Facing the Money Anxiety: A Psychologist's Perspective on Bitcoin and Personal Finance

In this podcast episode, Clinical Psychologist Vivian shares her insights on anxiety around money and finance, the importance of financial literacy for women, and her journey with Bitcoin.

From her own experience in private practice, she shares the impact of financial knowledge on the autonomy, empowerment, and sense of safety for women. Vivian emphasizes the need for women to understand and manage their own finances to avoid falling into compromising or disempowering situations.

She shares insights about the anxiety and stress that surrounds managing finances, relating it with her own experience of running a business. Vivian talks about the need for taking risks, accepting the reality, and facing financial issues head on.

Vivian shares her thoughts on Bitcoin as a newer, potentially more secure way to invest, though she also notes it requires learning, understanding and a willingness to try something new. She suggests that people invest a bit of time and money just to see what it feels like to own Bitcoin. She does note however, that it's not always easy to get others to see the potential benefits of Bitcoin.

Towards the end, she calls on women on the fence about Bitcoin to continue learning about it and make a gradual move into investing to experience what it feels like owning Bitcoin while observing its acceptance growing worldwide. Vivian expresses her excitement about the potential Bitcoin has in offering a new, innovative solution to current financial issues.

Bitcoin Adoption in Africa: Empowering Women with Noelyn

In this episode, I'm thrilled to bring you Noelyn’s inspiring story and her journey into the world of Bitcoin. Born and raised in Kenya, Noelyn experienced the harsh realities of the 2008 financial crisis, a pivotal moment that steered her towards studying financial engineering in college. Her quest for financial security led her to explore various investment strategies. Noelyn shares her insights from working in the banking and tax industries, revealing how these experiences highlighted the constraints of centralized finance and ultimately drew her towards Bitcoin.

"With self teaching," she said, "once you get the Bitcoin bug, it itches you, you want to start telling the whole world about it."

Currently, she's making a significant impact at Exonumia by translating Bitcoin content into Swahili, thereby increasing accessibility and understanding of Bitcoin in Africa.

This episode also touches on a critical issue: the societal expectations for African women to secure financial independence before marriage as a safeguard against economic vulnerability and marital abuse. Noelyn passionately advocates for greater female participation in the Bitcoin community, emphasizing the role of decentralized finance in empowering women. Tune in for an enlightening discussion about financial independence, empowerment, and the transformative power of Bitcoin.

Liv's Perspective: Connection between Bitcoin, Human Behavior, and Well-Being"

In this episode of 'The Orange Hatter', the guest, Liv, a psychologist from Germany who lives in America, discusses her understanding of Bitcoin in relation to cognitive psychology and systemic behavior. She delves into the topic of why individuals are often resistant to Bitcoin, attributing this to the subconscious safety cues from our environment that correlate with our current financial system. These safety cues induce a feeling of security and disrupt the notion of adopting an entirely new system like Bitcoin. Liv goes on to articulate how Bitcoin offers stability, predictability, and inspires individuals to plan for the future - key elements that she argues are vital for our wellbeing. The conversation also highlights the importance of questioning existing systems and making long-term decisions. Liv encourages listeners to examine the current financial system critically, evaluate its advantages and disadvantages, principally the concept of inflation, in order to understand the potential benefits of Bitcoin better.

A Chat with Krista, the Founder of Access Tribe

This podcast episode features Krista, who discusses her background in the financial markets of the UK and the United States, and her transition into the world of Bitcoin. Krista details the catalyst for her Bitcoin awakening and shares the disillusionment she experienced while working in financial markets that she views as inefficient and unproductive.

Krista moved from London to New York and then to Canada, experiencing different economic and social environments in the process. She witnesses and discusses the Canadian government's overreach during the Truckers Protest, and how this solidified her belief in Bitcoin not just as a technology to counter the inflation but as a necessity to protect human rights and financial freedom.

She gives an overview of her entrepreneurial journey, founding a company called Access Tribe. Her enterprise's aim is to establish a platform for women in the Bitcoin space, focusing on networking opportunities, providing valuable resources, and creating connections within the industry.

Krista advocates for women's active participation in the Bitcoin space, underlining how Bitcoin understanding is crucial for their financial future and their children's wealth.

Journey from Financial Independence, Retire Early (FIRE), to Bitcoin Evangelist

Pravin, a determined and passionate Bitcoin evangelist, shares her journey into the world of Bitcoin as a part of the FIRE movement, financial independence and reitre early. She explains how she first became aware of Bitcoin in 2011, disregarding it initially, but later embracing it as her understanding deepened over years, leading to her and her husband's full commitment in 2020. With an emphasis on self-education, Praven shares insights from her route to understanding Bitcoin; from observing the fluctuations in the Bitcoin market to her realization of Bitcoin's potential for preserving purchasing power and freedom.

She actively shares Bitcoin with her church and local community, advocating for financial preparedness ahead of potential inflation difficulties.

Yoga Teacher to Death Doula and Bitcoin Enthusiast

Erin, a certified Death Doula and a Bitcoin enthusiast, shares her journey of personal transformation and pursuit of purpose. Starting her journey as a horse manager and restaurant worker, she underwent a significant mindset shift after her Yoga teacher training and the passing of her beloved pet, which spurred her interest in death and questioning the purpose of her life. This led her on a path to become a Death Doula, advocating for and supporting people through the process of dying. Erin's transition into the Bitcoin space happened amidst the pandemic when she decided to quit her job due to mandated vaccine passports. She was introduced to Bitcoin as a tool to peacefully move away from the system imposed by the government. Erin shared her experiences living in Bitcoin circular economies in places like El Salvador and Guatemala. She emphasizes the importance of a new monetary system in making the world a better place and believes Bitcoin can serve as a tool towards that end.
