I'm Dr. Erika Rasure, and I'm so glad you're here. Before you start this curriculum, I want to say something directly to you. You're here because something about your financial life isn't working the way you want it to. Maybe you want to save more. Pay down debt. Stop overspending. Stop fighting about money with your partner. Feel less anxious and more confident about money. Build something for yourself that actually lasts. Whatever brought you here \u2014 those outcomes are what we're here for. The feelings, the patterns, your inherited understanding of money \u2014 we're not exploring these for their own sake, though they may unlock something far more profound than you expect. But these things are the foundation. The reason we start there is because that's what finally makes all the practical work stick \u2014 the saving, the debt payoff, the building of the financial life you actually want. Now \u2014 showing up here is no small thing. The fact that you're sitting here watching this means you've decided to do something most people spend their whole lives avoiding. And that takes courage. I want you to give yourself credit for that, right now, before you do anything else. I also want you to hear me say this, because I know how heavy it can feel: You are not bad with money. Whatever you've been carrying about your finances \u2014 shame, avoidance, a sense that you should have figured this out by now \u2014 it's not the truth about you. It's the residue of patterns and beliefs from before you had any say in the matter. You inherited them. You absorbed them. And now you're here to do something about them. That's not failure. That's the beginning of something genuinely different. I've watched people do this work, and I've watched it change them. Not in a slick, instagram-worthy way. In a real way. A quieter way. The kind where one day you notice the financial decision you'd been avoiding for months just gets made. The numbers start moving in the direction you want them to, because the person making the decisions is finally centered enough to make them well. That's available to you here. Not because of the curriculum on its own. But because the work and what you bring to it can create a pretty remarkable transformation. And I'm excited for you to see it for yourself. I'm so glad you're here. Let's begin.\"\n}\n<\/script>\n\n<div class=\"rc-page\" data-rc-key=\"pre.part0_1\">\n\n  <div class=\"rc-module-nav\">\n    <div class=\"rc-module-nav-inner\">\n      <div class=\"rc-module-nav-left\">\n        <span class=\"rc-badge\">Start<\/span>\n        <span>Orientation \u00b7 Before you begin<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"rc-module-nav-right\">\n        <span class=\"rc-meta-text\">Part 1 of 5<\/span>\n        <span class=\"rc-dot\"><\/span>\n        <a href=\"\/blog\/reset\/start\/how-to-use-this-curriculum\/\">Part 0.2 \u2192<\/a>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <section class=\"rc-part-header\">\n    <nav class=\"rc-breadcrumb\">\n      <a href=\"\/blog\/reset-curriculum\/\">Financial Wellness RESET\u2122 Curriculum<\/a>\n      <span class=\"rc-sep\">\/<\/span>\n      <span class=\"rc-current\">Part 0.1<\/span>\n    <\/nav>\n    <div class=\"rc-part-eyebrow\">Start \u00b7 Orientation<\/div>\n    <h1 class=\"rc-part-title\">Welcome to the<br><em>RESET\u2122 Curriculum<\/em><\/h1>\n    <p class=\"rc-part-subtitle\">Welcome \u2014 from Dr. Erika Rasure<\/p>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <div class=\"rc-progress rc-progress--read\" data-rc-read-min=\"5\">\n    <div class=\"rc-progress-inner\">\n      <span class=\"rc-progress-label\">Reading progress<\/span>\n      <div class=\"rc-progress-track\"><div class=\"rc-progress-fill\"><\/div><\/div>\n      <span class=\"rc-progress-count\">5 min read<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"rc-video\">\n  <div class=\"rc-video-frame\">\n    <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BpkKeugqS74?rel=0&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;playsinline=1&amp;color=white\" title=\"A welcome from Dr. Erika Rasure\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/iframe>\n  <\/div>\n  <figcaption class=\"rc-video-caption\">\n    <span class=\"rc-video-caption-eyebrow\">From Dr. Erika Rasure<\/span>\n    <span class=\"rc-video-caption-title\">A welcome to the Financial Wellness RESET\u2122 Curriculum<\/span>\n  <\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n  <section class=\"rc-prose\">\n    <p>And because there&#8217;s only so much I can fit into a 2-minute video, I wrote you a letter&#8230;<\/p>\n\n    <h2>A note from Dr. Erika Rasure before you begin<\/h2>\n\n    <p class=\"rc-lead\">To you, before you begin \u2014<\/p>\n\n    <p>I&#8217;ve spent more than two decades working at the intersection of financial planning and mental health \u2014 first as a financial advisor, then as a researcher, and now as a Certified Financial Therapist\u2122 with a doctorate in Personal Financial Planning. I lead financial wellness programming at Beyond Finance, where I work directly with clients navigating debt, financial stress, and the behavioral patterns that keep both in place.<\/p>\n\n    <p>You&#8217;re here because something about your financial life isn&#8217;t working the way you want it to. Maybe you&#8217;ve tried the budgets, the apps, the plans \u2014 and something keeps getting in the way. I know that feeling well. Not just professionally. Personally.<\/p>\n\n    <p>I lost my dad when I was 13. He&#8217;d been living with Multiple Sclerosis for most of my childhood, and both of my parents were insurance agents \u2014 so I grew up with an unusually clear view of what happens when life doesn&#8217;t go according to plan. Financially, emotionally, all of it. I watched my family navigate the collision of illness, loss, and money without a real roadmap, and something in me decided early on that I wanted to help people have a better experience of that moment than we did.<\/p>\n\n    <p>That&#8217;s what started me on this path. Not a love of spreadsheets. Not a fascination with markets. A deep, personal understanding that money is never really just about money.<\/p>\n\n    <p>I spent years in financial planning and coaching before I found the field of financial therapy \u2014 and when I did, it felt like finally having language for something I&#8217;d been seeing my whole career. The people I worked with weren&#8217;t struggling because they lacked information. They were struggling because of grief, fear, shame, identity, and stories they&#8217;d been carrying since childhood. The numbers were almost always secondary.<\/p>\n\n    <p>I&#8217;ll be honest with you: I&#8217;ve had my own complicated relationship with money. I&#8217;ve navigated debt. I&#8217;ve had to confront my own patterns around spending, around emotional recentering, around the way charged seasons of life can quietly undo even the best intentions. On paper, everything looked right \u2014 I was educated, I worked in finance, I knew the rules. But knowledge alone doesn&#8217;t make you immune to money struggles. I had to learn that the hard way.<\/p>\n\n    <figure class=\"rc-figure rc-figure--wide\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beyondfinance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/reset-pillars-overview.png\" alt=\"The five pillars of the Financial Wellness RESET\u2122 Framework: Recenter, Examine, Simplify, Empower, Transform.\" loading=\"lazy\">\n    <\/figure>\n\n    <p>That&#8217;s why I built the Financial Wellness RESET\u2122 Framework. Five stages that move you from financial overwhelm to financial embodiment, starting not with your budget but with your nervous system and your story. Recenter. Examine. Simplify. Empower. Transform. Each one builds on the last, and together they do something no spreadsheet ever could: they change <em>who you are<\/em> with money, not just <em>what you do<\/em> with it. And that transformation can help you transform your financial picture completely.<\/p>\n\n    <p>This framework is the work of my career \u2014 built from what I&#8217;ve seen actually work for the people I&#8217;ve sat with, over and over and over again.<\/p>\n\n    <p>What I want you to know is that I haven&#8217;t just developed this work \u2014 I&#8217;ve watched it change lives. In my clinical work and in my role at Beyond Finance, I&#8217;ve sat alongside thousands of clients moving through this exact process. I&#8217;ve seen people who came in believing they were &#8220;bad with money&#8221; leave with documented evidence to the contrary. I&#8217;ve watched survival mode loosen its grip on people who had been living inside it for years. I&#8217;ve seen graduates of Beyond Finance&#8217;s program improve their self-reported financial habit scores by 42% on average. But what stays with me even more than the numbers are the moments \u2014 the relief in someone&#8217;s face when they finally understand why they&#8217;ve been stuck, the steadiness they begin to carry into financial conversations that used to overwhelm them, the quiet pride in someone realizing they can trust themselves with money again. Every one of those moments deepens my conviction that this work shouldn&#8217;t stay inside a clinical practice or a single program. It should be available to anyone willing to do it.<\/p>\n\n    <p>One more thing to know before you begin: I&#8217;m not just the person who designed this curriculum. I&#8217;m a person who has lived what it addresses. And I&#8217;m going to be with you through it \u2014 in the frameworks, the exercises, the questions I ask you to sit with. Every part of this curriculum was written with the belief that you shouldn&#8217;t have to do hard things alone.<\/p>\n\n    <p class=\"rc-anchor\">There&#8217;s no failing this curriculum. There&#8217;s only becoming.<\/p>\n\n    <p>Let&#8217;s begin.<\/p>\n\n    <div class=\"rc-signature\">\n      <div class=\"rc-signature-name\">\u2014 Dr. Erika Rasure, PhD, CFT\u2122<\/div>\n      <div class=\"rc-signature-title\">Chief Financial Wellness Advisor, Beyond Finance<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <nav class=\"rc-foot\">\n    <a href=\"\/blog\/reset\/start\/how-to-use-this-curriculum\/\" class=\"rc-foot-card rc-next\">\n      <div class=\"rc-foot-card-label\">Up next \u00b7 Part 0.2 \u2192<\/div>\n      <div class=\"rc-foot-card-title\">How to Use This Curriculum<\/div>\n    <\/a>\n  <\/nav>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Start Orientation \u00b7 Before you begin Part 1 of 5 Part 0.2 \u2192 Financial Wellness RESET\u2122 Curriculum \/ Part 0.1 Start \u00b7 Orientation Welcome to theRESET\u2122 Curriculum Welcome \u2014 from Dr. Erika Rasure Reading progress 5 min read From Dr. Erika Rasure A welcome to the Financial Wellness RESET\u2122 Curriculum&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"normal","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[176,178],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5742","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-reset","category-start"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
