#6 MONEY FREEDOM: Monetizing Your Authentic Brilliance

SUZIE SANDOVAL

"When we do what we are meant to do, money comes to us, doors open for us, we feel useful, and the work we do feels like play to us."

~ Julia Cameron, The Artist's Way

HOW WOULD YOU RATE YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH MONEY

(0 = I don’t have one, 10 = Epic)

Are you open to clearing hidden beliefs that are sabotaging your relationship with money?

THE MAGIC OF MONEY: WHEN IT SHOWS UP OUT OF THE BLUE

One of my most favorite and memorable ways I first learned how to tune into the my Money Freedom Flow, was in a workshop facilitated by my friend, Shannon Kaiser, Best Selling Author, Travel Writer and Founder of Play With The World.

Shannon Kaiser is an inspirational author, speaker, travel writer, teacher and life coach who left her successful career in advertising several years ago to follow her heart and be a writer. She is the bestselling author of Find Your Happy, an Inspirational Guide to Loving Life to its Fullest, and a six-time contributing author to Chicken Soup for The Soul.

During one of her workshop activities she taught us how to develop a child-like wonder view with our relationship with money. Prior to this prosperity workshop Shannon hid money throughout the venue. She then set a timer during her presentation and encouraged us to go play and find money. And the money we found we got to keep! Bonus!

It was such a delightful and positive memorable experience with money that it created a new mental shift for me. At any time, I could tap into the memory of feeling the delight of finding money and be reminded that money really can show up in surprisingly, new unexpected ways.

Too often we are complaining about not having enough money or stressing about how to pay our bills on time and trying to figure out how to allocate the money we do have to get the most out of it. Too often we're reliving the experience of feeling like there isn't enough to go around. These are all sources of money stress, worry, fears and anxieties and contribute to money clutter.

WHAT IS MONEY CLUTTER

  • Spending money unconsciously and in ways that are out of alignment with your values.

  • Feeling guilty about your spending habits.

  • Focusing on not having enough money.

  • Equating money to your self worth.

  • High stress is triggered when thinking about money.

  • Hoarding money as a fear mechanism to avoid losing it.

  • Drowning in Debt, feeling imbalanced with your income and expenses.

  • Not paying bills on time or honoring money service contracts.

HOW DOES MONEY CLUTTER MANIFEST?

  • Chasing "wants" through spending habits

  • Reactive vs proactive spending

  • Spending money (emotionally) when you don't have it

  • Buying things you already have but can't find

  • Debt, incoming unexpected bills

  • Lacking a budget or money management system

  • Money clutter manifests into physical clutter reflecting the money spent on non-essentials

WHO EXPERIENCES MONEY CLUTTER?

People who:

  • are living in survival mentalities, a inner world of not enough-ness.

  • are lacking positive money beliefs, skills and habits.

  • work extremely hard and receive little in return.

  • spend frivolously, shopaholics.

WHAT'S YOUR MONEY STORY?

I NEED MONEY

I'M GENERATING MONEY FREEDOM

I'M FIGHTING TO MAKE MONEY

“Before you start feeling bad about yourself for your debt, this would be a good moment to remind yourself that money doesn't exist--it's just a system of value exchange. That's it. Pure and simple. So, if you have debt, you've received value and you've not given the equivalent value back to the particular party in the exchange yet. That's all it means. It doesn't mean you're a bad person. It doesn't mean you're a screwup. You're not hopeless. You're not a mess. You simply have more value to give.” 

~ Kate Northrup, Money, A Love Story: Untangling Your Finances, Creating the Life You Really Want, and Living Your Purpose

WHAT'S YOUR MONEY LOVE STORY?

Take some time and begin assessing your story and beliefs around money.

These questions will allow for limited beliefs to arise, contemplate and release.

  • What is your earliest memory about money?

  • What were you taught about money?

  • Describe significant money related events in your life.

  • If money was a person how would you describe your relationship with it?

  • I'd have more money if...

  • Money equals...

  • If I could afford it, I'd...

  • I'm afraid that if I had money I would...

  • In order to have more money I need to...

  • Being financially stressed teaches me...

  • If I had money freedom, I'd...

REFRAMING LIMITED BELIEFS ABOUT MONEY

Notice the limited beliefs that arise from your money story. Make a list of your limited beliefs so you can begin reframing them. Here are some examples to get you started.

  • Limiting belief: I can barely pay my bills.

Reframe Example: I am grateful for having money to pay my bills. I'm learning how to strategize and resource my money to make the most out of what I'm working with. I am being reminded to trust money will be here when I need it.

  • Limiting belief: I work so hard and it isn’t enough.

Reframe Example: I am learning valuable lessons about what really matters to me in life and how to enjoy life without spending money unconsciously. I am practicing to spend money in ways that align with my values.

  • Limiting belief: Just when I start to have extra money come in, an unexpected expense arises.

Reframe Example: I'm learning humility, faith, patience, and trust in my money freedom journey. I value things even more so when I have to be patient. I’m becoming a better giver of money. I am also learning the importance of delayed gratification in order to save money for longer term payoffs.

  • Limiting belief: I can't take a vacation because I can't afford to.

Reframe Example: I'm learning how to spend my time in ways that feel like I’m on vacation! I understand experiences are more valuable than things.

WHAT ENERGY ARE WE PUTTING OUT ABOUT MONEY?

Human beings are magnets and power sources of energy. How you interact with money really starts with the energy you radiate out. The key question then isn't "how do I make more money?" but "what energy am I putting out about money?"

The energy money brings to its relationship with you will be a perfect reflection of your most deeply held beliefs on prosperity and abundance.

A lack of money is typically associated with thoughts of scarcity. These cause you to unconsciously behave in ways that perpetuate scarcity. For example, did you pursue a career that promised money or one that allowed the expression of your passions and desires? Choosing a career guided purely by financial goals instead of purpose is an act of scarcity, not abundance.

Why do you want more money? Do you desire it so you can express yourself more and add to the lives of others or is it so you can hoard it and increase your sense of security? Different motivations bring a different energy to your relationship with money and affect your ability to manifest more of it.

To cultivate the prosperity mindset, ensure the energy you give to money is divine love.

The Law of Giving & Receiving By The Deepak Chopra Center

The universe operates through dynamic exchange...giving and receiving are different aspects of the flow of energy in the universe. And in our willingness to give that which we seek, we keep the abundance of the universe circulating in our lives.

I will put the Law of Giving and Receiving into effect by making a commitment

to take the following steps:

  1. Wherever I go, and whomever I encounter, I will bring them a gift. The gift may be a compliment, a flower, or a prayer. Today, I will give something to everyone I come into contact with, and so I will begin the process of circulating joy, wealth, and affluence in my life and in the lives of others.

  2. Today I will gratefully receive all the gifts that life has to offer me. I will receive the gifts of nature: sunlight, the sound of birds singing, spring showers, or the first snow of winter. I will also be open to receiving from others, whether it be in the form of a material gift, money, a compliment, or a prayer.

  3. I will make a commitment to keep wealth circulating in my life by giving and receiving life’s most precious gifts: the gifts of caring, affection, appreciation, and love. Each time I meet someone, I will silently wish them happiness, joy, and laughter.

IMAGINING YOUR HIGHEST MONEY FREEDOM POTENTIALS

"Wealth is the ability to fully experience life."

~Henry David Thoreau

What if...

  • you always had more than enough money for what matters in your life

  • money always showed up when you needed it the most

  • your money allowed you to invest in what you enjoy

  • money allowed you to say no to doing things you don't want to do

  • money shows up in new surprising ways every day

  • you could change someone's life with your money mindsets and abundance embodiment practices

  • What if you knew you were being given (no strings attached) 1 billion dollars in 30 days?

  • What would you do between now and 30 days?

  • How would you begin to spend your 1 billion dollars?

  • How would you receive the most joy from this 1 billion dollars?

GENERATING MONEY EXPONENTIALLY

"When you make a difference with what you have, it expands."

~ Lynne Twist, The Soul Of Money

The Universe won’t provide you with more until you show that you’re already doing great with what you’ve got. Create a strong, loving container paying loving attention to the money we already have is the first step to making more of it.

The first step is NOT, in fact, any of the following: going out there and hustling more, working more hours, pouring all of your creative fuel into a new business, or proving to your boss or your clients that you deserve a raise. What a relief!

The first step is simply paying attention to what you already have in a loving way.

SIMPLY WAYS TO LOVE WHAT YOU HAVE

  1. Check your bank account balance every morning and give some gratitude for what you’ve got.

  2. Line up all the bills in your wallet in numerical order, with the Presidents all facing the same direction (ideally toward you when you pull out a bill).

  3. Track your income in a way that feels good to you.

CREATING A SACRED SPACE OF PROSPERITY

1. Make a list of Money Freedom Words. Write them down or print a list of words that light you up and connect you with feeling wealthy and abundant. Place this list somewhere you will see daily.

From working with Mother Theresa in Calcutta to the refugee camps in Ethiopia and the threatened rain forests of the Amazon, as well as guiding the philanthropy of some of the world’s wealthiest families, Lynne’s on-the-ground work has brought her a deep understanding of people’s relationship with money. Her breadth of knowledge and experience has led to profound insights about the social tapestry of the world, and the historical landscapes of the times we are living in.
