How to View Your Relationship with Money in Your Design Firm

161: How to View Your Relationship with Money in Your Design Firm with Aimee LaLiberti With us on the podcast today is Aimee LaLiberte. Aimee is the owner of My Virtual CFO and is also a life and money coach. We are chatting about having a relationship with money – the good and the bad. Listen in as we talk about money being neutral and amoral. Afterward, leave yourself some time to reflect on how money was viewed by your family during your childhood and how that influences the type of business you run today. Topics Mentioned: Beliefs  Money mindset  Comparison  Resistance  Key Thoughts:   Money doesn't have a morality. It's what we do with it and how we handle it. It's our choices that that are morally inclined, but money is just an object. Michele (10:51)    I think sometimes breaking apart the constructs that we've held, can really kind of shake us when we realized that they were never true. Michele (17:22)    What I found every time I've grown my business, it has been when I've let go of this pre-determined agenda that I've had about myself, that you need to work really hard in order to get ahead. As soon as I dropped that and said, I believe in myself, it's always unfolded. Amy LaLiberte (19:40)    Price it properly and serve them and the rest is going to take care of itself as far as the ability to make money. Michele (22:14)    When I really started to examine my work hard attitude and work life balance, I realized this is not what I preach to my clients. Why is it that I would never want to hear my clients doing this, and yet it's acceptable to me? It was really that moment where I had to take a step back and say, okay, something's got to give, what do I need to do?   Amy LaLiberte (23:30)   Contact Michele: Email: [email protected] Facebook: Scarlet Thread Consulting Instagram: @ScarletThreadATL Website: ScarletThreadConsulting.com LinkedIn: Michele Williams Contact Aimee: Website: My Virtual CFO Instagram: @MyVirtualCFO Facebook: MyVirtualCFO LinkedIn: Aimee LaLiberte Email: [email protected] References and Resources: AIM Masterclass - Watch now Toilet Paper Entrepreneur, Fix This Next, Profit First, Pumpkin Plan by Mike Michalowicz Pricing Without Emotion® Understanding Your Financials™ Master Your Profit®
