I like the poncho you wearing. Do you crotchet? 
And yes we were told "Where will the money come from?" or "You think money grows on tree?" Today I tell my children "I will not spend money on that at this time". No talk about lack or can not. Then they know that money is more about choice. Thank for being open.

@ceciliawayua9810

As a psychologist, I am thrilled to hear you tell us how the subconscious/unconscious affects our financial behavior. This is very informative and eye opening. Thank you.

@wangaringugi

There's truly power in storytelling, i always thought you were a rich kid 🤑 I'm inspired and encouraged

@manifestgood

Susan Thank YOU. I am completely locked in fear because of financial trauma and at 33 I'm finally realizing where my fear is rooted. Blamed family problems and so many other things. But the scarcity mindset, avoidance personality etc speaks so much to me. I deeply am in a poverty trauma state. Ruining relationships friends etc etc etc etc etc

@herewithfi

I think money&poverty trauma can also arise in adulthood in a season in which finances just don't seem to come together for a good couple of years and so one is forced to literally live from hand to mouth and just do with the bare minimum. It's a traumatizing experience both in childhood and adulthood. Totally loved your take on this topic, puts things into perspective.

@sharonjumba4648

I'm known in my family as a money horder, I hold on tight yet I grew up with plenty. I bet I'm fearful of what tough times can bring, so I'd rather hold my money closer to my chest....learning to loosen up.
You are a gem lady, keep soaring.

@MelissaKadra254

Just realizing my trauma is rooted in childhood lack (even though we weren't poor) and partially having self worth attached to material things. I'm deliberately working on the 2nd one but the 1st one will take time

@catherinenjau5615

I'm not sure if I'm normal, but I all the signs of money trauma mentioned here are exactly what I am going through. 🥺🥺

@favourafinni

What an eye opener, I think my poverty trauma started from childhood never having enough so I grew up becoming a chronic saver,  invested some money and lost it. Since then I've just been traumatized about investment or saving. I began to overspend my money bcus at the back of my mind i'm thinking that I may lose the money so it's better for me to just spend it. Basically I went from chronic saver to chronic spender. Both extremes have not been easy for me.

@autumnraigne

This was so good! I realize how much financial trauma I have, that I didn't even know. 🙏🏾

@dorahmulinge3800

I am an avoider. I pay with visa so as to shop however I want and I won't check the bank balance.
On point 2. Inaitwa kushtua umaskini😄 totally relate to that.
Leo I've commented a lot aki.
I'm growing, learning and healing 😊

@manifestgood

What's crazy is I have extremely uncomfortable about talking about money. But at the same time I overspend on trips to overcompensate for not having when I was a child BUT at the same time I Underspend horribly towards myself. Clothes are extremely old. Don't even get haircuts etc or do anything for self. Its wild hearing it from you because now my feelings have an understanding

@oportunakari6671

Financial and poverty trauma is so real for most of us, unconsciously affecting so much of our behavior, investments options, 
Now that am self aware of the triggers ,signs when they pop up when am making decisions .I try my best to equip myself with abundance affirmations.

@terrahillman151

You break Tis down in a very digestible and comprehensible way. Great job!

@PatriciaOgema

I totally relate with feeling like the poorest person in all settings .

@tushiyakey9677

I can relate to this episode. The trauma over money is way too high on me. I try to infest but not to my full potential. The trauma has caused me to lose a lot of money in the hands of people trusting they are the best than me just because they are doing better in finances. Thank you for the insight. It’s time for a turnaround.

@justsonia7863

I actually relate to you aki😫😫i guess am currently in that stage of 'money trauma' facing the real world is scary and adapting is really hard. But I know I've got it. Am working around my issues and believe all will be well.

@juliusmacharia3252

I have been having several debts and I have been feeling intimidated wherever I hear about money matters is discussed.But now I feel encouraged to find a solution to get out of debt head on.

@esthernjau4166

I totally understand where you're coming from,the 1st time i was asked how much i wanted to be paid,I said 15k.
It felt like 15million
