Reader,
Mastering money is simple.
5 simple principles to be wealthy and financially free.
Right?
Nah.
Most people are struggling with most, if not all of these ‘simple’ principles.
That’s why most people aren’t financially free.
You know why?
The process of executing these 5 principles is fraught with strong emotions that pull, push, or keep us stuck.
How many people stick with tracking what they make and spend?
How many people are stuck spending more than they make?
How many people don’t have surplus savings to deal with emergencies?
How many people still have any surplus left after taking care of everything they need to live to still invest?
How many people leave their investment alone to compound over decades instead of feeling compelled to touch it to make a quick buck?
Yup.
Money is totally emotional.
Mastering money is simple, but far from easy.
Until you get a handle on those emotions
that make you do things you know you shouldn’t with your money
but still can’t seem to help it.
Calming yourself during the process of implementing these 5 simple principles as you go through life,
is how you can finally be a master of your money, rather than a slave to it.
The first step to getting a handle on how you feel about money is to notice what those sensations feel like.
The easiest way to do this is to pay attention to where in your body it shows up.
Then name it and give it a color, texture, or smell.
Emotions are intangible, giving them form helps us wrap our heads around it.
Now that you can see it, we can deal with it.
To release its hold on you, you have to change the way you relate to it.
This is what I help women do.

Reader, It's 9.17pm on Sunday as I'm writing this newsletter that I should have sent by 9am today. And I really didn't feel like doing this when it's almost my bedtime for an early morning start tomorrow at 4.45am. Then I remind myself - this effort is the work that's building my dream. One brick at a time. One email at a time. So here we are! Today's topic is about owning your story. Because your story has value. All the decisions you made, the actions you took, the ups and downs - they all...
Reader, Half of my week has been spent lying in bed, exhausted from what my doctor said was a particularly fierce, mutated flu virus that's been circulating. I hardly ever get sick. Whenever I do, I take it as a sign from the universe to slow down and rest because my default mode is to always be on the go. But it still didn't stop me from recording a podcast episode this week on the topic of showing up consistently! It might be my shortest episode yet (<10 minutes). Having the time to ponder...
Reader, I had a very big, pleasant surprise this week. A heavyweight from LinkedIn, Niharikaa Kaur Sodhi DM-ed me to come on my podcast! I reached out to her last year when I relaunched my podcast inviting her to be a guest. She accepted at first, then postponed it because it wasn’t a good time for her. I thought she probably changed her mind after realizing what a nobody I am. This is the kind of negative self-talk that goes on in my mind - it's a daily practice to neutralize it's impact on...
