In this conversation, Lucia Knight talks with Barney Whiter, The Escape Artist, about the beliefs and anxieties that can make staying put feel safer than making a change.
Barney explains why status, lifestyle expectations, debt and financial uncertainty can contribute to a “freeze” response — and why getting clear on your actual financial position can help you make better decisions about what comes next.
