Welcome to the Financial Therapy podcast, I’m your host and your Financial Therapist Jane Monica-Jones. In this episode we are talking money, shame, deserving and adversity. The latter of course, we will all go through at some stage in our life. Through a loss of a job, maybe a loss of loved one, an illness or even having some mental health issues.

“All walks of life, it didn’t seem to matter what kind of income your husband had or what kind of house you lived in, you could end up of the street.” - Jan Hatch

How do governments, non-for-profits and even us, deal with adversity and what are the impacts that adversity has not only on our financial lives, but on our sense of self- worth. We’ll look at who deserves what when it comes to the public purse and what are the hard decisions care organisations have to make with limited resources for those that face adversity. 

We’ll also be delving into an unconscious bias that we know it exists, but often don’t want to talk about.  It’s called ‘worthy bias’, who do we deem as being worthy of society time, money, resources and like. 

To help us all unpack, uncover, and maybe enlighten us, we speak with Jan Hatch, a Gestalt Therapist who has a Masters in Social and Public Policy. 

So, thank you for joining us as we have a bigger conversation about us and money.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
