Through exploring how our relationship with money develops, financial anxiety, and our money mindsets, we will discuss how this impacts our financial behaviors. Personal finance has often left the nuances of emotion and culture out of the conversation when highlighting the necessary money moves to build wealth. This conversation seeks to highlight where our beliefs about money originate, how building and creating wealth impact emotional well-being, and strategies to cope with the shift while remaining true to one's values.\n\nObjectives:\u00a0Define and identify money narratives and foundational beliefs about money; label feelings around money and the potential change of socioeconomic status or class; learn how to navigate the emotions brought up due to being a first-generation wealth builder.\n\nSpeaker Bio: Aja Evans is a licensed mental health counselor, speaker, and author specializing in financial therapy. With over a decade of experience, Aja is determined to help more people break the taboo of keeping money and emotions secret. In addition to her practice, Aja serves on the board of the Financial Therapy Association, consults to fintech companies, and released her book\u00a0Feel Good Finance.\n\nAja has been featured in a variety of major news outlets including the\u00a0New York Times,\u00a0Business Insider, NerdWallet, and CNBC. Aja is on a mission to get more people engaged in living their best lives while attuning to their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors around money. Outside of work, you can find Aja chasing after her two young children as they hunt down the next delicious place to eat.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"142219-21890230@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142219", "building_id":"null", "building_name":"Off Campus Location", "campus_maps_id":"1", "room":"", "location_name":"Off Campus Location", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Rgs Events","Rgs-events","Sessions"], "website":"https:\/\/sessions.studentlife.umich.edu\/p\/track\/15871", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Sessions @ Michigan", "group_id":"4791", "website":"https:\/\/sessions.studentlife.umich.edu\/" }, { "group_name":"Rackham Graduate School", "group_id":"1187", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/umichgradschool" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21890230 } , "144213-21894848": { "datetime_modified":"20260305T123140", "datetime_start":"20260218T140000", "datetime_end":"20260218T150000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-02-18", "date_end":"2026-02-18", "time_start":"14:00:00", "time_end":"15:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Internship Lab", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Internship Lab", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Careers \/ Jobs", "event_type_id":"2", "description":"*RSVP required to attend.
