This guest lecture hits an important topic for all of us: how to stop worrying about money.  Of course, we focus on the particulars of solos, those who are out on their own without a steady paycheck.  But there is a psychology about money which is fascinating, how we live in judgment of others and how it impacts our actions and emotions day-to-day. Objectively, we have to meet our bills.  But why do we worry when we are somewhat comfortable?  Why will we share our most intimate feelings about various topics but feel the most vulnerable talking about money? Feel the most shame if we don’t seem to measure up. It’s all in this great guest lecture with the incomparable Karen Caffrey.  Join us!

Here are links to Karen’s previous guest lectures: Are You ‘Rest’ Impaired?, Are You An Imposter?,  Is Emotional and Physical Isolation As a Solo Killing You? and Embracing with the ‘F’ Word.

The audio is about 42 minutes. Listen directly below.
