Focus Friday: How to Stop Panicking About Money Apr 12, 2019

Show notes

Growing up, were you taught money was scarce and hard to come by?

In this week's Focus Friday we are diving deep into our money mindsets! If we have a core belief that attracting money in abundance is challenging; it will feel exponentially painful when we do not have control over our finances.

We have an opportunity to see things with a different lens. Providing value + service to others is always going to be the highest vibration through which we can serve.

Instead of thinking about how we are going to generate more revenues, think about how we can best utilize our light + energy to fulfill ourselves and others.

In This Episode:

Welcome in abundance [ 5:35 ]
Provide value + service to others [ 7:45 ]
Giving all of our energy to our offerings [ 10:25 ]
Challenges that arise with the universe [ 13:45 ]
Interrupting the thought patterns [ 15:55 ]

Soul Shifting Quotes:

"It doesn't feel very soothing to work with someone who is having a panic attack about money."
"We can't welcome in more if we are focusing on how little is available."
"We have to be inspired and creative in order to generate more of the good stuff."
"Suffering + spinning in uncertainty is not going to help you change your financial situation."
"Our businesses are built by our energies."
"Receive the abundance in exchange for the value you provide."

Focus Friday: Working for Worthiness Mar 29, 2019

Show notes

What would our lives look like if we weren't always working for our own worth?

In this week's Focus Friday, and we are talking about something that always lands in my inbox and a topic I hear from others so often: worthiness. At the end of the day, worthiness is an illusion. We are ALL worthy of our big dreams. Once we live in the abundant now, we recognize how worthiness is a faulty premise we build our lives upon.

Worthiness can keep us from greatness + the doubt that we feel about our own personal worth is what stops us on the trail to truly living.

In This Episode:

Worthiness is an illusion [ 2:15 ]
Our children are worthy of unconditional love [ 4:30 ]
Stop waging wars with ourselves [ 7:15 ]
What would our lives look like if we were not working for our worth? [ 8:50 ]
Permitting ourselves to pursue [ 11:20 ]

Soul Shifting Quotes:

"Take a leap, connect the dots, and add up the miraculous equation of a near-death experience."
"There is nothing to prove here. Stop fighting the battle against yourself."
"It's in this place and this space where we can stop working for worthy and instead live into the fullness of who we really are."
"I don't have to work for love because I know how to love unconditionally."
"Our fear is what makes us so much more alike than we are different."
"Recognize that worthiness is simply an illusion, not the truth."
