143: 3 Mindsets That Allow More Money Into Your Life

In today's episode, I interview my friend and incredible marriage/couples coach: Julia Woods. After spending 25 years as a wedding and portrait photographer alongside her husband, she sold her business to become a marriage and couples coach. 


She's here to tell her story on how her business became her and her husbands' drug as workaholics and ultimately avoiding conversations that were needed to be had. Julia challenges us to take a look at our priorities and how we are spending our time, what has our attention, and challenges us to lean in to the uncomfortable conversations. This is a conversation you don't want to miss!
