Updated: Jan 10, 2020
Be honest. When you first read this title, how did you feel? What comes up for you when people say money? How do you talk about money? What is the first thought or feeling you have right after you think about money? Pay attention.
I am passionate about passion, purpose, and potential. It is my heart's desire that you choose to create a life and business you love for the internal and external benefits. This including ways that you may serve and impact the world. Yes, ways that you may make and manage money like a boss.
If you are holding back in any way, shape or form how could you be and become who you are created to me? If you don't show up fully for your life, how could you walk fully in freedom? I am not talking solely about financial freedom. I am taking about freedom of expression, location, time and financial.
This is the mindset I want you to think about as we walk into
How to Make and Manage Money Like a Boss
(and What You Need to Know)
What is your story with money? I want you to think about the experience you had with family and money growing up. Did you feel like there was more than enough? Was there a feeling of peace around money at home? These are important things to think about with your own thoughts, words, and deeds. Many people today choose to live life stuck in the past recreating it. Is that the story with your money?
Gut Check. How have you spent your time making money the last 5 years? Do you love it? What is the average amount of money you have made the last 5 years? How are you managing the money you have? Are you a faithful steward? Do you practice gratitude daily? Are you excited every day? Do you take action consistently towards creating a life and business you love?
Did you know that millions of Americans are one paycheck away from financial disaster? I believe the combination of millions of people doing something they dislike for money for years leads to capping themselves and their income. We fool ourselves into thinking what we do for money may be practical or safe.
However, what do you think it does to your ability to make money when you do something you dislike daily? That's the top side.
The flip side? It's easy to see why this often leads to impacting management of money. If you go to work daily being and doing something you dislike, it's easy to feel resentful. It's harder to look inside and change your choices. It's easier to spend the money in ways that don't equal managing like a boss.
It's important to be grateful for the money you do have. What if you faced fully how you treat your money? Do you respect it? Where are you directing it to go? Are you faithfully giving, saving, investing, leveraging, creating and spending what you DO have? Or do you spend money misaligned to time, location and financial freedom?
Are your actions and behaviors aligned with making and managing money like a boss?
I am here to wake you up and PUSH you. I will do my best to create, transform and inspire. At the same time, YOU GET to be and do and own your part. This is YOUR life. You GET to choose if YOU show up for YOUR life. You are the ONLY one who is with YOU 24 hours a day. Are you your own best friend?
Story
I get it. I feel like I have lived countless experiences in life and with money. I'm sure just like you. Please know that my intention is to be your coach.
Here are some highlights of my story:
I went from:
Fear to Faith
Self Hate to Love
Corporate to Calling
Bondage to Freedom
In many ways, I feel like my "transformation story" is only beginning.
I am so grateful for all the mistakes and lessons learned because otherwise I wouldn't be who I am and where I am today. I am also exponentially grateful for each and every step.
With money, some of my experiences include:
Before:
Experiencing instability with finances as a child
Creating what I loved fully while I was in college
Choosing work with roles and industries I didn't love
Generating 6-8+ figure results annually for others
Serving entrepreneurs to Fortune 500 companies
Getting promoted regularly every year or so
Handing fraud, waste, abuse cases recovering millions
Creating partially and scarcely in what I did love
Being a side hustle queen until 8+ years ago
Overspending money for years while I did what I didn't love
Giving fully of time in areas I didn't love and scarcely in those I did
Saving little to no money for years and increasing debt
Decreasing investing in my own personal education for years
Fearful of creating community with like minded individuals
After:
Creating what I love step by step with lifestyle, transformation, entrepreneurship
Choosing to innovate and create with intention and action consistently
Aligning to being, feeling, and doing what I love how I love all the time
Innovating and creating strategy, structure and systems to make money
Setting a clear profit path from freebies to courses to events for financial freedom
Executing on marketing and media with community with influencers and outlets
Going all in in every way on creating time, location, and financial freedom
Investing in countless teachers - with Herbalife Nutrition, Dani Johnson, Dave Ramsey, Brendon Burchard, Chalene Johnson, Rachel Hollis, Strategic Coach, Bo Eason to name a few
Creating community in each and every way online and live and growing exponentially
Full disclaimer: I am not yet financially free. Due to my prior thoughts, words and actions for years, I have circumstances that I am dealing with with debt. I will not lie to you and say any of this transformation was easy. However, I have fallen in love with the journey, who I am becoming, and how i serve.
