  • Investing in Biz vs. Investing in SELF | #25

    Have you ever been curious about what Serena spends her money on? Are you looking for permission to treat yourself to something nice, just for you? Do you DESERVE it? Or are you the type who will invest easily in your biz but withholds the five dollar coffee from yourself because it’s frivolous?

    Buckle up, babes. Listen in to hear how Serena invests both in her desired BUSINESS needs and for her SELF. This is more than a handbag, more than a vacation, more than a mani-pedi. 

    Bombshell Mic Drop Moments:

    • Investing in your mind and heart is the priority because that’s what attracts and stewards Holy Wow Money™ 

    • It’s possible to OVERSPEND when you start making money, but this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t spend at all on yourself

    • See also: Sometimes the spirit will move you to buy something that “doesn’t make sense” – the key to balancing is to trust your body’s wisdom

    • Treating your biz like a baby – your purchases, investments, and decisions are a way that you PROTECT the growth and thriving of your business

    • We have been socialized and taught to take care of everyone else and find tiny scraps for our own selves, businesses, needs

    • You MUST invest in your SELF outside of your business to grow a Holy Wow Money™ mindset and business that nourishes and nurtures you (PS you are the asset!)

    • Donations and supporting your community and values is part of your Holy Wow Money™ mindset – remember that money flows TO you and works THROUGH you, easily and always now

    • Holy Wow Money™ Magic: Intention, Attention, No Tension | #24

      Finding money is about finding the ways it is already available to you. In this episode, Serena shares the recipe for manifestation: Intention + Attention + No Tension. 


      She INTENDED to join Martha Beck’s Londolozi retreat. She read about it in 2010 and knew it was part of her future. She used all resources available to imagine a way forward – this means giving ATTENTION to the vision. NO TENSION means surrendering to the inevitability of the universe conspiring in her favor, trusting her resourcefulness, and staying open to the different possibilities. 


      Staying open, relaxed, present, and content is such a different energy than running around trying to grab every scrap. Breathe. Slow down. Let it flow. One of the most impactful ways to get out of scarcity and desperation is to seek the evidence that you have enough. It’s the FINDING rather than desperately scrambling to search.

    • Your Innate Power to Co-Create Your Desires | #23

      Hot take: You are in PARTNERSHIP with the DIVINE. How much do you believe that?


      This is the magic of surrender… trusting that if you do your part, the universe / the divine / God / source energy will do its part too. Holy Wow Money™ is about CREATING that which calls to you, no matter how loud. Every desire is an invitation to co-create with the divine. Are you answering the call? 


      In this episode, Serena examines the idea of SURRENDER and how to CO-CREATE with the divine to bring your desires through the invisible world into the visible, physical world. 


      It is NOW SAFE to be seen and supported. It is NOW SAFE to believe in your partnership with the divine. It is NOW SAFE to do your work in this world.

    • The Perfect Amount of Money | #22

      What happens when you work on the belief that you have the perfect amount of money for yourself right now, at this moment? Bring all those prickly feelings and thoughts into this episode for a deep dive into this magical practice. 


      This is what it means that Holy Wow Money™ is NOT about the money. 


      It’s about wholeness, enoughness, seeking the truth that brings your attention and awareness to the luxurious levels of support available to you. 


      It makes sense that we default to a sense of LACK. Our healthy human brains are trained to notice danger and stay on high alert for changes to our environment that could be a threat. You’ll never eliminate lack mentality – BUT you can learn to NOTICE it and develop the ability to find your way back to supported, enough, whole.

    • You Aren’t Too Expensive | #21

      I’d LOVE to hire you… but you’re too expensive. 


      Sound familiar? You’re not alone.


      Those people aren’t your people. It’s like going on a date with a person who says “Hey, I’m super into you, I just don’t like your makeup and you talk too much.” Umm… sounds like he’s not that into you, right? Same same. 


      This statement is an invitation from the universe to stand in your Proper Pricing™ and to remember that your people hire you for YOU. 


      Mic Drop Moments this Episode:

      • Stay out of people’s wallets – if you judge them as someone who “can’t afford” your services, you’re denying them the agency to make the decision and make it happen.  

      • You have to be aligned energetically to RECEIVE – which means that folks who “can’t afford you” (aka choose not to prioritize hiring you) are actually NOT in a place where they could receive your work at a discount or on a payment plan, either.

      • We are all pawns – sometimes we will be disappointed or disappoint other people. This doesn’t mean things are wrong. It means it looks wrong to YOU. Not the same. 


      • Serena’s Media Mentions:

        Devotion is available for streaming on Amazon Prime.

      • Flying Business Class is NOT About the Money | #20

        Serena is back from a life changing trip to South Africa with Martha Beck and is bringing ELEPHANT MAGIC and more to this week’s series on the show. 


        A BoomMage recently asked Serena about flying business class… When is it time to invest at this level in travel? What will people think? Ahhhh! 


        If you’ve had this question before, you are NOT alone. Tune in to hear about energetically attuning to support at the absolute highest level to protect the asset that is YOU so that you are fully nourished and can then provide the highest support to your clients too. It’s all energetic and possible for YOU. TOO. BOO. 


        Major takeaways from this episode: 

        • Flying business class even though you’re terrified of people judging you for it

        • Protecting the ASSET – you, your biz, your investments

        • The energetic vibration of a fast food burger 

        • Your success is your clients’ success – what you are attuned to is what is possible for them too!

        • It’s not about spending money, it’s about being supported at the highest level

            • The Sacred (BOSS) Requirement of Stewarding Holy Wow Money™ | #19

              Making, having, stewarding Holy Wow Money™ is an inside job – it requires an unshakable identity and self-concept. This identity shift is a MUST to fully integrate your Holy Wow Money™ mindset instead of continuing the cycle of chasing money, burning out, rinse and repeat. 


              You aren’t just making money. You’re making CHANGE. 


              When you shift your self-concept and identity to CHANGEMAKER, DOOR OPENER, BRIGHT SHINY LIGHT, it’s about so much more than money. It’s about changing the idea of who money is FOR. Who gets to have, create, and steward it. (Hint: Not just the white patriarchy! It’s for you too, boo.) 


              When mistakes happen, this IDENTITY shift means that you don’t think YOU are the problem. Mistakes happen. It’s inevitable. But YOU are not a mistake, ever. Especially not when you understand that YOU ARE A CHANGEMAKER. 


              Listen in for real world examples and the pep talk of a LIFETIME.

              • 5 Holy Wow Money™ Teachings in Air: A Story of Greatness | #18

                The story of Nike signing on Michael Jordan has so many Holy Wow Money™ moments! Serena has identified her top five truth bombs present in this amazing film. LISTEN IN for the deets on this HOLY WOW magic.


                Holy Wow Money™ Truth Bomb #1: It happens fast (or, it can happen fast). 


                Nike had no idea what was about to happen. In the first year of Air Jordans being on the market, they 54X’d the revenue of their previous best selling shoe. 


                Holy Wow Money™ Truth Bomb #2: Your disadvantage is your advantage. 


                Nike leaned into the controversy of having non-regulation basketball shoes and leveraged this “disadvantage” into a mega powerful marketing message about standing out. 


                Holy Wow Money™ Truth Bomb #3: Hold the request.


                It’s SO easy to panic in the face of the void when you’ve made a request that isn’t immediately a yes. This movie has MULTIPLE examples of how to hold requests in the face of being told “it can’t be done.” 


                Holy Wow Money™ Truth Bomb #4: Self concept is a door opener.


                How can KNOWING your identity all the way to your core be a game changer in your industry? Watch the film with this in mind and see the doors you can open.


                Holy Wow Money™ Truth Bomb #5: Holy Wow Money™ is a win-win-win.


                Holy Wow Money™ is a TRIPLE win: a win for YOU, a win for THEM, a win for EVERYONE. More creates more, and being an industry changer meant opening the door for all athletes following in MJ’s footsteps.

                  • The Secret Sauce for Your Innate Worth | #16

                    What’s the secret to Serena’s success, coming from 6 figures in debt, bankruptcy, and no backup plan to the point of being a $2 Million PLUS cash collected coach teaching about Holy Wow Money™ all day every day? 


                    This mindset allows you to step fully into your power – your REAL power, not force/influence built on systems of oppression aka patriarchy – and see that it’s all MEANT. FOR. YOU. 


                    Three words: Radical loving responsibility. 


                    Healthy human brains are primed for FEAR to keep us SAFE of danger or pain. Being in radical loving responsibility means acting out of LOVE and presence with yourself rather than freezing out of fear of an unknown future (which leads to comparing and despairing, shaming and blaming).  


                    You can take action from LOVE. Taking radical loving responsibility for your results (business or otherwise) always brings it back to YOU. Everything is available FOR you. It’s all on you in the BEST way. (This is both the good news and the bad news).
