44: Automation vs awareness

  • Summary

  • Automating aspects of your finances is convenient and ensures that you won’t forget to make important payments. On the flip side, automation leads to disengagement, when your finances seem to manage themselves why take the time to pay attention to them? This is especially true for people who lead busy complex lives and those who have mental health needs or are otherwise neurodivergent.


    There are areas of our finances where it’s important to be aware of what’s happening, especially because companies combine automated and manual processes carefully to make us pay more for goods and services than we might otherwise do.

    This episode is about finding the balance between convenience and mindfulness when it comes to our money. What needs our attention and what can we set up and allow to run itself?
