REFLECTIONS ON LIFE AND WHAT IT MEANS TO LIVE FULLY…

Recently, I’ve been thinking a lot about my relationship with money.

Not the practical side — but the emotional and psychological side.

Reading How to Be a Badass at Making Money by Jen Sincero* helped me see that money is often less about strategy and more about belief.

What I appreciated most about this book is the depth of the journaling work. It doesn’t just motivate you — it asks you to sit down and examine your limiting beliefs, your inherited money stories, and the subconscious fears that still shape your decisions.

For someone who loves journaling, this felt practical and powerful.

Exercises like rewriting limiting beliefs, creating money mantras, or describing a “day in the life” of your financially expanded self are not about fantasy. They are about identity. They force you to clarify what you really want — and what still scares you.

To me, this is self-leadership.

Self-leadership means noticing where you are still operating from old conditioning.
It means choosing expansion instead of comfort.
It means allowing yourself to want more without guilt.

This year, I’m intentionally repairing my relationship with money. Not by chasing numbers — but by doing the inner work.

Because financial expansion begins with internal expansion.
And writing is where that work starts.

If you feel called to reflect, you might ask yourself:

• What is one belief about money that I’ve never questioned — but may no longer be true for me?
• Where am I playing small financially, even though I know I’m capable of more?
• If I fully trusted my worth, what would I change about the way I earn, charge, or receive?

Sometimes the real shift doesn’t start in your bank account.

It starts in your journal.
