Money wounds stem from deep emotional and psychological scars related to beliefs and behaviors about money, often intensified during the holidays by societal expectations.

Healing from financial wounds requires self-compassion and reflection, recognizing that feelings of shame and inadequacy are common and can be dismantled by shared experiences.

It's crucial to understand that self-worth must not be tied to financial status; one's value transcends monetary spending during the holiday season.
