Stride to Freedom with Russell Benaroya: Unlocking Your Money Story with Emily Scott

Episode 36:
Unlocking Your Money Story with Emily Scott, Financial Guide, Navigator, Thought Partner, Emily Scott AND

In this chat…In this episode of Stride 2 Freedom, I had the pleasure of learning from Emily Scott about the role that our money story has to play in how we make decisions. Emily works with many business owners and executives to shine a light on how our views about money shape how we lead.  Emily brings all heart to this conversation and even turned the tables on me at the end a little bit. You will enjoy this conversation. Tune in!

“For all of us, part of our foundation is our money story which influences our beliefs and the choices we make. Do you know yours and its impact on your life?” –Emily Scott

Emily doesn’t like archetypes.  Trust me, I tried to go there.  But it’s hard to categorize people into buckets when it comes to their money story.  When it comes to our relationship with money, it is a complicated fabric going way way back.  So rather than try and classify people, Emily’s approach is to know them deeply and by knowing them deeply, she can begin a process of awareness. Yes, awareness.  As business owners, how we make decisions and why we make decisions around our resources is very much influenced by our relationship with money.  It’s not good or bad. But it’s awareness that matters.   When we are aware, we can work with that to influence change.  

Emily Scott created Emily Scott AND to help clients open up about their emotional relationship with money and how that manifests in their lives. After a storied career on Wall Street and building an enduring legacy in philanthropy, Emily saw a purpose worth pursuing.  Scott has the ability to bring financial advice to a more personal level of net worth vs self-worth, allowing her clients to uncover their own personal truths.  Often, Emily will be brought in by financial advisors (Emily is upfront about sharing she does not have assets under management)  as a guide or ally for individuals and couples.  

We also dive deeper into Emily’s TED Talk on the Evolution of a Passionholic. Passionholics live at the intersection of their principles, passion, and knowledge.  The relationship to the money story here is clear.  When you can spend more time living your worth vs. proving your worth (a common money story scenario), the possibility opens to live in a state of curiosity.  And therein lies the potential for a Passionholic to emerge.  Emily Scott provides a wonderful understanding of the topic, you definitely won’t want to miss this one.
