  • 8 // Think and Be Rich Bitch- How to Change Your Relationship with Money

    Hey Milk & Money Honeys!

    Today’s guest is Andrea, a nutritionist, personal trainer, health coach and food and body coach. Her and her husband recently left their 9-5s making over $300k per year to pursue their dreams of entrepreneurship!
    Here is the drip:
    We have a responsibility to the people around us to show them what is truly possible! If we’re afraid to quit our high paying 9-5 job and don’t go after our dreams, how are they ever going to get the courage to?
    What keeps us from making what we deserve is our ability to receive it. Andrea is on track to make $1.2 million, but the truth is - making $200,000+ scares me a little bit. Being aware of that fear is the first step in conquering it and claiming your wealth!
    Everything happens twice in our lives: first in our mind, and then in reality. Mindset is so important throughout this entire process. Take the time to visualize what you want out of life, versus just letting life happen to you.

    Put the goal in mind and in sight. Jess and her husband put all their debt on a whiteboard and kept crossing things off until they finished.
    Jess started with paying off the smallest debt to the highest debt. Once they got on a roll, they switched to paying off debts with the highest interest to the lowest interest.
    Be resourceful in finding money in current expenses, increasing current income and create additional income through side hustles
