Friday Fix: Episode 98

You’ve likely heard people say things like, “Money can’t buy happiness.” But, it’s no secret that money does affect your happiness to an extent. When you’re struggling to pay the bills, you’re likely to experience a high level of distress. As a result, it might be hard to focus on almost anything other than your mounting bills. A higher income doesn’t necessarily mean you won’t struggle with debt, however. Many people live paycheck to paycheck regardless of how much they earn. It’s tough to know how to even get started addressing either issue when you’re experiencing both a mental health issue and some serious financial strain. On today’s Friday Fix, I discuss the link between your money and your mental health and share five strategies for addressing your financial and mental health.  When you start feeling better and getting yourself out of debt, you’ll gain some serious relief.
