Untangle Your Emotions from Your Money
Monday, 5 January, 2026
Ever make a financial decision and later wonder, why did I do that? Maybe it wasn’t logic that drove it—it was emotion. On this episode of “Money Sense”, host Karen Ellenbecker sits down with Aja Evans, a board-certified therapist, speaker, and author specializing in financial therapy, to explore the deep connection between money, emotion, and mental health. Aja shares insights from her own financial awakening and explains how financial therapy can help individuals and families navigate the stress, shame, and patterns that influence financial decisions. She also discusses practical steps for couples to communicate about money, build trust, and create healthy financial habits together. Listeners will learn how to identify emotional triggers around money, understand the impact of chronic stress on financial and personal well-being, and take actionable steps to develop a healthier relationship with their finances. Aja's book, “Feel Good Finance”, is available now and offers tools to reflect on money habits, understand money narratives from childhood, and begin untangling emotions from financial decisions. You can find it at ajaevanscounseling.com or in stores and online retailers like Amazon. #FinancialTherapy #MoneyMindset #MentalHealth #WealthWellness #FinancialWellness #MoneySensePodcast #FeelGoodFinance ELLENBECKER INVESTMENT GROUP Presenter of the Money Sense Podcast.
