Your Money Story Is Running Your Life | How to Rewrite It - Ep. 149 Part 2

Your Money Story Is Running Your Life | How to Rewrite It - Ep. 149 Part 2 What happens when a simple conversation about remortgaging triggers a full emotional breakdown? In Part 2 of this conversation with life and leadership coach Rose Latham, Rebecca Robertson digs into the moment Rose realised her entire financial identity was built on fear, inherited money stories and a self-worth wound she didn't know was there. They explore how to uncover your own money story and start rewriting it. Picking up where Part 1 left off, Rose shares the kitchen conversation with her husband that cracked everything open. A routine chat about remortgaging triggered a flood of emotion that revealed just how tightly her financial worth was tangled with her identity as a mother, a partner and a professional. Rose walks through how she started unpicking that story, from reading Barbara Stanny's "Overcoming Underearning" to having honest conversations with her mum about generational money patterns. Rebecca shares her own parallel: a father who grew up in genuine poverty after a coal mine accident left his family with nothing, and how that shaped her own relationship with money without her ever realising it. The episode closes with two practical exercises anyone can do today to start understanding their own money story and what's really driving their financial decisions.
