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 go-getters 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 self criticism.
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. ♥️

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.
