Finance & Affirmations

There are many wellness deserts in the United States - the lack of resources and programming for your well being. Mental health resources, exercise, food, so much for your wellness is missing.

I speak with Sierra Carter who in 2018 founded The Zen Bin, simply because she wanted to create something she could be a part of. Sierra shares how those who are in survival mode typically are also in financial crisis. Sierra explains why affirmations are an integral part of the Zen Bin curriculum, and she offers her vision on how the Zen Bin functions to eliminate wellness deserts.

We conclude our conversation with the Rev. Dr. Bridget Piggue, director of Spiritual Health at Emory University in Midtown Atlanta. We raise the question, 'what rules did you learn about money and how are they currently showing up for you?'

We talk about some of the conflicting theological messages we receive from the church and how those messages can create distortions of information in our bodies. Dr. Piggue also offers the ACRONYM FIERCELY as a healing model to guide us toward self awareness.

I speak with Rhonda Brown, educator and author of two children's books, 'Creation That's Me' and 'Created To Be, Yes It's Me!' Rhonda talks about fulfilling a lifelong dream to become an author in spite of humble beginnings. Rhonda explains how she had to strategically manage her finances to get her books completed.

Rhonda discusses why it was important for her to create a children's book that included black and brown children, and how the affirmations she received as a child helps her to affirm the children she teaches.

I speak with the Rev. Dr. Bridget Piggue, Director of Spiritual Health at Emory University in midtown Atlanta.

We discuss how this 'inner knowing' of self-literacy informs the choices you make. We explore how the financial messages we get from childhood into adulthood get mapped in our bodies and drive our daily decisions. We also discuss how affirmations can start the mental remapping we need to lead us to self awareness.

Finance & Affirmations affect every aspect of our lives. We have all been affirmed positively or negatively. We have all had a financial education. It may not have been formal but it absolutely informs how we think about money and how we manage our finances. In this podcast we will explore the intersection of Finance & Affirmations from a personal, social and global perspective. In every episode I will offer you a positive affirmation that you can take along with you on your daily journey.

So join me twice a month for a conversation about Finance & Affirmations. Blessings.
