Most money blocks are the result of poorly told stories going on in our heads, stories that hold us back from generating the wealth that we deserve and from fulfilling our birthright: financial freedom.

If this is you, I have good news! The problem is that most of these stories came from lessons in your life that were caught, not taught. So now you’re navigating from a money setpoint that was created unconsciously by default and observation.

It’s time to take action, to stop ignoring your mindset blocks. If you don't deal with what’s happening in your head, you won't be able to deal with what’s happening in your bank account.

Changing your money story will allow you to shift your behavior, which will in turn change your ability to create wealth. If you are ready to receive more support with eliminating your mindset blocks so you can experience a richer lifestyle, deeper impact, and the complete freedom that you deserve, visit www.affluencelive.com and join the waitlist to experience this transformational experience.

IN TODAY’S EPISODE I DISCUSS: 

• Understanding how our beliefs around money are created 
• My four-part framework on how to change your habits around money and shift your financial future forever
• How to separate the facts from the interpretation of those facts so you can change your mind around the situations in your life

If you’re like most entrepreneurs I work with, you probably love the holidays. With the holidays also comes the joy of constant celebration and gift-giving.

It’s normal to experience the desire to show your appreciation and gratefulness by being generous to those you love. However, this joyful time can also bring a serious case of holiday hangover come January when the credit card bills come in with a balance higher than what you can actually afford.

Today we’re discussing how to plan for your holiday gifting this season without breaking the bank. I want to help you think through how to give smartly without putting you in a situation that you’ll regret later.

At the end of the day, this episode isn’t about not giving or not being in the holiday spirit. It is about being realistic about your financial situation and making spending choices that won’t set you back financially for the rest of next year.

IN THIS EPISODE I DISCUSS: 

• 12 steps to optimize your spending this holiday season
• How to make sure your family is not affected by holiday spending during this slow economic time 
• My tips to avoid Black Friday and Cyber Monday overspending
• The best way to plan for expensive gifts 
• The ultimate gift you should be giving this holiday season

It’s that time of the year when we all start reflecting… We all take a moment to be grateful for the people in our lives and the things we have.

As we celebrate Thanksgiving in the US this week, my hope is to light the path for you to experience a richer lifestyle regardless of where you are in your financial journey. As I’ve touched on before, richness in life goes beyond money, it’s measured in the currency of experiences.

If you’re a repeat listener of the podcast (and if not, you should be :-)), then you’re probably well on your way to creating your own version of an Affluent Life. For that, I’m so very proud of you! Yet, I also want to invite you to pause, think, and appreciate the journey itself…with all the highs and lows. Just like the melody of a song, the highs and lows create the depth of richness you experience.

I believe today's society is starving for people coming from a place of gratitude and showing appreciation for others and themselves. I firmly believe that if we approach life humbly, considering others' needs and desires, and showing gratitude and appreciation, we'll have bigger chances of getting where we want to go. This way we'll leave a trail of beautiful souls blessed with our gratitude and appreciation, and the best part of it, it doesn't cost us anything.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I’m beyond grateful for this Affluent Entrepreneur community. I appreciate you for allowing me to live my calling in life. May this episode inspire you to appreciate how you can decide to live yours starting today!

TODAY WE’RE DISCUSSING:

• The effects of not practicing gratitude, how it can affect our business, our relationships, and our lives in general
• What happens when we bring up the energy of gratitude into our lives
• The three core principles of practicing gratitude
• The three categories from the internal perspective of gratitude
• What activities we need to put into play to practice gratitude
• What is The Gratitude Game Plan™

You may have heard me say before… no one has money issues. The reality is that they’re actually money symptoms. Symptoms of decisions, choices, and behaviors of the past. I get that can be confronting but it should also be empowering to know that simply changing some behaviors can completely transform your financial destiny.

Here’s the deal though, your decisions, choices, and behaviors are impacted by your attitude or learned biases around money and wealth.

A bias is a way we process and interpret information. Our bias–and therefore our attitude– is often simply the result of our life experiences. The fact these attitudes could be the very thing that holds from the wealth and financial freedom you deserve.

Wherever these attitudes came from we can change them. So today, I walk through some of the most common biases that may be robbing you of an affluent financial future.

When you think differently about your money, you can act differently. When you act differently you'll have a whole new set of behaviors that will completely transform your money game. This will keep you in the driver's seat of your financial ship.

TODAY WE’RE DISCUSSING:

• The eight biases that may be keeping you from the financial freedom you desire and deserve
• How to reframe the attitudes and biases to support your financial journey instead of hindering it

EPISODES MENTIONED: 

• Ep 075 How to Avoid Risk in Investing.

I bet by now you’re tired of hearing that more millionaires are created during recessions than at any other time. Personally, this is something that encourages me when I analyze the current state of the economy: when most people see challenges, an entrepreneur sees an opportunity.

That’s why today I want to equip you with the tools you need to fill in the HOW portion of the puzzle. How do you build wealth during a recession? What exactly do you need to do? What is the game plan so you do it the right way?

My goal is to give you tools and principles that have been proven to work so you can be prepared and protected against recession and any other economic hardship. I want to see you live peacefully through this and come out successfully on the other side of uncertainty.

When you understand the basic concepts related to economic downturns, you'll realize that in reality, you have more power than you think and you’ll see where all the opportunities you’ve always heard about are.

If you’re on your path to creating your affluent life, taking your foot off the pedal is not a choice you can afford to make. Not only for your future but for your legacy and the future of those that are coming after you. Let’s do this together!

TODAY WE’RE DISCUSSING:

• Understanding the basic terms: recession, inflation, bear market, and bull market
• Reviewing economic cycles and how you can ahead of the market changes
• How much could sitting on the sidelines may be costing you 
• How you leverage fear during the recession
• The importance of community when navigating uncertainty

Have you ever been in a situation where you were trying to make an important financial decision, but just couldn’t? Maybe this is happening to you right now. Maybe you’re holding back because you’re afraid to make the wrong choice.

The problem is that you can’t stay living in fear because when you have fear, you don't fully show up. The resistance and uncertainty you feel make you tiptoe around your goals, so you need to find a way to overcome them.

My goal is to help show up fully for your dreams so you can finally go that extra mile and get the results you want.

If you feel like there’s something holding you back, this episode is for you. Today I’m walking you through my framework: Six Stages Of Conquering Financial Fear. Grab pen and paper and get ready to be equipped with a checklist that will help you move beyond the fear of making the right financial decisions.

This is the exact process I use when working with my 1-on-1 Elite clients or those in my Master's group.

Yep, it doesn’t matter what level you’re at, fear lingers and lurks but the most important thing is how you are able to control it so it doesn’t control you.

TODAY WE’RE DISCUSSING:

• Reframing what you believe about fear: the difference between being brave and being courageous 
• Where you need to start if you’re trying to overcome the fear of making a choice
• The six steps that will take you from confusion to having a confident plan to move forward with that financial decision you’ve been putting off

One of the best and fastest ways to build wealth and create financial freedom is to elevate your income to get paid more for what you do.

Are you struggling, trying to figure out the best way to price your products or services? Do you want to increase your rates and finally get paid what you’re worth?

Listen up coaches, consultants, and service providers; spoiler alert: selling hours is NOT the way to reach your financial goals.

At the end of the day, my goal is to help you see the importance of positioning yourself as a value provider, not as a transactional provider only.

We have to see our own worth first before we can sell our worth to others.

The truth is, the more you can articulate the value you offer in the world, the more you can increase your income, and the more you increase your income, the faster you can ramp up your path to wealth and financial freedom.

TODAY, WE’RE DISCUSSING:

• How to position yourself and your offer correctly to convey the value of the transformation your prospect will be receiving
• The difference between value and cost
• The importance of positioning yourself as an expert in the marketplace 
• The four levels to consider when determining your prices
