Your relationship with money begins with your relationship with yourself.

Healthy Money is a 30-day guided journey that takes you beyond your budget and bank balance and into the emotional and spiritual roots of your money patterns, revealing your unique money mindset, unleashing deeper healing in your life, and transforming your finances from the inside out.

Have you ever found yourself:

  • Resolving to save money one day and then clicking “add to cart” the next?
  • Paying down a credit card, then “rewarding” yourself by making a big purchase?
  • Wanting to live more fully and give more generously, but unable to release your grip on your finances?

Most of us know the right things to do with finances. We know we need to live within a budget, prioritize giving and saving, and avoid debt…so why is there so often a gap between our knowledge and our actions?

Could it be that it’s not really about money at all?

Healthy Money is a 30-day guided journey that takes you beyond your budget and bank balance and into the emotional and spiritual roots of your finances: your beliefs, your wounds, your fears, and your dreams.

This journey will reveal your primary money mindset, its healthy and unhealthy sides, and how God can transform your financial patterns at the root by healing the deepest parts of your heart and soul.

You will discover:

  • The 5 common money mindsets (and which one you have)
  • The underlying beliefs that drive your financial habits
  • Godly truths to replace unhealthy lies about money
  • How to overcome the weaknesses and play into the strengths of your mindset
  • Reflection questions and guided prayer to help you surrender your finances to God
  • Financial next steps that work for you (no more “shoulds” or formulas)

As you explore and own the truth about your relationship with money, you will find more than just financial freedom; you will also find freedom from the lies you believe about yourself, the guilt and shame you carry, and the fear, scarcity, and comparison mindsets that keep you from reaching your personal and financial potential.

Healthy Money isn’t another piece of advice, another box to check, or someone else pointing out what you’re doing “wrong.”

It’s a tool to unleash deeper healing in your life, change the financial trajectory you’re on, and start heading in the direction you want to go — from a place of surrender, trust, and wholeness.

I pay attention to any good resource about money, knowing money has such a huge hold on our people. I’m excited about this one by Roz and Callie. They’ve put a lot of gold into one book. This will immediately go into my library of recommendations.

The Picardos have written a practical book rooted in scripture and lived experience. The daily readings helped me reflect on my approach to finances and challenged me to grow. I can’t wait to read it again with my wife and see how it can help us in our faith and finances.

An incredibly practical resource for financial health. Jesus came to set the oppressed free! One of the greatest oppressive forces in American culture today for the average family is the burden of debt. Debt fueled by the luring idols of materialism. Roz and Callie’s 30-day devotional journey will keep you on a path of financial wholeness.

Money stuff can be so stressful. It can weigh you down and hold you back. This book offers a better way through a simple, daily journey with God. This is the best resource I have seen for a practical, powerful path to find freedom with your finances!

One of the prayers I regularly pray is “God, show me me.” It’s an acknowledgement of my propensity to self-deceive. Roz and Callie have given the Body of Christ a great gift in Healthy Money to carefully heighten our self-awareness around how we each uniquely manage or mismanage money and the stuff money buys. This tool assists the Holy Spirit in helping us take our next step toward wellness in our finances.

Healthy Money: A 30-Day Journey toward Spiritual, Emotional, and Financial Freedom by Rosario and Callie Picardo is a compelling roadmap that charts a path to financial independence in only a month. The Picardos blend their personal and professional experiences to offer a sequential study that organically cultivates readers’ understanding of healthy financial management alongside spiritual and emotional growth lessons. This book, rich with practical advice and insightful wisdom, is an invaluable companion for anyone seeking a transformative approach to financial health. Engaging and thought-provoking, this resource is one you’ll likely return to yearly to deepen the lessons learned during the first 30 days. I strongly recommend you pick up this book and buy copies for those in your life struggling with financial challenges.

This book is deeply spiritual and yet as practical as ever!
