What are your kids learning about money before you ever sit them down to teach them? In this episode, Laura unpacks how children absorb the emotional climate around money long before they understand budgets, bank accounts, or financial terms.

She also shares practical ways to start talking about money in age-appropriate ways without overwhelming your kids or waiting until you feel like an expert.  In this episode, you’ll learn: *  What kids pick up from your tone around money  *  Why silence can teach shame, fear, and avoidance  *  How to start talking about money without overwhelming your children  *  Why your kids are not too young to begin learning  *  How ordinary conversations shape the habits, mindset, and tools you leave behind  Laura also shares how her Money Mastery coaching can help you get clearer on your own money so you can teach your kids from a healthier, more confident place. When you are ready to break the silence and start building a better money legacy at home, the next step is in the show notes.  Learn more about working with Laura Sexton .        Join the Facebook group Legacy Builders Network [http://www.facebook.com/groups/legacybuildersnet]. ·        Become a master with your money.
