Do you find it difficult to stick to a budget? Do you hide purchases from your partner? Do you often argue about money with your family?

One of the most important relationships we have is with money, yet we are often unaware of what drives our habits and feelings related to it. Money can be a cause of anxiety, shame and conflict in our everyday lives. A complex web of emotional factors, past experiences and personality all determine the money choices you make and how you feel about them. But how can you overcome these emotional hurdles to make better financial choices?

Financial Psychotherapist Vicky Reynal dives into different money behaviours such as overspending, underspending, money secrets and self-sabotage to reveal how our past experiences impact our relationship with money. Reynal reveals how an emotionally absent parent can result in comfort shopping, how bullying in school can lead to overspending on nights out to be liked and how absorbing a parent's lack of boundaries can stop you from making rational financial decisions. Through a mix of case studies, client stories and expertise in psychotherapy, Money on Your Mind will help you unpack and understand what is driving your financial behaviours for an improved and healthier relationship with money.

"'As a Financial Times journalist, I have long been a fan of Vicky's work as a therapist, and how she's able to unlock deep-seated emotional problems with money that can hold us back in ways we simply don't realise. In this intriguing book, Vicky leads her readers on an incredible voyage of financial self-discovery with plenty of ""aha"" moments about how we could make more mindful choices with our money. Think of this as financial therapy with feeling.' * Claer Barrett, Financial Times * 'Essential reading for anyone who has ever earned, spent or saved money. Highly recommend.' * Adam Alter, New York Times bestselling author of Irresistible, Anatomy of a Breakthrough and Drunk Tank Pink * 'Vicky offers a clear understanding of common, and some less obvious, financial issues with her insightful exploration of our complex relationship with money.' * Michael Aitken, Founder and Chairman of Magus Wealth and author of The Levelheaded Investor *"
