Is Your Money Story Controlling Your Life?

Описание: Money is one of the great taboos we're not supposed to talk about. And that silence is costing you more than you think.

In episode 195 of The Empowered & Embodied Show, Kim Romain and Louise Neil get real about the money stories quietly running the show: the scarcity thinking, the shame spirals, the questions of worthiness that keep us stuck in the same patterns, year after year.

We unpack why breaking through financially isn't a numbers game... it's an identity game. And why the work of healing your relationship with money is inseparable from the work of knowing who you are.

We also call out the predatory tactics that exploit your money stories, the systemic reasons women in particular have been kept financially disempowered, and why talking openly about money isn't just necessary... it's healing.

If money has more of a hold on your life than you'd like to admit, this conversation is for you.
