Full disclosure here: my financial life was THE definition of a hot mess for a very long time.

Debt. Loss. Struggle. Scarcity. Fear. Guilt. Bad experiences. Relationships screwed up because of money. Some really unhelpful belief systems. Out of control, over-spending, emotional spending. Under-spending, lack-based spending, all types of freaking spending!

You name it. I’ve probably experienced it.

And yet, fast forward to now and I am genuinely proud of how I’m healing my relationship with money, changing my mindset around money, expanding my capacity to receive money, and even becoming accomplished at managing money – in order to build wealth.

I can still remember what it’s like to struggle with money, to feel unsafe around money, and to wish I could just get to that place where I’d never have to think about it again…

I remember going out for a walk with my favourite person, wanting so much to enjoy our time together, to appreciate the birds singing and the sun shining on my face, just to be in the moment….

And instead, all I could think about was the bills that were due and where the heck was I going to get the money for them???

There was no sense of peace or contentment, just constant worry.

The scars of my financial past were playing out in my life long after the experiences themselves had passed. And much as I longed to be free of them, there was a time when I couldn’t seem to shake them off. 

Even when I’d dramatically increased my income, I still felt out of control. I couldn’t manage my cash flow. However much there was, it was never enough. I was ashamed to look at it, fearful that I’d have to borrow again, even temporarily.

It seems crazy to me now. Like some kind of parallel life.

Now? I track my finances daily. I know exactly what’s going in and what’s coming out. I have my own emergency fund. I don’t borrow. I set goals for my income and expect all my lifestyle and business expenses to be paid easily and on time. I save ahead of time in sinking funds. I have in place the multiple avenues for money to come through that I once ‘wished for’ but somehow never ‘completed’.

So what changed?

I did.

My mindset. My beliefs. My actions.

I remember writing down in my journal ‘I am a great money manager’ and literally laughing at how ridiculous that was.

Now? I claim it – LOUD AND PROUD! Because I did the work.

I bootcamp-ed my money mindset (and I still do to this day!)

And that’s what this course is all about.
