Dr. Gurney is a nationally recognized expert on the psychology of money management and investing, featured in major national and international publications, including the Wall Street Journal, Market Watch, New York Times, USA Today, International Herald Tribune, Money Magazine, and appearing on national and international television and radio shows, including numerous times on Oprah, CNN, CNBC shows Power Lunch and Business Center, Fox News, NBC Nightly News and all of the major networks.  She frequently serves as a corporate spokesperson for public relation campaigns and provides consulting and presentations for Fortune 500 companies and professional organizations.

 

 

“I am especially fortunate to know Kathleen Gurney personally as well as to have exposed to her work.  Her personality and warmth come through clearly in her writing and speaking.  She is a keen thinker about the relationship of money to our personalities, and its impact on us all.

 

Her insights are very special and she is able to express her ideas so clearly enabling many of us to understand ourselves better and see what we can change in our lives to make us happier.”
