Generational Money Stress: A Path To Healing | HDM 428

Have you ever had that weird moment where you realize your money habits aren’t entirely yours? That maybe, just maybe, you’re playing out a script written long before you were born? That’s the exact realization this week’s HDM guest had a few years ago. In this episode, I have a vulnerable and insightful conversation with Antuanett Lopez, where we talk about money stress, her journey from Peru to the US, and the impact this has had on her financial decisions. Let’s jump right in!
More often than not, money stories have nothing to do with factual, very much in-your-face numbers; it’s about the emotions, the unspoken fears, and the silent lessons we carry. Those first impressions, the ones we often don’t even realize are there, can shape our financial lives in ways we never imagined (yes, money stress is a thing). A simple phrase overheard, a look of stress on a parent’s face, these tiny moments become the foundation of our relationship with wealth. They whisper stories of scarcity or security, fear or freedom, long before we ever balance a checkbook. It’s this undercurrent, the emotional weight behind the numbers, that truly drives our decisions.
Understanding how our money stories came to be and how they have shaped our decisions is something that is crucial to reshape our financial futures. This is why, in this week’s HDM episode, we delve into the intricate connections between our upbringing, cultural influences, and the money stress that, more often than not, brings unconscious narratives into our financial lives.
Antuanett Lopez is a bilingual mental health therapist dedicated to providing culturally competent care that supports personal development and healing through connection, education, and self-awareness. Antoinett has a private practice with a mission to create healthier generations and focuses.
