Podcast: The hidden beliefs about money that sabotage us

The pandemic, the housing affordability crisis, rising inequality — there’s many reasons why young people today may feel anxious about the economy and their financial future.

This week on Down to Business features ​​Aseel El-Baba, in-house financial therapist at Conscious Economics, an organization dedicated to fostering dialogue on the economy.

The first thing El-Baba explains is what a financial therapist even is.

Her organization also recently partnered with Interac, the company that helps facilitate electronic money transfers including debit, to release a survey about the financial issues that challenge gen Z and Millennials.

As always the interview is edited for clarity and brevity.
