The Amygdala Hijack: Why Your Brain Fears Scaling Beyond Six Figures 

Your brain thinks scaling to six or seven figures is dangerous for you. 

And until you understand why, you'll keep almost breaking through to your next level of income, but never quite getting there.

In this episode, I'm walking you through the neuroscience behind your current income, why your brain is wired to keep you exactly where you are, and the exact practices I use with my highest-level clients to rewire it.

You'll learn:

How cognitive mapping (your brain's GPS) sets an invisible income ceiling
Why your amygdala registers your next level of wealth as a literal threat
The fight, flight, freeze, fawn response that's quietly sabotaging your scaling
How to use simulation theory to bypass your brain's protection mode
Why nervous system safety is the missing piece in most wealth work
The prediction error method one of my clients used to catapult her income
A simple daily practice to normalise your next level identity before you hustle for it

This is for the high-performing woman who knows her income does not match what she's capable of, and is ready to do wealth the easy and relaxed way. Work on the inside first, and the outside takes care of itself.
