UnF*ck Your Money

Money & The Female Nervous System with with Veronica Rottman

Nadine Zumot Season 1 Episode 17

Welcome back to the show!

In this episode, I sit down with a Somatic Trauma Resolution Practitioner and Educator, Veronica Rottman, @wakingwomb, whose approach to nervous system healing challenges traditional teachings and brings a fresh, nuanced perspective. 

We dive into the unique ways the female nervous system experiences trauma, the connection between the menstrual cycle and financial habits, and why mainstream somatic healing myths might be keeping people stuck. 

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by nervous system dysregulation—whether around money, emotions, or physical symptoms—this conversation will offer deep insights and actionable tools to support your healing journey.  

 Key Takeaways:

1. CPTS vs. CPTSD– Dropping the ‘D’ acknowledges that trauma responses are not disorders, but adaptive nervous system reactions to stress.  

2. Somatic Healing Myths – Simply acting out emotions (rage, crying, etc.) isn’t true somatic work and may actually reinforce dysregulation rather than resolve it.  

3. Trauma & The Female Nervous System – How the Female Nervous System moves through nervous system dysregulation differently, and how hormonal shifts play a key role in how women experience trauma and emotions.  

4. Money & The Nervous System – Financial habits like overspending, hyper-frugality, or debt cycles are often rooted in nervous system dysregulation, not just mindset issues.  

5. Menstrual Cycle & Money– Different phases of the menstrual cycle influence nervous system regulation, impulse control, and even financial decision-making.
