Summary

What does it take to turn long-standing financial trauma into a sustainable path toward stability and control over your money? In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Dr. Darla Bishop, aka “The FinanSis,” about just that as she takes us through her story of navigating financial and personal trauma. Dr. Darla Bishop shows us that changing your financial story isn’t about quick fixes or hollow advice, but about recognizing deep-rooted fears, making intentional choices, and building a foundation strong enough to support both your dreams and your well-being. Tune in to learn tangible steps to confidently handle debt, access higher education affordably, and build wealth from the ground up. Whether you’re chipping away at student loans, juggling work and school, or simply seeking more confidence in your financial decisions, this is the episode you’ll replay again and again.
