S.H.I.F.T.: The Behavior-Based Method to Lasting Wealth (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798997888107)

Most people don't struggle financially because they know too little. They struggle because financial decisions are shaped by emotion, stress, and the money stories they carry.

If you have ever felt stuck, embarrassed, overwhelmed, or behind in your financial life, the problem may not be a lack of discipline or knowledge. It may be that your money choices are being shaped by old stories, emotional triggers, inherited habits, and real-life pressure that traditional financial advice rarely addresses.

S.H.I.F.T.: The Behavior-Based Method to Lasting Wealth helps you look beneath the numbers to understand why you make certain financial decisions-and how to build practical systems that support better ones. Drawing on decades of financial education experience, Rodney Bolden introduces the S.H.I.F.T. framework: Sentiment, History, Impulses, Framework, and Trajectory.

This book will help you:

• Understand the emotions and money attitudes that influence everyday financial choices
• Identify the lessons, silences, and misinformation that shaped your money story
• Interrupt reactive spending, avoidance, fear, and financial FOMO before they take over
• Build practical systems for goals, budgeting, emergency savings, debt, investing, protection, and legacy
• Review and adjust your financial life with confidence as circumstances change

This is not a book about becoming perfect with money. It is a book about understanding your patterns, building systems you can return to, and taking the next honest step toward stability, resilience, peace, and purpose.

Written for individuals who feel financially stuck-and for workplace leaders, HR professionals, benefits teams, and equity plan managers who want to support employees with greater clarity and empathy-S.H.I.F.T. helps readers understand what has been driving their financial choices and build a steadier way forward.
