Ever had one of those late-night online shopping sprees that you just knew you’d regret in the morning? Our inner state of mind is so instrumental in shaping what we do and how we do it, that if we don’t manage our own mind and emotions in a healthy way, it’s almost impossible to make healthy choices. Those are powerful words by our guest, Dr. Cortland Dahl. In this episode, you'll learn how to train your mind to step into financial well-being, uncover the power of meditation, and walk away with wisdom to transform your money.

Dr. Cortland Dahl is the Chief Contemplative Officer at Healthy Minds Innovations and a Research Scientist at the Center for Healthy Minds ( at the University of Wisconsin-Madison). His current work focuses on studying the psychological and neural mechanisms of different families of meditation practice. He is also a creator and the voice of the free app, Healthy Minds program; a well-being training program that integrates insights from scientific research with a comprehensive path of contemplative training.
