In this powerful final episode of the Unraveling Your Relationship with Money series, forensic accountant Tracy Coenen joins me for a deep dive into the emotional and psychological ties we have with money. We explore how childhood experiences shape financial mindsets, why so many women struggle with financial control in relationships, and the hidden reality of financial abuse—a silent but devastating form of control many don’t even recognize.
