In this episode, we dive into the concept of the scarcity mindset with our in-house guest expert, Joyce from The Conscious Leadership Group. Joyce explains how a scarcity mindset impacts both personal and professional lives, often driven by three toxic fears that manifest in our behaviors and decisions. We explore the pervasive belief that "more is better" and its detrimental consequences on business and personal development. Joyce provides insightful strategies to shift from the belief that "there is not enough" to cultivating a mindset of sufficiency.

We also discuss how sufficiency is not an amount but an experience, and Joyce shares practical ways to cultivate this experience in our lives. Addressing common misconceptions about sufficiency, Joyce reveals how perspective shapes our experience of abundance or lack, particularly regarding time and money. She introduces the three truths of sufficiency, guiding individuals toward a more abundant mindset.
