The expectations placed on fathers have changed.

Providing financially is still important, but today that’s only one part of the role. Fathers are also expected to lead, communicate well, be emotionally present, build strong relationships with their kids, and create stability at home.

None of those responsibilities are wrong.

The challenge is that many men feel they’re supposed to excel at all of them simultaneously without ever talking about the pressure that comes with it.

The better we understand that pressure, the better equipped we are to support the people carrying it.

You know what to do with your money. So why do you still feel like garbage about it? Because this was never about the numbers. It’s about shame, and shame is a liar.

In this NoBS Wealth® Roundtable, @stoyhall sits down with Kristina Hall, Ashley Quamme, Rachel Duncan, and Tessa Santarpia to break down the money shame spiral, the real difference between guilt and shame, financial trauma, comparison, and the one small move that gets you through when you can’t even crack the door open. Real talk on money and mental health, money mindset, and financial therapy, with none of the fake it-gets-better nonsense.
