Most of us were taught that talking about money is rude, dangerous or selfish.
So we keep quiet, guess in the dark and then blame ourselves when things feel hard.

In this episode of Disrupt Your Money, Meg digs into how that silence around money actually serves the systems that benefit from our confusion, not us or our communities. She looks at the family stories, cultural expectations and shame scripts that keep us from asking questions, sharing real numbers or telling the truth about what things actually cost.

From money talks with partners and kids to community money circles, this episode is all about using your voice to build generational wealth on purpose.
