Why Financial Stress Starts Deeper Than Your Bank Account with Tanner Link
Wednesday, 17 June, 2026

What if the way you manage your money isn't all that different from the way you manage your health? In this episode of Field Notes, host Heather Moon sits down with financial planner Tanner Link for a fascinating conversation about the surprising parallels between financial wellness and functional medicine. Just like chronic health issues rarely start with symptoms alone, financial stress often stems from deeper patterns hiding beneath the surface — impulse behaviors, lack of awareness, misaligned priorities, and operating on autopilot. Together, Heather and Tanner unpack how budgeting, mindful spending, long-term habits, and small daily decisions compound over time, proving that whether you're healing your body or building financial freedom, sustainable change doesn't come from quick fixes… it comes from understanding the root cause and making better choices consistently. Connect with Tanner here: https://www.linkassetmgmt.com/ Key Takeaways • Financial health and physical health follow the same principle: symptoms often point to deeper underlying patterns. • Budgeting isn't a restriction — it creates awareness around unconscious habits and spending behaviors. • Small daily decisions compound over time, whether you're building wealth or improving health. • Impulse spending can quietly sabotage long-term financial stability, just like unhealthy habits impact long-term wellness. • True financial freedom isn't about becoming rich — it's about reaching a place where money no longer controls your peace of mind.
