Money and Mindset We Learn as Kids with Money Coach Kris (291)

In this episode, I sat down with Money Coach Kris to explore a side of financial literacy that doesn’t get talked about nearly enough: our emotional relationship with money. Kris shared how her 25 years in the financial industry led her to develop the idea of financial attachment styles, showing how patterns like saving, overspending, stress, and risk aversion can often be traced back to what we learned about money in childhood. We talked about how early those beliefs begin, why wealth is so often misunderstood, and how entrepreneurs and employees can experience money very differently depending on their sense of control, responsibility, and security.We also dug into what parents can do to help kids build healthier money habits from the start. Kris explained why simple conversations at home, involving children in family financial decisions, and using allowance as a learning tool can make a lasting impact. We wrapped by looking at where AI fits into all of this, especially in financial decision-making, and why access to information still doesn’t replace human judgment, emotional awareness, or understanding your own tolerance for risk.
