I really appreciate this perspective! Many of us were never "bad with money" but we were part of a system that discriminated against some quality of our being.
I'm embracing a new attitude that acknowledges that I'm actually awesome with the resources that were provided/gifted to me. I keep learning and growing, and I don't need to be wealthy in the capitalist sense to feel like I'm actually great at making money decisions. I get to decide what that means for me. Also, your book helped me a great deal with that too! ❤️
Dana, this is spot on. Shame is one of the greatest barrier to financial progress.
When financial struggles are treated as personal failings, we ignore the power of mindset and the systemic forces at play. Achieving genuine financial wellbeing (a life where money serves your happiness and longevity) IMO demands self-knowledge, not blame.
Keep encouraging people to ask 'how does this work?' That clarity is the first step toward the essential balance you need for a life well-lived.
