E123:
Your relationship with money dictates your decision making process and your mood so it’s important for any creative or business owner to manage. I’ve been unhealthy and healthy with my perspective on money in many different ways over my life transitions. When you don’t have a lot sometimes it comes out of anger because you can’t get what you need at the time, when you have more sometimes it comes from still not wanting to spend it and more importantly not spending it on the right things or things that fill your cup. On this episode we talk about some things to look out for that may be unhealthy ways of looking at what money is and it’s purpose and talk through some ways to manage a better relationship with it. Money is an energy and a vehicle but nothing more. Everything else we develop in our world around it on our journey is something different. Let’s start cultivating a great relationship on what money really boils down to so we can make the best decisions on our mission and get the biggest impact from life.
