64 REWIND: Financial Changes: Minimizing Your Fight Flight Response

When you don’t know how to resolve a financial issue, do you fight, flight or freeze? Whenever we are confronted with making difficult decisions, we are all subject to either fight back when we feel attacked, take flight and run away from our responsibilities, or freeze and allow our emotions to keep us paralyzed or stuck because of fear. These reactions can prevent us from learning how to manage our money confidently and live life purposefully, so in this week’s episode of The Abundant Living Podcast, we’re diving into how to make financial changes by minimizing your fight, flight, freeze response.
