Ready to unpack the enormity of your childhood, parents and their life-altering impact on you?

Join us for a profound conversation with Ayla Inja, a researcher from Douglas Mental Health Institute, as we traverse the shadowy pathways of psychological trauma, narcissistic parenting, and emotional abuse.

Ayla leads us on this journey to shed light on the intricate mechanics of our ego, defence mechanisms, and the reactions embedded in our nervous systems.

We discuss the dynamics of a narcissistic family and the implications of emotional abuse on children. We explore the fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses that act as our nervous system's bodyguards, and how they display themselves in our adulthood.

Moreover, we dive into the awakening process, Golden Child Syndrome, and the shadow self - complex concepts that are part of the trauma narrative.

In our final segments, we explore some of the causes of suicide, its correlations with trauma, and the science behind childhood maltreatment leading to suicidal thoughts in adulthood.

We explore the cycle of depression and anxiety, with Ayla providing key strategies to prevent spiralling into these debilitating states.

Most importantly, we talk about the importance of self-awareness, self-reflection, and recognition of our dysfunctional behaviours and thought patterns that chain us to our past.

Tune in for an enlightening conversation that promises transformation and growth.

Did your parents ever argue about money while growing up?

Think back on the money lessons you gleaned from your upbringing (good or bad).

How did they shape your financial behaviour and your relationship with money now?

If you're grappling with these questions, this episode is a must-listen.

We are joined by Anna Walker, a certified money coach, holistic wealth alchemist, and founder of Bilancia Wealth, whose own journey through the world of finance has led her to explore the psychology of money.

We get to the heart of money archetypes and behaviours, and how these can either be barriers or gateways to financial success.

Anna guides us through the key roles of the Warrior, Creator, and Money Magician archetypes and their potential impact on our wealth. We also unpack common money blocks, and how negative beliefs, fears, and inaction can hinder our financial growth.

But it's not all about problems - we also explore solutions and how to reframe these blocks to unleash our wealth potential.

We also navigate the choppy waters of money and power dynamics in relationships. Traditional gender roles, societal norms, and the intertwining of our self-worth and net worth can lead to financial imbalances in interpersonal relationships.

Anna shares practical wisdom on how to lay the groundwork for healthy and balanced money dynamics. Lastly, we shed light on the importance of financial education for young individuals and the role of safety and self-worth in our financial situations.
