Playback session - audio sample Never in our lifetimes have so many of us had to confront our dysfunctional attitudes about money or needed to make such fundamental changes in our financial habits. As a result, many of us find ourselves dealing with money issues more than ever before. This workshop is designed to offer a road map for exploring this emotion-laden territory. You'll have an opportunity to see where you fit along the full spectrum of "money personalities"--overspender or a hoarder, money worrier or a worry avoider, risk taker or risk avoider. We'll also look at the polarizing patterns about money that often characterize couples, discuss gender differences (both hard-wired and sociocultural) that affect many of our relationships, and explore the connection between current money attitudes and family-of-origin models. After participating in the Money Dialogue and other experiential exercises, you'll leave with not only a fuller vision of your own financial habits and psychological relationship with money, but also a toolkit for helping your clients deepen their awareness of their own money issues.
