Hi angels 💸✨
This week’s episode is about money, which is already enough to make everyone mildly uncomfortable. (TBH I do get a little emotional at one point, fair warning!!)
It’s the Money Alignment Edit, and before you panic, no, I’m not about to tell you to open seven bank accounts or suddenly become an expert on Roth IRAs. That is not my ministry.
This episode explores the emotional connection you have with money.
Beliefs that impact your confidence, your dating life, your self-worth, and your ability to relax, even when things are technically “fine.”
BC like… right now? Things are genuinely tight for a lot of people. FOR REAL. And it doesn’t mean you’re failing or behind or doing life wrong. The economy is changing rapidly, and it’s destabilizing entire industries!!!
So why would you let this wobbly period define your self-worth?
The core shift I talk about in this episode — the one that changed everything for me — is taking money off the pedestal.
When money becomes your primary source of safety or self-worth, every fluctuation feels personal. A slow month feels like a personality flaw. Getting passed up for promo sends you into a spiral. Your nervous system stays on edge even when you’re doing “okay.”
This Alignment Edit is about expansion, permission, and regulation, but doing that with money takes a little more than just a new habit. It takes some interrogation followed by serious integration, I fear!!!
So if you want to go a little deeper after listening, here are the journal prompts I recommend. Don’t do them all at once. Light a candle (your most expensive one, maybe?). Romanticize it!!!! And you’ll be on your way to feeling way more in control.
💸 The Money Alignment Edit Journal Prompts
1. Taking money off the pedestal
When money feels tight, what do I make that mean about me?
Where did I learn that money = safety?
If money were a tool, not a verdict, how would I treat it differently?
2. Net worth vs self-worth
How does my self-talk change when I’m earning more vs less?
Who benefits when I tie my worth to productivity?
What would it feel like if my worth stayed constant across seasons?
3. Overworking to feel secure
Where am I over-functioning to “deserve” safety?
What emotional jobs am I asking money to do for me?
What would safety look like without exhaustion attached?
4. Wanting more (without guilt)
What do I want financially that I’ve been embarrassed to admit?
Whose voice do I hear when I judge myself for wanting more?
What would change if I allowed myself to want cleanly?
5. Judgment & comparison
Who do I judge financially?
What am I afraid people would say if I had more?
Where might judgment be keeping me small or quiet?
6. Greed vs capacity
What did I learn about “rich people” growing up?
How do I actually behave when I have more resources?
What kind of woman do I want to be resourced enough to be?
7. Making more money
Where am I undercharging or overgiving?
What do people already come to me for?
What would shift if I expected to be compensated fairly?
If there’s one thing I want you to walk away with, it’s that you don’t need to punish yourself into abundance or prove your worth to earn safety.
And you don’t need to make money a moral issue anymore. You’re allowed to want more!
And yes — you’re allowed to decide that you’re going to be a wealthy woman and a grounded, generous one.
Hope you love this episode — drop me a comment if you liked it, share it with your fellow Ambitious Material Girls, and remember, you’re too smart to not love yourself <3
