2 Great Groups to Join!

What if money didn’t have to feel like a struggle?


Most people think that being in control of their dollars is just about cutting back or having more willpower—but that’s not how your brains work. The truth is, it isn’t about discipline. It’s about how our brains are working. When you understand how your brain responds to money, you can actually make managing money feel manageable and even enjoyable. When you can understand how your current behaviors are not only based on your current situations, but informed by all of the life you have already lived.


I’m leading a 6-week Women’s Financial Wellness Group where we will learn tools that are backed by science and proven to work in real life. No boring advice—just powerful, actionable strategies that will change how you think about your relationship with money. If you have any clients that you know may be interested in this group, please pass the information along!


Here’s a sneak peek at a few of the tools that we will cover:

✅ Reframe past money behavior and its impact on your future self: A simple mindset shift that makes past decisions make more sense, reducing shame.

✅ Learn about scarcity and abundance and its effects: Stop relying on willpower and use psychology to understand how our body responds to cues of deprivation.

✅ Learn how the nervous system plays a role in our behavior with money: A proven trick to curb impulse spending and keep more money in your pocket is knowing how you are feeling and caring for your emotional state before spending.

✅ Basic personal finance education: Understanding how money has evolved: Cash ➡️ Check ➡️Debit Card ➡️Credit Card ➡️ Etc. can help support why it has felt overwhelming to understand.


The best part? You don’t have to change everything at once. Just a few small tweaks can make a massive difference in your financial future.

Hey There Mom

Hey There, Mom. The best Gift you Could Give Yourself and Your Children is a Regulated Nervous System.

By Stacy Peterson • June 1, 2024
Its Saturday, you don’t have much going on, but you really want to get out of the house. So you load the kids up and head over to Target. You walk in and grab your favorite Starbucks drink and a few cake pops for the kids before settling into a small peruse around the “Dollar Spot” and though you went in for one specific thing for teacher week coming up next week you ended up getting a collection of gifts for your kids, cute décor that was on sale and those throw pillows you have been wanting for a while now.

Exploring Financial Therapy: What is it, and Why do I Need to Heal my Relationship with Money?

By Stacy Peterson • May 29, 2024
When I began working as a therapist in 2015 everything felt new and fresh, but everything was also scary and uncertain. I could feel that there was excitement in my clients who chose me to work with them and that they had hope that something inside of them could change in a meaningful way.
