Your Money and Your Mind - Enhance Well-being with Financial Fitness

Robert Khachatryan

According to the Money and Mental Health Policy Institute, people with debt are three times more likely to experience suicidal intensity because of the debt. A study by Northwestern Mutual found that 44% of Americans states that financial worries were their #1 stressor, with about one in four stating like they felt depressed about money at least once a month.Sometimes improving your mental health looks like going to a therapist; sometimes it looks like going to a financial mentor. What most people don’t realize is that many Employee Assistance Programs (“EAP”) have financial counseling services for this reason. In this episode, I speak with Robert Khachatryan about financial wellness and its connection to mental health. He shares these take-aways for employers and leaders in the workplace:
1. Provide the tools for financial preventative care.
2. Create a financially safe space.
About Robert KhachatryanRobert started his life wanting to become an astronaut and went to school for astrophysics, but as he grew in his career and life experiences, he realized that the human connection is what makes him happy, not going to space. Now, he works to connect people who need support with people who are actually good at it. He runs a company called Vector Goals where they help companies with retention and productivity through one-on-one coaching and classes on financial wellness and professional/personal development. What he’s learned — and what GenZ is teaching leaders — is that human connection matters at work. When employers care about the workers, workers tend to stay and commit more to them.
