S3E3 Manifesting VS Magical Thinking : Designing Your Dream Life.

In this episode, I dive deep into the intersection of money mindset and practical financial knowledge, emphasizing the importance of both in achieving financial success. As I embark on this solo journey, I share my thoughts on the prevalent discussions around money mindset and the often-overlooked practical aspects of managing finances.

I begin by highlighting the necessity of understanding how money works in order to master our mindset. It's not enough to rely solely on affirmations or positive thinking, we need to equip ourselves with practical knowledge to truly feel financially secure. I address the overwhelming presence of financial gurus and the narratives that often perpetuate feelings of inadequacy, particularly among women and marginalized groups.

Throughout the episode, I stress that many of us are conditioned to believe we are not good with money, which can lead to self-sabotage and imposter syndrome. I encourage listeners to take control of their financial narratives by examining their spending habits and aligning them with their true values. By conducting a "money makeover," we can identify unnecessary expenses and make conscious choices that empower us.

I also delve into the concept of manifesting and how it plays a crucial role in creating wealth. I share practical steps for setting clear intentions and visualizing our goals, while also addressing the fears and limiting beliefs that may hold us back. I emphasize the importance of trusting the process and letting go of the need to control the "how" and "when" of our financial journeys.

As I recount my personal experiences, including my journey to acquiring an investment property, I illustrate how visualization and gratitude can transform our relationship with money. I encourage listeners to embrace their fears, take action, and recognize that mistakes are part of the learning process.

In closing, I invite my audience to reflect on their fears and what they are grateful for, urging them to ponder these questions in the days to come. I promise to provide additional resources, including a blog post on the five steps to manifesting the life of their dreams.

Thank you for joining me on this enlightening exploration of money mindset and practical financial management. I can't wait to share our next exciting interview with you soon! Enjoy the journey!
