Blake Eastman: Hard Work Won't Fix Your Money Problems - Money Stories Ep 3

April 22, 2025

Think hard work alone can solve your money woes? Behavioral scientist Blake Eastman says think again. In this eye-opening episode of Money Stories, Blake—founder of The Nonverbal Group and a former psych professor—reveals why our patterns, not our efforts, shape our financial reality. From childhood money stories to the psychology of risk, discover why grinding harder might be killing your finances—and how to break the cycle.


With a focus on teaching high-level people skills, Eastman has coached executives and teams, and his company is building the largest database of contextually coded human interactions. He also founded Behavioral Robotics, an AI deep tech startup teaching machines to read human behavior, and is known for conducting the largest behavioral study on poker players through his Beyond Tells project.


Key Takeaways: Unpack cognitive biases, rethink wealth beyond the bank account, and learn to shortcut suffering with awareness and insight.
