This week on the Standard Deviations Podcast, Dr. Daniel Crosby is joined by Dr. Michael Thomas Jr.
Utilizing financial empathy as a process for active listening and the creation of client-focused financial recommendations are reflected in two financial literacy and capability programs he helped co-create: Money Dawgs and Discovering Money Solutions. Dr. Thomas’ life-long goal is to help underserved communities establish, grow, and sustain their wealth utilizing an intra and inter-family wealth creation process.
Tune in to hear:
- Why does discussing money remain such a persistent taboo in our culture?
- Why is financial intimacy so critical and how can we work towards achieving it in our lives?
- How does financial intimacy, or intimacy more generally, relate to “feeling seen?”
- How can financial intimacy allow us to better see ourselves and unearth our personal money stories that have gone under our radar?
- We have a cognitive understanding that we can’t take our wealth with us when we die, but why is this so hard to understand in practice?
