Frequently Asked Questions

What is a money personality?
A money personality is the pattern of emotional responses and beliefs that shape your financial decisions. Unlike budgeting strategies (which address behaviour), money personalities address the underlying beliefs — often rooted in childhood experiences with scarcity, abundance, or parental messaging about money.
Can CBT help with money anxiety?
Yes. Many financial anxieties are driven by cognitive distortions — catastrophising about the future, all-or-nothing thinking about debt, or shame-based avoidance. CBT interrupts these thought patterns directly.
