About this book
A handbook to disempower the trauma standing between individuals and their financial wellbeing
The Trauma of Money: Mapping Compassionate Pathways to Healing Financial Trauma and Disempowering Financial Shame offers a comprehensive exploration of the Trauma of Money Method™, an innovative six-phase approach to decrease shame and increase discernment around money. It spotlights the myriad causes of financial trauma, tracing its roots to their generational, relational, societal, and systemic origins, and guides readers in understanding how trauma directly impacts our financial behaviors. Changing the narratives that come with these traumas is the first step in recognizing that true financial literacy hinges on this foundational healing. This book includes research-based modalities to transform readers' approaches to finances, including somatic trauma healing, narrative therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, internal family systems, addiction recovery therapies, biomimicry, systems change and financial psychology. It also includes practical tools such as:
- Reflection questions and prompts to intentionally evolve our relationship with money and scarcity as well as tools for addressing financial shame
- Methods to identify and shift away from trauma responses like financial fawning, somatic exercises to regulate the nervous system, and ways to reprogram our subconscious
- Approaches to reclaim and deepen the commitment to our money values and integration activities that can be used with clients
The Trauma of Money: Mapping Compassionate Pathways to Healing Financial Trauma and Disempowering Financial Shame is an illuminating, effective resource for financial advisors and planners, mental health professionals, entrepreneurs, or anyone seeking to move out of automatic trauma responses and into their financial power.
