How would earning 6 figures make you feel? Statistics show that only 25% of women who make this amount feel safe, secure and confident. Now I’m on a mission to boost this number. I’m one of the 9% who makes six figures, and I got to where I am while being a single parent and going through chemotherapy and an expensive divorce. For as long as I remember, I’ve been helping my clients increase their revenue. Even when women came to me to improve their relationship with themselves, they also increased their self-worth and net worth. And that’s why I’m here — to help you close the gap between the two.

Welcome back to Loving Money, dear listener! After a short hiatus, I am excited to return and delve into the intricate relationship we share with money. In this episode, we talk about that pesky, toxic money story we tell ourselves.
As you’ll hear, I open up about the less-explored aspects of my financial journey. Our connection with money goes beyond mere transactions; it's a deep-rooted emotional and psychological journey, with complexities often overwhelming to break apart. Together, we will explore how to foster a healthy relationship with money at the core.
I believe in confronting the shadowy corners of our financial experiences to uncover valuable lessons, and I'll discuss how this process has unfolded in my life.
Like many of us, family dynamics play a pivotal role in shaping our beliefs about money, often setting expectations that influence our decisions. I'll share my personal encounter with these dynamics, including the contrasting lives of my step sisters and our upbringings. Through these stories, we'll understand the diversity of money's impact on our future, and what we believe we are worthy of having.
As we journey into the past, we'll explore how my upbringing sculpted my money-related beliefs, which in turn influenced various facets of my life. These belief systems are not isolated; they have a significant impact on our sense of security and stability, which I'll delve into.
What’s your money story? I encourage you to reflect on your own relationship with it, as we will unravel the unique ways your relationship with money manifests in your life.
