You might pause the podcast and answer them right then and there, but if you keep a journal (Steph and Beth both do), you might find one of these PDFs useful. Choose the orientation that fits best in your journal.
  1. What are your money scars?
  2. How is your relationship with money today influenced by your upbringing?
  3. Do you have a healthy relationship with money? Are you willing to take steps to get (or maintain) a healthy relationship with money?
  4. When is the last time you splurged on a treat for yourself? What was it and why did you buy it? If you never have, why not?
