Mission-oriented or Money-oriented?

Published over 1 year ago • 1 min read

Hello Reader,

Someone shared on LinkedIn recently that she didn't want to continue growing her business.
Growing her company would have meant she had to get into a competitive headspace.
She said it would lead her to become money-oriented.
And she wanted to be mission-oriented instead.

Society has conditioned us to believe if you're money-oriented, you can't be mission-oriented, and vice versa.

But why do you have to be either one or the other?
Why not be both money-oriented and mission-oriented?
Being both money and mission-oriented enables you to:

  • lift others,
  • expand your experiences,
  • give your family a better life,
  • live comfortably, even luxuriously,
  • make an impact in your community,

What's wrong with that?

You need to be money-oriented so that you can be mission-oriented -
the more money you make, the bigger the impact you can have.

I used to be conflicted because I desired to be financially successful.
On the one hand, I wanted to make as much money as I possibly could.
On the other hand, I felt bad and guilty, as if by making more money I'd become one of those greedy, arrogant show-offs.

But I realized these were just old stories and beliefs I grew up with.

I could rewrite my money stories and beliefs to make financial success a good thing.

This inner transformation wasn't easy and it didn't happen overnight.
It began when I took the first step to be brave and look within myself.
The good, bad, and even ugly ways I behaved around money.

I was open to seeing all my hidden, secret stories about money I'd collected over the years.
Then I decided to tell myself different stories and hold new beliefs about money.

Stories and beliefs that would help me achieve all my dreams and goals,
and be the kind of person I wanted to be -
generous, loving, free, and at peace.

This is why I'm passionate about helping women uncover their deep, inner relationships and stories with money.

Doing this inner work can change your life.

Are your money stories and beliefs serving you or preventing you from reaching your financial goals?

Hi Reader, If you’ve ever thought about starting your own business or you’ve already begun, chances are you’ve met these fears head-on: Doubt: Will this even work? Lack: What if I can’t make enough money? Judgment: What will people think of me? I’ve been there too. As a working mom with a demanding job and family responsibilities, I often wondered if I had what it took. Here’s the truth I’ve learned: Building a business is less about the *perfect* strategy and more about who you’re becoming...

Hello Reader, Six years ago, at my dad’s wake, I kept hearing his voice ask me a single, haunting question: 'What will your legacy be?' That question changed the trajectory of my life. Two weeks later, I incorporated my business - not because I had it all figured out, but because I didn’t want fear to dictate my future. Today I honor my dad's 6th death anniversary with this week’s podcast, From Grief to Growth: How My Dad’s Words Shape My Business and how he continues to guide me. I share:...

Hello Reader, Ever set a big goal, then life got in the way?The sick kid. The late nights at work. The weekend that disappeared in errands. That used to throw me completely off. I’d feel like I 'failed' and wonder if I’d ever make my business work. Until I discovered the secret: systems. Systems are what keep me moving, even when everything else falls apart. My morning routine sets the tone for the day. My evening reflection pulls out lessons (even from tough days). My weekend batching gets...
