Dr. Brooke Weinstein on Mental Health, Financial Literacy, and Protecting Yourself
Why does someone else outside of your own brain get to decide what help looks like? In this episode, Ysenia sits down with Dr. Brooke Weinstein—occupational therapist, CEO, and mom—to discuss the critical intersection of mental health, financial literacy, and self-worth for women.
Dr. Brooke shares her journey from building a pediatric occupational therapy practice, preparing for a divorce, suddenly becoming a widow and learning financial independence the hard way.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Why mental health is #1 and financial literacy is #2 for women
- How the people-pleasing trap affects women's relationship with money
- The nervous system's role in financial stress and decision-making
- Why women often feel stuck asking permission to invest in themselves
- How to start when you feel overwhelmed: "What do I not know? What do I want to know?"
- The connection between self-worth and financial agency
- Why financial knowledge helps you sleep better at night
Whether you're navigating financial independence, recovering from loss, or simply want to understand your own finances better, Dr. Brooke's advice is clear: protect yourself and have the knowledge. You never know what can happen.
