In this episode of The Creative Flight, Christina Theo, who is a coaching Psychologist and executive burnout specialist. She shares what's really behind our relationship with money.
Spoiler: it has very little to do with money itself.
What you'll learn:
✔ Why your childhood relationship with money is still running your financial decisions today
✔ How spending can become a coping mechanism and what it takes to recognise it
✔ What it actually means to feel neutral about money and why that's more powerful than positive thinking
✔ How trauma, self-worth, and the need to "look the part" can shape how we earn, spend, and hold on
✔ Why detaching from possessions isn't about minimalism. It's about healing
✔ How to move from surviving financially to designing a life you actually want to live
Who this is for:
📌 High achievers who earn well but still feel financially anxious or out of control

📌 Anyone who grew up hearing "money doesn't grow on trees" and is still carrying that story
Your money mindset isn't a budgeting problem. It's a healing one. If you've ever spent to escape, held back to feel safe, or tied your self-worth to what you earn, because this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.
