“I find so many people, women specifically, are not confident making decisions around finance or around politics, or being opinionated because they don’t feel comfortable with numbers and that needs to stop.” - Vanessa Vakharia In this episode, Anastasia Barbuzzi chats with @themathguru. Vanessa Vakharia is an author, motivational speaker, part of @goodnightsunrise, founder and owner of a boutique math and science tutoring studio in Toronto (where they serve Pi tea lattes!), and a host of her own podcast, Math Therapy - she does it all.Given $HMONEY’s mission, Anastasia thought it was important to begin discussing why some women feel uncomfortable and have difficulty learning about finance by analyzing the cause: a fear of math, or what she likes to call, #FOM. Have you ever said that you hate math? Do you avoid doing certain things just so that you don’t have to do math? Do the words "I’m not a math person" sound familiar?…If your answer to any of those questions is YES, then you’ll want to listen to this episode. On Math Therapy, Vanessa decodes your math trauma, and today on $HMONEY Radio, we get to #TheRoot of it.Follow @themathguru on Instagram, Twitter, and be sure to listen to Math Therapy.
