Hi, friend. Tell me, have you been practicing all the techniques we've been talking about to create a healthy money mindset? How's it going? Please let me know if they are really working for you or if you are struggling with one in particular. I'd love to know and to help you if I can, of course. So I want to tell you about something that happened to me over the weekend. If you are a subscriber to my newsletter, you might have heard a little bit about what I'm about to tell you. But here's the whole story. So this story could start like this. I had a dream. No, I'm not even kidding. But just so that you are situated, I've been having an existential crisis. It's my birthday month and I was having a bit of a hard time with it. Well, there are birthdays that are a little more difficult than others. So the story goes something like this. I belong to a business book club and we are reading at the moment. You are a Badass at Making Money by Jen Sincero. And on Saturday night, well, it was already Sunday morning I suppose, I had a dream. I can't remember what I was dreaming about, but I remember holding in my hands a new out of the box tampon. Yeah, you heard that right? It's so random. And honestly, I don't even know how that fit into the dream because I don't. For the life of me, I don't remember the dream I was having. Anyway, I woke up, it was so weird. And I just thought, what was I even dreaming? The only thing I remember from the dream was this random thing that I was holding a tampon in my hand. And because it was Sunday I got up, but it was still early, I put my coffee maker on and I decided to stay in bed a little bit longer and read. Right? And I kid you not. Five minutes after I was reading, I get to a part in the book in chapter nine where she says, the author, she talks about going to visit her cousin in Italy and she says that she stashed her ash inside a box of tampons. I mean… I thought, what? Honestly, when I read it, I had to read it again and again. I said, is this really happening? It was. Anyway, I thought that was really strange. And it's true that I've been having a little bit of a hard time keeping my spirits up. I've been thinking a lot if I should even do what I'm doing, if I should have left my day job. It's been a bit tough, tougher than I anticipated. Anyway, Well, somehow, don't ask me why, I thought, is this some kind of sign? Am I supposed to know what this means? I didn't know what that meant. I have no idea still what that meant. I just want to take it as a sign.

So, I got up. I stopped reading right there. I got up, I went to the kitchen, had breakfast. I went for a long walk with my husband. And it was cold, but really nice. And I even told him the story and he didn't understand anything. Anyway, long story short, I come home, we take care of lunch, start putting that together, and I go on YouTube because I'm a big YouTube consumer.
