Emotions on one side. Logic on the other. Use balance to bridge the gap.

At a Glance: ✨If you tend to overthink or get swept up in emotions (or both!), this resource helps you spot where you are—head, heart, or harmony between—so you can take your next step with clarity and care.

Are You Trapped in Logic, Overwhelmed by Emotion—or Building a Bridge Between Them?

When it comes to money, I’ve spent time on both sides of the bridge.

I’ve clung to logic, spreadsheets, and hard numbers as if they were anchors—only to find myself adrift when emotions came crashing in anyway.

Other times, I’ve let fear or hope take the helm, avoiding the numbers because they felt too heavy. That didn’t go well either.

This week in the Happy Money Club, I’m sharing a simple resource to help you see where you are on the spectrum between logic and emotion when it comes to your finances. It’s not about fixing anything—it’s about recognizing the patterns, so you can find steadier ground.

Sometimes, we need a little logic to anchor us. Other times, a little feeling to soften us.

But what if the goal isn’t to choose between them?
What if it’s to build a bridge?


🧠💖 Curious what else helps you bridge logic and emotion?
