Money is everywhere. 💰
The device you’re using to read this blog post? Money.
The electricity in your home, powering your computer and other appliances? Money.
The chair/couch you’re sitting on? Money.
The food you eat? Money.
The air conditioning or heat in your home, the gas, the water? Money, money, money.
The vehicle you use to get to where you want to go, the gas in the tank, or any other mode of transportation you use (buses, trains, ride sharing, bicycle)? Money, money, money.
I could go on and on.
Money IS everywhere, and yet, most of us don’t have a good relationship with it, going as far back as our childhoods (how our parents reacted to money). Our relationship/trauma with money can even be generational. Most of us hate money because of how it makes us feel, which stems from our money story.
We feel guilty for having money.
We feel shame for wanting money.
We feel insecure when we don’t have money.
We feel scared when we use money.
Again, I could go on and on.
It’s time to change ALL of this.
January of this year I was called to devote the year to abundance and transformation. Part of that involved learning about money mindset and fixing my mindset around money.
In February of 2022, America had its Pluto Return (when Pluto returns to the exact degree and sign it was in at the moment the United States was born...during the signing of the Declaration of Independence).
When this happens to a country, big shit happens (not immediately but over time and in fact, had already started well before the return as Pluto moved into this position).
For America, Pluto’s Return is in Capricorn, a sign that signifies money, so fixing one’s money mindset is extremely important to do, like, NOW. Read more.
To fix my money mindset, I read books such as the ones I recommend in this post; watched IGTVs by Gina Frances and Amy Rushworth; and listened to The Amy Rushworth Show, a podcast on Spotify. Amy is amazing. She’s an unapologetic life coach and 7 figure CEO. For those who resonate with her, they can learn a lot, as I did and continue to do.
NOTE: Both Gina and Amy cater primarily to womb holders and people who identify as women with their content. Amy also teaches other life coaches, but the information she shares can still be applied by other entrepreneurs and business women.
My Favorite IGTVs from Amy Rushworth:
Manifesting Techniques That ACTUALLY Work Part 1
Manifesting Techniques That ACTUALLY Work Part 2
(The first two are the very first two that I ever watched which changed everything for me.)
Plateau to OVERFLOW in Biz, Brand, Money, & Leadership
Ancestral Blueprints Around Money & Manifesting
(The Ancestral Blueprints one is so good. If you watch just one of the IGTVs, make it that one.)
And my favorite The Amy Rushworth Show Podcast Episodes:
Confidence Through Big Life Changes
I first heard about devoting a day to money and abundance through Gina Frances, an embodiment facilitator/menstrual business coach.
You can check out this IGTV from Gina, which kicked off her Money Monday feature that she did for a short time on Instagram. In this IGTV she talks about what she did for her Money Mondays. Now, she does her money practices on Thursday, which is ruled by Jupiter and is associated with abundance, career, luck, money, and wealth.
What is a Wealth Date?
A day devoted to money and abundance and YOU!
(Which you don’t have to call a "Wealth Date," or “Money Monday,” or even “Money Day,” but getting comfortable with a phrase like this could be a part of your healing process around money and making money FUN.)
On Thursdays, I spend time being grateful, manifesting, and connecting to money.
You can choose the day that feels right for you, whether that's Monday, Thursday, or Saturday.
