It’s time to get our therapy on in this episode. This is probably one of the most important episodes we’ve done because it hits at the heart of what we all feel about money - it’s stressful and causes a great deal of anxiety. There are countless studies that show that money is the #1 cause of stress and anxiety and most of us are left to figure out how to deal with it in a world where talking about money is still a taboo topic. As our guest, psychiatrist Dr. Ellen Vora, author of a new book called The Anatomy of Anxiety says, anxiety, it’s all in your head, right? Wrong. Money anxiety is a complex topic with many onion layers and as Ellen says, anxiety often begins first in our bodies. We dive into this complex topic of anxiety and talk about what goes on in your body when you’re anxious, how to make decisions when you’re feeling anxious, tips and techniques to manage your anxiety, and how to figure out what your money anxiety is actually telling us. Are you ready for a little financial therapy? Let’s start talkin’. LINKS The Anatomy of Anxiety book Ellen's website Ellen on Instagram SPONSORS Thanks to ShipStation for sponsoring the show.
