What if your relationship with money isn’t broken—it’s just misunderstood?
In this piece, I name the feeling we’re not supposed to talk about: the resentment that rises when we see someone else win and wonder why it isn’t us.
I talk about the “dragon phase”—when money felt like a beast I had to conquer. Hoard. Guard. Fear.
But then I asked myself a question that changed everything:
“What could feel better than this?”
And the answer came: a friend.Money as companion.Money as witness.Money as love.
This is a story about rage, reckoning, and rewriting the rules.
Because when you stop performing worthiness and start cultivating intimacy with your money…everything changes.
Your profit is no longer a prize. It becomes a protest. A love letter. A revolution.
So ask yourself:
💚 What are you trying to prove?💚 What’s your dragon protecting?💚 What would feel even better than this?
