Money touches every part of our lives, yet so often it’s the thing we avoid talking about. In this final episode of our money mini-series, Ashton Hayes (Becoming an AMHSW Podcast) and I wrap up our reflections on the money stories and money blocks that shape how we live, work, and relate.
Together we explore:
- How old beliefs about money can quietly influence our choices
- The importance of transparency around money in relationships
- Why financial literacy matters for social workers and clients alike
- Gendered expectations about money and worth
- Small, practical steps that help you feel more confident with money
- Why reflective practice applies just as much to money as it does to social work
This episode is about going gently with yourself, questioning the stories you’ve inherited, and starting the conversations that so many of us have avoided.
