Moneyzen

A veteran of the financial services industry guides you on the path to fiscal enlightenment using ?MoneyZen??her joy-based approach to personal finance that will help you gain peace, confidence, and clarity when it comes to your money.What if everything we've been taught about money and success is wrong?In chasing the American Dream, many of us have lost our way: forgetting to be present with one another, ignoring the richness that can be found in simplicity, spending more time at the office than home, and feeling the compulsion to over-work and out-earn our peers. Veteran financial advisor Manisha Thakor herself fell victim to these habits?at the cost of her mental and physical health.In MoneyZen, Thakor shares stories from her experiences and lessons she's learned, offering a touchstone for what she calls true ?wellth??the convergence of financial and emotional health. No matter your age, occupation, or field, her concept of ?wellth? has the power to help you become zen about money, freeing you from oppressive expectations that promote stress and negativity, including ego, shame, sacrifice, and devotion to the cult of earning.Thakor shows how to spot the signs that you are (unknowingly) in the cult before it's too late; offers a new understanding of ?financial minimalism? that actually gets you more of what you want; introduces ?joy-based spending,? which redefines our concept of budgeting; and so much more.MoneyZen is a soul-baring, life-changing, and refreshing approach to financial wellness. Combining intimate storytelling with practical frameworks for realigning your relationship with money, MoneyZen cuts through the jargon-heavy, logistically oriented language of personal finance and instead provides the information and resources necessary to change your financial life for the better.
