how to be financially responsible

In today's episode, we're going to talk about something really important but a bit tricky to chat about—preparing for when we're not around anymore. It's a bit like knowing winter is coming and getting our cozy clothes ready, but for life's big goodbye. I read this super helpful book called "A Beginner's Guide to the End," and it's filled with awesome tips on how to make sure we leave a little bit of ourselves behind, like treasure maps of memories for our kids and loved ones. I've been thinking a lot about how to do this in cool ways, like writing special letters to my kids and saving fun stories about our life together. It's like packing a lunchbox full of surprises for them to find later on.

In today's episode, I'm super excited to share my conversation with Aja Evans, a financial therapist who's going to help us understand something really important: financial therapy. Most of us need help with our money, and it's not just about learning tips and tricks. It's about changing how we think and feel about money. Aja tells us about her journey from working in mental health to discovering financial therapy. She shares her own financial ups and downs and how she learned to manage her money better. We talked about why it's hard to make good money choices and how therapy can help us get better at it. Aja also gives advice on finding a financial therapist and why it's important for our mental health.

About our guest:
Aja is a board-certified therapist, speaker, and consultant specializing in financial therapy. She is committed to assisting people in how they navigate the emotional side of money. Aja works to better incorporate how we speak, think, and build products for people that include both the logical and emotional parts of us. In addition to her practice, Aja has a column "Finance in Focus" with Square and is a consultant to #FinTech companies looking to integrate how we feel and behave with money.  She has been quoted in major news outlets such as The New York Times, Bloomberg, CNBC, and NerdWallet. Coined the “feel good financial therapist,” Aja is on a mission to get more people engaged in living their best life while attuning to their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors around money.
