The Trauma of Money — Uncovering Your Ancestral Money Story
About This Session
Your relationship with money started long before you earned your first dollar.
It started in the way your family talked — or did not talk — about finances. In the survival strategies that were modelled for you. In the shame, the scarcity, the silence, and sometimes the creativity and community that shaped how money moved through the people who raised you.
And it lives in your body right now.
In this session, somatic therapist and Trauma of Money Certified™ practitioner Candice Frederick guides participants through the deeply personal, often unexamined terrain of inherited money stories. Drawing from her own experience watching her family participate in the susu and her clinical work supporting people in building intentional relationships with money, Candice creates a space where the financial and the somatic are finally held in the same conversation.
This is not a budgeting workshop. It is a healing one.
