Hello Reader, When I decided to make more money so I could have the freedom to live the lifestyle of my dreams, I realized I wasn't willing to do what it took to have this. Like:
I wanted to get rich quickly and easily. Money had always come easily to me when I was growing up. But as an adult, my financial situation was dramatically different. You may have heard my story about getting into massive debt, losing my job, and having no income while having a family to support. I was arrogant too. Sometimes our accomplishments in school and at work make it even harder for us to accept we suck at mastering our money. I mean, how hard can it be to understand that 1 + 1 = 2? What I didn't know was that money isn't just 1 + 1 = 2. Often, it can't even be boiled down into a simple equation. Money is loaded with our stories, past events, beliefs, drama, fears, uncertainties, and insecurities. It wasn't until I understood my relationship with money and the beliefs and stories driving my actions around money that I could take concrete actions to change that relationship and improve my financial situation. If you want to learn how to master your money, your first step is to master your relationship with money. If this is something you want to learn about yourself, then come to my workshop, 'Financial Confidence for Women' happening this Thursday, 4 April, at 8 PM GMT+8. See you soon. Sharon |

$1k/month isn’t life-changing money. But it’s transformational. It’s proof that the skills and experience you already have are enough to start, without quitting your job, without burning out, without a five-year plan. New here? Start with the worksheet "What's your $1k skill?" Download it here.
Most people are taught to build their lives around one source of income. Go to school. Get a good job. Work hard. Stay loyal. And everything will work out. I believed that too. Then life taught me otherwise. My husband and I shut down a business and were left with a six-figure debt. I returned to corporate life to recover. Shortly after, I was laid off while I was the sole provider for my family. That experience changed how I think about work forever. Not because jobs are bad. I've spent...
