- 1:21Speaker 2: you I will try to keep you keep you on
- 1:23Speaker 2: the edge of your seat. I'm going to talk about
- 1:25Speaker 2: something today that is not talked about in the financial industry.
- 1:29Speaker 2: We're going to talk about the three barriers to wealth
- 1:31Speaker 2: for women. I'm going to go into so much detail.
- 1:34Speaker 2: I'm going to do a slide show and I'm going
- 1:36Speaker 2: to show you all kinds of things. So grab a
- 1:37Speaker 2: pen and paper, sit down, and then replay this over
- 1:40Speaker 2: and over again, because this is going to share with
- 1:43Speaker 2: you why it's not your fault, and you're going to
- 1:47Speaker 2: be able to take some tips and tricks down on
- 1:50Speaker 2: to be on how to get rid of that stress
- 1:52Speaker 2: and overwhelm and step into the abundance that you totally
- 1:54Speaker 2: deserve and desire. Okay, you're Ready're going to dive right
- 1:57Speaker 2: into the presentation and we're going to keep you going.
- 2:01Speaker 2: So I believe that there is a difference between feminine
- 2:06Speaker 2: financial freedom and masculine financial freedom. I believe that this
- 2:10Speaker 2: industry is completely created by men, and it speaks to
- 2:15Speaker 2: men very well. Now I've been in this industry for many,
- 2:18Speaker 2: many years, decades actually, and I can speak it as well.
- 2:22Speaker 2: And a lot of us women who are successful, we
- 2:24Speaker 2: are stepping into that as well, but we're using a
- 2:27Speaker 2: lot of our masculine brain. In fact, I was told
- 2:29Speaker 2: when I started in this industry that I could not
- 2:33Speaker 2: wear dangly earrings, I had to have a blazer on
- 2:36Speaker 2: at all times. I could not wear open toad shoes.
- 2:38Speaker 2: I had to wear nylons if I was going to
- 2:40Speaker 2: wear a skirt, or I had to be in pants.
- 2:42Speaker 2: Like this is literally in my lifetime, y'all. And so
- 2:47Speaker 2: I think it was just really raised that men know
- 2:49Speaker 2: what they're doing with money. And I remember in my
- 2:53Speaker 2: first marriage in the early eighties that I had to
- 2:56Speaker 2: have my husband come with me to the bank in
- 2:59Speaker 2: order to open up account.
- 3:01Speaker 1: So I didn't think much of it back.
- 3:02Speaker 2: Then because my mom was pretty much a powerhouse and
- 3:06Speaker 2: helped my dad run the businesses, and so I never
- 3:09Speaker 2: really thought about women in business and banking and.
- 3:12Speaker 1: All of that.
- 3:13Speaker 2: So it's been very different for us, and we are
- 3:16Speaker 2: kind of fifty years behind the game.
- 3:18Speaker 1: So everybody take a breath with me.
- 3:21Speaker 2: Oh, you can relax because it's not your fault at all.
- 3:25Speaker 2: So we're going to talk about the differences of what's
- 3:27Speaker 2: out there and what actually would be needed for women. Okay,
- 3:33Speaker 2: So why our finance is so stressful and overwhelming And.
- 3:37Speaker 1: Here's the deal.
- 3:39Speaker 2: Feelings change everything, ladies, how we feel about our money,
- 3:44Speaker 2: is it? Gentlemen, if you're listening as well, I have
- 3:46Speaker 2: a lot of male clients that have the same feelings
- 3:50Speaker 2: around their emotions around their money as well. I'm being
- 3:53Speaker 2: very generalistic when I am talking about feminine versus masculine, okay,
- 3:59Speaker 2: because we can all they are all both, right, So
- 4:02Speaker 2: the feeling financially free is what we're striving for. It's
- 4:07Speaker 2: going to take us time to get there. However, we
- 4:10Speaker 2: can grab that feeling right now. And that is the
- 4:13Speaker 2: difference between everything. So every day we all get up,
- 4:17Speaker 2: we all have the same hours in the day, right,
- 4:19Speaker 2: and we also can do what we want with those hours,
- 4:22Speaker 2: and we all think about money every day.
- 4:25Speaker 1: It's actually on average ten times a day.
- 4:27Speaker 2: So if you don't have a good relationship with money,
- 4:29Speaker 2: how are you feeling when you think about it ten
- 4:31Speaker 2: times a day? Do you want to keep bringing up
- 4:33Speaker 2: that stress ten times a day? So we're going to
- 4:35Speaker 2: talk about that today as well. So you actually have
- 4:38Speaker 2: the ability to spend or to save several times a
- 4:42Speaker 2: day every day. Right, And our relationship with money, here's
- 4:47Speaker 2: the secret.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Are you ready?
- 4:49Speaker 2: It has nothing to do with the zeros in your bank.
- 4:52Speaker 2: I know it feels like it does, but I promise
- 4:55Speaker 2: you it has everything to do with how you feel
- 4:58Speaker 2: about the zeros in your bank. Because some people could
- 5:01Speaker 2: feel amazing with one thousand dollars and some people feel
- 5:04Speaker 2: totally broke with one hundred thousand dollars. So it's literally
- 5:07Speaker 2: about how you feel about the zeros in your bank. Okay,
- 5:12Speaker 2: So let's step into wanting better relationships with our partners,
- 5:15Speaker 2: better relationships with our friends, better relationships with our family,
- 5:19Speaker 2: and all of it stems with our relationship with money
- 5:22Speaker 2: and our relationship with ourself. So I want you to
- 5:26Speaker 2: have your money working for you so that you can
- 5:29Speaker 2: actually have fun with your hobbies. Just go travel, go
- 5:33Speaker 2: do what you want to do. And the biggest worry
- 5:36Speaker 2: that most Americans have is when will you have enough
- 5:41Speaker 2: and will you run out of money? So we all
- 5:44Speaker 2: need to know that shares in here.
- 5:46Speaker 1: I love her. We'll talk about her later.
- 5:48Speaker 2: So if you don't know me yet, Certified divorce financial Analyst,
- 5:51Speaker 2: Certified money coach, I'm a fiduciary, I'm a private wealth advisor. Yes,
- 5:56Speaker 2: I've done really, really well. You might listen to my
- 6:01Speaker 2: podcast that says divorce Eque's death, that explains to you
- 6:04Speaker 2: the loss of my children here, Nicholas and Scheri when
- 6:06Speaker 2: I was twenty nine. That started my emotional growth and
- 6:11Speaker 2: making a decision to be here. And I know that
- 6:13Speaker 2: I'm here to empower women. I know that I am
- 6:15Speaker 2: here on this planet. So my kids are always with me.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Nick and Tree, They're behind everything I do. They're burst
- 6:20Speaker 2: on his Diamond, which is my business's names, Diamond Life
- 6:24Speaker 2: Strategies and Diamond Life Planning. They're a huge part of
- 6:27Speaker 2: why I'm here and why I do what I do.
- 6:30Speaker 2: Since that time, since I lost my children thirty years ago,
- 6:34Speaker 2: I have been screwed over by several gentlemen in the
- 6:39Speaker 2: financial industry, and so that's why I do what I do.
- 6:43Speaker 2: And I can tell you feeling financially free is amazing
- 6:47Speaker 2: I literally choose my lifestyle. I actually am going to
- 6:51Speaker 2: the beach later. I'm very excited. I've helped thousands of people,
- 6:55Speaker 2: and I live my diamond life, I call it. And
- 6:58Speaker 2: that's because I know my health and I know my
- 7:01Speaker 2: true self, and I live my purpose every single day
- 7:03Speaker 2: and I'm joyous every single day, which is exciting. So
- 7:07Speaker 2: I am here to help you find your purpose and
- 7:11Speaker 2: find your wealth. And I can tell you I've been
- 7:15Speaker 2: on that money roller coaster for so many years, up
- 7:17Speaker 2: and down single mom, oh my gosh. Every time I
- 7:20Speaker 2: transferred a company, my licensees took a while to transfer,
- 7:23Speaker 2: and I had zero income coming in. Talk about emotional
- 7:27Speaker 2: roller coaster. Have you ever like done really really well,
- 7:30Speaker 2: saved a great amount, have a good amount of savings,
- 7:33Speaker 2: and then something big pops up and secks it all dry, right,
- 7:37Speaker 2: or you lose your job, or the inflation's going up
- 7:40Speaker 2: like it's crazy, Like there's no telling, but that roller
- 7:42Speaker 2: coaster is exhausting. And of course we're stressed out over money.
- 7:46Speaker 2: Look at everything we have to deal with, bankruptcy, unemployment, pollution,
- 7:51Speaker 2: everything that's happening right now in our country. We have
- 7:54Speaker 2: a divorce war, we have you might be dealing with
- 7:58Speaker 2: death through COVID, might have a poverty crisis. Like, there's
- 8:02Speaker 2: so many different things that we could be stressed out about.
- 8:05Speaker 2: And ladies, here's the deal. We take that on ourself.
- 8:09Speaker 2: We are here to hold up the world. So when
- 8:12Speaker 2: we're talking to a friend or when we're hearing something
- 8:15Speaker 2: on the news, it goes in our body and it
- 8:18Speaker 2: actually has something to do with our relationship with ourself
- 8:21Speaker 2: and our money. So here's my first tip. Turn off
- 8:24Speaker 2: the news. It's all fake anyways, So no worries. Turn
- 8:28Speaker 2: off the news. And ladies, if you have any friends
- 8:33Speaker 2: that are the woe is me gal that's in your
- 8:35Speaker 2: ear all the time, let her know that she has
- 8:37Speaker 2: fifteen minutes with you to talk about anything negative or
- 8:41Speaker 2: three minutes, and then we're going to go to the
- 8:44Speaker 2: positive and the future and being happy and joyous. Otherwise
- 8:47Speaker 2: you might have to cut her out of your life.
- 8:49Speaker 2: And if you are negative Nelly, I love you, find
- 8:52Speaker 2: some therapy, grab a coach. Yes I'm free, and switch
- 8:56Speaker 2: out of that negative Nelly to amazing positive Paula. Okay,
- 9:01Speaker 2: because it's not useful for you and or anyone else.
- 9:05Speaker 2: We want you to find the foundation of success the
- 9:08Speaker 2: feminine way. So here's the first thing you do, padent paper,
- 9:12Speaker 2: goals and dreams. I want you to write down your
- 9:16Speaker 2: goals and dreams. And then we're going to look at
- 9:18Speaker 2: what is actually holding you back from what your desired
- 9:21Speaker 2: life is. And it's not your fault at all. So
- 9:25Speaker 2: we're going to step into the three barriers to wealth.
- 9:27Speaker 2: The first one, we're going to find out why you're
- 9:30Speaker 2: stressed with money. Here we go women and wealth and
- 9:34Speaker 2: our financial history. We couldn't even open up our own
- 9:37Speaker 2: account until nineteen sixty. Nineteen sixty four, we actually had
- 9:41Speaker 2: to pass a law that says no discrimination. Okay, that
- 9:45Speaker 2: is obvious, it's already in the constitution. And here we are,
- 9:48Speaker 2: we are now having to pass another law in nineteen
- 9:51Speaker 2: sixty four, no discriminating on sex, because it was happening
- 9:55Speaker 2: so much. Right nineteen seventy two, we had to pass
- 9:59Speaker 2: the Education Amendments that outlaw discrimination based on gender. So
- 10:03Speaker 2: nineteen sixty four didn't work. Now we're doing nineteen sixty two.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Now you can't discriminate based on gender. Like, we just
- 10:10Speaker 2: keep striving to move forward, right, but we're still we
- 10:13Speaker 2: still have a huge wage gap between men and women
- 10:16Speaker 2: in this country now, nineteen seventy three, Roe versus Wade,
- 10:19Speaker 2: What do't you even want to talk about? Where that
- 10:21Speaker 2: is at this point? Depending on your beliefs, which side
- 10:23Speaker 2: of the fence, I'm clearly women's rights. Whatever you want
- 10:26Speaker 2: to do, that should be your right. Two thousand and
- 10:29Speaker 2: nine the Fair Pay Act. So even nineteen sixty four,
- 10:32Speaker 2: nineteen seventy two, we're still not getting paid the same.
- 10:34Speaker 2: So two thousand and nine they put in the Fair
- 10:37Speaker 2: Pay Act. That's still not happening. Twenty fourteen, yay, the
- 10:43Speaker 2: first woman Chair of the Federal Reserve, Janet Yellen, first
- 10:48Speaker 2: woman in finance, that's actually doing something. And just twenty fourteen,
- 10:52Speaker 2: so nine.
- 10:53Speaker 1: Years ago, we literally are just gaining ground of women
- 10:58Speaker 1: in finance.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Of course, we're stressed out. So let's create the foundation
- 11:03Speaker 2: for you and your financial success. Here is the first tip.
- 11:10Speaker 1: Are you ready ask for help? Ladies? We have to
- 11:14Speaker 1: create our own money team. We cannot do it on
- 11:17Speaker 1: our own.
- 11:18Speaker 2: I have tried to do that so many times and
- 11:23Speaker 2: failed until I learned more.
- 11:26Speaker 1: So once I learned more, I'm.
- 11:28Speaker 2: Trusting my gut, I'm trusting my own intuition, and definitely
- 11:33Speaker 2: having my amazing CPA. I have a tax advisor. Of course,
- 11:38Speaker 2: I have my own mentors in the financial I've always
- 11:42Speaker 2: had my own financial advisor.
- 11:44Speaker 1: Now I have my team. I have another colleague.
- 11:46Speaker 2: You guys have seen her on here a couple of times,
- 11:48Speaker 2: Miss Juliette Cardona.
- 11:50Speaker 1: She's amazing as well. I have my whole team behind me,
- 11:54Speaker 1: Rob and my money manager. I have my whole team
- 11:57Speaker 1: behind me, so we're not doing it by ourselves. What
- 12:01Speaker 1: I don't know, I will grab. I have my estate planner,
- 12:05Speaker 1: Lulina Miles, She's amazing. So we need to have people
- 12:09Speaker 1: that we don't know everything about. And let's be honest,
- 12:14Speaker 1: do we really need to know everything about something that
- 12:16Speaker 1: we're going to touch once a year?
- 12:17Speaker 2: We absolutely do not. So if you are a woman
- 12:20Speaker 2: business owner, or if you're just a basy busy lady
- 12:24Speaker 2: or gentlemen, if you're listening as well, you need to
- 12:27Speaker 2: hire out things that you don't want to do personally.
- 12:31Speaker 1: I do not want to stand in line.
- 12:33Speaker 2: I love Instacart. Covid has changed my life with Instacart.
- 12:37Speaker 2: I love it, and I know you can pay extra
- 12:39Speaker 2: fees and they can charge what they want, and I
- 12:40Speaker 2: know all the tricks about that, and I don't care.
- 12:43Speaker 2: It is so worth me not getting in my car
- 12:45Speaker 2: driving down the street to go buy the groceries and
- 12:48Speaker 2: stand in a line and come home and put them away.
- 12:50Speaker 2: It's not going to happen otherwise. If we're not doing that,
- 12:53Speaker 2: then we're going to go out to eat.
- 12:54Speaker 1: Well.
- 12:54Speaker 2: I can tell you that is quadruple the price, especially
- 12:56Speaker 2: here in Beverly. Okay, back, sorry, So I want to
- 13:05Speaker 2: make sure that you're putting your money where you want
- 13:09Speaker 2: it to go. But we have to create a team
- 13:12Speaker 2: and understand we don't need to know everything. We don't
- 13:15Speaker 2: need to know. We need to trust people that we don't.
- 13:18Speaker 2: I want you to have systems in place. I used
- 13:22Speaker 2: to call it mailbox to the shredder. I want you
- 13:24Speaker 2: to know what you're going to do with every piece
- 13:26Speaker 2: of paper. Does anybody have a stack in their house
- 13:28Speaker 2: that they haven't gone to yet.
- 13:30Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Those stacks have energy. They create energy
- 13:34Speaker 1: and they build in it and it's like the yucky
- 13:37Speaker 1: feeling when you walk by it. Because it's a to
- 13:38Speaker 1: do right, it's a thing that you have to to do.
- 13:41Speaker 2: So we create a system from the paper from when
- 13:45Speaker 2: you pick it up from the mailbox or when you
- 13:47Speaker 2: sit down and open it up your computer. I want
- 13:50Speaker 2: you to know exactly where you're going to put that.
- 13:52Speaker 2: I want you to put in the folders that it's
- 13:53Speaker 2: supposed to be in, and yes, add color because I
- 13:57Speaker 2: love my I have a plate that I've put all
- 14:00Speaker 2: of my mail on when I come in from the mailbox.
- 14:03Speaker 2: I have mail half electronic at this point, and I
- 14:06Speaker 2: love this plate. So when I'm bringing in this mail
- 14:08Speaker 2: and putting the mail on the plate, and it brings
- 14:12Speaker 2: me joy. So now I'm attaching joy to all of
- 14:15Speaker 2: the mail that's coming in, which really helps the energy
- 14:18Speaker 2: coming into my household.
- 14:20Speaker 1: That's amazing.
- 14:21Speaker 2: Then I have my weekly money date, which I'll go
- 14:23Speaker 2: into further, and I sit down and I go through
- 14:26Speaker 2: all of that mail on a weekly basis. Then I
- 14:29Speaker 2: immediately either file it or shred it, and it's done.
- 14:33Speaker 2: I do not want piles to build up, So create
- 14:36Speaker 2: systems to make sure that you have something to do
- 14:39Speaker 2: with your monthly bills that are due. Scheduling a weekly
- 14:43Speaker 2: money date this is a genius. I got this from
- 14:46Speaker 2: my coaches, which was so amazing. They said, to clean
- 14:52Speaker 2: up your money shiit on a weekly basis, and that's
- 14:56Speaker 2: when I started this money date. So I totally stole
- 14:59Speaker 2: this from Shannon Mark and I love it. So I
- 15:03Speaker 2: sit down and I have my music, either Friday night
- 15:05Speaker 2: or Sunday night.
- 15:07Speaker 1: I love.
- 15:07Speaker 2: I'm looking outside right now, my big window. It's beautiful,
- 15:10Speaker 2: so I either have the sunshine orf in the winter.
- 15:12Speaker 2: I have my candles lit and I'm cozy and comfy,
- 15:15Speaker 2: and my spreadsheet on my computer is purple and pink
- 15:19Speaker 2: and all my pretty colors, and I'm highlighting in my
- 15:22Speaker 2: green and yellow whatever i need to do, and I
- 15:26Speaker 2: love it. It brings me joy because it's my favorite color.
- 15:28Speaker 2: So start with your favorite colors. Then my filing system.
- 15:32Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, have you ever seen those.
- 15:34Speaker 1: Four tier filing drawers.
- 15:37Speaker 2: I used to have so many of those, and now
- 15:39Speaker 2: I have one little box. So check out Pinterest, check
- 15:42Speaker 2: out whatever you want to do to get a good
- 15:45Speaker 2: filing system. Since I'm never going to need those files
- 15:49Speaker 2: again because I'm completely organized and up to date, and
- 15:52Speaker 2: the IRS needs me to keep those and that's fine.
- 15:54Speaker 1: I will keep those, but since.
- 15:56Speaker 2: I'm never going to need them again, I have big
- 15:58Speaker 2: categories house, car, business, credit cards, kids, pets like I
- 16:07Speaker 2: have very few individual files. Back in the day, in
- 16:11Speaker 2: my twenties, when I opened up my very first business,
- 16:14Speaker 2: you would not believe the files that I had. I
- 16:17Speaker 2: had one for every single company that I was dealing with.
- 16:20Speaker 2: I had, you know, phone and water and every individual thing.
- 16:24Speaker 2: Now it's just utilities like it doesn't matter, so it's
- 16:27Speaker 2: up to you. You do you, but realize how much
- 16:31Speaker 2: time it takes to get all organized with this and
- 16:33Speaker 2: how often do you actually need it. So check that
- 16:36Speaker 2: out before you get too crazy in it.
- 16:38Speaker 1: But make it pretty. Mine's in a little white box.
- 16:40Speaker 1: I absolutely love it.
- 16:41Speaker 2: I have all my little colored folders so that I'm
- 16:44Speaker 2: enjoying filing that at the end of my money date,
- 16:47Speaker 2: when I'm paid that bill and I filed it, it's good.
- 16:49Speaker 2: I also have my whole electronic filing system as well.
- 16:54Speaker 2: That of course is backed up, so don't forget to
- 16:56Speaker 2: back up everything electronic.
- 16:58Speaker 1: Don't blow your computer and have no backup.
- 17:00Speaker 2: So that's definitely backed up, so that I don't have
- 17:03Speaker 2: to keep as much paper as I used to have,
- 17:06Speaker 2: which is to me, I think it's wonderful. This is
- 17:10Speaker 2: where everybody gets scared. We have to know our numbers.
- 17:13Speaker 2: I know it's scary, but I say, know and love
- 17:16Speaker 2: your numbers. So look back at three months of everything
- 17:19Speaker 2: that you've spent, every dime that you've spent in the household,
- 17:22Speaker 2: and yes, if you have quick Books or Quicken or
- 17:25Speaker 2: whatever you might have. I don't want it just to
- 17:27Speaker 2: be groceries. I want it to be Costco, Ralph's, Albertson,
- 17:31Speaker 2: safe Way, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's. I want to know
- 17:33Speaker 2: the individual grocery store because you're going to see patterns
- 17:37Speaker 2: that you're doing and you could actually be spending more
- 17:40Speaker 2: money than you need to be spending. I get organic,
- 17:42Speaker 2: I get you know, I do a lot from Whole
- 17:44Speaker 2: Foods and Trader Joe's. I get that, but there's some
- 17:46Speaker 2: things that you don't necessarily need to have from there.
- 17:49Speaker 2: So let's see if you can find some pennies in that.
- 17:52Speaker 2: So we want to have individual categories. Just look back
- 17:55Speaker 2: three months.
- 17:56Speaker 1: That's it.
- 17:56Speaker 2: Do an Excel spreadsheet. In my program, I have a
- 17:59Speaker 2: custom cash flow document that we go over and we
- 18:02Speaker 2: switch our mindset around every single dime that we're spending
- 18:05Speaker 2: in our household to attach it to something with joy.
- 18:08Speaker 2: So it's genius. I must say my coach in Brigham
- 18:11Speaker 2: is genius. So we do need to know our numbers
- 18:14Speaker 2: because a lot of us. I just met with a
- 18:15Speaker 2: client yesterday and she's stressed out about everything she has
- 18:17Speaker 2: to do, and I'm like, okay, well let's talk about it,
- 18:19Speaker 2: and it's all up here in her mind.
- 18:21Speaker 1: I'm like, let's write it down. She wrote it all down.
- 18:23Speaker 2: She's like, oh, that's a lot less than I thought.
- 18:25Speaker 2: So we do need to do this, okay, And then if.
- 18:28Speaker 1: You're afraid, grab a friend, get a finance buddy to
- 18:32Speaker 1: go with. We need to have a plan as well.
- 18:34Speaker 1: We need to have a money plan.
- 18:35Speaker 2: This is where your financial advisor, your financial planner comes
- 18:38Speaker 2: into play as well. I do planning as well for
- 18:40Speaker 2: clients I need. I find that I need they We
- 18:44Speaker 2: do so much stress when we have a plan because
- 18:47Speaker 2: we are so stressed because we don't know what's going
- 18:49Speaker 2: to happen. Now we can have plan A plan B.
- 18:51Speaker 2: I've even had people come to me say I don't
- 18:52Speaker 2: know if I'm gonna stay married or not. Okay, great,
- 18:54Speaker 2: so I have a plan, A plan B. I don't
- 18:56Speaker 2: know if I want this job or if I want
- 18:57Speaker 2: to own my own business. Then we have plan A
- 18:59Speaker 2: Plan B, but we definitely have numbers down the road.
- 19:02Speaker 2: And this is why we do our goals first, for
- 19:05Speaker 2: goals and dreams and desires and wishes first, so that
- 19:08Speaker 2: we can create a plan with that to say, Okay,
- 19:11Speaker 2: what are we going to need in three months, what
- 19:13Speaker 2: are we going to need six months? What are we
- 19:15Speaker 2: going to need in a year?
- 19:16Speaker 1: Like?
- 19:16Speaker 2: We need to have some type of a plan going
- 19:18Speaker 2: forward so that that way we know where we're at
- 19:21Speaker 2: right now in your twenties, thirties, forties, fifties, sixties, seventies.
- 19:25Speaker 2: We need to know how much we're going to spin
- 19:26Speaker 2: throughout our lifetime so we don't have to be stressed
- 19:29Speaker 2: out about it now. And we need to have a
- 19:30Speaker 2: certain savings going to that plan. But no one wants
- 19:35Speaker 2: to just save for anything. I want to save for
- 19:39Speaker 2: something specific. If I'm going to save for a trip,
- 19:41Speaker 2: I'm going to get excited. If I'm going to save
- 19:43Speaker 2: for a car, I know what's happening right now. I'm
- 19:45Speaker 2: going to save because i want to up update my wardrobe,
- 19:48Speaker 2: so that's exciting. I'm looking at different things that I'll
- 19:51Speaker 2: be buying. I do vision boards, I put in little
- 19:53Speaker 2: outfits and little things that I want down the road.
- 19:56Speaker 1: It's really fun to be able to do that. Now
- 19:59Speaker 1: we need to create.
- 20:00Speaker 2: Systems as well, So we have to have a plan
- 20:04Speaker 2: and we need to create systems of everything that we do.
- 20:06Speaker 2: Have you heard of the automatic millionaire? You know these
- 20:09Speaker 2: are old school books, but it's still true. When you
- 20:11Speaker 2: have automatic savings happening, you are creating a system and
- 20:15Speaker 2: you're not thinking about it. You all know that we
- 20:17Speaker 2: have a subconscious and a conscious and when we have
- 20:21Speaker 2: you ever driven from one place to another, maybe from
- 20:24Speaker 2: work to home, home to someone else and you're like
- 20:26Speaker 2: you arriving, You're like, oh my god, I don't even
- 20:28Speaker 2: know how it got there. That is your unconscious driving
- 20:30Speaker 2: that car, because you've done it so many times. We
- 20:33Speaker 2: want a lot of things in systems because if you
- 20:36Speaker 2: do not have a good relationship with money and you
- 20:39Speaker 2: have to deal with it ten times a day, when't
- 20:41Speaker 2: you want it to have it on autopilots so that
- 20:43Speaker 2: you don't have to actually bring it in your consciousness.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Because when we bring something into our consciousness, we attract
- 20:49Speaker 2: more of whatever is here. And if you don't believe me,
- 20:52Speaker 2: think of a color and see how many times you're
- 20:55Speaker 2: going to see that color over the next two or
- 20:57Speaker 2: three days. What we focus on persists. So if you
- 21:00Speaker 2: have something in systems already built out, already savings to
- 21:04Speaker 2: short term goal, midterm goal, long term goal, if that's
- 21:07Speaker 2: automatic as soon as your check hits your account, or
- 21:10Speaker 2: if you're a business owner, every time you get a
- 21:11Speaker 2: new client or monthly, you're going to funnel a certain
- 21:15Speaker 2: amount every account, then it's automatically happening and you don't
- 21:20Speaker 2: have to worry about it.
- 21:21Speaker 1: Because here's the trick.
- 21:23Speaker 2: We will spend what we have in our account, y'all period,
- 21:28Speaker 2: we will spend what we have in our account. So
- 21:31Speaker 2: we want to have those systems to pull the money
- 21:34Speaker 2: out as soon as we get it, to pay taxes,
- 21:36Speaker 2: to pay our monthly expenses, to pay our midterm goals,
- 21:40Speaker 2: our long term goals. We want to make sure that
- 21:42Speaker 2: our money's being funneled because what's left, I guarantee you
- 21:46Speaker 2: you will spend it. So we want to make sure
- 21:49Speaker 2: that we have systems taking place. Here's our goals and dreams.
- 21:52Speaker 2: Are you ready zero to three months, one year, three year,
- 21:56Speaker 2: five year, ten year plus simple easyps?
- 21:59Speaker 1: So your goals and dreams. I also call this wants
- 22:03Speaker 1: and needs. Your financial advisor might be calling it that
- 22:05Speaker 1: as well.
- 22:06Speaker 2: I add wishes on there, wants, needs and wishes because
- 22:10Speaker 2: I want to be able to play golf all the
- 22:14Speaker 2: time in my retirement. I need to have my medical,
- 22:17Speaker 2: my housing, and my food taken care of. And I
- 22:20Speaker 2: wish that I could travel to Greece on my beautiful
- 22:26Speaker 2: river crews.
- 22:27Speaker 1: That's you know, five to ten grand every year. That's
- 22:29Speaker 1: a wish.
- 22:30Speaker 2: So we want to create our goals and our dreams
- 22:33Speaker 2: and our desires accordingly what we really need to have
- 22:37Speaker 2: and what we want to have in the future. Like
- 22:38Speaker 2: you might want to have a few rental houses, or
- 22:41Speaker 2: you might want to build a big ranch or maybe
- 22:43Speaker 2: an in law quarters, and you need to make sure
- 22:46Speaker 2: that you're not going to run out of money to
- 22:48Speaker 2: eat in retirement. I hope that makes sense, all right,
- 22:51Speaker 2: Stepping into the three barriers.
- 22:53Speaker 1: Finally, three barriers.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Number one mindset, Yes, it is mindset.
- 23:01Speaker 1: Everybody jumps straight to the dollars and the numbers, and
- 23:06Speaker 1: they jumped straight to what exactly do you have and
- 23:11Speaker 1: what do you want to have? But I can tell
- 23:14Speaker 1: you if we're not focusing on the right things. With
- 23:16Speaker 1: our mindset, we're never going to create the wealth we
- 23:19Speaker 1: deserve and desire. We have to start with a number
- 23:22Speaker 1: one barrier, which is our mindset. So here is your trick.
- 23:29Speaker 1: What was the theme.
- 23:31Speaker 2: Around money in your household growing up? I hate to
- 23:35Speaker 2: tell you, but you already formed your relationship with money
- 23:38Speaker 2: before you were ten years old, some before you were
- 23:40Speaker 2: eight years old, So you already started creating your beliefs
- 23:44Speaker 2: around money and wealth before you even knew what it was.
- 23:49Speaker 2: So look back at the theme around your household. If
- 23:52Speaker 2: your parents were always arguing over money, money might be
- 23:56Speaker 2: a stressor for you, so you're going to never want
- 23:58Speaker 2: to sit down and have your money.
- 24:01Speaker 1: If you grew up in a.
- 24:03Speaker 2: Maybe poor household, or I've even had very wealthy household,
- 24:07Speaker 2: however they told you that you were poor, and so
- 24:10Speaker 2: you always felt like there was never enough, So you're
- 24:13Speaker 2: not going to want to talk about your money or
- 24:15Speaker 2: deal with your money because it's a stressful situation. If
- 24:19Speaker 2: your parents even divorced and you thought it was your
- 24:22Speaker 2: fault because you had to buy pants or buy clothes
- 24:25Speaker 2: or whatever it might be for you, you could be
- 24:27Speaker 2: having a whole belief in there that is literally blocking
- 24:31Speaker 2: your money. So we have to look at the mindset.
- 24:35Speaker 2: We have to see where it's at.
- 24:37Speaker 1: My mind was work hard, make money, and I definitely
- 24:41Speaker 1: adopted that mindset being stepping into a business.
- 24:44Speaker 2: Owner right off the bat in my early twenties. We
- 24:47Speaker 2: own Oh my gosh, I've owned so much stuff. So
- 24:51Speaker 2: and I still do love my job. Now, I definitely
- 24:54Speaker 2: change it to I love what I do, so I
- 24:56Speaker 2: don't feel like it's work. And I definitely have self
- 25:00Speaker 2: health care time. I definitely enjoy my time to solitude.
- 25:05Speaker 2: I meditate every morning, I have my healing program happening,
- 25:08Speaker 2: I exercise every day, I eat right. My health is
- 25:12Speaker 2: very important to me, and so it's very different. And
- 25:16Speaker 2: I can say that I have an amazing work ethic
- 25:18Speaker 2: because it means a lot to me. So we want
- 25:21Speaker 2: to see if that belief is still as the adult
- 25:25Speaker 2: person you are, or if it's the child belief. So
- 25:27Speaker 2: work hard, make money is the only way to make money.
- 25:30Speaker 2: I do not attest to that belief anymore. My belief
- 25:33Speaker 2: is now money is coming to me easily and effortlessly
- 25:37Speaker 2: because I'm loving my life and I'm putting joy out
- 25:40Speaker 2: there every day. So it's different beliefs. I hope that
- 25:44Speaker 2: makes sense. So we want to look at our beliefs
- 25:47Speaker 2: in childhood. Here's one little homework for you. I just
- 25:50Speaker 2: gave this to a new client the other day and
- 25:52Speaker 2: she found it very enlightening. Do the little meditation that
- 25:56Speaker 2: you walk down the hallway and you open up a door.
- 25:59Speaker 2: This is for me. If it doesn't work for you,
- 26:01Speaker 2: that's fine. But I open up a door at each
- 26:03Speaker 2: age and see if there's any beliefs in there around
- 26:05Speaker 2: money or my money relationship. You'll be surprised what you find.
- 26:10Speaker 2: I found one that's my chocolate chip, my chocolate chip
- 26:14Speaker 2: story that I share that my dad got so angry
- 26:16Speaker 2: with me and I realized that I needed to be perfect. Well,
- 26:19Speaker 2: that translated over to my perfectionism. And I'm a virgo,
- 26:24Speaker 2: so hello, compounding perfectionism there. And I needed to make
- 26:29Speaker 2: sure that I was perfect in everything. So I've always
- 26:32Speaker 2: had shame and blame around not making enough or enough
- 26:36Speaker 2: to someone that I knew that had more than I did. Right,
- 26:40Speaker 2: So I was always feeling less than around my money
- 26:43Speaker 2: until I realized, oh, I don't aspire to that belief.
- 26:46Speaker 2: I am perfectly, imperfect and loving every minute of it.
- 26:50Speaker 2: And I love the journey to acquire what we want
- 26:54Speaker 2: to acquire and live the lifestyle that we want to live.
- 26:57Speaker 2: And finding the joy now is just absolutely transformational.
- 27:03Speaker 1: It's amazing. Our second barrier to wealth is trust.
- 27:07Speaker 2: I know this doesn't seem right, but I promise you
- 27:11Speaker 2: it is because if we don't trust ourselves, we will
- 27:14Speaker 2: not make the right decisions.
- 27:16Speaker 1: Now.
- 27:16Speaker 2: I just spoke with a client prospect. I should say
- 27:19Speaker 2: she is amazing. She just fell in love with I
- 27:22Speaker 2: spent several hours with her, and she has not decided
- 27:25Speaker 2: to move forward or she just ghosted me.
- 27:27Speaker 1: Have you ever been ghosted? On dating apps? Clients ghost
- 27:30Speaker 1: us as well.
- 27:31Speaker 2: And I know that it's all because she doesn't trust herself,
- 27:35Speaker 2: So I do not hold it against her at all
- 27:37Speaker 2: by any means. I know that I can help her,
- 27:40Speaker 2: and I know that I can help her clear that
- 27:42Speaker 2: barrier of trust, because when we work on our foundation
- 27:46Speaker 2: with money and our relationship, we learn to trust ourselves.
- 27:49Speaker 2: We learn to love ourselves, We learn to love our
- 27:52Speaker 2: life and what's happening now, and if not, we change it.
- 27:55Speaker 2: But we love the journey.
- 27:57Speaker 1: So trust. Have you ever been betrayed?
- 27:59Speaker 2: Oh?
- 28:00Speaker 1: Shocker? Right, have you ever been lied to? I don't know.
- 28:04Speaker 2: Did our parents even tell us Undrews? Well, of course
- 28:06Speaker 2: they did. So our trust level, even though it sounds strange,
- 28:12Speaker 2: there's no easter bunny or whatever that literally translate to
- 28:17Speaker 2: trusting other people on doing what they're say they're going
- 28:20Speaker 2: to do. So when we have a trust issue, which obviously,
- 28:25Speaker 2: if you know my history, I have huge trust issues.
- 28:28Speaker 2: Definitely been betrayed by a lot of people in my past,
- 28:32Speaker 2: a lot of men as well and women. I could
- 28:35Speaker 2: say just maybe two women that I can think of
- 28:38Speaker 2: right now, the rest of them men, which does not matter.
- 28:41Speaker 2: It brings up the trust issue either way. Right, So
- 28:44Speaker 2: if we still have that inside of us, we are
- 28:47Speaker 2: not going to trust our own decisions, and then we're
- 28:50Speaker 2: going to critique our own decisions heavily, and so we
- 28:54Speaker 2: are going to shame ourselves, blame ourselves, and all of
- 28:57Speaker 2: that is keeping us away from our desired way wealth.
- 29:00Speaker 2: It's keeping us away from the abundance that we deserve
- 29:03Speaker 2: and desire. So we have to look inside, and you
- 29:06Speaker 2: don't have to go it alone. Definitely, grab a coach,
- 29:09Speaker 2: a therapist, someone that knows what it's like. And I
- 29:13Speaker 2: love Brene Brown with this right here, being vulnerable, right,
- 29:16Speaker 2: she did a lot of stuff on being vulnerable. We
- 29:18Speaker 2: don't want to bring somebody with us. It's going to
- 29:21Speaker 2: just throw sympathy at us. I was just talking to
- 29:23Speaker 2: this with ours, with my soul sisters. We don't want
- 29:25Speaker 2: to say, oh no, I feel so sorry for you,
- 29:27Speaker 2: I feel so bad for you that this happened to you.
- 29:30Speaker 2: That is not what I'm looking for. I am looking for. Yeah,
- 29:33Speaker 2: I could see how that would really piss you off.
- 29:36Speaker 1: I get that.
- 29:37Speaker 2: I can totally understand how you can feel betrayed with that.
- 29:42Speaker 2: That is the friend you want to grab and go
- 29:44Speaker 2: through this with. You don't need someone to commiserate with
- 29:47Speaker 2: you and take you down the negative Nelly road. We
- 29:49Speaker 2: do not need that. We just need someone to maybe
- 29:52Speaker 2: witness our pain, to validate that, yes, that was real
- 29:56Speaker 2: for you at that time, and now what do you
- 29:58Speaker 2: want to do with it? Where you want it to
- 29:59Speaker 2: go now? So trust is a huge situation. Number three.
- 30:04Speaker 2: The third barrier to wealth is the shame and the
- 30:07Speaker 2: blame that we put on ourselves, imposter syndrome that we
- 30:12Speaker 2: all think of that we should be better, we should
- 30:14Speaker 2: have more, which is why I can tell you people
- 30:17Speaker 2: don't reach out for help, which was my number one
- 30:20Speaker 2: tip was don't go it alone, ask for help. So
- 30:25Speaker 2: when we have shame and blame, that keeps us in
- 30:27Speaker 2: secret zone and we don't want to say, you know, okay,
- 30:31Speaker 2: i'm fifty now and yeah I don't have a whole lot,
- 30:35Speaker 2: or I got a divorce and lost everything, whatever it
- 30:38Speaker 2: might be, it's not our fault. We did not have
- 30:42Speaker 2: the foundation for feminine financial freedom when we were two
- 30:47Speaker 2: or three, or four or five or twenty or twenty
- 30:50Speaker 2: five or thirty five. We just didn't have the foundation
- 30:52Speaker 2: set correctly for us. So we are going to get
- 30:56Speaker 2: this stuff straight so that we can help younger people
- 31:00Speaker 2: up in the world to make sure that they're looking
- 31:02Speaker 2: at the relationship with money, not just the dollar signs,
- 31:06Speaker 2: because the F word is the most important thing is
- 31:09Speaker 2: how you feel about this. So we want to make
- 31:12Speaker 2: sure that we can release as much shame and blame
- 31:17Speaker 2: as possible. It can become toxic and it can actually
- 31:21Speaker 2: block us from a love relationship, from our children's relationship,
- 31:27Speaker 2: from our friendships, everything. It can block so much love
- 31:30Speaker 2: from coming in if we are putting up our barriers
- 31:34Speaker 2: because of old shame and blame. That's literally toxic. So
- 31:39Speaker 2: we need to look through our mindset and make sure
- 31:42Speaker 2: that we're not blaming ourselves or anything. We need to
- 31:45Speaker 2: look through our trust from way back when, and we
- 31:50Speaker 2: need to be educated. So our shame and blame comes
- 31:55Speaker 2: from not really educating ourselves on what's really out there now.
- 32:00Speaker 2: I have very different beliefs than a lot of other
- 32:02Speaker 2: financial advisors out there. I do not believe in wholeheartedly
- 32:06Speaker 2: fully funding a four oh one K because I believe
- 32:10Speaker 2: that I don't know what the taxes are going to
- 32:11Speaker 2: be twenty thirty years from now, and that bucket is
- 32:14Speaker 2: going to be one hundred percent text. So I would
- 32:17Speaker 2: much rather you get educated on you, your unique situation,
- 32:22Speaker 2: your life, your emotions, your feelings around money, and find
- 32:27Speaker 2: out what is the plan that's best for you instead
- 32:30Speaker 2: of listening to a lot of the other people that
- 32:33Speaker 2: are selling to the mass masses that one size fits
- 32:39Speaker 2: all dress never looks sexy on you, never looks great,
- 32:43Speaker 2: and never.
- 32:44Speaker 1: Makes you feel good.
- 32:46Speaker 2: So instead of one size fits all, we need to
- 32:49Speaker 2: find out what's right for you and you alone, and
- 32:52Speaker 2: then we will educate you on what you need for you.
- 32:56Speaker 2: Then guess what we get to forgive ourselves for all
- 32:59Speaker 2: that time that we beat ourselves up, or all the
- 33:02Speaker 2: time that we wasted by not taking care of our money,
- 33:05Speaker 2: ourselves and our feelings and our relationship with money.
- 33:08Speaker 1: It could be any of that.
- 33:10Speaker 2: So we want to make sure that we forgive ourselves.
- 33:14Speaker 1: I don't know if you've heard oponent.
- 33:15Speaker 2: Oh no, no, I probably didn't say that right, But
- 33:17Speaker 2: it's the Hawaiian forgiveness practice. Just YouTube it. It's amazing.
- 33:21Speaker 2: Say that to yourself every day and just breathe into
- 33:24Speaker 2: forgiving yourself or what you do not know because it's
- 33:26Speaker 2: not your fault. Here is one more thing that can hide.
- 33:32Speaker 2: This is actually kind of a little bit of a
- 33:34Speaker 2: barrier as well. Anger can hide your true emotions. Ah,
- 33:42Speaker 2: so we can go quick to anger immediately. I have
- 33:47Speaker 2: one trigger right now that I can actually two triggers
- 33:52Speaker 2: right now that can trigger me straight into anger. Now,
- 33:54Speaker 2: what's behind that anger I can tell you right now,
- 33:57Speaker 2: is I'm feeling less than or unworthy or I'm not
- 34:00Speaker 2: good enough. So when I feel that someone is when
- 34:06Speaker 2: someone is questioning my integrity or my expertise in my industry,
- 34:16Speaker 2: I just come in like a Mama Bear like, I
- 34:19Speaker 2: go straight to anger and it is really hiding my
- 34:23Speaker 2: core wound of feeling unworthy or feeling less than. So
- 34:28Speaker 2: when I get to anger, I know, oh, okay, it's good.
- 34:31Speaker 2: I'd rather be angry than sad. If you did the
- 34:33Speaker 2: Emotional Skal podcast, check out our last week's podcast Around
- 34:37Speaker 2: the Emotional Scale with Denise Carbone. That was amazing. So
- 34:40Speaker 2: anger is better than sadness or despair or depression. However,
- 34:44Speaker 2: it's still not addressing what's really happening. And what's really
- 34:48Speaker 2: happening is someone's feeling their feelings and I need to
- 34:53Speaker 2: address those feelings instead of getting anger angry. I need
- 34:56Speaker 2: to say, okay, I need to put away my feelings
- 34:58Speaker 2: of feeling less than.
- 35:00Speaker 1: Because I know I'm a mad ass at what I do.
- 35:02Speaker 2: I know I'm very good at what I do. I've
- 35:04Speaker 2: helped thousands of people. I have one hundred percent money
- 35:07Speaker 2: back guarantee which has never been evoked, so I know
- 35:10Speaker 2: that I'm very good at what I do. So that
- 35:12Speaker 2: little child, that little core wound, pops up when the
- 35:14Speaker 2: anger's there. It's like, okay, let's breathe into that anger.
- 35:18Speaker 2: Love the anger, but let's see what it's really hiding.
- 35:21Speaker 2: It's never what we think it is, y'all when we're
- 35:24Speaker 2: mad at something. This is another tip right down immediately
- 35:28Speaker 2: when you get angry, write down what you're mad at,
- 35:30Speaker 2: what you think you're mad at, and digest that over
- 35:33Speaker 2: the next couple days, and then find out what you're
- 35:35Speaker 2: really mad at. And if you can't do that alone,
- 35:38Speaker 2: I get it. I've had many coaches, love them, grab
- 35:41Speaker 2: a coach. So this is I'm showing a slide right
- 35:45Speaker 2: now of Stacy Missus Stacy Jackson Smith.
- 35:48Speaker 1: She is amazing and it's just sharing that when I've
- 35:53Speaker 1: helped her, she changed. She says.
- 35:55Speaker 2: Jennifer helped me change my relationship with money from drudgery
- 35:58Speaker 2: to fun. Getting organized with the week money date reduced
- 36:01Speaker 2: my stress, expanded my confidence, and empowered me to reach
- 36:04Speaker 2: new heights in my career. She has come so far
- 36:05Speaker 2: from now, So I just wanted to tell you that
- 36:08Speaker 2: it's not just you, right. We all feel this way
- 36:11Speaker 2: in one way or another. I can say that we can.
- 36:17Speaker 2: Some of you might think that you can do it
- 36:18Speaker 2: on your own, and you can. You possibly can. If
- 36:21Speaker 2: you know you can, you can, Like you have your
- 36:24Speaker 2: own path, I can tell you that that could take
- 36:26Speaker 2: a lot longer. Once I got my coaches and they
- 36:30Speaker 2: sped me up like that, Mayvoo was amazing. She helped
- 36:34Speaker 2: me clear a huge belief that I thought in the
- 36:37Speaker 2: back of my head that I caused my children's death
- 36:39Speaker 2: and that was horrible for me, and she helped me
- 36:42Speaker 2: clear that with our whole group, and I cleared it
- 36:45Speaker 2: and doubled my income that year, like it was amazing,
- 36:48Speaker 2: So grab a coach. Therapists are amazing as well. I'd
- 36:51Speaker 2: never be where I was where I am now without therapy.
- 36:54Speaker 2: I had to go to therapy to learn where things
- 36:57Speaker 2: were coming from, and then I had to go to
- 36:58Speaker 2: coaches to put it in my first in my windshield,
- 37:02Speaker 2: basically moving forward.
- 37:03Speaker 1: How it's going. So please don't try to do this
- 37:05Speaker 1: on your own. You definitely need to get support if
- 37:07Speaker 1: you have any dysfunction in childhood. Like me and pretty
- 37:10Speaker 1: much everybody I know, don't go it alone because it's
- 37:14Speaker 1: so much more fun when we have somebody to go
- 37:15Speaker 1: with it. So how do I know what steps to take? First?
- 37:21Speaker 1: I've given you so much information. Ah, let's take a breath.
- 37:26Speaker 1: How do I know? Well, we have to do several
- 37:30Speaker 1: things with starting with your goals and dreams right.
- 37:33Speaker 2: Number two, how do I know who to trust if
- 37:35Speaker 2: you have trust issues? So no wonder why we're confused
- 37:38Speaker 2: about finances, like it's crazy. Number three, how do I
- 37:42Speaker 2: make the correct decision for myself? That is a huge
- 37:46Speaker 2: question that people have because we don't trust ourselves yet.
- 37:50Speaker 2: And what should I do when life changes? Maybe I
- 37:53Speaker 2: have this great plan and that you have an amazing advisor,
- 37:57Speaker 2: but your life has changed, maybe divorce, maybe an inheritance.
- 38:01Speaker 2: I have a lot of people that have come into
- 38:03Speaker 2: a lot of money through COVID and they don't know
- 38:05Speaker 2: what to do. Number five question, how do I know
- 38:08Speaker 2: if I'm doing the right thing for me? So a
- 38:12Speaker 2: lot of people have these questions. You are not alone.
- 38:15Speaker 2: Number six, how do I know I'm not going to
- 38:18Speaker 2: outlive on my money? Like that's a drum roll, Like,
- 38:21Speaker 2: how do I know I'm not going to outlive my money?
- 38:24Speaker 2: That is the number one fear people have is they're
- 38:26Speaker 2: not saving enough. Here's another another testimonial from missus MJ
- 38:33Speaker 2: love her. I love working with Jennifer. It's so fun,
- 38:35Speaker 2: not only because she has a lot of expertise that
- 38:37Speaker 2: she brings to the table, but her personal experiences that
- 38:40Speaker 2: help support other aspects of your financial life as well.
- 38:42Speaker 2: If you're ready to take charge of your financial health
- 38:44Speaker 2: and amazing support, Jennifer's a perfect match.
- 38:46Speaker 1: I love MJ.
- 38:46Speaker 2: She's awesome, She's absolutely amazing. So ask yourself, what if
- 38:54Speaker 2: what if all this was possible? What if you had
- 38:58Speaker 2: the finance?
- 38:58Speaker 1: Found?
- 38:59Speaker 2: The finance is to have the lifestyle of a financially
- 39:04Speaker 2: free woman. How would that feel to be financially free?
- 39:07Speaker 2: So here's your three keys, which I've talked about earlier.
- 39:10Speaker 1: You need to have a team. We need to have
- 39:13Speaker 1: a team. Don't go it alone.
- 39:14Speaker 2: You have to have systems put in place automatically right
- 39:17Speaker 2: here in your team. A financial advisor, a tax person,
- 39:21Speaker 2: a money mindset coach, investment manager, financial educator, retirement planner,
- 39:26Speaker 2: insurance agent. Your system. You need to have a cash
- 39:29Speaker 2: flow system, a money timeline. You need to know where
- 39:35Speaker 2: your money's going and win. You need to have your
- 39:37Speaker 2: custom money blueprint. You need to have your money success system,
- 39:42Speaker 2: your cash flow system, your bucket strategy. All of this
- 39:45Speaker 2: I do in my Diamond Life programs. So I hope
- 39:48Speaker 2: you rewind this and listen to it again because it's
- 39:53Speaker 2: going to give you a lot of information. Here's the
- 39:56Speaker 2: third thing that's missing. Are you ready? The third thing
- 40:00Speaker 2: that's missing is you need a money healing. That is
- 40:04Speaker 2: what's missing. We have amazing financial advisors in this world.
- 40:08Speaker 2: You might even have one yourself, and nine times out
- 40:13Speaker 2: of ten, even like ninety nine million times out of
- 40:16Speaker 2: a billion, we literally are missing the healing portion of
- 40:21Speaker 2: your money. I think that's what how I come into
- 40:25Speaker 2: it and makes it very different. So we yes, we
- 40:28Speaker 2: definitely need a team. We definitely have the barriers to wealth.
- 40:30Speaker 2: We need systems, but we need to have that healing.
- 40:35Speaker 2: So we want to make sure that your healing includes
- 40:39Speaker 2: your money wounds. Maybe your family told you that you know,
- 40:45Speaker 2: you were the last kid and we didn't have any
- 40:48Speaker 2: money for you to go to college. Maybe maybe you
- 40:50Speaker 2: actually have a money trauma. I've had let go of
- 40:55Speaker 2: so many millions of dollars throughout my life because something
- 40:58Speaker 2: didn't feel right. That could absolutely be stuck in your
- 41:02Speaker 2: body as a trauma. Maybe you were divorced and lost everything,
- 41:06Speaker 2: or divorced and did not use your voice and spick
- 41:08Speaker 2: up for yourself and did not get what you really
- 41:11Speaker 2: should have received. So that's a trauma. Maybe you were
- 41:15Speaker 2: suffered from the two thousand and eight crisis and lost
- 41:18Speaker 2: a home, or like myself, a couple rentals like that
- 41:22Speaker 2: is a trauma. Right, Maybe you lost a business or
- 41:24Speaker 2: the business failed and you blame yourself.
- 41:27Speaker 1: So we need to address these just fears, money fears.
- 41:31Speaker 1: We need to address money fears. So what are you
- 41:34Speaker 1: afraid of? Like the last person that I just spoke to,
- 41:37Speaker 1: and she didn't say yes, she didn't even say no,
- 41:39Speaker 1: she wouldn't even come back on. And I'm pretty easy
- 41:42Speaker 1: to talk to, right, So I know that it's her
- 41:45Speaker 1: money fears that are holding you back. And I can
- 41:47Speaker 1: tell you that is the biggest thing that held me
- 41:50Speaker 1: back on that roller coaster forever with the fear of
- 41:54Speaker 1: that money trauma that I had. And once I cleared that,
- 41:58Speaker 1: oh my gosh, it's so exciting.
- 42:00Speaker 2: I love it. I love love, love life, I have joy.
- 42:04Speaker 2: Makes me feel really good to share my money with
- 42:06Speaker 2: people that I truly, truly adore and want to aid
- 42:11Speaker 2: to their lifestyle. Like I love to give my coaches
- 42:14Speaker 2: money because it's like, oh my gosh, now you get
- 42:17Speaker 2: to go on a vacation or go do something, or
- 42:19Speaker 2: my money's helping you, right, And I have my clients,
- 42:23Speaker 2: I tell them what I'm doing with their money. I
- 42:25Speaker 2: had a dental issue last year and I just had
- 42:28Speaker 2: two more teeth done again thousands of dollars, And I
- 42:30Speaker 2: tell them, oh, you just bought my first for front teeth,
- 42:33Speaker 2: and like, oh, I'm so glad I can help them, Like, yeah,
- 42:35Speaker 2: you're helping me be healthy. Why not talk about money
- 42:39Speaker 2: like it's real? We all do it, so why don't
- 42:42Speaker 2: we spend it where we want to spend it. Money
- 42:45Speaker 2: insecurities is another big thing that we need to address
- 42:49Speaker 2: in our money healing because we're we if we don't know,
- 42:53Speaker 2: if we're not educated, and most of us did not
- 42:55Speaker 2: have our grandpas or our dads take us aside and
- 42:58Speaker 2: say hey, let's buy the stock when you're fine five
- 43:00Speaker 2: or ten like the men did. Boys have been dealing
- 43:03Speaker 2: with money and have a different mindset around money than
- 43:06Speaker 2: we do. We attribute everything to the relationship, and so
- 43:11Speaker 2: everything what we have with any relationship at all shows
- 43:14Speaker 2: up in our relationship with money. So our insecurities show
- 43:17Speaker 2: that we need to heal those insecurities around our money
- 43:21Speaker 2: for sure. Number five our money story. So let's look
- 43:26Speaker 2: back and see what your money story's been. But now
- 43:29Speaker 2: we're going to create our new money story. We're going
- 43:32Speaker 2: to fall in love with money. I have a class,
- 43:35Speaker 2: it's called Financial Foreplay. I love it like I want
- 43:38Speaker 2: you to fall in love with money and have an
- 43:40Speaker 2: amazing relationship with money like I do.
- 43:42Speaker 1: It's so fun. I love it now. Is it always
- 43:45Speaker 1: one hundred percent perfect?
- 43:46Speaker 2: Of course?
- 43:46Speaker 1: Not? Nothing is it? Nothing is? And that's okay.
- 43:51Speaker 2: Like even when I'm dipping down into not the best
- 43:54Speaker 2: feelings around my finances or anything or anyone, because it
- 43:58Speaker 2: all is related, I'm like, Okay, great, on the other
- 44:01Speaker 2: side of this, I'm going to learn so much. It's
- 44:04Speaker 2: going to feel so good just on the other side
- 44:07Speaker 2: of this.
- 44:07Speaker 1: So I actually don't get so.
- 44:10Speaker 2: Upset now when I have the contrast, as Abraham Hicks says,
- 44:13Speaker 2: or the negativity or the dip of the depression or
- 44:16Speaker 2: sadness or whatever, because I know I'm going to pop
- 44:19Speaker 2: out of it and on the other side it's going
- 44:21Speaker 2: to be something new and inspiring and amazing.
- 44:24Speaker 1: So your money.
- 44:25Speaker 2: Story is very, very important, and these are the things
- 44:29Speaker 2: that are missing. And other programs or other financial advisors
- 44:32Speaker 2: or anybody talking about money. It's the psychology of money
- 44:36Speaker 2: that's so important. We must address it the F word,
- 44:39Speaker 2: the foundation. How do you feel about your financial freedom?
- 44:45Speaker 2: We want to be able to get that now. So
- 44:47Speaker 2: everybody play a little game with me. Right now, let's
- 44:49Speaker 2: see we have five minutes left, Okay, so we're going
- 44:54Speaker 2: to think of something that brings us so much joy
- 44:57Speaker 2: that it could be your cat, your spouse, laying on
- 45:00Speaker 2: the beach, like right now, I'm going to Cabo in
- 45:03Speaker 2: a couple months, so exciting that it's a gift, a
- 45:06Speaker 2: gift from some friends of mine, and it's for my birthday,
- 45:10Speaker 2: so I'm so excited. I'm picturing lying on the beach
- 45:13Speaker 2: in an amazing change lounge which has patting because it's
- 45:18Speaker 2: you know, special, and I hear the ocean, the sun's
- 45:22Speaker 2: hitting my face, I have an amazing Pina colada next
- 45:26Speaker 2: to me, or something exciting that, Like if you can
- 45:29Speaker 2: picture anything that brings you joy right now, I literally
- 45:32Speaker 2: have joy in my heart right now. It feels so good.
- 45:35Speaker 2: So now I'm going to attribute that to my savings
- 45:38Speaker 2: every month, because I'm putting away a little bit every
- 45:41Speaker 2: month to be able to spend in Cabo. So that
- 45:45Speaker 2: makes me excited to save that money to do that.
- 45:48Speaker 2: The feeling of financial freedom is free, y'all.
- 45:53Speaker 1: You can have the feeling right now, and what we
- 45:55Speaker 1: put out we get back. So the more I put
- 45:59Speaker 1: out the feeling of joy and the feeling of happiness,
- 46:02Speaker 1: the more experiences and opportunities they are going to come
- 46:05Speaker 1: my way to experience more joy and freedom. It's so amazing.
- 46:10Speaker 2: I promise you what you focus on persists, So don't
- 46:13Speaker 2: forget about the psychology of money. Oh here's miss Denise Carbone,
- 46:17Speaker 2: Love Love Lover. Before working with Jennifer, I would be
- 46:20Speaker 2: quite at a family get together whenever the topic turn of
- 46:22Speaker 2: finances are investing. I felt stupid around my brothers and
- 46:26Speaker 2: I had nothing to really contribute because I was just
- 46:28Speaker 2: a girl. I never got the same education that they
- 46:30Speaker 2: did about important topics. Jennifer helped me educate, and the
- 46:34Speaker 2: way it made sense. She explains things in terms how
- 46:37Speaker 2: our decisions affect us emotionally and how our emotions affect
- 46:40Speaker 2: our decisions, which is a woman I appreciate. I now
- 46:43Speaker 2: confidently speak up whenever the topic relates to money and wealth.
- 46:46Speaker 2: My brother's even come to me for advice, and I
- 46:48Speaker 2: feel confident managing my money and love watching my wealth
- 46:51Speaker 2: accounts grow. Denise Carbone literally is on this podcast with
- 46:55Speaker 2: My Soul Sister series Check that out. And she just
