Money permeates every part of our lives, and yet it’s often the hardest thing to talk about. In this episode of Resiliency Redefined, Dr. Robyne sits down with CPA, bestselling author, entrepreneur, speaker, and podcast host Mel Abraham for a profoundly honest and empowering conversation about building true financial resiliency rooted in meaningful values and intentional choices. Together, Dr. Robyne and Mel unpack why money is often the most avoided topic, how this avoidance can silently undermine our well-being and relationships, and what it really takes to start feeling in control, no matter where we are on our financial journey. Mel shares insights into the essential behaviors, habits, and open conversations that can help individuals, couples, and families transform money from a source of stress into a tool for creating the life they envision. Packed with practical tools, mindset shifts, and heartfelt encouragement, this episode will leave you with clarity, hope, and a renewed sense of agency around your financial future. In this episode, you’ll learn: How open conversations around money can strengthen relationships and reduce financial anxiety Where most couples get stuck with money conversations and how starting with life vision and shared values can transform the way we approach them Why waiting for the “right time” or “enough money” to get strategic is a trap The compounding power of small financial choices made consistently over time Simple, actionable tools (like the four buckets system) to help anyone of any age start building financial resilience Ways to help young people with financial literacy, see past social media “get rich quick” myths, and stay focused on sustainable wealth The importance of aligning financial decisions with what matters most so your money becomes a tool for freedom, not a source of fear *** Next Stress Wisely Lab: October 27th, 2025 Join Dr. Robyne for a 90-minute, research-backed experience designed to help you simplify your days, strengthen your boundaries, and start showing up for your life in a healthier, more sustainable way.
