It’s Not a Money Problem: The Hidden Legacy Wounds Running Your Financial Life
(Part 1 of a 4-Part Series on Money, Power, and Capacity)
In this episode, I’m inviting you into a different conversation about money.
For many smart, capable, service-driven women, the tension around money isn’t about strategy, budgeting, or mindset. It’s about what your nervous system learned long before you ever had words for it.
I introduce the concept of legacy wounding and explore how inherited patterns of survival, scarcity, and protection continue to shape your relationship with money today, even when you’re objectively doing well.
In this episode, we explore:
- Why money can still feel charged even when things are “fine”
- What legacy wounding is and how it lives in the nervous system
- How ancestral and generational trauma shapes financial stress
- Why money often represents safety, power, and survival, not just income
- Why mindset work alone doesn’t work when your body is in survival
If you’ve ever wondered why money still feels heavy, tight, or stressful despite your competence and success, this episode will help you understand why and offer a more compassionate place to begin.
I’ll leave you with two questions to gently sit with:
What financial patterns might your body be carrying that didn’t start with you?
What could become possible if you no longer had to live from that inheritance?
