Always overgiving, overdelivering, and over it?

💸 If you’re ready to stop abandoning yourself and start building wealth with softness, structure, and somatic safety — this one’s for you.

•What the abandonment wound actually is (and why we all have it)

•How it creates money chaos in your adult life — from overspending to people-pleasing

People pleasers, this one’s for you!!

If you’ve ever said “yes” when your body screamed “no,” overspent to keep people happy, or struggled to ask for a raise — this episode is a must-listen.

In today’s episode, I break down how chronic people-pleasing is not just an emotional pattern, but a financial one — rooted in nervous system survival. 

We unpack the Fawn Response, reveal how it shows up in your business and bank account, and I offer trauma-informed steps to begin untangling yourself from the People-Pleaser Tax.

Whether you undercharge, overgive, or feel guilty every time you think about setting boundaries — you are not alone. And more importantly, you’re not broken. You’re protecting yourself the only way your body knew how.

Tune in to learn:

•Why people-pleasing is a nervous system response, not a personality trait

•How the Fawn Response impacts your pricing, boundaries, and spending

•The real cost of saying yes when you mean no

•Trauma-informed, somatic steps to begin healing this money-draining pattern

•Why addressing this at the nervous system level is essential for true financial freedom

When visibility feels like danger to your nervous system, no spreadsheet or marketing strategy will fix your finances.

In this episode, I am getting down and dirty as I share a personal exploration of how my visibility wounds were quietly sabotaging my finances — and how this shows up for so many of my 1:1 clients.

If you’ve ever felt stuck at a certain income level, struggled to save, or felt resistance around showing up online or in relationships, this episode is for you. I break down how early life experiences, social conditioning, and relational trauma all shape our nervous system’s relationship with being seen — and how that, in turn, affects our money.

Key Takeaways:

• Visibility wounds can cause both overspending and underearning.
• If basic financial advice feels obvious but inapplicable, it’s time to consider a holistic approach.
• The fear of being seen is a *nervous system pattern*, not a mindset flaw.
• How trauma, social conditioning, and childhood experiences create financial self-sabotage.
• Healing requires both inner child work and being witnessed in safe, supportive spaces.
•  Tangible journaling prompts and reflection questions to begin healing your visibility blocks.

In this episode, I’m walking you through why your financial habits — like overspending, under-saving, or money avoidance — are symptoms, not problems. They often trace back to the hidden money stories you absorbed between the ages of 2 and 12.

I’ll also guide you through powerful journaling prompts so you can begin excavating your own money story today.

What You’ll Learn:

•Why spreadsheets and budgets aren’t enough to truly change your financial patterns

•How your childhood environment shaped your current relationship with money

•The surprising way my “just enough” income pattern was rooted in early scarcity

•How somatic healing helps rewire outdated money beliefs on a nervous system level

•Journaling prompts to start exploring your own money story

Resources Mentioned:

•Money Magic Mentorship Program — My 10-week signature mentorship to heal your relationship with money and step into financial ease.

•What did you enjoy about your home as a child? What did you wish was different?

•Did you feel safe (financially and otherwise) growing up?

•Who did you have to be to receive positive attention at home and school?

•List 5 words to describe each of your caregivers’ relationship with money. Which of those do you still carry today?

Uncertainty can feel like kryptonite for our nervous system, but we are not helpless in the face of it. 

Today, we’re diving into the concept of *Financial Cues of Safety*—small but powerful financial actions that can help soothe your nervous system, create a sense of stability, and shift your relationship with money from one of stress to one of empowerment, which is very needed in these times. Because, believe it or not, money can actually be a tool for regulation, not just a source of chaos.  

Key Takeaways:

1. Your nervous system influences how you experience money, and vice versa. Slowing down and noticing financial patterns under stress can help you shift from reaction to intention.  

2. Financial safety isn’t just about more money—it’s about what actually makes you feel safe. Ask yourself: Will this financial action energize me or burn me out?  

3. Small financial steps can be powerful cues of safety. Whether it’s following up on an invoice, negotiating a bill, or setting financial boundaries, these micro-actions can create macro shifts in your nervous system.  

4. Money amplifies who you already are. When used with intention, financial empowerment can help you care for yourself *and* your community in sustainable ways.  

Keywords:

Financial nervous system regulation, financial stability, financial empowerment, nervous system safety, money and resilience.

Welcome back to the show!

In this episode, my guest Cecily Sailer and I dive into the intersections of creativity, healing, resilience… and money!

We explore the societal conditioning that makes so many of us believe we’re "not creative," the fears of being a "starving artist," and how capitalism warps our relationship with creativity. We also unpack how tarot can be a powerful tool for self-discovery, trauma healing, and making powerful money moves, revealing hidden patterns around abundance and scarcity. If you’ve ever struggled with accessing your creative power, feared that pursuing creativity means sacrificing financial stability, or wondered how to stay authentic in business while resisting harmful systems, this conversation will leave you feeling inspired and empowered.  

Key Episode Takeaways:

1. Creativity is not just for artists– Many of us were taught that creativity is frivolous or reserved for the "gifted," but it's actually essential for survival, healing, and resilience.  

2. Why unlearning childhood and societal conditioning around creativity can help you to reconnect with authentic self-expression.  

3. Using Tarot as a mirror for abundance & money blocks – Tarot can reveal subconscious beliefs about money, power, and self-worth, helping creatives and entrepreneurs shift their financial mindset.  

4. How creativity & business profit can coexist – Thriving artists and creators prove that you don’t have to sacrifice authenticity for financial success—you can create and still be prosperous.  

5. Staying creative in a capitalist world requires care and connection – Balancing business, grief, and creativity means regulating the nervous system, practicing self-care, and rejecting toxic productivity.

Welcome back to the show!

In this episode, I sit down with a Somatic Trauma Resolution Practitioner and Educator, Veronica Rottman, @wakingwomb, whose approach to nervous system healing challenges traditional teachings and brings a fresh, nuanced perspective. 

We dive into the unique ways the female nervous system experiences trauma, the connection between the menstrual cycle and financial habits, and why mainstream somatic healing myths might be keeping people stuck. 

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by nervous system dysregulation—whether around money, emotions, or physical symptoms—this conversation will offer deep insights and actionable tools to support your healing journey.  

 Key Takeaways:

1. CPTS vs. CPTSD– Dropping the ‘D’ acknowledges that trauma responses are not disorders, but adaptive nervous system reactions to stress.  

2. Somatic Healing Myths – Simply acting out emotions (rage, crying, etc.) isn’t true somatic work and may actually reinforce dysregulation rather than resolve it.  

3. Trauma & The Female Nervous System – How the Female Nervous System moves through nervous system dysregulation differently, and how hormonal shifts play a key role in how women experience trauma and emotions.  

4. Money & The Nervous System – Financial habits like overspending, hyper-frugality, or debt cycles are often rooted in nervous system dysregulation, not just mindset issues.  

5. Menstrual Cycle & Money– Different phases of the menstrual cycle influence nervous system regulation, impulse control, and even financial decision-making.  

Connect with Veronica:

Veronica is a somatic trauma resolution practitioner (SEP) who specializes in the female nervous system. Her background of over 16 years in somatics integrates a variety of modalities including Veronicaʼs own methodoloy that centers the needs of the female nervous system. Her other areas of specialty include developmental trauma, somatic attachment therapy, CPTS, sexual boundary violations, and more. She is a mother of 2, a wife and a lover of soup, music and nature.
