#3: But What About DATING Your Money???

Welcome back my friend! In this episode of the UnFuckYourMoney Podcast, my guest, Sam Sundius, and I dive into neurodivergence, particularly ADHD and autism, and how it can affect our relationship with money. We explore the role of dopamine in decision-making, and the impact of capitalism on financial behaviors. Sam generously shares personal insights and strategies for navigating finances while embracing neurodivergent traits, emphasizing the importance of flexibility, emotional support, and deprogramming shame around money, with an emphasis on the importance of playfulness and creativity in managing money, challenging traditional financial POVs, advocating for a more flexible and trauma-informed approach to financial goal setting. TakeawaysNeurodivergence includes ADHD, autism, and other ways of being.Dopamine plays a crucial role in how we make financial decisions.Understanding one's neurodivergence can aid in self-advocacy.How financial struggles are often tied to societal expectations.How neurodivergent individuals excel in risk-taking and creativity.How shame can hinder financial progress and how liberating ourselves from financial shame can lead to a more playful relationship with money.How challenging the system can empower individuals to take control of their financial situations.And why self-discipline is not the only path to achieving financial goals; flexibility is key.A Quick Note from Sam on self diagnosis:Self-diagnosis (or, better put, self-identification) of neurodivergence is totally valid and widely accepted in the self-advocacy community. Medical diagnosis from a trusted and supportive provider is valuable for getting appropriate support and/or treatment---however, in the case of autism there can be severe, life-long legal ramifications for receiving a formal diagnosis, especially if you reside in one a state with a mandatory registry. (It shouldn't be this way, but it is.) So do your research and talk to your provider *before* seeking an evaluation about the risks and benefits a documented diagnosis could bring you or your child. Use discernment. Don't deny yourself or your child the care or accommodations that you need, but do take precautions in this batshit, ableist world.

Welcome back to the show! This week, I am SO excited to be bringing you this RICH money conversation with Felina Danalis, M.A., S.E.P. (she/her) who helps individuals and mission-driven organizations master resilience to stress, anxiety and trauma in order to have a more meaningful impact in the world in a culturally-sensitive, trauma-informed, body-based way. This conversation adds something that has been sorely missing on my show-  a global and systemic angle to money that has never been discussed before.Folks, a holistic, trauma informed conversation about money must include the various aspects of systemic and social traumas that impact how humans relate to money. "We can talk about what’s happening on an individual level but if we’re not also taking into account systemic trauma we can really cause a lot of harm to ourselves and the people we are serving.”This conversation also explores the idea of the exploitation of self, and our “inner colonizer” which is something I see a lot in myself and my clients.Felina and I also address the impact of human consumption on the climate, and the implications of consuming material objects on the global system, their cost on the environment and our wellbeing on the long run. We also bring up the idea of sufficiency and how important it is in our relationship to money as healers and coaches, as it pertains to our overall wellbeing, wealth and our collaboration with others. I hope you love this episode! Please reach out if you have any questions, and don't forget to leave a 5 star review! ❤️ Nadine Connect with Felina:Felina Danalis, M.A., S.E.P.

In his legendary book, The Psychology of Money, Morgan Housel states the difference between getting wealth and staying wealthy.“Getting money is one thing. Keeping it is another.” In other words, getting money and keeping money are two different skills! We’ve been too focused on our income in the online space, but what is rarely talked about is HOW wealth is created. Your income alone does not create wealth. Wealth is creating from the gap between what’s coming in and what’s going out. Today, I would love to invite you to evaluate your financial health by focusing on what’s going out rather than just what is coming in. By doing what I suggest in this episode, one of my clients was able to save over $1000.Here is a link to my free financial organizer if you need help with sorting out your finances and categorising your annual and monthly expenses for both personal and biz finances!Thanks for tuning in and keep you eyes peeled for the UnF*ck Your Money Blocks workshop coming soon!Nadine Explore my 3 month Wealth Program MOMENTUM ⭐️ HERE ⭐️Thank you for being here ❤️ ✨If this podcast is a helpful resource for you, please share it with your friends, on social media, and leave a 5-star rating and review.Connect with me on Instagram for free tips, inspo: https://www.instagram.com/nadinezumot/ ~Podcast theme song by The Jilted Irony
