This isn’t about what we know. It’s about what’s getting in the way.

In this episode, Dr. Sev sits down with financial wellness consultant Nia Adams to explore why money can still feel hard—even when you know what to do. They unpack how confidence, beliefs, and past experiences shape financial decisions, and what it takes to move past money shame and follow through.

If you’ve ever felt like you should be further along by now, this conversation is for you.
