In this episode of Wealth Para Todos, host Rita-Soledad Fernández Paulino discusses the concept of parentification and its impact on financial security.Parentification occurs when children take on adult responsibilities prematurely, either instrumentally or emotionally.

The episode explores how this dynamic can both positively and negatively affect financial habits and attitudes in adulthood. Soledad shares personal experiences and offers five practical steps for healing from parentification, such as awareness, releasing over-responsibility, re-parenting, setting financial boundaries, and reframing wealth as collective care.

The episode also underscores the importance of self-care in achieving financial stability and encourages listeners to seek therapy, coaching, or other forms of support.
