Most of us don't actually have trouble making money. It's the keeping of it — the receiving of it — that's the problem. If you added up how much money has passed through your hands over your lifetime, the number would probably surprise you. It comes in, you manage it, you pay bills, and then it's "gone," so you never really see how much you're circulating. That's not a money-making problem. That's a receiving problem, and most women were never taught the skill.
In this solo episode, I break down what receiving actually is, why we were never taught to do it, and how you can start practicing it today.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
- The friendship bracelet story that reveals exactly when we're taught to stop receiving
- Why women in particular tend to under-apply for things they're qualified for — and where that pattern comes from
- Why your natural gifts were meant to become your living, not something you give away for free
- What a $40,000 handbag taught me about the difference between having money and actually receiving it
- Where you're already wealthy right now, even before more money shows up
- Small daily practices that start building your capacity to receive
