How do you bridge the gap between the anxiety you may be feeling and the realities of your current situation?

Our resident therapist, Dr. Jennifer Dragonette, explains the core principles of ACT, a behavioral therapy developed by Dr. Steven Hayes, designed to foster present-moment awareness, acceptance of reality, and cognitive diffusion.

Dr. Jen makes these concepts accessible, helping listeners visualize their thoughts as separate entities that can be managed rather than overtaken by them. Our conversation focuses on a listener question regarding a significant life transition—retirement—and how deeply ingrained financial anxieties clash with aspirations like generosity.

We tie the realms of financial planning with understanding the psychological complexities that impact our financial decisions. Whether you're on the cusp of retirement or navigating any transitional phase, this insightful dialogue will equip you with the tools to align reality with your aspirations.

Please enjoy my conversation with Dr. Jennifer Dragonette.
