Named 2023 Best Personal Finance podcast by Bankrate.com, Stacking Benjamins host Joe Saul-Sehy talks with experts about personal finance, saving, investing, and important money trends.
Dr. Erika Rasure, Chief Financial Wellness Advisor at Beyond Finance, recently appeared on the Stacking Benjamins podcast to discuss the deep connection between financial confidence and emotional well-being. Discussing recent research from a Beyond Finance survey, Dr. Rasure revealed that half of Americans don’t trust themselves to manage their finances—an issue rooted not just in knowledge gaps, but in emotional hurdles like shame, fear, and guilt.
Throughout the conversation, Dr. Erika and Joe focus on:
- Why 50% of Americans don’t trust themselves with money — and how to start
- The real emotional blockers behind budgeting, saving, and staying out of the online cart trap
- Gender and generational gaps: why confidence with money isn’t equally distributed (but should be)
- Mindset shifts to get unstuck from shame and paralysis
- A simple path to get control over your debt without feeling like you’ve failed
Listen to the full episode to hear how emotional clarity and the right support system can be the key to lasting transformation for financial wellness.
