Personal Finance Expert Explains How to Navigate Financial Stress in Parenting

There’s more to being rich than the number in your bank account, but finances are still important. Stress around money can impact our parenting, and kids are quick to notice. How can we talk to them about budgets and responsible spending without passing down our anxiety?

This week, I welcome Farnoosh Torabi, a personal finance expert, to discuss how to foster open and honest conversations about money with children and help them develop a healthy relationship with finances.

She joins me to discuss:

• What inspired her ambition and shaped her understanding of hard work
• The importance of fostering curiosity about finances in children
• How being “rich” encompasses more than just financial status
