Unpack that Money Baggage

The Work IN to move out of stress, tension & anxiety

Feb 28 2022 • 26 mins

My original intention with this podcast was to speak specifically to fitness professionals however what I’ve found is that many of our issues overlap no matter what industry you work in. (get it Work IN?)

That makes sense because we’re all human and we each have our own Work IN to discover better ways to deal with our internal state so that we can be better humans, better friends, better employees and better employers. And the source of all of that personal and professional improvement and development starts with an understanding of where we are in our own state. So I think that’s why there’s so much overlap in our discussions here. And today will be no different.


Last week we heard from Dennis Harhalakis money coach from Cambridge money coaching about how emotions connect to our money behavior. If you missed that episode it came out of February 21 and is # 65. Check it out when you get a chance.


Today I wanted to talk about money baggage. During our conversation last week Dennis brought up the point that a lot of how we treat money, how we feel about money and business and our behaviors around money are rooted in our childhood experiences or lack of experience and influenced by how we saw others handling money.


That’s our money baggage. And that baggage can weigh us down and hold us back financially in both our professional and personal lives. It becomes a subconscious filter through which we make all our money decisions including how we save, how we spend, how we invest, IF we invest, and how we price our services.
