The holiday season is upon us and it’s time to determine your plan for getting through the holiday season without accumulating debt or more debt.

I find the stress people feel that come through my office at Fern Life Center (www.fernlifecenter.com) leads to disease; especially chronic, constant stress. The stress comes from many places, but one primary source is financial. This week my guest on HealthyYou! is Marcia Brixey,  author of The Money Therapist. With the economy in the news every day and bank accounts and retirement plans looking slimmer, Marcia Brixey’s message has never been more applicable.

The Money Therapist offers women of every financial strata the advice, tips, and solutions they need to get out of debt, create a budget, spend wisely, and save money. Marcia’s empowering, you-can-do-it attitude, helpful tools and resources, encourage and inspire women to achieve financial fitness. With information on organizing financial records, getting out of credit card debt, safeguarding against identity theft, and taking advantage of interest through automatic deductions, The Money Therapist is the first step to achieving financial peace of mind.

In addition to her book, five years ago Marica  founded Money Wise Womenâ„¢ Educational Services to ensure that every woman be financially articulate, confident, secure and independent.  Today she hosts Money Wi$e Womenâ„¢ forums throughout the Western United States. This January 9th, there will be a Money Wise Women Conference at North Seattle Community College from 9am – 4:30pm. For a registration fee of ONLY $39 you will get the conference, lunch, coffee and a copy of  The Money Therapist. Start the new year with a new set of financial tools by attending this conference!
