What happens when a Benedictine monk becomes a money manager? In this rich and engaging conversation, Harmony talks with Doug Lynam about his extraordinary journey from the Marine Corps to monastic life, and ultimately into the world of finance. Drawing on his unique spiritual and intellectual background, Doug shares how childhood trauma, Enneagram types, and attachment styles shape our financial lives—and how we can transform our relationship to money with awareness and integrity.
Doug’s groundbreaking new book, Taming the Money Monster, introduces an innovative blend of psychology, neurobiology, and spiritual insight, using the Enneagram as a roadmap to financial healing. Whether you’re a yoga teacher struggling with shame around wealth, or someone seeking a more spiritually aligned path to abundance, this episode offers tools and perspectives that can change the way you think about money forever.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How early emotional wounds impact your financial patterns
- The connection between your Enneagram type and money behaviors
- Why wealth and spirituality aren’t mutually exclusive
- What it means to have a conscious relationship with money
- Practical steps for addressing financial anxiety or avoidance
- How to integrate giving, saving, earning, and investing in a values-based way
