- 1:25Speaker 1: you can all vacation together, you can all retire together,
- 1:29Speaker 1: you can all have a really good time together, instead
- 1:31Speaker 1: of you have that one person that just can't afford
- 1:33Speaker 1: to do certain things that you want to be able
- 1:35Speaker 1: to do. We want to make sure that we are
- 1:36Speaker 1: all in abundance and joining life dramatically. We want to
- 1:41Speaker 1: be able to show up who we are authentically and
- 1:43Speaker 1: have a blast.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:45Speaker 1: Okay, today we are going to dive into money fear.
- 1:49Speaker 1: I know none of you have money fear at all.
- 1:52Speaker 1: I know you've never experienced it. Midlife transitions and the
- 1:57Speaker 1: myth of feeling behind. Most ladies come in to my practice.
- 2:03Speaker 1: I should say almost everyone comes in and says, I
- 2:06Speaker 1: thought i'd be in a different place than I am
- 2:08Speaker 1: right now. So women's lives are complicated. You might still
- 2:12Speaker 1: be married, you might be married for the second or
- 2:14Speaker 1: third time. You might have experienced divorce or even widowhood,
- 2:19Speaker 1: and now you're in a completely different area of life
- 2:21Speaker 1: than you've ever been before. Women have relationships with ourselves,
- 2:25Speaker 1: and we have relationships with money. We're built around relationships.
- 2:30Speaker 1: So when we suffer something a trauma or a big
- 2:34Speaker 1: transition in our lives, it does affect our money. Because
- 2:38Speaker 1: how we feel about one thing is how we feel
- 2:40Speaker 1: about everything. We are not the best at compartmentalizing what's happening,
- 2:45Speaker 1: so we take things on, which means we blame ourselves.
- 2:48Speaker 1: We take shame on and it's so natural for us.
- 2:52Speaker 1: We think that that's the way it is, and it's not.
- 2:54Speaker 1: We do not have to do that. We absolutely can
- 2:57Speaker 1: separate experiences to feelings about the experience. So you might
- 3:02Speaker 1: have even had shifts in your career. Back in the day,
- 3:05Speaker 1: we'd go to school, we'd get a degree, we'd get
- 3:08Speaker 1: a job, we'd be there forever. Now we're changing nine
- 3:11Speaker 1: ten times a year, ten times a lifetime. We might
- 3:15Speaker 1: have thought we were going to retire early and we're not.
- 3:18Speaker 1: We might still be working. Children leaving home. I don't
- 3:22Speaker 1: think any of us understand what that really feels like.
- 3:25Speaker 1: First of all, to have a child, until you have
- 3:27Speaker 1: a child, right, and then two children or more. Then
- 3:32Speaker 1: we pour ourselves into raising these little humans and doing
- 3:37Speaker 1: the best that we all can. And that is our priority,
- 3:40Speaker 1: that is our focus, that is our joy, that is
- 3:42Speaker 1: our sorrow, that is our everything. And then they're out.
- 3:46Speaker 1: They say, okay, I'm out, going to college, moving out,
- 3:49Speaker 1: going to trade school, shacking up, whatever they decide to do.
- 3:53Speaker 1: They're gone, and we are left with this big empty
- 3:56Speaker 1: space that we had this huge priority for the last
- 4:01Speaker 1: twenty years. Now we have to fulfill that. How do
- 4:05Speaker 1: we do that? That is a huge transition. It's easier
- 4:09Speaker 1: for some and not so easy for others. Aging parents.
- 4:12Speaker 1: My mom's ninety three and she's hilarious and I'm helping
- 4:18Speaker 1: care for her. I do have our assisted living, thank goodness.
- 4:21Speaker 1: I'd be a horrible caregiver, I'm telling you. And that
- 4:25Speaker 1: is a transition for us. That is a financial transition.
- 4:29Speaker 1: It could be for people. It could be just tugging
- 4:32Speaker 1: on my heart, my time, my time spent, I still have,
- 4:37Speaker 1: you know, my kids, my mom. You know. So a
- 4:40Speaker 1: lot of things happen that transition in our life. Wealth changes.
- 4:47Speaker 1: We could have had something happen. We could have had
- 4:49Speaker 1: an illness. I had a spill and my back is
- 4:54Speaker 1: messed up. Sometimes I can still do everything. It's wonderful.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Love my chiropractor, love all my my health team, It's amazing. However,
- 5:03Speaker 1: life's changed with that. I can't wear high heels right now.
- 5:06Speaker 1: It's driving me crazy. I'm not getting rid of my pumps.
- 5:08Speaker 1: I'm not get written rid of my high heels yet.
- 5:11Speaker 1: I'm still trying to heal from all this so that
- 5:12Speaker 1: I can still wear those one day. Why do I
- 5:14Speaker 1: want to wear those? That's a whole nother show, y'all,
- 5:16Speaker 1: because that's my vanity for sure. But we'll talk about
- 5:19Speaker 1: that on another episode. We want to also recognize that
- 5:24Speaker 1: sometimes we just recognize realize ourselves. I am not who
- 5:29Speaker 1: I used to be. That could be at any age
- 5:32Speaker 1: of our life. It could be midlife, it could be
- 5:34Speaker 1: older's fifty sixties, it could be twenties, thirties, doesn't matter.
- 5:37Speaker 1: We just realized that we are not who we used
- 5:40Speaker 1: to be and who are we now, which also triggers
- 5:45Speaker 1: our brain to say, okay, who are we becoming? Because
- 5:48Speaker 1: now we realize that we thought we knew the way
- 5:50Speaker 1: everything was going to go, and it's not happening that way.
- 5:53Speaker 1: We have to bounce back, enjoy our lives still becoming
- 5:57Speaker 1: who we're going to become. I mean, I still say
- 6:00Speaker 1: at sixty two, I can't wait who I to know,
- 6:02Speaker 1: who I'm going to grow up and be like we're
- 6:04Speaker 1: still just never ending right. The space in between transitions
- 6:10Speaker 1: can be very uncomfortable because we usually like to know
- 6:14Speaker 1: what's happening, unless you're one of those wonderful people like
- 6:17Speaker 1: my mom, Miss Pollyanna, always happy, go lucky, always looking
- 6:21Speaker 1: at the bright side of things, which is probably why
- 6:23Speaker 1: she's ninety three and happy still for all others of us,
- 6:27Speaker 1: who I want to know what's happening. I want to
- 6:29Speaker 1: know if A plus B equal C. I want to
- 6:33Speaker 1: know what's A, what's B so that if I want
- 6:35Speaker 1: to if I want C or not. Well, that isn't
- 6:38Speaker 1: always the way it is, right, we can just share
- 6:40Speaker 1: with ourselves I'm in transition, and then we start either
- 6:45Speaker 1: accepting that or blaming, like why am I in transition?
- 6:49Speaker 1: What did I do wrong? Why? Why am I in
- 6:51Speaker 1: this position? Why am I feeling the way I'm feeling.
- 6:54Speaker 1: I didn't plan well enough. I should have not had
- 6:57Speaker 1: the conversations the way I did. I should have shown
- 7:00Speaker 1: up earlier. I shouldn't have married that guy. I shouldn't
- 7:03Speaker 1: have gotten that job, I shouldn't have spent that money,
- 7:05Speaker 1: I shouldn't have bought that house, whatever it might be.
- 7:09Speaker 1: We start to blame ourselves and that doesn't get us
- 7:12Speaker 1: anywhere at all. Anybody can relate to blame right like, ugh,
- 7:16Speaker 1: it's not helpful. So let's reframe all of that past negativity.
- 7:23Speaker 1: So here's your homework. You're gonna get a piece of
- 7:25Speaker 1: paper and you're gonna write a big capital T, and
- 7:27Speaker 1: on the left side of it, you're gonna put the
- 7:29Speaker 1: negative thought that first pops up. I like to put
- 7:32Speaker 1: this statement on top, I deserve to be wealthy. That
- 7:36Speaker 1: hits people either really good or really bad sometimes. So
- 7:39Speaker 1: when we write down I deserve to be wealthy on
- 7:41Speaker 1: the left side, I want you to write down the
- 7:44Speaker 1: thoughts that pop up first. Deserve to be wealthy? What
- 7:47Speaker 1: is wealth? This is like my first thought, deserve What
- 7:51Speaker 1: did deserve mean? And no, I don't deserve to be wealthy,
- 7:57Speaker 1: or I'm not smart enough, or I'm single now, or
- 8:02Speaker 1: whatever thought comes up for you on the left hand side.
- 8:05Speaker 1: And then on the right hand side we're going to
- 8:07Speaker 1: transition that thought, uh, the one no, I don't I
- 8:10Speaker 1: am on my way to feeling like I deserve to
- 8:14Speaker 1: be wealthy. We have to say the words that our
- 8:18Speaker 1: brain will accept. We cannot say I am wealthy when
- 8:20Speaker 1: we know we are not wealthy or we don't feel wealthy, right,
- 8:24Speaker 1: So we have to say the words that our brain
- 8:27Speaker 1: is going to go, Yeah, okay, I can deal with that.
- 8:29Speaker 1: That's true, I am not wealthy. Well, I'm on my way.
- 8:34Speaker 1: What is wealth? What is wealth? To our brain? Our
- 8:37Speaker 1: wealth is an amount of zeros. A wealth is not
- 8:40Speaker 1: having to set my alarm tomorrow. Wealth is feeling abundant.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Wealth is being able to spend money without worrying about
- 8:49Speaker 1: my bank account, whatever it is. Put all the positive
- 8:52Speaker 1: things on the right hand side. So we're going to
- 8:54Speaker 1: transform or reframe those negative thoughts into positive thoughts. And
- 9:00Speaker 1: we're going to recalibrate the word transition if that's coming.
- 9:05Speaker 1: If that brings a negative connotation to you, reframe that
- 9:08Speaker 1: transition might be just saying, hey, my new exciting life, right,
- 9:12Speaker 1: my new exciting experience. And excitement and stress are very
- 9:17Speaker 1: close on the feelings of our body and how we
- 9:20Speaker 1: feel that. So if we can switch stress around to excitement,
- 9:24Speaker 1: because that gives us a positive connotation. We want to
- 9:26Speaker 1: do that all the time. So when we start to
- 9:29Speaker 1: feel behind, and when we start to feel ashamed like
- 9:34Speaker 1: we should be in a different place, we're behind. Oh
- 9:40Speaker 1: here's a big one. Blame. I got screwed in my divorce.
- 9:44Speaker 1: About that. I got screwed at my last job. And
- 9:48Speaker 1: some people do get screwed. I'm not saying that that's
- 9:52Speaker 1: not a thing. Some people get lose money in scams
- 9:56Speaker 1: right now. I know a client actually a friend of mine,
- 10:00Speaker 1: and her mom answered the phone and got one of
- 10:03Speaker 1: those scams if they were trying to get their grandson
- 10:05Speaker 1: out of jail or something, and she lost a lot
- 10:07Speaker 1: of money. So some people do get scammed around things.
- 10:11Speaker 1: I'm not saying these things are not real. I'm just
- 10:13Speaker 1: saying that's not where we want to focus. We want
- 10:15Speaker 1: to focus on the next best step. And here is
- 10:19Speaker 1: your permission to not know everything right now. How do
- 10:23Speaker 1: you love that you're deep in transition or you know
- 10:26Speaker 1: what's coming up. You've had a lot of life behind you,
- 10:30Speaker 1: you got life in front of you, and you're not
- 10:33Speaker 1: sure where to go. But I want you to know
- 10:35Speaker 1: that it's okay to be where you're at right this minute.
- 10:38Speaker 1: It is the perfect place for you to be right now.
- 10:41Speaker 1: It is okay, It's absolutely okay. No matter what happened
- 10:46Speaker 1: in the past, you can change tomorrow by looking at
- 10:49Speaker 1: today and feeling differently about today. It is about the
- 10:52Speaker 1: f word, y'all. It's about how you feel. It's literally
- 10:56Speaker 1: about how you feel. It's not about the zeros, It's
- 10:59Speaker 1: not about what happened in the past. It's about how
- 11:01Speaker 1: you feel about today, which is why more homework. Write
- 11:05Speaker 1: one hundred things that you love. I want you in
- 11:08Speaker 1: the loving space. When you do all your money dates
- 11:10Speaker 1: and you do all your money work, write another list
- 11:13Speaker 1: of all your amazing skills and attributes, accomplishments, anything that's
- 11:18Speaker 1: great about you. Write it down. Some people can think
- 11:21Speaker 1: of five things, some people can think of fifty things,
- 11:24Speaker 1: whatever it is. I want you to look at those
- 11:25Speaker 1: lists every day before your feet hit the floor. I
- 11:28Speaker 1: promise you you will have a different day if you
- 11:30Speaker 1: do that simple thing, because then you're going to be
- 11:33Speaker 1: coming from love and not fear. Our brain is either
- 11:35Speaker 1: in love or fear, So if we're fear of money,
- 11:38Speaker 1: I want you to be in love with money. I
- 11:40Speaker 1: want you to have a good relationship with money, But
- 11:43Speaker 1: we have to show up. If we want money to
- 11:45Speaker 1: love us, we have to love money. So how are
- 11:48Speaker 1: we going to do that. We're going to show up
- 11:49Speaker 1: like we're going to be dating money. We want to
- 11:51Speaker 1: show up as our best self, which means we're going
- 11:53Speaker 1: to put time into it. Set aside thirty minutes a
- 11:56Speaker 1: week for your money date wherever you want to do it.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Friday night, Sunday night, during the week, but you want
- 12:00Speaker 1: to put on your favorite music. Your favorite can't like
- 12:02Speaker 1: I write my I light my candles, I get my
- 12:05Speaker 1: comfy clothes. I want to show up for my money date.
- 12:08Speaker 1: All my spreadsheets are pink and purple, my favorite colors.
- 12:11Speaker 1: All of my mail. I bring my mail in and
- 12:16Speaker 1: I put it on my really cute plate that I love,
- 12:18Speaker 1: so that I attach good feelings with my bills. A
- 12:22Speaker 1: lot of stuff is electronic, right, so I want to
- 12:24Speaker 1: make sure I love my space around me. I love
- 12:27Speaker 1: my cushion thing that I'm standing on. I love my
- 12:30Speaker 1: little pink microphone, right. I want to be in that
- 12:33Speaker 1: loving space when I'm handling my money and I'm looking
- 12:37Speaker 1: at my numbers. I want to make sure that I'm
- 12:40Speaker 1: feeling really good about all that. So it's about the
- 12:43Speaker 1: process and feeling good about the process. It's about the
- 12:47Speaker 1: F word. We want to make sure that we kick
- 12:51Speaker 1: out those old beliefs of I'm feeling behind into hey,
- 12:54Speaker 1: I am in the process and I'm showing up now.
- 12:58Speaker 1: Financial readiness versus emotional fear, we're either in one or
- 13:02Speaker 1: the other. Right we feel really financially ready, maybe when
- 13:06Speaker 1: we get a windfall, or if we didn't spend too
- 13:08Speaker 1: much money this month, or you meet with your advisor
- 13:11Speaker 1: and you have a good financial plan. You know exactly
- 13:13Speaker 1: what you're doing. And even if you feel really really
- 13:17Speaker 1: good and you have a few million dollars in your set,
- 13:20Speaker 1: you're retired. Even you might even retired early. That was
- 13:22Speaker 1: my specialty for a while as I was retiring women early,
- 13:26Speaker 1: because it's not about the zeros, it's about what your
- 13:29Speaker 1: lifestyle is going to be about. So it was easy
- 13:32Speaker 1: to do meeting with people and getting to know them
- 13:34Speaker 1: and saying, hey, this is how we can make this
- 13:35Speaker 1: happen very very very very fun, Like I love those
- 13:38Speaker 1: meetings are so fun and we can still feel scarcity
- 13:42Speaker 1: mode inside of us because it's about the emotional fear
- 13:44Speaker 1: around our money. It's not about the zeros in the bank.
- 13:47Speaker 1: I can have multimillionaires still not wanting to spend their money.
- 13:51Speaker 1: So we have to look at our relationship. We want
- 13:54Speaker 1: to look at our foundation around money. We want to
- 13:57Speaker 1: look at how we were taught solhood. What was the
- 14:00Speaker 1: theme around money? Like my theme in my household was
- 14:04Speaker 1: work hard, make money. My parents owned a business. We
- 14:06Speaker 1: work seven days a week. Those work hard, make money.
- 14:08Speaker 1: That was the theme. And you might not have had
- 14:12Speaker 1: a good foundation around it. So we want to create
- 14:14Speaker 1: that now. So here's more homework. Y'all write a letter
- 14:19Speaker 1: to Money. Yes, write a letter to Money. Dear Money,
- 14:24Speaker 1: I absolutely love you when you're here, and I fear
- 14:27Speaker 1: you when you are not here, and I feel really
- 14:30Speaker 1: bad about myself when I don't do a good job
- 14:34Speaker 1: respecting you and saving you and wanting you around for
- 14:38Speaker 1: the future. It could be an angry letter. It could
- 14:41Speaker 1: be I hate you Money because you don't bring all
- 14:44Speaker 1: your friends over. I'm really worried that I'm not going
- 14:48Speaker 1: to have enough of you, and I'm going to outlive you.
- 14:51Speaker 1: Whatever it is, get it out, get it out, get
- 14:54Speaker 1: it out on paper. Write that letter to Money. I
- 14:57Speaker 1: promise you it's going to be enlightening to you. You need
- 15:01Speaker 1: to see where your beliefs are. You need to see
- 15:03Speaker 1: what's holding you back. I want you to know that
- 15:06Speaker 1: you always have options. No matter what, you always have options.
- 15:10Speaker 1: Sometimes we feel really panicked around money, even though we
- 15:13Speaker 1: have it and we know what's happening, we can still
- 15:16Speaker 1: feel panicked. And why is that? We feel panicked because
- 15:19Speaker 1: we have uncertainty. Oh my goodness. If our world has
- 15:23Speaker 1: taught us anything in these last several years, it's uncertainty.
- 15:26Speaker 1: We have no idea what's going to happen. We feel
- 15:29Speaker 1: out of control again, Miss Virgo, Miss type A. Out
- 15:33Speaker 1: of control is not a good space that I love.
- 15:36Speaker 1: So feeling out of control is scary past experiences. If
- 15:41Speaker 1: anybody's been betrayed, have you all been betrayed? I literally,
- 15:44Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. So I had a manager that was
- 15:47Speaker 1: running my company years and years and years ago, and
- 15:51Speaker 1: I was selling my suburban to her and I was
- 15:55Speaker 1: going to take it out of her paycheck, her payment
- 15:57Speaker 1: for it. And so she came over and I had
- 16:01Speaker 1: to sign on the pink slip and I was in
- 16:02Speaker 1: a real big hurry. I was on the phone. I
- 16:06Speaker 1: just grabbed the pink somehow I signed on the wrong
- 16:10Speaker 1: side of the pink slip. So instead of signing as
- 16:13Speaker 1: a lean holder, I just signed that I sold it.
- 16:16Speaker 1: She drove from my house with that pink slip and
- 16:20Speaker 1: sold it to somebody else for ten grand and left
- 16:23Speaker 1: the state. Oh how stupid do you think I felt
- 16:26Speaker 1: about myself? Oh my gosh, I was so beating myself
- 16:30Speaker 1: up for so long. So then what do we do?
- 16:32Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. I questioned all my thoughts. I questioned
- 16:35Speaker 1: all my actions and decisions that I was making around money,
- 16:40Speaker 1: around everything I was running my company at that time.
- 16:42Speaker 1: How you know, Oh, I was just questioning everything. So
- 16:45Speaker 1: past experiences make a big difference in today's decisions around money.
- 16:50Speaker 1: So yes, you get to look at your past experiences.
- 16:53Speaker 1: We need to get rid of those feelings around trauma
- 16:58Speaker 1: or past betraying, because even if it didn't have anything
- 17:02Speaker 1: to do with money, we burring that into our money relationship.
- 17:06Speaker 1: The belief that there's no room for mistakes anymore, Like
- 17:09Speaker 1: I'm never going to make another mistake again. Guess what,
- 17:12Speaker 1: That's so not accurate. We are going to make mistakes
- 17:15Speaker 1: all the time. That's what life's about. That's just the
- 17:17Speaker 1: way it is, and it's okay. We are going to
- 17:19Speaker 1: make mistakes. So take that thought out and say, okay,
- 17:23Speaker 1: I am in a wonderful relationship with my money right now.
- 17:27Speaker 1: I'm learning more, I'm respecting more. It's respecting me more,
- 17:31Speaker 1: it's coming around more. I'm going to have fun with
- 17:34Speaker 1: my money. I have all my clients when we do
- 17:37Speaker 1: our cash flow, we have a line for fun. It
- 17:40Speaker 1: might be a small amount of money. In the beginning.
- 17:43Speaker 1: In the beginning years ago, there was an app that
- 17:46Speaker 1: you could round up, so if you spend nine dollars
- 17:48Speaker 1: and fifty cents, it would round up to ten dollars
- 17:50Speaker 1: and the fifty cents would go into this little side bucket.
- 17:55Speaker 1: And then they were required to spend that side bucket
- 17:59Speaker 1: every month on something that was completely fun, just happy
- 18:03Speaker 1: and fun. And the thought is, I want you to
- 18:06Speaker 1: plan that for three days. So now you're tricking your
- 18:09Speaker 1: brain to thinking that you're wealthy because you have extra
- 18:12Speaker 1: money to spend, and it has to be on something
- 18:15Speaker 1: I don't want to say necessarily frivolous, but fun. So
- 18:18Speaker 1: when I did anything, I have my clients do, I've
- 18:20Speaker 1: done myself. So I was a single mom and for me,
- 18:24Speaker 1: to go to dinner and have a glass of wine
- 18:25Speaker 1: and to sit at a nice dinner was not happening
- 18:29Speaker 1: to me. It was just like that was you know,
- 18:31Speaker 1: that was like you know, birthdays or celebrations or something,
- 18:35Speaker 1: not just an everyday occurrence. So what I did was
- 18:38Speaker 1: I did do that. So I'm sitting around at a
- 18:40Speaker 1: fine dining restaurant amazing, and I'd have a nice glass
- 18:44Speaker 1: of wine, look around, feel the energy from the people
- 18:49Speaker 1: there because they're all happy, and they're all having a
- 18:51Speaker 1: good time in most right and they're having a nice dinner.
- 18:54Speaker 1: That made me feel abundant right there. That made me
- 18:57Speaker 1: feel worthy, That made me feel like I did something
- 19:01Speaker 1: really good with my money, and alls I did was
- 19:03Speaker 1: save roundup change in an app for the month when
- 19:06Speaker 1: I was spending money. So there's lots of tips and
- 19:09Speaker 1: tricks that we can do to trick our brain into
- 19:11Speaker 1: letting go of the past, stepping into who we are
- 19:14Speaker 1: and creating who we want to become in the future.
- 19:18Speaker 1: And we're always going to be coming, be becoming no
- 19:21Speaker 1: matter how old we are. I mean, it's just going
- 19:23Speaker 1: to be consistent. I know, we hit this midlife and
- 19:27Speaker 1: we feel like things are completely different now, We're never
- 19:30Speaker 1: going to get another chance. We're totally behind, you know,
- 19:33Speaker 1: We're almost done working and we have to be in
- 19:36Speaker 1: so many so much. We have to have so many zeros,
- 19:40Speaker 1: we have to be in a certain place with our life.
