The Hidden Costs of Money Avoidance

Money avoidance is something most of us do at some point — especially when life feels overwhelming. And it doesn’t mean you’re irresponsible or bad with money. It means you’re human. In this episode, I’m talking honestly about what money avoidance actually looks like, why it feels comforting in the moment, and the quiet ways it can end up costing us more over time — emotionally, relationally, and financially. We’ll explore the shame, overwhelm, and fear that often sit underneath avoidance, and I’ll share gentle, realistic ways to start reconnecting with your money without pressure or judgment. If you’ve ever felt stressed just thinking about checking your accounts, avoided money conversations, or told yourself you’d “deal with it later,” this episode is for you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cozy Earth has been part of my routine lately, especially this time of year.
