Whatever you are into spiritually, religiously, scientifically, universally, etc., you most likely have a relationship between the higher powers and money. Usually, it takes the form of asking for any of it, more of it, or why it's not flowing in the way you desire. This week, Dr. Venus talks about how we can expand our experience with God so it includes money in a way that aligns with your dreams and needs. She first breaks down the historical explanation of why religion can keep us from accessing the divine source of money, and how we can shift our relationship with God surrounding wealth. Then, Dr. Venus shares practical steps towards attracting money using our own power rather than relying on other people or situations.

Key Takeaways:

[2:00] When Dr. Venus says God, she refers to that which is greater than yourself. That which animates life. This is a no-judgment zone for whatever your beliefs may be, and you are welcomed to connect to God in any way that works for you.

[3:41] The Black Church was historically a way to filter slavery and oppression through North America. The dogma and survival strategies we have inherited can keep us from accessing God as a divine source.

[7:01] We have been taught and trained to pray to God if there is a problem with bills and money. We hope God will favor us, but Dr. Venus invites us to understand money is more of a source energy that is free-flowing like a stream rather than a one-time transaction.

[11:05] The source of all that exists and appears is God, so money is just another energy that flows and requires a conduit. When we are open, grounded, and heart-centered, we can become that conduit.

[18:06] It's not about the millions, it's about what the money represents and the freedom that comes with writing down those zeros on the check.

[22:10] Until you stand up for yourself, you will not be profitable. You can't call on God to stand up for you. You have to stand up for you, and God will do the rest.

[26:40] We can shift the wants to needs that inspire us to take destiny driven action. It takes a level of ruthless honesty to free yourself of the dogma of being a victim, waiting on others, and hoping God will turn it around.

[29:12] You would be surprised how many people lose millions because they can't follow directions or follow through on their word.

Quotes:

• "I never talked to God about my dreams or my money, because I wasn't trained that way. I talked to God about my problems."
• "If people don't do what they say in their actions, their words make no difference."
• "You don't know what people can do until they demonstrate it."
• "God wants you to win. But you are going to have to shift how you relate to God to access that."
• "When I relate to that which is bigger than me, there's nothing that's not God. Everything is God."
