I'm wrestling with a question that's been on my mind lately: Have we given money a job it simply can't do?
There is a complicated relationship between money and our emotions, and how we sometimes hope numbers and bank balances will take away our fear or anxiety, even though those are emotions, not equations.
Inspired by Carl Richards' book "Your Money," I talk about how our financial lives and our feelings are tangled together, especially for those of us in the thick of parenting, where there's never really an "off season." With insights from thought leaders like Morgan Housel, I explore the challenge of defining your goals and finding what "enough" really means, even as the goalposts keep moving.
If you've ever wondered why having more money doesn't quite silence your worries or how your money beliefs shape your life, you're not alone.
