Your relationship with money is more important than your income.
I truly mean that.
If you have a healthy relationship with money, you’ll find it easy and natural to manage your money in alignment with your values, not ego.
If you have an unhealthy relationship with money, be prepared to feel stressed about money forever – even if you make a lot of it or experience a windfall like winning the lottery.
Fortunately, it’s not that hard to have a good relationship with money.
You already have a template…
The way you treat people you care about provides a blue-print for how you should treat your money.
If you want to keep people in your life, you treat them well.
If you don’t care to keep someone in your life, you either treat them badly or neglect them.
The same kind of behaviors that make people stay, make money stay.

I know this sounds a little woo-woo out there, but I believe this 100%. Money behaves like a person. And just like people leave or stay in your life, depending on how you treat them, so well money. Treat someone well and they stick around. Generally speaking. I know there are exceptions and I’m not talking about dating. This is much more about like friends and family. So yeah, if you show them love, they’ll stay in your life. But if you’re disrespectful or neglectful, you’d understand that they’d bounce. Money responds the same way. If your money, all the money you’ve ever had in the past, in the present, if it could talk, what would it say about how you’ve treated it? It’s a tough question to ask yourself, but if you’re being honest, you might have a better understanding of why you feel it’s ditching you.
I know there’s inflation and a ton of other things responsible for why a lot of money is going out, but how we treat money absolutely impacts how much of it stays or goes. Like if you’re constantly speaking badly about your money, how it’s not enough, then it’s going to take off the same way a friend would who found out you were talking smack about them behind their back. Same goes for not paying attention to your money or taking it for granted and expecting it to be there for you, even though you’ve never been there for it. In this moment, you’re thinking, “Oh crap, I really need to treat my money better.” Then, be sure to catch my video on how to show money love. I’ll see you there.
