Money Skills For Therapists

174: How to Plan for Your Future Self with James Alexander


Listen Later

What does it really mean to play your own financial game?

In today’s episode, I’m joined by James Alexander, a certified financial planner who brings both heart and math to the world of money. James and I explore the importance of defining your personal version of financial success, and we discuss why comparing yourself to others can pull you away from what actually matters to you.

We talk about how to start with your values and vision, and then build a plan to back into those dreams using both emotional awareness and clear financial strategy. James shares a practical framework for allocating your income (his 20/60/20 rule), and we also talk about the emotional weight of debt, managing motivation, and teaching kids how to understand and use money.

This episode is for you if you’ve ever felt behind, overwhelmed, or unsure where to even begin with planning your financial future. This conversation offers both practical advice and deep mindset shifts to help you move forward on your own terms.
