On the Psychology of Money with Sarah Bennett-Nash

Today I’m exploring something that feels especially important right now: financial literacy, and more specifically, our relationship with money, value and financial wellbeing.

I’m joined by author and financial expert Sarah Bennett-Nash, @@sarahbennettnash whose debut book More Money, More Life opens up a much-needed conversation about the beliefs, stories and inherited patterns that shape the way we think about money.

After nearly two decades in financial services and global capital markets, including her time at Goldman Sachs, Sarah began asking why even smart, successful people can feel anxious, avoidant or stuck around money.

In our conversation, we discuss:

- Sarah’s journey from corporate finance to authorship
- Why money is never just about numbers
- The family stories and beliefs we inherit around wealth
- Her AAA framework: Awareness, Alignment and Action
- Small, practical steps towards greater financial confidence and freedom

I really enjoyed our conversation which focused on understanding the deeper emotional, psychological and practical layers of money, in order to make choices that feel more conscious, aligned and empowering around money.
