Money Talk - Flowing and Growing

💭 I grew up watching my mom work herself into exhaustion, clocking hours that would break most people… and still, we were broke. I carried that picture with me: work harder, get less. Years later, I found myself underpaid by brands that were extracting my value while feeding me scraps. I believed I was worth more, but my actions and my subconscious programming kept me in the same loop.

That’s the poverty mindset. And the scariest part? Most of us don’t even know we have it. I didn’t know until I read the following books:

🌟secrets of a millionaire mind

🌟the psychology of money

📉 Poverty mindset whispers:

💥Money is scarce.

💥Wealthy people are greedy.

💥If I make more, someone else has less.

💥I can’t charge that much, I’ll lose them.

💥finding a way to get our nervous system back to our comfort zone of being broke

📈 Wealth mindset answers:

✅Money is abundant energy.

✅Wealthy people with integrity create opportunities.

✅When I grow, I create space for others to grow.

✅The more value I provide, the more fair exchange I deserve.

T. Harv Eker said it best in Secrets of the Millionaire Mind: “Your income can only grow to the extent that you do.” If your internal thermostat is set to survival, you’ll find ways to self-sabotage whenever overflow shows up.

The shift is not just about numbers.. it’s about rewiring belief. Your bank account will always tell the truth about your mindset.

✨ Innercise Reflections :

Do you feel guilty when you earn more than the people around you?
When money comes in, do you look for ways to protect it or do you unconsciously look for ways to spend it?
If money mirrored your self-worth, what story would it tell?

What is one spending habit you will change for the remainder of the year? ⬇️

Money doesn’t change who you are. It magnifies it.

Thermostat Thursday let’s get it!
