EP: 010 Breaking Money Silence w/ Wealth Psychology Expert Kathleen Burns Kingsbury

January 23, 2024 Jim Grace CFP®️

On this episode I discuss the often difficult subject of "Talking About Money" with Wealth Psychology Expert, Author and Coach Kathleen Burns Kingsbury.

Through her work Kathleen inspires women, the next generation, and financial professionals to break their money silence and live richer, more satisfying lives.

THINGS YOU WILL LEARN:

  • Kathleen describes the shift she has seen in the financial services industry over the years and how advisors are now more open to discussing how clients are feeling and their attitudes towards money.  She even admitted that early in her practice she avoided using the word "emotions" when coaching advisors because it was "off putting".
  • Why it can be difficult to talk about money in the first place and how to go about having better conversations about finances with your spouse or partners.
  •  We talk about the unique challenges that women can face when talking about money, especially those that find themselves in the position of female breadwinner. 
  •  Kathleen shares her thoughts on how women can go about determining what they are worth and how to ask for what they deserve in negations.
  •  How to go about changing your "money talk mindset".


... And much more.
