You may already have guessed this….

But spending, earning, and having money is really, really f*king awesome. It’s fun. Enjoyable. Magical.

When I spend money, I feel like a f*cking badass. I love earning. I am grateful for earning. I also love spending. It fills me with joy, excitement, and gratitude.

But not always.

There are times when spending more, or earning more, starts to brush up against my limiting beliefs, or my energetic maximums of what I believe I can/can’t have.

New levels of spending can create doubts:

If you weren’t exposed to wealth on a personal level during your life, it might take some time to unlearn what you believe you can and can not have.

Here’s the key to stepping up and achieving your next level of wealth

Start to treat the next level of earning, spending, receiving as if it’s no big deal

And here’s how to shift your mindset:

Holding yourself back from spending because you’re afraid money might run out is not the vibe

Tap into, and rant on, the 2.0 version of yourself.

Put yourself in the vibrations of growth and expansion. Feel it. Recognize it. Because the world responds to your vibrations. How you FEEL.

So when you FEEL like an abundant badass b*tch, the world responds to that energy and provides what it is you want.

To step into your next level of abundance, focus on the feelings you want to feel. How does the 2.0 version of you show up in day to day life? How are you supported by money, how do you act, feel and show up?

You are a badass, friends.

Ever thought to yourself: “I KNOW I should be saving more!”? Or how about something like “I spend wayyy too much money on stupid stuff!”

If you’ve ever thought, or said either of those phrases, I have a really, really f*cking powerful message for you today.

After working with hundreds of people on their money beliefs, I’ve seen and heard it all. We hear things like....

Because the whole point of life is to work hard, save all your money, and live like a monk, right?

Let me tell you this -- we humans have really f*cked this whole spending money thing up

I have a few things I need you to know

If you desire to change, you have the capacity and ability to change right now

And here’s what I want to teach you -- Spending money is a high vibe act

Spending money supports you. Spending money supports the economy. Money supports you. Spending money is an act of love. But I didn’t always believe this. I too, had f*cked up beliefs around money for a long time.

But the kicker: when you show up feeling guilty or shameful, you show the universe that you’re not ready for your next level of abundance

That you don’t feel supported by, or with, money. And in doing so, so you will continue to create a reality where money doesn’t feel like a supportive force in your life. This happens because the universe responds to the energy you put out.

So how do you want to feel with money? What type of life and experiences do you want to feel with money?

***I have a special announcement for you***

I am offering a one hour FREE money workshop where I will help you make more money. 

If you are ready for some massive abundance, join me February 19th, 2021 at 10am PST / 1pm EST for my ONE HOUR FREE MONEY WORKSHOP

It’s time to address the elephant in the room. Spending money and feeling guilty.

As we all know, 98% of people do not feel comfortable talking about money. And certainly don’t feel comfortable confronting any of their unhealthy money beliefs

Let me quickly tell you -- If you feel guilt when you spend money, know you’re not alone. I used to feel such massive guilt for spending money.

Trust me, I know how you feel.

And while I’m not particularly proud of this old Scottie, I feel so much compassion and love for him. He was simply doing the best he could.

Almost every single logical human (not born into billions of dollars) has likely felt guilt around spending at some point in their lives

So just know, you’re not alone.

And I need you to know this: It is not your fault if you don’t have a great relationship with money

It’s simply just not your fault

However… (and this is a big however)

As an adult, it is now our responsibility to identify if our relationship with money is one we want to keep, or one we want to shift. And make the shift if desired.

Let me say it differently. You are not to blame for your current situation, but you can take ownership of your feelings and life and make a change if you desire to.

In one way or another, what I hear from my clients is this: I know I should be better with my money, but money stresses me out and makes me so anxious. I don't even know where to start.

And so the cycle continues.

I’m here to show you, this is not how life has to be.

What does this guilt do for you?

What would it feel like if you didn’t have this guilt?

If this resonates with you, and you want to explore repairing your relationship with money, let's talk. There’s so much here to work on, but just know, your journey is yours alone.

I’m here to help.

If you want to explore one on one coaching, let me know. Because you deserve to life a happy, fulfilled, and supported life with money.

Why do we sometimes feel that we have to WORK HARD to be successful?

Well, I’m here to tell you - this paradigm does NOT have to be true for you.

Notes covered in the podcast:

Tactical Action Items

But FIRST, you have to perform an 80/20 analysis with your time and activities! The truth is that 80% of your performance is probably the result of 20% of your energy. So look at your calendar, analyze your time, be truthful -- Where are you spending your time?

Once you do this… then it’s time to APPLY the three activities

1) DELEGATE

Hire a virtual assistant -- you can find them through lots of different tools,including :

2) AUTOMATE

I use this all the time with my team -- anytime there’s a question, rather than calling my employee and explaining it to them once, I record myself answering the question, then put it in a library for the employee to watch, along with anyone else who may have a similar question!

Talk about multiplying your time! The key here is to see things differently. And being honest with yourself -- are you doing things you probably don’t need to do?

3) ELIMINATE

Cut out all the activities that TRULY don’t need to be done. They may seem urgent, they may seem intense… but you know… if you cut them out your life would be a lot easier.

AND FINALLY

The ultimate question: how can you start earning income without trading time for money? Aka Passive Income! This is a hard thing for many of us to wrap our heads around, because most income we receive is active.

Here are a bunch of examples to kickstart the brainstorming process -- but I want you to think about this specifically for you!

I want to ask you right now -- using your current skill set and ideas, what could you create or what type of system or process could you create to help other people and sell to them?

You are a badass. Keep kickin’ it -

I want to talk about something that may seem a little controversial today.

There are plenty of people out there who say things like “money can’t buy happiness” or “money is the root of all evil.”

And to put it simply, they’re wrong.

In fact, money can in fact buy happiness. But not in the way you think it can.

If you want to make 2021 the most fulfilled, happy, and joyful year yet, we have to recognize and dispel old beliefs around money. And this is exactly what I do in the video.

The old beliefs:

The new beliefs:

Let me know what you think!

You are a badass, and I love you.

Home for the holidays (or, let's face it, stuck)?

Despite this being one of the strangest holidays we will probably ever face, money will continue to flow, and life will move on.

And I want money to flow to you. So, I have some tips for you, that you can use, right now.

Side note: I'm a BIG fan of disconnecting, recharging, and spending time with family. Do what you need/are inspired to do when it comes to spending time with loved ones. But letsbereal..... how many games of Monopoly can you really play?

Okay, onto the good stuff. As the king of staying productive, I wanted to help you out this holiday season with FOUR tips to make more money, NOW

1. Rent out your car on Turo

If you have a car, and you're traveling for the holidays, set your car up on Turo to be rented! www.turo.com

2. Consult using Upwork / Fiverr

Do you have a skillset that's useful? (hint: that was rhetorical, you definitely do). Sign up and do some consulting over the holidays while things are slow!

http://upwork.com/

https://www.fiverr.com/

https://99designs.com/

https://www.freelancer.com/

3. Sell some stuff

Instead of climbing over all your stuff you keep telling yourself you'll get rid of, how about selling it? Letgo and Facebook Marketplace are both super easy to use, incredibly convenient, and you can start to get paid AND clean out your place!

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace

Note: Letgo is now a part of OfferUp! https://offerup.com/

4. Increase your salary!

While you're at home, here are three tips you can do to increase your salary no matter what you do for work!

(1) Prepare to ask for a raise. Research competitive salaries; compile a list of all you did in 2020 and outline how/why you deserve more money

(2) Look for new jobs if your current work isn't satisfying (or paying you) what you desire

(3) If you're self employed, take the holiday to create a game plan and strategy to increase your revenue and income in 2021 ((hint: definitely hire a business coach to help you with this!)

5. Get in line with the ENERGETIC principles, too. To MAXIMIZE the above 4 tips, head on over to my bio grab my FREE 5 Steps to Manifesting MORE MONEY NOW. It's an incredibly powerful resource on blending the energetic side of making money

Have a wonderful holiday!

For episode, I wanted to totally just riff on having a WEALTH MINDSET

Concepts in this podcast:

There is a big difference between WEALTH and INCOME

REVENUE/INCOME DOES NOT EQUAL WEALTH. Real wealth is measured by your NET WORTH.

Net worth = Assets - Liabilities

Define what Wealth means to you

Does wealthy mean having $100k in the bank?

Owning $500k of equity in a property?

How would you define being wealthy? It’s KEY to determine what you believe is wealthy so you can work toward something specifically (not continue to chase unattainable goals)

Expand your definition of wealth

Think that $1m is a lot? It definitely is, in some areas, but in other areas it’s not much at all!

Go to a wealthy neighborhood, look up pictures online -- surround yourself with wealth and expand what you believe is possible.

What if you wanted more? Wanting more can expand your mind and much more growth that could happen to get to that next level!

Vibe Earning vs. Saving

Wealth is all relative! My current income goal is $1m/yr of revenue, and $5m in net worth, but when I was 24, my BIGGEST goal was $100k as a salary. Expansion is the goal here -- it doesn't matter how much you make, it matters how you continue to expand to grow yourself.

If you are a entrepreneur and thinking to yourself… I really want to expand, and I probably know I should hire someone, but I can’t seem to pull the trigger - this episode is for you. Here are my TOP FIVE tips on hiring someone ASAP to really expand your business!

Tip 1: Analyze your time. What brings you joy and/or is high vibe?

Whatever doesn’t feel high vibe, I give you permission to actually delegate it.

But of course, be honest with yourself. There’s a difference between low vibe work, and work that is high vibe, but might make you uncomfortable. Being uncomfortable but GROWING isn’t low vibe. If you’re uncomfortable, like you have that nervous energy, and you do something and feel great afterward, that’s high vibe. So while I give you permission to delegate ANYTHING you want, make sure you know what’s high vibe and what’s low vibe

Tip 2: Before hiring someone, be clear on your to dos

Tip 3: Calculate your hourly rate:

So if I want to be the person who makes $1m/year, I need to value my time at $568/hour. What would I do differently if I knew how much my time was worth? Some examples:

Tip 4: Where to hire someone?

Tip 5: When starting out, use contractors, or part time, or just a virtual assistant

Remember, hiring someone is about allowing yourself to be supported!!

Today, I wanted to just RIFF on money and money beliefs.

Most people have fucked up money beliefs. And most people aren’t millionaires. Like, most americans dont even have more than $10k in their savings.

So if you are surrounded by people similar to that, I want to be, for you, the different voice. The voice that’s going against the grain -- helping you make a fuck ton more money -- just because you want to

In order to become wealthy, you have to think and act differently. You have to adopt different beliefs -- and those beliefs have to create your new reality.

Why I want money:

Money Beliefs - Just identifying the fact that you HAVE beliefs around money is insanely powerful. Because then you can identify if there’s a script playing in your mind and you can stop the script and re-wire it anytime you want.

My new beliefs around money

I'm opening up my schedule for a select few people for a Money Coaching Bootcamp. This is not something I plan to do forever. However, I want to help a select group of people with thier money beliefs.

In this weekly, 7 week "bootcamp" 1-on-1 coaching, I will help you make more money. Period. I'll help you work through any beliefs holding you back from massive growth. Help you payoff debt. Save more. Help you tap into whatever your heart desires, and expand it massively.

Today's episode is a special one, because I'm sharing with all of you a clip from EYM (Elevate Your Mindset) the digital Course created by Ashley and myself to help.... well, ELEVATE YOUR MINDSET!

Module 5 is all about the energetic principles of money, success, and progress. And this clip comes directly from module 5, where Ashley and I discuss failure, and the idea that SOMETHING BETTER IS COMING YOUR WAY!

As a Type A recovering workaholic, I KNOW that sometimes I have a hard time holding on loosely and allowing failure into my life. However, when looking back at a previous failure - be it a relationship, a client, an entire business -- do you ever look back and just think "holy shit, thank GOD that didn't work out the way I wanted.... things are SO much better now! (and if you don't feel that way yet, it's okay, you might just need more time to heal). 

That's the topic for today's episode. When things don't work out perfectly, if we adopt the mentality that something better is coming, that the universe is sending us what we ACTUALLY want (not what we think we want), then life becomes so fun!

Enjoy the episode, and please leave a review if you're inspired to!
