What if the thing that’s been standing in our way financially is actually just a part of us that’s trying to protect us? In this episode, Kathy welcomes former financial adviser, somatic money coach, and author, Catherine Morgan, back to the show to talk about money blocks and fears, and why financial issues aren’t often caused by a lack of discipline or desire, but rather because body patterns cannot be healed through mindset shifts alone.
Catherine is the founder of The Money Panel® and is on a mission to empower one million people towards greater financial equity by addressing the emotional and psychological patterns that keep people stuck financially. She offers nervous-system-focused, somatic approaches that help her clients heal their relationship with money. Catherine believes that financial freedom can only be achieved when the trauma responses that drive financial behavior are addressed.
In our conversation, Catherine reflects on her personal financial journey and discusses how our earliest childhood experiences inform our relationships with money. She explains how language cues give us information about financial trauma, the importance of allowing yourself to feel your emotions, and the power of collective financial freedom. Catherine also introduces the concept of Money Protective, Desiring, and Neutral Parts and shares how meeting these parts with curiosity, not judgment, leads to healing. She encourages listeners to ‘have a discussion’ with the different parts of us relating to money so that these parts can work together, instead of being in conflict.
Catherine breaks down why money blocks are not mindset failures; they are body memories that need to be healed somatically. When these blocks are healed using somatic tools, we can teach our bodies that wealth is safe and finally achieve our financial goals. To end, you’ll hear about Catherine’s upcoming Wealth Resonance® Program and Kathy’s part in it. Tune in to discover how acknowledging our Protective Parts with compassion can transform the way we handle our money!
