It's Not About The Money

Breaking Money Cycles: Why You Self-Sabotage When Things Go Well


Listen Later

Have you ever achieved a major financial milestone - landed a big client, hit a revenue goal, or finally built up your savings - only to watch yourself systematically self-sabotage it within weeks? Maybe you suddenly took on underpriced work, made an impulsive expensive purchase, or created some drama that torpedoed your success. If this sounds familiar, I need you to understand something crucial: this isn't weakness, it's not a character flaw, and it's not lack of willpower. This is your nervous system literally treating financial success like a threat to your existence.

Right now, thousands of people are searching terms like "why do I self-sabotage when things go well" or "why can't I hold onto money" because they're experiencing what I call success dysregulation - where your body cannot tolerate the feeling of having more, so it creates chaos to bring you back to the familiarity of struggle.

Today, I'm diving into why you might be getting 80% of the way to your financial goals and then something just happens, and more importantly, how to rewire your nervous system so you can finally keep what you've created. Chapters
