Why do we put off the very financial decisions that could make our lives easier? In this episode of Financial Fitness with The Money Doctor, Frances Rahaim, Ph.D., takes a closer look at financial procrastination—not as a flaw, but as a pattern with leverage points. From avoidance and overwhelm to uncertainty about where to begin, procrastination often signals something deeper than simple delay. This conversation explores what’s really happening beneath the surface—and how small, well-placed shifts can help you move forward with confidence. Because when it comes to your finances, progress doesn’t start with pressure. It starts with understanding.
Tiago Azevedo is a painter, architect, and multidisciplinary creative artist born in the Azores Islands, where the mystique of fog and fantastic landscapes sparked his creativity and inspiration from an early age. After graduating as an architect, he worked in Portugal and Germany, contributing to notable projects such as the restoration of the Bayerische Hof Hotel in Munich and various schools and universities across Europe. While architecture honed his understanding of form, proportion, and structure, painting remained his true passion and driving force. Recognizing the importance of pursuing his dreams, he transitioned to focus on his art career, blending classical techniques with contemporary vision.
Tiago's work draws heavily from religious themes, fantasy, and fairy tales—including stories by the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen. He is particularly drawn to the Baroque era for its dramatic contrasts and emotional intensity, which he fuses with a modern, fantastic aesthetic. Technically, he specializes in classical oil painting, integrating elements of Pop Surrealism and concepts from the great masters to create his distinctive style.
His oil paintings have been exhibited internationally in cities including London and New York, where he now resides. He has shown at the Carrousel du Louvre in Paris and participated in an art event associated with the Vatican in Romean ideal fit for the religious dimensions of his art. These exhibitions have earned him recognition from the public and international art critics alike.
Beyond the canvas, Tiago is a TV personality and host with a strong on-camera presence and a natural ability to connect with audiences. He featured in Season 2 of the HBO Max reality series Selling the Hamptons and produced a documentary exploring the connection between fashion and mental health during New York Fashion Week. Tiago commands a significant digital presence, with posts and livestreams generating millions in cumulative reach, impressions, and views through viral shares, algorithmic boosts, and explore-page visibility. Driven by empathy and a commitment to human connection, he supports nonprofit organizations, creates wigs for individuals undergoing cancer treatment, and leverages storytelling—both on camera and in his art—as a means for visibility, healing, and positive impact.
