Money, Anxiety & Your Relationships (with Dr Esa)

Ep 99 - Money, Anxiety & Your Relationships (with Dr Esa)Australians are more anxious than they were during the pandemic. Money pressure is a big part of why. Half of us say cost of living has hit our relationships. One in five say they've developed anxiety or depression they didn't have before.So what do we actually do about it?This week, Dr Esa Hukkinen joins us to unpack the link between money, anxiety and the people we love. We get into why blame creeps into couples' finances, why a sense of agency changes everything, and the difference between fear and anxiety. Then we land on what actually helps: a plan, a system, and a support team around you.If money has been weighing on you or your relationship lately, this one's for you.Mentioned:ABS National Study on Mental Health and Wellbeing (2020-22)Western Sydney University: Locus of control and wellbeing studyDr Esa: www.coachesa.com.au💬 Give us feedback / submit your questions for our upcoming Q&A episode: waymakerfinance.com.au/podcast/feedbackTalk to a Waymaker Financial Coach or Mortgage Broker (It's free to chat!): waymakerfinance.com.au 👉 Follow us on Instagram: @waymakerfinance IMPORTANT: All of our content including this episode is only for education and entertainment purposes only.
