In this episode of ‘It’s Not About the Money’ (formerly ‘In Her Financial Shoes’)  I explore the concept of inherited family trauma and its impact on financial success. I explain how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours around money are formed before we are even born, influenced by the traumas and experiences of our parents and grandparents. 

I share my journey of discovering somatics and how it has transformed my life. I discuss the signs and patterns of inherited family trauma, the reasons why some people suffer from it, and the importance of healing and creating positive experiences to overcome these traumas.

Key Takeaways:

• Inherited family traumas can impact our financial success, as our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours around money are formed before we are born.
• Signs of inherited family trauma include repeated events or failures at the same age, language and beliefs passed down through generations, and emotional and behavioural patterns.
• People suffer from inherited family trauma when the traumas are not resolved or talked about, leading to incomplete healing.
• Healing inherited family trauma involves creating positive experiences, practising self-love and receiving support, and detaching from outcomes.
• Self-compassion is essential when exploring and healing inherited family trauma.
