ADHD Money Tips with Social Worker turned Financial Therapist Lindsay Bryan-Podvin

Geneen Roth

In this candid interview, Geneen shares her own money story about losing her life savings to Bernie Madoff and how it changed her relationship with money - and herself - forever. If you are seeking to bring a deeper sense of security to your money journey, if the question of enoughness resonates with you, I encourage you to do a gentle body check-in and listen in. Content Warning: Please be aware that while this interview is a candid conversation about our intimate relationships with money, enoughness, and ourselves, relationship with food, as well as disordered eating behaviors, do come up along the way. If today’s teaching is not right for you, please know I see you and always encourage you to honor your needs and well-being first and foremost. You’ll hear: - What Geneen learned from her lived experiences with scarcity, abundance, and losing everything more than once.- Why Geneen struggled with feeling disconnected from truly receiving (and spending!) the money she earned.- How the money beliefs Geneen inherited from her father helped her save even in times of scarcity - and kept her from being present with what she had.- Why trying to change “undesirable” behavior keeps you from getting curious about what you believe and why you behave the way you do.- How Geenen overcame catastrophic financial loss and found enoughness within.Find out more here: baritessler.com/2023/06/what-is-enoughnessAlso, heads up: This is an older interview from 2013, and the audio quality is not so good.

Exploring Enoughness and True Security with Author of Lost and Found, Geneen Roth

Dear Money Adventurer,Sometimes, as we move deeper into our relationship with money, we find that this work brings up old wounds or painful emotions that we thought we had healed.These moments are a testament to your mindful awareness and personal growth, yet their unfolding can feel disorienting and overwhelming.Finding yourself moving through painful histories while also simultaneously trying to learn new practical money skills can feel like the ground is giving way beneath your feet.You might feel like a child again, yearning for care and support amid difficulty, longing for safety and stability that you cannot provide yourself.In the midst of these truths lies another: in turning inward to bring awareness and compassion to the places where we feel unsafe, we can learn to cultivate a deeper sense of inner safety to ground us through life’s ebbs and flows.The somatic term for this feeling-safe-in-your-body-no-matter-what is “self-regulation.” – Just as the name suggests, it is a gift that we can cultivate for ourselves.I’m going to share three of my favorite somatic practices to help you foster a sense of internal safety as you navigate your money journey.These body-based exercises are simple, yet profoundly powerful.When you find yourself struggling with money stress, discomfort, or any big emotion, these personal practices can help you feel supported as you learn to self-regulate with compassion and gentle curiosity.Let me show you how.More here: baritessler.com/podcast

10 Things Your Financial Therapist Wants You To Know

Earlier this summer, I had the joy and privilege of interviewing Annie Schuessler, a fellow therapist, Art of Money alum, and host of the phenomenal podcast, “Rebel Therapist.” When Annie first started her private therapy practice, she struggled with her mindset around money, with not knowing how to build her business, and how to balance her desire to help folks heal while also supporting her family.Twenty years later, Annie has found her spark, mentoring therapists to build ethical, sustainable businesses that honor their passions, the way they want to show up, and the work they want to do in the world.

What can I say? Bari is someone who is so lovely you can’t decide if you want her to be your therapist, your best friend, your mom or your money coach! I have gained lots of wisdom from listening to her stories and interviews. Wonderful and inspiring show.

Amazing!

A great approach to money but as a fellow podcast I love the quality work they put into the show.  Great information wrapped in well done editing and production.

Outstanding information…Incredible Production!

Art of Money Podcast

In this Episode, I interview Michael Bovee, the Founder of the Consumer Recovery Network. He’s a family man and debt geek. Super geek, actually, but he promises to use his superpower for good because most people need help when it comes to debt and credit.

Debt Triage in the time of Covid-19

In this final episode of the Art of Money podcast’s first mini-season, Bari shares some of the core tools and practices from her methodology, which were designed to help you solve your biggest money problems. Some are mindfulness and body-based, some are intimate and chocolatey, and some are just plain smart...but they’re all gentle and ready for you to use, lickety-split. Bari shares the story of one of her biggest failures in business, and how she turned it into one of her biggest wins. You’ll also hear real-life stories from her students about how they use these tools (including what happened when one woman’s “inner teenager” threw a tantrum in the Apple Store...and the genius way she handled it).Show Notes: https://baritessler.com/5

If you’re new to me and all of this Art of Money stuff, you may not know what I mean by doing a “body check in” and why that has anything to do with anything about money.Well, this little technique may not sound like much, but this simple little exercise has changed not only my relationship to money, but has done the same for the thousands of people that have put the Art of Money work into practice in their lives. (Turns out it also comes in handy if you lose your way while speaking on stage, as I found out at the Lincoln Center.)If you’re reading this, it probably means you’re interested in improving your money life in some way. If that’s true, you’re in luck. After helping people improve their relationship with over the last 19 years, one thing has become super obvious: the easiest, fastest way to change your relationship with money is by becoming aware of the emotions and sensations in your body when the topic of money comes up, either in your mind or in conversation with someone (like your sweetie.)If I could make a wish and have you walk away from this series of Money Mocha posts with just one thing, it would be this: that you learn to do a body check-in and remember to use it the next time you feel a money challenge come up for you.Learning to do a body check-in is pretty simple. It’s like a quick mini meditation that grounds your awareness in your body and allows you to find clarity within the sometimes murky emotions around money.But here’s the thing, and this is super important: the body check-in is something to be practiced before, during, and after any moment of working on your money life. This isn’t a “one and done” kind of a tool. It’s something to be practiced all the time during daily money interactions, money decisions, or in money conversations. I’ve made a short guided audio recording for you to make it easy to learn. Just press play below and we can do a quick body check-in right now. And then next time a challenging emotion comes up around money? Remember this little exercise and give it a try. It has worked wonders for the thousands of folks that have learned it in my Art of Money methodology:

Jennifer Lee

I always smile a little when someone I’m interviewing says,“Oh, Bari … I can’t believe I’m sharing this with you!”Truth? It happens pretty often. Not because I have some kinda sorcery. And I always make sure my interviewees are comfortable with sharing what we’ve recorded, afterwards.This is the magic of creating a safe space to get real, get vulnerable, and get brave about money.Because the truth is, we all deal with money. We all have some sort of shame about it, at least at some point in our lives. Most of us have never been taught how to manage it (let alone our emotions around it). And (here’s the kicker)... When we get brave and get honest about money with each other...healing happens.In today’s Money Memoir (our second to last), I’m talking to Jennifer Lee.Many of you know her from her Right Brain Business Plan (for creative entrepreneurs).
