What would it take, for you to feel truly SAFE?

It’s one of the questions we must ask ourselves, when facing personal and global uncertainty.

It’s an emotional question. A somatic question. And a money question.

In my Art of Money community, we have members from all points along the earning spectrum — from self-described “under-earners” to people earning well over six figures per year.

And you know what I’ve learned?

Feeling safe has nothing to do with money. And everything. (Just not in the way you might think.)

I always smile a little when someone I’m interviewing says,

“Oh, Bari … I can’t believe I’m sharing this with you!”

Truth? It happens pretty often. Not because I have some kinda sorcery. And I always make sure my interviewees are comfortable with sharing what we’ve recorded, afterwards.

This is the magic of creating a safe space to get real, get vulnerable, and get brave about money.

Because the truth is, we all deal with money. We all have some sort of shame about it, at least at some point in our lives. Most of us have never been taught how to manage it (let alone our emotions around it). And (here’s the kicker)...

When we get brave and get honest about money with each other...healing happens.

In today’s Money Memoir (our second to last), I’m talking to Jennifer Lee.

Many of you know her from her Right Brain Business Plan (for creative entrepreneurs). But you’ve never heard her quite like this. Because this is the magic of a safe, un-shaming space to talk about money — and all it touches.

Maketa is one of my favorite people — and I know you’ll see why, after listening to this Money Memoir with him.

Maketa and his wife had a money “wake-up call” a few years ago. (Or, as I like to call it, a “money initiation.”)

After what they thought was a prosperous year, they got their tax bill. (Dunh, dunh, dunh.) They had no idea they owed so much — and it wiped out their entire savings account, overnight.

Sometimes, our biggest “failures” … open the most joyful doors.

Maketa and his beautiful wife harnessed this hardship. They realized they needed to learn more about money. And it had to go deeper than numbers. All the way down into gender roles, their individual life stories, their definitions of success, and on and on.

What happens when you mix a middle class upbringing (with all of its paradoxes and subtle guilt), a contentious divorce, and a remarkably resilient, deep-thinking woman? You get …

An amazing journey into greater self-worth … far beyond the bank account.

In this raw and uplifting Money Memoir, Nancy opens up about her personal journey. We cover money, divorce, her Jewish heritage, and most importantly: how she claimed her sense of value.

Most of us don’t talk about money, except with our closest friends. But we ALL have money stories. Tough times we survived. Triumphs and gifts. Practical wisdom and soul-deep insights. And when we share our money stories with one another, openly and lovingly? Well, magic happens. We un-shame. We spread confidence and peace of mind and a whole lotta love. Honesty is just the beginning … Please curl up with a cuppa and enjoy this special, intimate interview series: Money Memoirs.

When I dreamed up this Money Memoirs series, I knew I wanted to include Jacquette Timmons.

Not only is Jacquette one of our favorite Guest Teachers in The Art of Money, she’s got a rich, multi-layered understanding of money.

As a Financial Behaviorist, Jacquette helps people go beneath the dollars and cents — straight to the underlying behaviors and beliefs creating their financial success (or keeping them from it).

Get ready to bust out your superhero cape. This mini-class might have you flying.

I recently asked my community of Art of Money members what their all-time favorite pieces of content I’d ever created were. The superclip you’re about to hear was one hands-down winner.

In this superclip, I talk to three powerhouse money guides about what it really takes to earn more money — or, as two of them put it, “overcome under-earning.” And it’s all woven together with helpful commentary and insights from my dear hubby, Forest.

For many, earning more money is a tough, multi-layered nut to crack.

As you’ll hear in this piece, that’s because it takes more than practical strategies. We also have to turn within and do some emotional and identity work, too.

You get honest with your honey when it’s been your “turn” to do the dishes the last seven times.

(You might even get playful and growl.)

You tell her when you can’t stomach watching another rom com … and need to get some “cave time” with the fellas.

(And she probably gives you a smooch and celebrates your honesty.)

If you and your honey can get honest about so much else … why do you get so stuck, when it comes to talking about money?

If you’re in this boat … you’re far from alone. Study after study shows: the #1 thing couples fight about is money.

At first, my hubby and I couldn’t talk about money. (Par for the course, right?)

But over many years, through trial and error and a whole lotta love, we’ve learned to come together, open up, get smart, and connect with each other, around money.

Yes: that includes when we disagree!!

In this final episode of the Art of Money podcast’s first mini-season, Bari shares some of the core tools and practices from her methodology, which were designed to help you solve your biggest money problems.

Some are mindfulness and body-based, some are intimate and chocolatey, and some are just plain smart...but they’re all gentle and ready for you to use, lickety-split.

Bari shares the story of one of her biggest failures in business, and how she turned it into one of her biggest wins. You’ll also hear real-life stories from her students about how they use these tools (including what happened when one woman’s “inner teenager” threw a tantrum in the Apple Store...and the genius way she handled it).
