Have you ever looked at your bank account and thought… this doesn’t feel real? In this episode of Money Feels, we’re digging into the idea that money might not be as concrete as we think. From the history of how our currency came to be, to why our brains treat money like a survival need, we’re unpacking why money feels fake — and why that feeling actually makes a lot of sense.

We're your hosts, Alyssa and Bridget. Welcome to the podcast, where we talk through our money trauma and create a better understanding of building a healthy relationship with finance.
In today's episode, we discuss the following:

  • Why modern money isn’t backed by anything tangible
  • The role of trust in making money “real”
  • Historical examples of currency collapse and what we can learn from them
  • The emotional impact of money scarcity, even when we’re financially stable
  • How our money beliefs are shaped by our upbringing and economic systems
  • What we might focus on if money didn’t rule our decisions

Thanks for listening to our first episode of a new season! If you want bonus episodes and more, you can join our Patreon! Until then, follow us on Instagram @mixedupmoney, @bridgiecasey and @moneyfeelspodcast, and we’ll see you next time!
