Financial wellness–or the lack of it–shows up at work. When we have workplace financial wellness, we can improve morale, reduce burnout, and increase productivity and longevity. In this video, financial therapist Lindsay Bryan-Podvin breaks down ways to improve your financial wellness at work at the individual level, as a team member, and for people in leadership/HR roles.

Financial anxiety doesn’t clock out when you do. I’m talking about how financial anxiety at work shapes behavior, from overworking and constantly seeking reassurance, to team tension, to rigid leadership decisions that feel “strategic” but are stress-driven. I’ll share how financial stress and work productivity are connected, what financial anxiety symptoms can look like in individuals, colleagues, and leaders, and how financial wellness at work is already influencing your workplace culture. I’ll also share actionable questions you can use right away to shift from anxiety-based decisions to more intentional, strategic ones.
