EPISODE 258

How childhood dynamics (and birth order) shape your money today

So much of how we relate to money today was shaped long before we ever earned a dollar.

In this week’s Chill & Prosper, I’m diving into childhood money stories - the subtle, often unspoken experiences that quietly influence how safe, worthy, and capable we feel around money as adults.

This is our final topic in Love and Money month and looks closely at how childhood and family relationships shape our beliefs about love, money, and self-worth.

We talk about:
✨ the impact of divorce, bankruptcy, or financial instability
✨ how birth order can affect responsibility, risk, and self-trust
✨ how over-compensating and under-compensating show up in adulthood
✨ why self-love and compassion are the real keys to healing money patterns
✨ and why siblings from the same family can grow up with wildly different money beliefs

This episode isn’t about blaming your past - it’s about understanding it, so you can choose differently now.
