UnF*ck Your Money
Most financial advice tells you WHAT to do.
UnF*ck Your Money explores how to do it when life, stress, fear, and overwhelm get in the way.
If information alone changed behavior, we’d all have perfect finances.
But we don’t.
Because we’re human.
We have nervous systems.
We have histories.
We have fears.
We have grief.
We have habits.
We have protective parts.
And those things show up in our bank accounts every day.
This podcast is for humans who know what to do but don’t do it. It’s about understanding what comes in their way.
Welcome to UnF*ck Your Money the podcast where overwhelmed high-achievers, overgivers, and anxious humans learn how to create a calmer, more empowered relationship with money, themselves, and life.
Hosted by Behavioral Finance Coach & Somatic Practitioner Nadine Zumot, this podcast explores the intersection of money, behavior, nervous systems, self-trust, emotional wellbeing, and the very human reasons we struggle to follow through on what we already know would help.
So if you've ever thought:
"I know what I should be doing with money, so why can't I seem to do it?"
you're in the right place.
Through honest conversations, practical tools, nervous-system-informed education, and deeply human storytelling, Nadine helps listeners understand the emotional and behavioral patterns driving financial anxiety, emotional spending, avoidance, burnout, overgiving, and self-sabotage, so they can build financial stability without shame, overwhelm, or hustle.
Because financial wellness isn’t just about numbers.
It’s about safety.
Capacity.
Self-trust.
And creating a life that actually feels spacious enough to enjoy.
Welcome. Enjoy the show. ♥️

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week, I am playing with something new, and pretty exciting!
Introducing “Ask Nadine” episodes where listeners get on the mic and interview me! It’s a podcast party! Yay!
In this episode, Seraphina and I discuss the relationship between building wealth and the possible impacts of shame, guilt, money, debt and the cultural differences in the perception of debt and the importance of emotional intelligence in managing finances.
Takeaways
- Debt is not inherently bad and can be used in a positive way, such as building credit, resilience and self confidence.
- Shame is an internalized belief that one is bad, while guilt is the belief that one has done something bad.
- Understanding the underlying reasons for debt, including unresolved money wounds, is crucial for healing.
- Shame and guilt can negatively impact our financial decisions and prevent us from taking necessary risks or investments.
- Cultural differences play a role in how debt is perceived, with some cultures viewing it as shameful while others see it as a necessary part of life.
- Why emotional literacy is crucial in managing finances, as our emotions can influence our financial decisions and behaviors.
- Developing a healthy relationship with money requires shifting perspectives and embracing authenticity.
- How the power of perspective can turn a crisis into an adventure, allowing us to approach challenges with a positive mindset.
