Why is talking about money so difficult? For many people, it isn't about math—it’s about fear, shame, childhood beliefs, trauma, trust, and communication. In this powerful episode of Money and You, Michelle Perkins sits down with licensed clinical social worker, psychotherapist, and mental health advocate Bonnie Russo to explore the emotional side of money and why so many intelligent, capable people avoid financial conversations. Together they discuss how our earliest experiences shape our relationship with money, why couples often struggle to communicate about finances, how financial abuse can quietly develop inside relationships, and why avoiding money conversations only creates more stress over time. Whether you're married, single, divorced, or simply trying to feel more confident with money, this conversation offers practical insights and compassionate encouragement to help you move forward. In This Episode You'll Learn Why money conversations feel so emotionally charged How childhood experiences shape your financial beliefs How financial avoidance quietly grows into resentment The warning signs of financial control and financial abuse Why women often underestimate their financial value How communication—not income—is often the biggest financial challenge How therapy and financial education can work together Why your self-talk may be holding you back financially Key Takeaways Money conversations are relationship conversations. Financial disagreements are often rooted in communication, expectations, trust, and unspoken assumptions—not dollars. Avoidance creates more anxiety. The less we look at our finances or talk about them, the more overwhelming they become. Financial confidence is learned. No one is born knowing how to manage money. Financial literacy is a skill anyone can develop. Ask questions—even if they feel uncomfortable. Understanding your finances isn't a sign of distrust. It's an important part of protecting yourself and participating fully in your own life. Self-talk matters. The stories we tell ourselves about money often become self-fulfilling. Replacing "I can't" with "I can't...yet" creates possibility.
