💛 If the $9 Membership Feels Out of Reach — Let’s Talk 💛
I want to talk about something that’s come up quietly in a few conversations, because I know some of you are thinking it — even if you haven’t said it out loud.
Some members have shared that they want the $9 membership, but feel like they can’t afford it.
First, I want you to hear this clearly:💛 There is no judgment here. Everyone’s financial season is different, and there are times when every dollar truly matters.
At the same time, I want to gently invite you to look at this from a slightly different angle — not with pressure, but with kindness toward yourself.
🌱 Sometimes It’s Not About the Amount — It’s About Awareness
Many of us don’t notice how often small expenses quietly slip through, like:
☕ A premium coffee or treat
🍔 Fast food on a busy day
📺 Subscriptions we signed up for and forgot about
🛍 Convenience purchases when we’re tired
🚗 Extra delivery fees
📱 Apps or memberships we rarely use
Individually, they don’t feel like much. But together, they can easily add up to more than $9 a month.
This isn’t about guilt. It’s about choice.
💡 Practical Ways Make It Work
Here are some other ideas to try — take what fits your life, ignore the rest:
☕ Skip one premium coffee a week
🍟 Cook one extra meal at home
📺 Review subscriptions and cancel just one you no longer use
💳 Set aside $2–$3 a week intentionally
🎁 Ask for the membership as a gift
🧾 Do a “30-day pause” on impulse spending
💰 Use a small cashback or rewards balance
Many people are surprised how quickly those small shifts cover the cost — and keep paying them back month after month.
💛 The Mindset Piece (This Matters)
This part comes from the heart:
A lot of us were taught that spending money on ourselves should be the last priority — something we only do if there’s “extra.”
But support, clarity, and confidence aren’t indulgences. They’re investments in peace, learning, and growth.
And you’re allowed to decide that your time, energy, and joy matter.
🌟 No Pressure — Just Permission
If now isn’t the right time, that’s okay. You are always welcome here, exactly as you are.
But if a small shift could make it possible…know that the door is open, the price is still $9 (or $79/year), and the support inside is real.
Whatever you choose, I’m glad you’re part of this community. And I believe in you — with or without a paid membership. 💛🧶
If you ever want to talk it through, my inbox is always open.
