There’s a small moment with money that I’ve noticed over the years.
For some people, it shows up when they check their bank balance and realize they don’t react the way they once did. No internal scramble. No story about what it says about them. No mental math to explain anything to anyone.
It usually isn’t because someone suddenly got “better with money.” More often, it comes after some inner work. The kind where a person stops letting a number dictate their worth, their decisions, or how they’re doing in life.
The bank balance doesn’t change. The meaning attached to it does. After that, the number just reads like information.
And that’s a completely different experience.
This is the kind of mindset and identity work we explore inside This Chapter Matters, with practical tools for real change.
