In this week's episode of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast, Lesley Thomas explored the Currency of Confidence and its impact on our financial reality. Lesley delved into the idea that we are all born with innate confidence, yet we often lose it as we grow older. The importance of language and how it can either limit or empower our confidence was discussed, along with the significance of connecting with our emotions. Share your thoughts on how you've overcome self-doubt and restored confidence in your money story! Keep listening, keep learning, and keep growing.

Key Takeaways

  • We are all born with innate confidence. As babies, we fearlessly explore the world and pursue our desires without hesitations. It's crucial to reflect on the confidence we once had and understand how external influences may have dampened it over time.
  • Language limiters, such as "I'll do it later" or "It's too late now," only serve to keep us stuck in our comfort zones. Recognising and abandoning these excuses is the first step toward regaining the confidence needed to pursue our financial and personal goals.
  • Connect with your goals on an emotional level to align your actions with what you truly desire. Imagine achieving your financial milestones or personal aspirations. Embrace the feelings and visualise the success, as this emotional connection can propel you forward and build the confidence needed to take necessary steps.

Welcome to another episode of the Let's Talk Money and More Podcast with your host, Lesley Thomas. In today's solo episode, we will delve into the intriguing topic of financial identity. Our financial identity shapes our relationship with money and influences our journey towards building wealth. We all have different identities, from being a parent to a business owner, but today, we'll focus on understanding our financial identity.

Join me as we explore the core elements that make up our financial identity, the powerful role beliefs play in shaping our financial identity and how our money story influences our overall financial well-being. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let's dive deep into the fascinating topic of financial identity.

Key Takeaways

  • Our financial identity comprises our beliefs, values, attitudes, and behaviours related to money. By recognising and empowering our financial identity, we can make intentional and prosperous financial choices.
  • Financial identity is distinct from financial status and wealth. While financial status refers to our current financial situation, wealth is the accumulation of assets and resources. It's crucial not to confuse these aspects as they each play a unique role in shaping our financial well-being.
  • Our beliefs are the foundation of our financial identity and influence our financial actions. By examining our money story, the narrative we've constructed about money based on our experiences, upbringing, and beliefs, we can rewrite it to align better with our financial goals and values.

Welcome to another solo episode of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast with me, your host, Lesley Thomas. Today, I’m going to talk about a topic that many parents can relate to: teaching your children about financial literacy. I understand that money can be a sensitive subject, and if you're unsure about your own financial knowledge, you're not alone. The lack of financial education in schools has left many adults feeling ill-equipped to pass on this important knowledge to their children. But fear not, because today I’ll discuss how you can feel confident teaching your child about money, regardless of your own background. From building your own financial literacy to creating an open and comfortable environment for discussions, we'll cover it all. So stay tuned and get ready to share the journey of financial literacy with your children. Let's dive in!

Key Takeaways

  • Take the time to build your financial knowledge. There are numerous resources available, from books to online courses, that can help you get started. Remember, you don't have to be a financial expert to teach your child about money; you just need to be willing to learn and share your own journey.
  • Create an open and comfortable environment. Start age-appropriate discussions about saving, spending, and sharing with your young children. As they grow, gradually introduce more complex topics like budgeting and investing. Remember, financial literacy is a lifelong journey, and your child will learn at their own pace.
  • Lead by example. Children learn more from what we do than what we say. Be transparent about your financial decisions, set goals as a family, and show responsible money management. By modelling good behaviour, you can instil responsible financial habits in your child.

In this latest solo episode of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast, Lesley Thomas explores the topic of visibility and its importance in business success in today's digital age. Lesley discusses multiple strategies to become known in your industry, including using social media, pursuing opportunities to speak or write as a guest, and collaborating with successful individuals.

Lesley delves into how extending one's comfort zone can help expand further, and how holding back from self-promotion may be tied to a lack of self-worth. Lesley provides tips on cultivating a healthy money mindset, recognising limiting beliefs and questioning them with personal accomplishments. Great advice on taking steps to become more visible and why it's important to consider who may not benefit from your lack of visibility awaits you on this episode. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Highlights

• Showcase your expertise. Make use of social media to share high-quality content and engage with your audience, or aim for opportunities to expand your reach as a guest speaker or writer.

• Expand your comfort zone. Don’t let resistance and anxiety hold you back. Growth happens outside of your comfort zone, so start small and gradually increase your exposure.

• Challenge limiting beliefs. Visibility can be a powerful tool, even if you're not physically present in a room. Recognise and challenge any beliefs or doubts you may have around your self-worth, money, or success to achieve your goals.

Parents with money may need to teach their kids about scarcity and give them the opportunity to learn how to budget by not always providing them with money

Teaching kids to budget by giving them a small allowance or making them work for their money can be a better way to show the importance of budgeting than just giving lectures or guidance

Welcome to this week's episode of the podcast, where we dive into an exciting guest conversation that has everyone talking: AI. Our guest, Dr. jur. Can Ansay, hails from Hamburg, Germany, and has a fascinating background. Growing up with a law professor and doctor as parents, he developed an early passion for software and coding. As the 1990s unfolded, he found himself working as a web designer alongside his law studies until the dotcom bubble burst.

In 2012, a life-changing event led him to leave his legal career behind. Unable to find a diagnosis for his symptoms, he stumbled upon an online symptom checker powered by artificial intelligence, which provided an immediate and accurate diagnosis for free. Inspired by this experience, Dr. jur. Can Ansay collaborated with programmers to create his own explainable AI-driven symptom checker. Get ready for an intriguing exploration into the world of AI as we delve into this captivating conversation.

Key Takeaways

• As the AI revolution unfolds, startups have the power to reshape industries, challenge monopolies, and put the control back into the hands of users.

• AI developments have profound implications for social interactions.

• While AI often yields correct and helpful results, the lack of explainability can be a concern, especially in critical fields like healthcare.

• While AI brings enormous potential, a few concerns persist. The rise of deep fakes and the spread of fake news are areas where AI can be misused, leading to wrong political opinions and legal complexities

Welcome to the lates episode of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast. In this week’s episode 89, I chat with the one and only Shaa Wasmund MBE. With over 20 years of experience building and exiting multiple businesses, Shaa is a fierce advocate for financial empowerment and helping others fulfil their greatest human potential, no matter their background. From being the youngest and only licensed female boxing manager in the world to setting up her own PR agency with Sir James Dyson as her first client, Shaa's entrepreneurial spirit and drive is truly remarkable. Not only has she been named one of the UK's Top 20 Most Influential Entrepreneurs by The Sunday Times and one of the 'Most Influential Women in the UK' by the Institute of Directors, but she's also a bestselling author of four straight-talking books that have sold hundreds of thousands of copies worldwide. So, if you're ready to be inspired and motivated to take action towards your dreams and aspirations, tune in to this episode with Lesley Thomas and Shaa Wasmund MBE.

  • Our money stories can be changed, and limiting beliefs around money can still exist at any level of wealth.
  • Encouraging children to budget and plan for their future is a valuable lesson that can set them up for success.
  • Developing a healthy relationship with money comes from within and starts with self-belief and self-worth.

Welcome to the latest episode of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast where I answer a question posed by a member of my Facebook Community ‘Where Money goes Mindset Grow’, who asked how can she remove her money challenge, when asking for money she is owned, or for sponsorship for a good cause. Which truthfully, can be a difficult task. So in this episode, I will provide you with some practical tips to help you become more confident and successful in your money conversations. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

  • Detach any sense of asking for money from your self-worth and focus on the fact that you are asking for what is rightfully yours or for a good cause.
  • Be fully prepared before you ask for money by planning ahead and visualizing a positive outcome to eliminate nerves.
  • Be clear and concise with your request to help the other person know exactly what is required of them.
  • Focus on positive outcomes rather than potential rejection when asking for money and model polite behavior expressing gratitude.
  • Rehearse difficult money conversations to gain confidence and remember that the more money conversations you have, the more comfortable you will be talking about money.

In this latest episode of Let's Talk Money and More Podcast, I chat with Gavin Johnson, the founder of Solus Financial Planning. With over 30 years of experience as a Certified Financial Planner, Gavin realised early on that there was a different way of providing financial advice - one that prioritises understanding each client and their future plans.

As a Fellow of the Personal Finance Society, Gavin has honed his expertise in running his own practice and providing independent advice. In 2022, he decided to go solo again, focusing on helping those who have found themselves alone through bereavement or relationship breakdown, a situation he understands all too well from his own experience. Gavin's background and deep understanding of his clients' needs have earned him a strong reputation for personalised and highly tailored financial planning that brings stability during uncertain times. Tune in to learn more from this seasoned financial expert on how to navigate your financial journey with confidence.

Key Takeaways

  • Starting a business requires careful planning and realistic expectations. It's important to understand that building a successful business takes time and effort.
  • Financial education is lacking in our education system. Many people come out of college or university without a basic understanding of how finances work in the real world. As a financial planner, it's important to educate clients in simple, easy-to-understand terms to help them make informed financial decisions.
  • As a financial planner, create a safe and non-judgmental environment for your clients to ask questions and seek clarification. Empathy and understanding can go a long way in helping your clients feel more comfortable discussing their financial concerns.
  • Check the credentials of financial advisers or professionals recommended to you, and make sure they are registered with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and have a valid FCA number.

In this solo episode # 86 of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast, with me your host Lesley Thomas, I discuss about one of the most important things that we can do for our children and that is to help them develop a positive money mindset. As parents, we want nothing but the best for our children.

Money is an important part of life and understanding how to manage it is critical to long-term success and happiness. Unfortunately, many children today grow up without a positive view of money. They see it as a source of stress, difficulty, or even taboo.

But with your help, you can help your children develop a positive attitude toward money that will serve them well for years to come. In this episode I discuss how.

Key Takeaways

  • By teaching children to view money as a necessary skill to learn about from a young age can help them develop a solid foundation for good decision making that will serve them well in the long term.
  • Instilling a positive money mindset in children is crucial for their financial well-being.
  • Just like adults, children need to be allowed to make mistakes and learn from them. Learning from mistakes can help children develop a better understanding of budgeting, saving, and spending wisely.
  • As children grow older, it's important to provide them with opportunities to manage their own money.
  • Teaching children about money is an ongoing process that requires patience, intention, and commitment.

In this solo episode 84 of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast, I talk about how I’ve become a lot clearer on my vision and in doing so recognised that I have been playing small. Decluttering your environment can be a powerful tool in improving your money mindset. By letting go of things that no longer serve you, you can create space for what really matters and focus your energy on the things that will lead to greater success and fulfilment.

Key Takeaways

  • Shiny object syndrome can lead to overspending and cluttered thinking.
  • A clear physical environment can help create a clear and focused mindset, which can allow for more creativity.
  • By being more intentional, evaluating your spending and keep what only serves your needs can create a clearer money mindset. It helps you focus on what truly matters in your financial goals.
  • Taking a step back to evaluate what is really important to you can help you make better financial decisions.

In this latest episode of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast, I chat with Llewellyn, an award-winning musician whose name may not be familiar to most, but whose music has likely reached millions. Llewellyn is a prolific composer of sleep and relaxation music that has helped countless people drift off to dreamland. With over a million albums sold worldwide and millions of streams on digital platforms like Spotify and YouTube, he has mastered a niche in providing heavenly music that uplifts and transforms its listeners to other realms of wonder, magic, and relaxation.

But who is the man behind the music? In this episode, we delve into Llewellyn's money story, his childhood and upbringing, his personal experience about the ups and downs of the music industry and a whole lot more.

This week’s episode is definitely an inspiring and insightful one! Join us as we explore how Llewellyn's journey proves that success doesn't always require a pop star persona, but rather a willingness to set aside ego and embrace a life of passion and purpose. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

  • The music industry can be very fickle, and success can be fleeting. Financial struggles are common, even for those who have had a taste of success.
  • Sometimes, happiness and fulfilment can be found in unexpected places. Llewellyn found love and a sense of purpose outside of the music industry, and that gave him the strength to keep going even when things got tough.
  • Creativity and resourcefulness can help you find solutions to difficult situations. And overcoming adversity requires persistence and determination.
  • Recognition and fame aren't everything. Llewellyn has learned to find satisfaction in the fact that his music is fulfilling its purpose and bringing enjoyment to people's lives.
  • It is important to be grateful for what you have. Despite the challenges Llewellyn faced, Llewellyn's father reminded him to be thankful for the opportunities he had and to work hard to make the most of them.

In this latest solo episode 82 of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast, I talk about why some business owners are under-earning and the effect it will be having, not just on their earnings potential. Under-earning often happens as a result of not valuing you, and your results enough. When we fight for our limitations we get to keep them.

If you've ever felt like you deserve more than what you're currently earning, this episode is for you. So grab a cup of coffee, get comfortable, get a pen and your notes and let's dive in!

Key Takeaways

  • Underearning happens when someone earns less than their potential, despite their need or desire to earn more. It can be caused by low self-esteem, fear of success, or settling for less.
  • Underearning is not something to be ashamed of, but rather an opportunity to learn and earn more.
  • Underearning can impact every aspect of someone's life, including time, freedom, and the impact they can make for others.
  • Underearners are likely to feel trapped, unworthy, self-sabotage, and feel dependent on others. They can also feel limited by the number of opportunities available, fearful, unmotivated, and disconnected from the world.
  • By thinking about what is possible and taking intentional action, motivation kicks in to make it happen. This empowers individuals to start demonstrating the behaviours that will stop under earning and start looking at ways to make change.

In this solo episode of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast I talk about the importance of understanding our negative behaviours around money show up and understand:

• What thoughts follow this behaviour

• How does it make you feel/what emotions come up

• What action or reaction then takes place?

And to then understand the results of this behaviour. Are the results wanted or unwanted? Bringing the unconscious into the conscious, allows you to decide how you can move away from those negative behaviours, towards behaviours that support the results you want to see.

In addition, I will also take you through a method I use with my clients, the ADIOS framework say goodbye to limiting beliefs about money.

Key Takeaways

A is for awareness. It's becoming aware of what is happening for you, in terms of your relationship with money, and your money mindset.

D is for desire. It’s creating that real sense of desire to make a commitment to create change.

I is for information. It’s all about gathering the evidences you have you created for yourself. It’s the questions that you ask yourself with regards to your relationship with money.

O is for observation. It’s being really openly aware as to what is happening. You want to be aware of the evidence that you have created of you moving away from your old relationship with money and to understand what are those feelings

S is for system. It’s that little feedback loop so that you are always aware of when something might trigger you, and take you back a step.

In this latest episode of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast, I talk with Ian Anderson Gray, who is the founder of the Confident Live Marketing Academy and is the host of the Confident Live Marketing Podcast.

He helps entrepreneurs to level up their impact, authority and profits by using live video confidently. He's founder of Seriously Social - a blog focused on live video and social media tools. He’s an international speaker, trainer, teacher and consultant.

He has a passion for making the techno-babble of live video and social media marketing easy to understand. Ian is co-founder of Select Performers – a family run web agency. As well as being a geek, husband, and dad to two kids, Ian is also a professional singer and lives near Manchester in the UK.

Ian and I had a really fascinating conversation about his own money story, his money mindset, his passion and philosophy, and a whole lot more. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

It's important to talk about money and be able to feel comfortable talking about your success and sharing your success, so that people know the art of the possible.

Success can be and should be measured in different ways for different people.

In talking about money and how much one earns, frame it in a way that is going to be encouraging and inspiring for people.

Money loves a purpose. Money for money's sake doesn't really motivate people, it doesn't make people feel happy and satisfied.

Start to dream big dreams and write those dreams down. Having them up in your head isn't enough. You have to write them down first so your subconscious can actually see the connection between what’s in your head and reality.

This week’s solo episode has been inspired by something I recently read, ‘I trust the next chapter, because I know the author’…. How powerful is that!

What about you? Do you trust the author of your next chapter? If you feel that is a hard question to answer currently, please don't worry because there's lots of things that you can do to get there. Ask yourself, what needs to happen for you to trust in yourself? What needs to change for you to trust yourself? And what do you need to do to make that change?

Key Takeaways

Having faith in yourself is a powerful affirmation. Affirming that you fully trust what’s unfolding in your life because of self belief.

Positive mental attitude is a mindset. And just like any mindset, including our mindset around money, it is never won and done.

When you’ve done the inner work it creates an evidence and that evidence serves as proof that things work out.

Be kind to yourself to recognise it's a process. A process from which you will grow.

In this week’s solo episode #74 of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast, I am returning to the topic of pricing, because it’s an area many business owners struggle with. It was certainly an area that I used to struggle with too. Join me as I discuss the importance of talking about pricing with confidence. Enjoy!

Key Takeaways

  • People are hesitant to talk about pricing because it is somewhat tied up with their sense of self worth, self value, and self confidence.
  • Our prices are not about us. They are about the service and the results that we bring for our clients.
  • When we talk about our pricing with confidence, we are ensuring that our potential clients are feeling reassured about our product or service.
  • Getting really comfortable and confident about your pricing is the key to instilling that same level of confidence with your clients.
  • Talking about our pricing openly and honestly result to empowerment and excitement which lead to more sales.

In this week’s episode #73 of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast I am delighted to introduce you to another really interesting guest, Nicola Frampton. Nicola joined William Hill in 2010 as Director of Corporate Risk then Group Director of Customer Operations before becoming Managing Director of the UK Retail division in June 2014 during which time she led and implemented a number of major innovation and transformation projects.

She has extensive experience in risk management, assurance and corporate governance across a wide range of industries, having specialised in these areas of corporate activity at both William Hill and prior to that whilst at Deloitte.

Nicola is the Operations Director at Domino's Pizza UK and a Non-executive Director at Frasers Group.

In this episode Nicola shared her money story, the pivotal moments in her career, her experiences and learnings that have contributed to the kind of relationship with money she has today. Make sure to tune in, this episode is inspiring, insightful and a fascinating listen. Enjoy!

Key Takeaways

Our health and well being is wealth. Wealth is also about freedom. Money is an enabler and it gives us freedom choices, it allows us to support the future we want as well as the people who matter to us.

Wealth is available to everybody. Believe in that and hold on to it, plan and put action into place to create that wealth but also recognise that there isn’t one way to get there but several. Be intentional with the actions you are taking. Even more importantly, be aware of your limiting factors.

Money is emotive. And when we are in certain situations we respond to those emotions, have knee jerk reactions and make us feel a whole raft of different emotions.

Our relationship with money, how we spend, how we save, and utilise money can be very different to somebody else. That’s why it is important to have self awareness and deep understanding towards our relationship with money.

You are your greatest investment.

Believe in yourself and believe in your capability and accepting that it really is you who makes the choices about what you go for. Your integrity and authenticity builds relationship and trust with people. When you work hard and prove you are capable people will invest in you.

We are nearly at the half way month for January, the nights are long, the days short and there is a distinct lack of festive lights. This can be a tricky time to keep going with the new years resolutions you may have set, or the ambitious goals you decided for yourself and now your whole ability to focus on what you set out to do can start to feel a little less enthusiastic than how you felt when you first started. And that is completely normal.

In this solo episode I’ll be sharing you some goal setting tips that work for me and I hope that it can inspire and help you set out your purpose driven goals. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

Write down the intentions you have for the 12 months ahead. By writing down your intentions acts as an accountability tool. You can also write a letter to your future self, do it from the perspective of celebrating and congratulating yourself of the fact that you have achieved your goals for the year.

When we connect emotionally to our intentions and to the goals that we are setting, it is then that we create the real desire around what we're doing, and on why you were doing it. And it becomes something we want to move towards instead of trying to move away from.

Try to do new things. By discovering and trying something new moves you out of your comfort zone and allows you to see the art of possible.

Connect with yourself and vive yourself time to reflect. Ask yourself and answer with whole honesty – What am I doing? Why am I doing it? What is the result I want? And where are the gaps that stop me from getting what I want?

If you are feeling you're being pulled in all sorts of directions at the moment with regards to resolutions and goal setting, and words of the year, etc. What I would suggest right now is to just stop, take a deep breath, and just be you. Because when we are acting in complete integrity in who we are, then we have a much greater ability to work out what is right for us, and what isn't right for us.

As you set out your goals for the year, do it all in a position of gratitude. Recognise the opportunity to create more of what you want, to not judge and be kind to yourself in whatever point in your journey you find yourself at the moment. Just stop, take a deep breath and just be you. The best gift to give yourself is to be the best you that it's possible to be.

We are nearly at the half way month for January, the nights are long, the days short and there is a distinct lack of festive lights. This can be a tricky time to keep going with the new years resolutions you may have set, or the ambitious goals you decided for yourself and now your whole ability to focus on what you set out to do can start to feel a little less enthusiastic than how you felt when you first started. And that is completely normal.

In this solo episode I’ll be sharing you some goal setting tips that work for me and I hope that it can inspire and help you set out your purpose driven goals. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

Write down the intentions you have for the 12 months ahead. By writing down your intentions acts as an accountability tool. You can also write a letter to your future self, do it from the perspective of celebrating and congratulating yourself of the fact that you have achieved your goals for the year.

When we connect emotionally to our intentions and to the goals that we are setting, it is then that we create the real desire around what we're doing, and on why you were doing it. And it becomes something we want to move towards instead of trying to move away from.

Try to do new things. By discovering and trying something new moves you out of your comfort zone and allows you to see the art of possible.

Connect with yourself and vive yourself time to reflect. Ask yourself and answer with whole honesty – What am I doing? Why am I doing it? What is the result I want? And where are the gaps that stop me from getting what I want?

If you are feeling you're being pulled in all sorts of directions at the moment with regards to resolutions and goal setting, and words of the year, etc. What I would suggest right now is to just stop, take a deep breath, and just be you. Because when we are acting in complete integrity in who we are, then we have a much greater ability to work out what is right for us, and what isn't right for us.

As you set out your goals for the year, do it all in a position of gratitude. Recognise the opportunity to create more of what you want, to not judge and be kind to yourself in whatever point in your journey you find yourself at the moment. Just stop, take a deep breath and just be you. The best gift to give yourself is to be the best you that it's possible to be.

In today’s episode I welcomed David Charlton. David is a Sports Psychologist who helps athletes, coaches and teams of all levels, from the motivated and talented youngster up to the experienced professional who competes internationally. Typically, his clients are looking to perform more consistently in their chosen sport and deal with the pressures that they face better.

David supports them by developing their Mental Toughness using evidence based tools from sport and organisational psychology alongside personal insights. As well, as working in sport he also enjoys supporting senior leaders, entrepreneurs and business professionals to deal better with the pressures and stressors that they face in their lives and work.

Key Takeaways

Comparing yourself to others, being jealous to other people’s successes and feeling resentful traps you from really seeing and assessing the particular path you are in. These strong emotions hinder you from taking action to reach the next step.

Going through the process of self awareness is challenging, painful and uncomfortable. But when you break through, that is where change starts.

Even elite and successful sports people and successful entrepreneurs have to break down the boring, and simple things day in day out.

A lot of sports people tie their identify, their self value, and self worth to their performance and that is not a good combination. That’s why it’s important to find different avenues to do outside sports.

There are three basic psychological needs: autonomy, relatedness and competence.

In building a business, it’s okay to recognise that you don’t have to be good at everything, that it’s important to accept that strength cannot lie in all the fields. A good leader knows how to delegate. And by delegating you empower other people as well.

The best thing that you can do is charge based on the results you were bringing for your clients. Because those people who value what you're doing, they will do the work, they will get the results. And they'll thank you for the part that you play in helping them to get the results.

Here we are in that time between Christmas and New Year….an idea time perhaps to reflect on what has been, and look forward to all that is to come. In this solo episode I reflect on how the last 12 months has gone and here I share journal exercises which I hope you will find useful as the new year comes. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

A holistic exercise, create two columns labelling one for personal life and the other for business life. And from each perspective, reflect what has worked well and what has not worked well over the last 12 months. We tend to learn more from hard lessons, those things that haven't worked, than we do from the things that worked well. It’s important to consider what was learned from those things because it will allow us to be better and create better experiences moving forward.

Ask yourself, “Who do I need to become in order to grow the business in the way that I want to in 2023?” It’s all about stepping into the next version of ourselves as we grow and as we get older. Asking yourself important questions on a regular basis is vital.

Here’s a brilliant accountability tool – write to your future self and congratulate yourself on everything you are going to achieve for the next 12 months, it sets your intention for the year.

Set your financial goals for the year. Money loves a purpose. What is important is the emotional connection behind that financial goal. Because the goal is not the money. The money is just the enabler. What’s vital is the memories and experiences you create with the people that matter to you.

Here are some prompts from Tony Robbins which my friend Matt Tompsett introduced to me to which focus on the here and now. The morning power questions – What am I happy about now in my life? What am I excited about in my life now? What am I right about in my life now? What am I grateful about in my life now? What am I enjoying in my life right now? What am I committed to in my life right now? Who do I love? Who loves me? And the evening power questions – What have I given today? What did I learn today, and what will I investment in tomorrow?

So here we are just a few days before Christmas and I bring my Christmas gift to you, with the guest I have today. Kathleen Cameron is a Manifestation Queen, Success Coach, 7 figure entrepreneur and record breaking author. Since 2019, she has built a $20 million business and continues to share her knowledge, passion and expertise with everyone she connects with.

With her determination, unwavering faith and powers of manifestation, she has helped hundreds of thousands of people attract more love, money and success into their lives.

Kathleen is a mother of two wonderful daughters, graduated with two undergraduate degrees and a Master’s degree, has held high level executive position in healthcare and transferred her knowledge to so many in a way that brings everyone’s vibration up alongside hers. To be in Kathleen’s energy is just amazing, and I hope through the power of the airways, you get to all experience that energy with me today.

Key Takeaways

Investing in yourself through personal development and having a mentor will help you recognise what your limitations are and the beliefs that hold you back. Thus will allow you to take intentional actions to empower and catalyse change.

Having a burning desire for more means really wanting something that anchors you to see yourself differently and do something differently. And because you truly desiring something, you see that it is possible for you. That burning desire makes you take ownership, responsibility and willingness in that belief and take action to achieve it.

Our thoughts create our feelings, and they create our actions. Our body moves according to our thinking.

Real magic starts to happen when you see and believe in something outside of the intellectual mind and physical body, and that is called the spiritual plane.

Manifestations show if you have faith in it. And evidence of prosperity and abundance show up when you deeply and truly connect with your oneness.

Move into the creative plane, to the realm of the possible and ask yourself; how much better can my life get and how much more of that better am I going to allow in by focusing on it versus the worries, the fears, the doubts?

Think nothing but abundance and prosperity. It is getting out of judgment and moving into gratitude. It is being inspired instead of being hopeless. It is literally taking action with faith. Success is faith expressed in action. And always operate on a place of joy, love, gratitude and peace.

The energy that you put out the energy, and the energy that you are in, is what you get back.

Christmas is just around the corner. In this episode, I share my thoughts on how to have a great Christmas, where the focus is on the people’s presence and not the presents.

I've always been somebody who absolutely loves the festive season, and all that it has to offer. I cannot wait every year for the first of December to arrive so I can start to put up the decorations. Christmas to me is not about the presents. Yes, gifts are lovely to give and to receive. But to me Christmas has always been about the presence of those I love being around me and to me it is what makes the festive season so special.

Key Takeaways

Research has shown this year that, only 1 out of 7 items in the Black Friday sale were actually at a higher price for any length of time prior to the sale. Saving is only a saving if you intended to purchase the previously more expensive item anyway.

It's always important to question your decisions around money to actually be intentional about how you spend money, and not make decisions emotionally, irrationally, or out of a sense of misplaced guilt, or pressure.

Christmas is a time of year when we want everything to be perfect. And by having that expectation, we're setting ourselves up for a fall. But at the end of the day, It's not how much money you spend, or the presents you get your loved ones. But instead how much love, joy and memory making you can spread through your actions. It's a time to be with friends and family and to enjoy each other's company.

Make a Christmas commitment, something that you want to start doing now. Write it down on a piece of paper and place it in a prominent position on your Christmas tree. It will act as a reminder of the commitment you'll have made.

The most important thing in this season is the memories and the time spent together than what present was or wasn't bought.

In this last episode in this celebratory mini-series of the podcast, my guest is Charlie Mullins OBE.

Charlie is known as Britain's flushest tradesman and the celebrated founder of the celebrated Pimlico Plumbers. Last year, in search of new beginnings he sold his business for a cool £145m.

Now the man who was once a former business advisor to David Cameron and George Osborne, is a columnist in the Star newspaper and a talking head for broadcast media on business and political affairs.

Since selling his business, Charlie has invested in and become the chairman of Great British Radio - a radio station without any (bad) news bulletins designed to cheer up the nation with its roster of comedy, music and celebrity interviews. He has further expanded his property portfolio and invested in the musical career of his fiancée - the singer songwriter RaRa, who is about to release her debut album.

Key Takeaways

For Charlie, there is a good side and down side about making lots of money. Good, you can do what you want. The downside side, you can lose a lot friends and family.

It’s important to get apprenticeship at a very young age. We all learn from somebody and starting young is the best time to learn.

What helped Charlie transition from being a plumber to a successful business owner, was learning to employ the right people and delegating responsibilities correctly. It’s not easy to delegate, but it’s all part of making money and growing your business.

Another great tip Charlie shared is incentivise people that work for you. They’ll feel valued. They will value you, what they do, their clients, and the service that they're getting, which builds up the company reputation, and allows that whole circle to continue.

Money doesn't make make you. It only changes you if you allow it to change you.

It’s important to seek the evidence of what you want to achieve.

Opportunities are out there. You can’t expect to earn great money if you’re not putting yourself out there. Be visible and work hard, it’s one of the ingredients of being successful.

In this 6th in the celebratory mini-series of the podcast, my guest for this episode is Marvin Reid.

Marvin Reid, is an international Business Coach, Speaker, trainer, and consultant to blue-chip companies. After a long history working with enterprise organisations, he now has a passion for supporting SMEs. Marvin is an advisor for several start-ups and a Mentor for the NatWest Business Accelerator programme.

With over 20 years of experience in sales, marketing, branding and social media, Marvin has successfully grown businesses to more than 7 figures and has been involved in winning over £500 million pounds worth of business.

Via his company Volume 2, his commitment to business owners worldwide and his ‘no entrepreneur left behind policy’, has helped thousands of entrepreneurs across many sectors transform their businesses to achieve their desired vision and, in many cases, go beyond it.

Key Takeaways

When you’re younger you think that money is limited. But then as you get older, as you do more in business, you realise that there's there's money everywhere. It's just a case of building out a strategy to sort and make sure it finds its way to you.

For Marvin wealth means his family, connections, and relationships. Money is important, sure, but it’s not the be all and end all.

Money should be the enabler of all the dreams that you have in terms of creating a life that you are proud of and the life that you have no regrets. And it should be about focusing on the legacy that you leave behind, not in terms of a financial legacy, but more people remembering the things that you did, and the way you made them feel.

A lot of people drift along through life. But to be successful, you have to have a plan. And have a complete self awareness and be extremely aware of everything’s going on. You make one choice, left or right. Create a roadmap and clarify your vision.

You can have the best strategy in the world, or the best strategist present you with how to have the most successful business. But if you don't have the mindset to believe you can deliver on that strategy, the outcome will be what the outcome was meant to be, then you're never ever going to have that success.

You don't get confident because you have the right relationship with money, you get the right relationship with money, because you have self confidence.

Success is never going to be a linear one and never going to be an easy one. But if you keep plowing and keep plugging away at it, then you are going to get to where you are to where you want to in this journey of life.

But if you don't have the mindset to believe you can deliver on that strategy, the outcome will be what the outcome was meant to be, then you're never ever going to have that success.

You don't get confident because you have the right relationship with money, you get the right relationship with money, because you have self confidence.

Success is never going to be a linear one and never going to be an easy one. But if you keep plowing and keep plugging away at it, then you are going to get to where you are to where you want to in this journey of life.

In this 5th in the celebratory mini-series of the podcast, my guest for this episode is Damian Schechter.

Damian is the owner and founder of RNDR Coaching Systems. A brand that has been built on, and is synonymous with helping busy individuals get into the best mental and physical shape of their lives.

Damian’s core approach to working with clients is to develop a great amount of trust, integrity and accountability throughout the journey together, whilst delivering a high level of education to clients that enable them to walk away with all the knowledge needed to continue achieving results for a lifetime.

Key Takeaways

There’s nothing wrong and embarrassing about working on yourself and raising your hand up and actually asking for the right help when it comes to educating yourself about money. It’s essential to get right advice and guidance and seek mentorship as to equip yourself with the tools you do not have.

Outreach is important to business owners. Get the right people to be on board with you. Knowing what you can and cannot do and reach out, connect and relate to those who can support you in particular areas are great catalysts to scale and grow your business.

Learn to delegate and hand responsibilities over to the right people. By doing so allows you to focus more time, energy and effort in driving the business forward.

Our relationship with money is actually nothing to do with the money, but our relationship with ourselves. Once we have a greater awareness of the value that we are bringing, and our conversation about money reflects of that value, everything else becomes easy.

Start saving young and manage the burn out. Because after 8, 9, 10 years of doing something and not realizing that you have this issue, it really catches up with you. And it kills your motivation.

Interact and surround yourself with successful people. People you aspire and those who have what you aspire.

Welcome to the 4th episode in this special week long celebration of 12 months of the Let’s Talk Money and more podcast and the addition of male guests to the line up.

Today’s special guest is Paul Sayer a seasoned charity event organiser and fundraising consultant who has worked with a wide range of charities from large nationals to smaller local organisations for about 30 years.

He was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2018 but was fortunate enough to find and receive a minimally invasive treatment called focal therapy using just ultrasound to target and destroy just the cancerous cells, leaving surrounding tissue unharmed. The treatment preserved his lifestyle functionality.

Having benefited from focal therapy and so being very aware of the better lifestyle outcome and minimal recovery times, Paul decided to create a charity to fight for wider access and awareness of these treatment options, so Prost8 UK was born in early 2019 . Today Prost8 is striving to raise funds to buy, donate and deploy focal therapy suites into strategic NHS hospitals across the UK as clinicians are struggling to obtain funding to roll this out.

But it should not be the job of a charity to do the work of the Dept of Health or the NHS so Paul is launching a high profile campaign to pressure government organisations to step up and do the right thing for thousands of men with low to intermediate grade prostate cancer.

Key Takeaways

Focal therapy treatment allows the surgeon to target just the tumor or the cancer cells with ultrasound leaving surrounding tissues unharmed.

A charity has to be treated very much like a business, but you don't have the same control over sales, income revenue and such and very much focused on the well being of others.

People have more of an interest in giving money to a charity when they've been touched in some way themselves or know someone has been touched or a disaster happened somewhere in the world that particularly grabs their interest.

In terms of researching and trying to find those sources of information, take control. But do it in a sensible way. Don't just read everything that comes up on the internet.

Be your own health advocate. Take responsibility of your own health, don’t wait for others to do it for you.

Welcome to the latest episode, in this week long celebration of the Let’s Talk Money and more podcast. It is 1 year old this week and part of the celebration is the addition of male guests to the lineup. I can’t wait to share today’s guest with you, another great man. Ashley Shipman is a Startup investor & business development advisor. Also, a Non-Exec and board for private equity funds and companies.

With over 12 years of experience, Ashley has successfully grown businesses to 6, 7 & 8 figures. His dynamic, trusted & committed service has helped thousands of entrepreneurs across many sectors transform their businesses to their desired outcomes and often exceed them. Ashley gets fast results by identifying the critical steps needed to increase profit by unlocking & implementing growth opportunities to ensure no business is left on the table.

I met Ashley on Clubhouse, where He is the Co-Creator of a rapidly growing entrepreneurial network of over 50,000 members, "The Winners Club,". He is a live Audio Host of 'Breakfast With Winners' where Ashley interviews live & shares the speaker stage with billionaires, A-list celebrities, and elite-level performers from all over the World.

Ashley's huge, accessible, diverse network enables him to embed a real collaborative approach. He will create, grow and accelerate your business with you to ensure you have all the tools for continued growth.

Key Takeaways

Consistency is key and persistence will always win in the end.

‘If you can't get a seat at a table serve water’, be with the right people.

If an opportunity presents itself, start moving and building momentum in a direction it will take you, and do everything you can and trust the process.

In the world of life and business, you're going to be consistently told no. Remind your self that you’re one step closer. If something doesn't happen, or a door closes and a route doesn't pan out know that something better is coming.

Turn your pain into fuel and it will literally like be a rocket.

Train your brain to respond and react pro actively when it’s being challenged. Ask yourself like, “What is my body telling me? Why am I feeling this way?” And once you’ve educated yourself on that, you’d know what to do when situations as such come again.

Don’t mask the adversity. Always think that the quicker you can find a solution, and the lesson with any problem you face, the happier you'll be in life.

Welcome to another celebratory episode of The Let’s Talk Money and more podcast. I am celebrating a whole 12 months of the podcast and also the fact we are now adding male guests to the lineup – starting with a week long series of male guests.

All week, I will be sharing with you, 7 great men in my network and today is no exception. Ollie Carson is father to 3 beautiful children, a partner and founder/head coach of Supercharged Fitpro. Supercharged Fitpro helps busy, frustrated personal trainers build thriving online businesses so they have more impact, income and freedom.

I have had the pleasure of working with a number of Ollie’s clients and they really are not only Supercharged, but a super group of people too.

Key Takeaways

It’s all about perspective. Your money story is your super power. Having experience both positively and negatively puts you in a position to empathise with people and level with them. which enables you to have a deeper connection and relationship.

Having an open dialogue starting at a young age about money whether it’s as simple as saving, a basic understanding, or its value, would immensely help build the foundation you can rely on as an adult.

Learn to live with it within your means. Learn to understand the intricacies of managing your money and learn to reinvest in such a way that builds your wealth over time.

There isn't a handbook that an A-Z of how to run a business successfully. It’s not one and done. Mistakes are made from day one. And these mistakes allow us to recognise and assess our relationship with money, our money mindset and how to grown and learn from it.

It's really important to understand what is triggering you, and why are you triggered. Because it's more likely to be a reflection of something else that is going on for you and relating to your self worth and self value.

Today’s episode is the first of a week’s long celebration of 12 months of the podcast and my decision to include male guests as part of the podcast going forward. Some would say a long overdue addition, I would reframe that as, perfectly timed….

Today’s guest reflects the journey that I have been on over the last 12 months, since the podcast was launched exactly 12 months ago today. My first episode was a solo episode, the 2nd was my very first guest…Penny Power OBE. So it seems only fitting that my 1st male guest, should be Penny’s husband, Thomas Power.

Thomas is a powerhouse of a man, and more than that he is a super connector. Building Community inside Corporates and Connecting Business Owners is his and Penny’s focus. Uniting the two being the outcome. Thomas passionately believes in Community Led Growth (CLG) supporting people to grow themselves, their health, their mind, their business and increasingly their organisation. All three of his and Penny’s children support them in their endeavour of Community Building in three different ways.

Key Takeaways

Holding non executive and consultant positions in several boards, Thomas Power have seen companies succeed and failed. Even in 15 companies, only two of them made it the other 13 didn't. And that failure wasn't necessarily anything to do with one’s ability, skill or desire, but a lot of it is to do plainly with the reason most companies just don't make it.

Thomas described billionaires as people who have tremendous skill. They have tremendous ability, incredible minds, incredible thinking ability, negotiating ability, workability, and all have incredible memories. Brutal even to some extent.

There are a lot of factors why financially successful individuals are brutal or aggressive on their approach. These driving force can be perhaps the absence of parental support, being unloved as child, having no recognition or no identity. And whatever it may be creates a burning desire to create an outcome, positively or negatively.

The profile difference between a billionaire and a millionaire is interesting and absolutely massive. It’s common for billionaires to always working against the clock, trying to get things done before they die. Whereas millionaire profiles are trying to reach a state of comfort for their families or their lifestyles.

To have a better relationship with money, your self worth should always comes intact first. Everything else is secondary, it will come to you as a result of what you do, who you do it with and why you do it for.

This week on the Let’s Talk Money and more podcast. I am talking with another fantastic guest. Nicolene Elhadad is a multi-faced, self made millionaire and has grown her empire from the ground up. She is a mum of 3 children and the owner of 7 different businesses.

Nicolene strives to live her best life, full of energy and passion, doing everything she loves. Known as the Franchise Queen, Nicolene believes in expanding your business and wealth, through multiplying what you already have and doing it in a simplified and fun way.

Key Takeaways

Money doesn't have any power above us. It's the power that we give to money.

It's vital to have the awareness, right understanding and right relationship with money at the youngest age possible.

Supporting children to know the possibilities and that they can have what they want but only if they respect money (how they earn and grow it) and work smartly.

As entrepreneurs we have the ability to make choices and decisions. And that’s where we truly become empowered. When we start to live our life, on purpose and towards our purpose.

You don’t have to be the next McDonald's or the next Starbucks. But you can be a brand that creates that safety, that formula, that business in a box model that actually suits loads of other people out there.

Having confidence with money starts with having confidence with yourself. So much self confidence is required, in order to have more money, to attract more money, to feel confident to invest and spend that money.

When you are struggling, having a challenge or a big issue, look at it in perspective where you enjoy, appreciate, and learn from what’s at hand. Know that you are not going to be there again, everything is growing and evolving. It’s all about the attitude.

In this week’s episode of the podcast, I share details of a powerful reminder of how our own internal conversations, can be holding us back from achieving the results we want to see in our business.

An equation was shared with me several months ago, and that is, P = P – I. P is for Performance, and your performance equals your Potential minus Interferences.

Performance is the overall performance of your business, with the second P being the ultimate potential of that business, in terms of the revenue it's making, the impact it's having, and then the I is the interferences, those external or sometimes internal interferences that is preventing your business from ultimately achieving the best performance that it can.

Key Takeaways

Our relationship with money, the internal conversation that we are having with ourselves about money is all impacted by our sense of self worth, and self value.

It’s important in businesses to be visible. To be the front and center of minds when it comes to potential clients, seeing what we do, understanding the results that we can bring, and recognising that we are the company to help them achieve those results.

It’s is important to be able to recognise interferences, even before they actually become an interference. There needs to be a mechanism in place where we should pause, review what’s going on, not only in our business directly, but also in our niche and industry as well.

By understanding the gaps and what you can do to alleviate those gaps gives you the best chance to take that intentional action and stay ahead in your business and industry.

Ask yourself these questions: What are those interferences that you know are currently holding you back in your business? What is stopping you and your business from achieving its full of potential? And what are you going to do about them?

My guest this week is Heather Angell, a successful business owner and mum of two young children.

Heather has true empathy for people that are feeling completely overwhelmed, unfulfilled & stuck in a life that they know could be so much bigger, bolder and brighter.

Since leaving the corporate rat race in 2015 Heather has been helping highly ambitious business owners around the world reclaim their time, energy and sense of purpose through private mentoring, consulting, speaking events & online programs.

Heather's unique approach empowers people to leave self-doubt, fear and uncertainty behind and grow a joyful, fulfilling, profitable and sustainable business on their terms.

Key Takeaways

Sometimes it’s the protectionism approach that has the biggest part in what harms us in our relationship with our own self worth, self value, how we grow our own revenue with our businesses.

Your self worth and how your confidence around money are absolutely linked. However, your self worth should have nothing to do with the figure that's in your bank account, you are worthy, regardless of what the number is.

It’s important to define what success means to yourself. And also give yourself permission that the definition of success evolves.

It’s important to celebrate your own success as well as other people’s success. By celebrating others you are shown that something is possible, what you need to do is to learn to mute that voice in your head, that tries to take away from that person’s success.

Find all motivation in yourself to able to recreate what others have done and shift your mindset and tell yourself, ‘If they’ve done it, I can do it.”

Money blocks is a terminology that has developed over the years, giving people the excuse not to look internally at why are they undervaluing themselves. There's nothing blocking you other than yourself, and other than your belief in your ability to do or go after something.

The best way to empower your relationship with money, and create a Money Mindset that supports you, is to really, really know your Money Personality, and this means understanding your Money Archetypes. In this episode I explore each of the Money Archetypes and provide useful reframes for the main elements of each Archetype. There are 8 Money Archetypes in total, and our relationship with money is governed by 3 of them. This relationship will be a blend of the three, so not all traits of each Money Archetype will show up for us, but it's important to know and understand, which ones are supporting us and which are not.

Key Takeaways

The Nurturer archetype is your inner sponsor. You'll be likely to appreciate money, yet you feel the need to over give. Every penny that you bring in, you will have a natural generosity. And this includes wanting to protect shelter, or nurture others financially.

The Alchemist archetype is your inner idealist. The alchemist are attracted to unconventional or different ways of making money.

The Accumulator is an archetype very much around saving money. There will never be a rainy enough day for accumulators to feel more comfortable spending money than saving money, because accumulators love to save.

The Connector is really good and evil of helping others to create long term relationships that can generate income. They're very happy when somebody else is making decisions, though, particularly financial decisions for them.

The Celebrity archetype is a very charismatic archetype, people are drawn to them because of that charisma. However, celebrity archetypes can have a tendency to value money as a tool to achieve the status, the image and the recognition that is so important to them.

The Ruler archetype have a strong desire to achieve, and a strong desire to build a successful business. As a ruler, you never feel satisfied and you're continually challenging yourself to achieve higher financial goals.

The Romantic archetype is described as your inner headedness. And this is because romantics tend to feel gratification and pleasure around value simply because they feel like it, they're worth it. They dislike feeling a slave to money. Instead, they like to use it to enjoy other good things. They believe that money is there to be enjoyed.

The Maverick archetype is your rebel without a cause. And a Maverick is attracted no surprises to get rich opportunities, they are willing to take a financial risk in exchange for potentially a big win.

Understanding your relationship with money, and understanding your money archetypes that are driving that relationship does empower you. It puts you in the driving seat of the decisions that you make regarding money going forward, and allows you to understand the impact and the reasoning behind why you have made decisions.

My guest for this episode is Misty Lynch, US based owner and CEO of Sound View Financial Advisors, LLC. She is passionate in her commitment to help her clients handle their finances and lives with confidence.

Misty hosts the unscripted reality show HEARTBROKE and the Demystifying Money podcast. She is also the author of DEMYSTIFYING MONEY and a personal finance expert and resource for media outlets including The New York Times, Cosmopolitan and CNN. She was also one of the Top 100 Financial Advisors in the US in 2021 and US News and World Report called her one of the 9 Women in Finance to follow’ because sometimes you need life advice, not just financial advice’.

Key Takeaways

Having gone through her money experience growing up, Misty realised that money doesn’t cause all of the problems or solve all the problems in the world. But I still believe it solves a lot of them.

Learning how to manage money, learning how to use it, not be afraid of it nor ignore it can be incredibly powerful.

Reevaluating and learning how to adapt your business is vital. In order to stay in business, continuous learning and evolving is key.

Keep things simple when it comes to money and kids. Do not underestimate the influence you have right now to impact the lives of your children. Just a few small lessons can make a huge difference, but the habits they form will be key for really empowering their financial future.

Seek the art of possible. Seek the evidence of others who have done it, and know that it is out there for you, If you choose it. If the evidence is there don’t dismiss it, go and be curious.

Always be mindful of your own mindset around money, your own mindset around growth, and development, and what you truly believe. When you do that, you have the greatest opportunity for success.

Figure out how to measure your own success, don’t measure it up against someone else’s. It has to correspond with your way. Because if it doesn't meet what you want, and correspond with your way, then it's going to be out of alignment, you're not going to have that real, emotional connection to your goal.

In this episode, I explore what could happen if you were braver and challenged your own thinking, in terms of what could be possible for you and by when.

Setting a 5 year vision for your business is important, but what is stopping you from achieving in 3 months, what you are stating will be done in 5 years….Are there real factors that prevent you achieving that outcome sooner, or are you simply kicking the can down the road, because of limiting beliefs, around what you are capable of achieving much sooner?

Key Takeaways

In setting our goals, it’s important to set it to short term goals, medium term goals and longer term goals. Then we start off from the perspective of what is our longer term goal, and reverse engineer all our other goals based on that longer term goal.

In setting longer term goals ask yourself; Am I really committed to achieving that goal? Am I really committed to taking all the steps, the intentional action that I need to take in order to achieve that goal?

When we really lean in to the art of the possible and go and seek the evidence, then that is where we start to realise that our limiting beliefs hold us back. Because if we go and look for who has achieved what it is we want to achieve, then under most circumstances, we will always find somebody who has achieved the very thing that we want to achieve. And very often, in a much shorter timeframe than we have believed is possible for us.

We make decisions all the time. When we make no decision, we are actually making a limiting decision, a decision to do nothing. And that in itself is a decision.

Writing down your goals is the easiest and best way to connect with them. It is setting out that intention to do and achieve what you've committed to paper. And by then you can start breaking it down into those milestones, into those action steps you need to take in order to achieve that goal.

Our limiting beliefs are like our relationship with money. It's never ever going to be one and done. But if we keep pushing through and creating the facts and the evidence that we can do what we set out to do, there'll be learning along the way. Take each lesson as one step closer to progress, one step closer to getting what we want.

Consider a goal that you think is out of reach at the moment is something that you will look to achieve in five years time. What if you could achieve it in 90 days? What would you need to do? How would you do it? Who do you need to become and then work through that and start that with one small step one small step of intentional action.

On this week’s episode of the ‘Let’s Talk Money and more’ podcast, I have another great guest for listeners. The name Michaela Wain, will be familiar to many listeners, as she was a finalist on the BBC1 programme The Apprentice.

Michaela is also a hugely successful entrepreneur, as MD of Design and Build UK, Director of Vantage Utility Connections, Director of Property Ninjas and the proud Founder of the Women in Construction Awards.

During our conversation together, Michaela and I we delve into her money story to understand what’s brought her to where she is today, her philosophy, goal setting strategies and a whole lot more. Enjoy tuning in.

Key Takeaways

As a woman, be in a position of complete understanding of your own value. It’s up to you to support that value and respect yourself enough to say “this is my worth.”

Every job that you do every single minute of your life, however you're choosing to live, it is worth something.

In influencing younger female generations, it’s important for them to hear the story and see positive and inspirational stories where women have gone into trades. Work with them to get to the end goal and show them how to get there instead of just forcing them into university, into debt, and into just an unknown world.

Show the art of the possible. See the evidence that other people have been able to do things that they did not think was available to them.

Motivate and encourage that you can ask for more, you can expect more, and you can go for more.

Set realistic goals. And when you reach that goal, set the bar a little bit higher. Always break it down, assess and reflect. Remember to put a structure to it to keep you on track.

Things develop over time, you don't have to go out and be a genius and reinvent something. So look for that evidence. It's really important that everybody has a role model from whatever background they're from so they can aspire to be something better.

And it's key to being able to actually see other women out there doing the same things that you want to achieve. We can only be what we can see, visualise your goals.

As a woman, be in a position of complete understanding of your own value. It’s up to you to support that value and respect yourself enough to say “this is my worth.”

Every job that you do every single minute of your life, however you're choosing to live, it is worth something.

In influencing younger female generations, it’s important for them to hear the story and see positive and inspirational stories where women have gone into trades. Work with them to get to the end goal and show them how to get there instead of just forcing them into university, into debt, and into just an unknown world.

Show the art of the possible. See the evidence that other people have been able to do things that they did not think was available to them.

Motivate and encourage that you can ask for more, you can expect more, and you can go for more.

Set realistic goals. And when you reach that goal, set the bar a little bit higher. Always break it down, assess and reflect. Remember to put a structure to it to keep you on track.

Things develop over time, you don't have to go out and be a genius and reinvent something. So look for that evidence. It's really important that everybody has a role model from whatever background they're from so they can aspire to be something better.

And it's key to being able to actually see other women out there doing the same things that you want to achieve. We can only be what we can see, visualise your goals.

In this episode, I explore the connection between our net worth and our self worth and how developing our self confidence is the key to creating the right relationship with money.

Key Takeaways

Confident relationship with money begins with a confident relationship with yourself.

Your relationship with money affects every aspect of your life, your friendships, your relationships, your business, the feeling of success, and how much you can enjoy them. But truth is, money is just an enabler. And you shouldn't let that relationship in any way disable you and your life success.

Money loves a purpose. It’s really important to understand what purpose money holds for you. By doing so, you create that emotional connection. And when you create emotional connection, you are able take and make intentional action that helps lead towards your goals.

Your money mindset is the inner conversation you have with yourself, the feelings and the actual relationship that you have with money. But what makes it even more important is that it is directly linked to your sense of self value, self worth, and self confidence. However, you need to be aware of the subliminal messages that you are providing to yourself around your own sense of self value and self worth.

When you start to do the inner work, you start to realize the impression that you are giving to the outside world with regards to how you value yourself, how you value what you do, and how you value the results that you bring for your clients. Working on yourself doesn't just get reflected in your bank account. It also gets reflected in your own feelings of self confidence because of the linkage between that and your sense of self value and self worth.

A daily affirmation I have around money is, “the more money I earn, the more people I serve, the more people I serve, the more money I earn.”

Finding and having the right tools to genuinely connect with your self confidence and relationship with money are vital to support you head on where you want to be.

Silvia Del Corso is the Director of PinkSEO Ltd, an SEO agency in West London and she's been working as an SEO Specialist for nearly a decade, helping more than 400 small businesses Be Found Online (her company's strapline).

During our conversation Silvia shares her struggles during the economic crisis in Italy which led to the decision of relocating to London. Along with her husband and two kids, they ventured out to the unknown and what can be considered uncomfortable in order to not just survive life but thrive it. Her resilience and determination to start anew is truly inspirational. Join me and Silvia as we talk about her money story, her principles and values, not only as a mother but also an entrepreneur. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

Commitment in what you do is vital. As an entrepreneur, you do everything in blood, sweat and tears. But then you see results and you get to build something and that gives you so much satisfaction.

Silvia’s take regarding the kind of money mindset/message her children picks up from her – She says to encourage children to have an entrepreneurial spirit but at the same time find the balance of reality. We have to keep them connected to the value of things.

Be rational. If you want to do something, it's all a matter of give and take, you give as much as you take.

In order for your business to grow, you can’t rely solely in yourself. When you are doing things on your own, you reach a capacity, you keep burning candles on both ends, then burn out. If you want to grow your business, you really need to think about what investment is needed, and where it's needed

You can do whatever you want, and you can do things that you wouldn't have thought possible. It's just a matter of doing things step by step, little by little.

It’s the turn of another guest episode and I have another great guest for you. Rachel Power is the founder of Power your Potential. A business she's set up to help disillusioned professionals take back their power at work to have more ease, enjoyment and enrichment, not just in their careers, but in their lives.

Before establishing Power Your Potential, Rachel had a successful corporate career for 20 years as a Procurement Professional in various organisations. She played a lead role in numerous Global Transformation Projects but everything changed the day she was asked, and more importantly held accountable to answer "Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?", a question Rachel had managed to avoid her entire career.

This simple question became the catalyst to her own personal transformation project and led to her moving from the corporate world to being a business owner.

Key Takeaways

The more you see opportunities and role models, the more you see what you could do.

Everybody's got so much untapped potential. Nobody's reached it by the time they're 40. People have still got it. And by knowing your strengths, values and interests your confidence will grow.

Somebody's negative comment can actually be the gift we didn't realise it was. When we start reframing some of the things we see and hear to intentionally make them useful for us, they're no longer the weapon that that person might have initially intended them to be.

It's important to have to have a support network around you where you can collaborate, thrive and be part of a wider community. People are so open about their experience and so prepared to share how they have done certain things and provide words of warning about the things not to do.

Money is one of the greatest stress givers and the greatest stress relievers that is possible to have. But by knowing your Money Archetypes you’ll understand better what is going on for you and then you can take the intentional action you want to take to improve and transform your relationship with money.

There are many different habits you can develop in your business. Here are a few of the most important ones:

In this episode of the podcast I share my thoughts on the power of repurposing content and some ideas on how to grow the revenue in your business. There is no getting away from the news, that economically things are heading in the wrong direction, but by considering what we can do to create additional revenue in our business, will help to reduce this impact on us and our business.

Here are different ways that will attract more money into your business:

  • Stop charging per hour
  • Discover your niche/speciality
  • Charge more
  • Offer a guarantee
  • Stop chasing new customers and focus on the ones you have
  • Ask for referrals and testimonials
  • Offer personal coaching/consulting as an add-on
  • Give away what they're paying for
  • Offer multiple products or services
  • Invest in your marketing

And remember, by mastering your mindset, you truly can master the money you make in your business. And when mindset goes money grows.

This week’s episode is another guest one, this time I am talking with Libby Langley, a business coach, who lives in the middle of England, with her husband and cat. Today Libby coaches her clients how to get real clarity on their big vision, so they can live the lives they have always dreamed of, exactly as Libby has done, since leaving her corporate career behind in 2011.

Key Takeaways

Being your own boss allow you to do what you like. And it’s incredibly empowering about having financial independence, but also the freedom of choice and freedom of time.

We all bumble along, and we don’t realise what beast we have created for ourselves. It’s important to take a conscious decision and step back and ask yourself; How do I want my day to be? What does make me happy? What is going to bring the success? What does success mean to me? And what is going to bring that about?

What makes your heart sing is what matters.

Do not measure your success from somebody else’s measure of success. Focus on your way, and why you are doing what you're doing. Shut yourself off to the noise of what other people are doing.

Practical action steps combined with asking yourself how it makes you feel and listening to your gut is the way to have a really successful business.

If you're confident with yourself, then you're confident with your relationship with money, and from that foundation is when you're going to make more money.

Financial freedom is probably the goal, but what that means to everybody and how they go about achieving it is going to be different.

In this episode of the podcast, I talk about the power of evidence. Evidence that lets our sub conscious know what we want for ourselves is possible, because other have already achieved it, they have demonstrated the art of the possible.

Key Takeaways

There are only so many original first's like landing on the moon, like creating cures for different illnesses, like finding a breakthrough in technology most of what we see and do has been done before and that is a good thing, and that means we can achieve what those before us have achieved by taking the right intentional action.

Look around the world at large and see the evidence of those people doing what we crave what we want to do because what they are doing they are demonstrating to us the art of the possible.

The difference between success and lack of success is mindset. Mindset and belief in what you are capable of achieving.

Look at the art of the possible, follow those people who's journey really motivates you, who inspire you, whose journey really demonstrates to you what they have done and how they have achieved it.

Financial freedom gives you options, financial freedom gives you choices and when you have those things, you can design a life by your design and not somebody else’s.

In today’s episode I am thrilled to be joined by Bina Briggs. Bina is the co founder and director of Plain Talking HR Ltd. Bina came to the UK as a refugee from Uganda in 1972. She settled in Luton, and is now proud to call herself a Lutoninan . She started her career in corporate working for many different industries, before becoming head of HR for London, Luton Airport, and Plain Talking HR Ltd which was established in 2009. And after a fruitful eight year business partnership, she is now flying solo, as the director of the company. She is also the author of the book The Red Thread which was published in May 2021. People around her tell her that they like her warmth and human approach, together with her passion and enthusiasm, and as being one of my clients, I can certainly attest to those qualities in being there.

During our conversation Bina shares in detail her earlier experiences when settling in the UK, her strong relationship and greatest inspiration; her mother, her positive and resilient outlook in life, the state of heart and mind which greatly reflect on her relationship with money and a whole lot more. This episode is truly refreshing, motivating and encouraging. Join Bina and I for a conversation that will inspire you to push forward and onward despite of adversities. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

Be your own advocate. Demonstrate the power of joy. Celebrate every milestone, he very small things, as much as the big things. Make the most out of the joy and be grateful for it.

The story of your past is past. What matters is now.

Whether or not you get to a million pounds in that bank account, a multi million pounds in that bank account is irrelevant. If you have real inner belief and self confidence, you have what money can’t buy.

Our relationship with money will be exactly where it needs to be when we have the right relationship and true confidence in ourself.

When it comes to our relationship with money, we do not become blocked. We just stop, or maybe never even start, taking the action that we need to, in order to grow our money or our business. What block is there? There is no physical, actual block…it is just something that you are telling yourself. The excuse you have created, to avoid doing the thing that you don’t want to do.

Join me in this episode as I discuss Money Blocks and how to move forward and transform your relationship with money.

Key Takeaways

It is the limiting decisions that you have consciously or subconsciously taken, that is causing you to not take action, not any block.

Our relationship with money is completely intertwined with our relationship with ourselves. It is your sense of self belief, self worth, self confidence, and self esteem. These are the things that are causing you to feel less than and which prevents you from having a successful relationship with money, not any blocks.

Taking action is always the key to moving forward.

A money block is not a block. It is a limiting decision that you have taken as a result of a limiting belief you have about yourself

If you are saying to yourself that you have a money block, stop saying it.

Instead take action, work out what action will move you forward, identify why you have not taken that action till now. Then commit to doing it anyway. Taking that action will feel far less scary than you have built it up to be.

Emma is a landscape and portrait photographer and Project Manager in the advertising industry. She started travelling at the age of 18 and hasn’t stopped since. Whilst living in Sweden in 2017, she realised she enjoyed being in the colder climates and attended a photography workshop in Greenland. This became the catalyst to changes she has since been making to her career as she was completely inspired by the Arctic, which changed her way of thinking about how we look after the environment.

Having had over twenty years of experience in the advertising industry in London, she is now transitioning to becoming a full-time photographer, focused on capturing the benefits of being in nature - cold-water swimming, the oceans and Arctic and getting involved in scientific expeditions, which is where her passion lies.

Key takeaways

Our relationship with money is more about our relationship with ourselves; our sense of self confidence and self worth.

Seeing the art of the possible allows you to become confident in your ability, and help you recognise opportunities that there are opportunities out there for you. Which in result up space in your head to be creative, be resourceful, and be solution focused.

In this frantic world, allow yourself to have a ‘grace of space’ to just sit, think, reflect, and not necessarily always constantly be hunched up with those feelings of fear. Because fear just breeds more fear.

It’s in those moments of almost clarity, that gives us the ability to go, it's going to be okay, I know I've got this. I'm not going to force it. I'm not going to push it.

Start planning ahead, start seeing, and start taking small steps.

Episode 40 is a slightly different episode. I usually plan out the content of my solo episodes, but this one is straight off the cuff and directly from the heart.

The news is full of stories about the war in Ukraine, the cost of living crisis and debate about whether we are heading towards a global recession, or indeed already in recession.

In the episode I want to share my philosophy and approach to more difficult times. Why in times like these, we need to respond and not react. How we need to operate from a resourceful and abundant mindset, which will allow us to be at our most creative and be solution focussed, rather reliant on the actions, or inactions of others.

Key Takeaways

With the current situation happening a the moment, it’s important to remember that there have been similar situations in the past. This too will pass.

Choose to have a perspective of a resourceful mindset. It's an important aim to find solutions for ourselves rather than relying on somebody else, or some external factor coming to save us.

Be in a position of planning and base your plans on the set of circumstances that you are presented with. Look at each of these situations, from the perspective of what can I do to support myself? What can I do to support my family? And what can I do to support those around me?

Actively choose not to wallow in the what ifs.

You can choose to react, or you can choose to respond. And that is the difference of a scarcity versus an abundant mindset.

In an abundant mindset, you’ll have the best ability to be resourceful and the best ability to really connect with the art of the possible. Whilst with the scarcity mindset, we shut ourselves off from having the ability to tap into our creativity, because fight or flight takes over.

Being in a state of fear and panic and worry isn't going to change the external situation. Focus on what you can do from a resourceful perspective, solution lead perspective, and respond in the right way.

In this episode I talk about the underlying needs about money. For some of us money is something to be chased and hoarded. For others, it's something to be spent and got rid of as soon as it turned, and for others money is something to be avoided at all costs. No matter what our relationship with money is, there's usually an underlying need for this driving our behaviour. Join me as I explore what drives behind the need about money.

Key takeaways

Usually the underlying need is one these; the need for love, the need for security/to feel safe, need for approval, and need for significance.

It's so important to be able to pinpoint where your particular need resides. By identifying your needs, you will be able to really understand how it is affecting how you show up in the world.

It is never our limiting beliefs we need to be overly concerned with because you can ‘feel the fear and do it anyway’. But the limiting decisions that we take, as a result of the limiting belief.

In this episode I talk with Louisa Jovanovich, the founder of Connect with Source and co-author of two best selling books.

After many years in the beauty industry as a hairdresser in high end salons, she experienced first-hand the constant ‘comparisonitis’ and lack of faith in their own expertise that was happening at all levels in the industry, right up through the ranks of salon owner.

This lack of confidence and not owning their self-worth effected their earning capacity and quality of life. And she was no different. But she knew that something had to change.

She now works with entrepreneurs and business owners to help them identify their blindspots, and breakthrough their limiting beliefs so that they can access a life and business they’ve only dreamed of.

Key Takeaways

Identifying the limiting beliefs Louisa has grown accustomed to growing up allowed her to become more self aware and realise that these limiting beliefs manifest in her life and affect her choices and outlook.

When Louisa went into Leadership work, she focused working on her overall mindset which has helped her turn her scarcity mentality to abundance mindset.

When asked about implementing independent relationships vs dependent relationships towards her children, Louisa advise to trust the process and know taking care of yourself, growing, learning and be the best person you can be is as important. Children absorbs and see that. How they take that on and what they make it mean is their own journey.

Get yourself educated and not just hand over your financial experience to someone else. Because with education comes power, and comes empowerment – empowerment of ourselves.

In this episode I talk about the key to having more, is believing you deserve more and visualising it happening, even before it happens.

Key takeaways

The key to having more is believing you deserve more, and visualising it happening even before it happens.

In order to change your relationship with money you have to break through the barriers and rewrite your story, uncover your triggers and then install the new belief or beliefs that gives you what you need to believe in yourself and a plan to make it a reality. And all of this begins by you visualising the success you want to have.

Visualising is not enough. You need to create real emotional connection to what you are visualising.

When you visualise something, ensure you're using all your senses, what you were seeing what you were feeling, what you were hearing, what you were smelling, and what you were saying.

Visualisation is not a one and done. It is something that you need to commit to. It is something that needs to be intentional.

Visualisation creates feelings of anticipation, of excitement, of confidence of really connecting with the art of the possible, which in turn creates intentional action. And with intentional action, we are much more likely to see the results we are seeking.

Join Daria and I as we discuss the importance and role of running Facebook and Instagram ads in your business. A conversation that is truly enlightening, Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

Business owners should realise that Facebook and Instagram Ads always involves rigorous testing and experimenting to different audiences to determine what works and effective. And not always do you get immediate result.

Scarcity mindset shows up frequently amongst business owners, because the return isn’t immediate being them scared to invest. To break through this scarcity mindset, shift your mindset to Facebook ads, as not a cost but an investment. Just like when you are upgrading your work equipments and by doing so would allow you to work efficently and effectively.

Ads are like amplifiers or speakers so you can speak not just one but to thousands of people. But if your messaging ads do not connect, if you don’t know how to express yourself, it’s not going to work.

Often times business owners try to use ads as a way to solve their marketing problem, or as a way to solve their selling problem. But you have to find your ‘secret sauce.’ If you’re a carbon copy of everyone else, and don't really know how to sell whatever else, ads are not gonna save that at all. It's just going to amplify the issue.

Ads is a part of your business growth strategy. It’s a tool to help you to get to that next level.

It's really important to find your unique proposition and unique audience. Because then you're building loyalty. And then those people are going to stay with you and come back to you, when you're offering new services.

In this episode I talk about an issue my clients regularly discuss with me…not feeling good enough.

This can take different forms, such as feeling they don’t deserve to make a lot of money, or believing they are simply not qualified enough to earn a lot of money.

Key Takeaways

The first step to overcoming these feelings of not being good enough is to understand where it has developed from. Often these feelings are based on our own subconscious beliefs that have been internalised during childhood.

Beliefs are based on experiences, or our interpretation of experiences from our younger years. They're not always based on facts, but on our own interpretation of experiences.

Once able to identify the source of beliefs, we put ourselves in the ideal position to question and challenge them.

When you start seeing yourself as someone who was worthy of success, you will be amazed at what you’ll be able to achieve.

You have to go through some pain in order to really lean away from old beliefs that you want to let go off, and what new beliefs you want to lean into

We can choose to give energy to negativity, or we can choose to create something out of positivity

The art of the possible is absolutely possible. The main thing to remember is by being consistent and persistent about creating a set of beliefs that serve you, by creating the evidence that you are worthy of everything you want, and creating the goals and plan and taking action

In this episode I talk with Bev Densham, who is an author and mindfulness Pilates teacher of 24 years. Two near death experiences and divorce guided her to heal & inspire others with her mindfulness Pilates zoom studio with meditation, mindset, journaling & positive affirmations. Helping reduce back pain & to help more entrepreneurs to be strong in mind, body & business, is the soul purpose of Bev’s business. She has also created a mindfulness Pilates podcast and is founder of the Happy Kids cards and Happy & Calm cards to help children and adults live happily ever after.

Key Takeaways

Bev focused on personal development and healing. Doing meditation, mindful pilates, affirmations, reading, learning, journaling and visualising has helped her immensely on her journey.

Wealth is an attitude, it's not a destination.

Know what your money archetypes are helps you understand why there can be such conflicts going on.

In money archetypes, both accumulator and ruler don't particularly like spending money they like saving their money. Investment doesn't come naturally saving does.

There's always so many more things to do and create and be inspired and help the world with.

Very often we beat ourselves up when we make mistakes, when actually, mistakes are the only thing that we learn from. Mistakes are gifts, gifts for moving forward rather than something to berate ourselves with.

In this episode of the podcast, I talk about the importance of understanding YOUR relationship with money. Understanding your relationship with money is the key to improving your relationship with it and the success you see as a result.

Key Takeaways



By focusing on the relationship you want with money And being totally open to exploring where your limiting beliefs have come from can change at a core level, what that relationship looks and feels like.

A cookie cutter approach to developing a productive and flourishing relationship with money is unhelpful and in the long term ineffective.

Our beliefs about money play a huge role in how much we earn, and how successful we are because how you think about money affects every decision you make about it.

It's important to remember that money is just a tool. It's not the end goal. The most important thing is what we do with it.

Everyone has their own unique relationship with money.

When you own your money story and make it work for you. Really good things happen.

Your future is only limited by the limits you place on it.

In this episode of the podcast, I speak with Anna Parker Naples, the UK’s Leading Podcast Launch Expert. I have much to be grateful to Anna for, as it was she that introduced me to podcasting.

Anna shares her childhood story and money story. During our conversation Anna talked about a frightening and scary core memory that really impacted how she viewed money and develop a belief that having wealth makes your life at risk. Join Anna and I as we explore industry money beliefs, pressures and views. This is a conversation that will enlighten you to find your equilibrium and push you forward to have self awareness and go onward to be visible in your life and business. Enjoy tuning in!

Key Takeaways

Our relationship with money does form in our childhood, and those experiences from childhood can play out differently even when growing up in that same environment.

Achieving dreams and aspirations don’t happen overnight. You have to start the journey and you have to start now.

Show up, be visible. Tremendous opportunities are available.

Reframe your mind. Demonstrate the art of possible. You have a choice to reality.

When you get visible, you show people that you're going to do the thing you're going to do and then you continue doing it and showing them over and over and over again. You can do anything, you can turn any circumstance around.

Being aware of triggers is important, you have to start to notice when you're feeling unhappy, you have to stop and think why, what is actually going on for me.

In this latest episode of Let’s Talk Money and More Podcast, I share what Imposter Syndrome is and how to overcome it.

Our relationship with money is hugely interlinked with our personal feelings of self worth, and self value. And impostor syndrome can frequently cause so much frustration, and quite simply hold us stuck, unable to move our business forward.

Know, that you are not alone. Overcoming these feelings and building on your proven competence at work, or even in your personal life starts with accepting yourself for who you are.

Key takeaways:

Other people's success doesn't define or limit yours. Your skills and talents are unique to you, and doesn't have to be compared to the skills and talents of others.

In overcoming Imposter Syndrome you have to be mindful of negative self talk. For internal conversation shapes how we see ourselves and the world around us.

Visualise success. Get into the habit of picturing yourself being successful in setting and achieving both short and long term goals, be constant and consistent in encouraging yourself to reach them, most importantly celebrate it.

Overcoming Impostor Syndrome is a choice. A choice that you control actively and intentionally choose to be confident in your ability. Choose to believe that your knowledge and experience is valuable.

10 tips to banish Impostor Syndrome. Let go of trying to do things according to other people's opinions. Stay in your lane, focus on you and your success.

In this episode I am joined by Brittany Welsh. Brittany is a mother of two, marketing executive and manifestation expert. She demystifies the process of manifesting to help people tap into their unlimited creating potential and manifest their desired reality.

Key Takeaways

  • Manifesting is simply creating a physical reality at something that we can see. Manifesting is intentionally asking for something and creating the action upon which to make it happen.
  • When we hold something as a belief or conviction, we begin to think that that’s the information we tell our brain is relevant. And we want to process that into our awareness.
  • Our money archetypes are our board directors, the more we understand our board directors, their characteristics, their gifts, their challenges, their strengths, the more we can lean in to the relevant board director, when it comes to making a decision about money.
  • Past experiences, behavioral patterns and beliefs dictate our thoughts, feelings and actions in present moment.
  • Visualisation and affirmation is also key to swap doubts, fears and limiting beliefs into having a positive and renewed thought process regarding money.
  • Being in a perpetual present moment means being intentional with thoughts, feelings and actions.
  • You have a choice, you can either consciously create and choose what's fulfilling to you.
  • The purpose is learning growth, expansion, personal development, interested rewards, a feeling pride and everything coming from within.

In this episode I share the importance of accepting change, as an opportunity for growth and how actively looking to change your relationship with money, will bring you closer to achieving your financial goals.

Key takeaways:

Change is scary and uncomfortable but the cost of staying the same is much higher than the cost of change.

Your relationship with money affects every aspect of your life and business.

It's easy to stay in your comfort zone. But by staying the same, you're not progressing and your relationship with money is not getting any better.

The cost of staying the same is stagnation and regression. The cost of change is growth and progress.

In creating a deep and long lasting change that reflects in all aspects of life we need to fight for our limitations

Value in yourself is a process. You are worth the effort required to make that change. And when you value yourself those around you will start valuing you too.

In this episode, I am joined by Lohani Noor. Lohani has been practicing for 8 years in private practice resident at the Manchester Insitute of Psychotherapy. She is also an author, her book '20 Steps to Sexual Connection' and was the BBC therapist on 'Sex on the Counch' as seen on BBC1 and BBC iPlayer. She is also a qualified fitness and bodybuilding instructor and UKBFF Judge. Growing up in an Asian Family in the gritty North of England, the seventh child in a family of ten children, Lohani shared her experiences, her journey and her money story.

Key Takeaways:

How money enhanced her experiences and how it provided more opportunities for the things that are important to her.

Recognising that money is a reflection of how you are living your life.

From a holistic approach and viewpoint, understanding our relationship with money fundamentally means it isn't about the number in the bank. It's about the emotional number.

Realising that when we trust our gut instinct, we are in an abundant mindset. And trusting that in accordance with an aligned action, everything will deliver.

There will be gains and dips in our money journey and relationship, regardless you will be okay.

Only invest to the point that you can afford to invest emotionally.

In this episode, I share the importance of understanding what your values are. We all have different values when it comes to money, and sometimes those values can be in conflict with each other and cause conflict with others too. Also, it’s hard to make financial decisions when you're not sure what your values are. Figuring out your personal values around money can be tough, but it's an important step in creating a healthy relationship with money. Furthermore, I talked about what money value is, what defines it and questions for you to ponder on. Join me in this episode as we identify what money values are and discover what really makes us happy and what is going to allow us to really thrive and not strive. Enjoy tuning in!

In this episode, Sam Dunlop shares about her money story. Sam is an award-winning director of two high-flying companies, she built her accountancy and recruitment businesses from scratch.

Sam did well at school, but she left at 16, a victim of bullying over her pale skin and auburn hair. This led to an apprenticeship at a hairdressers and dying her hair every colour to bury her shame at being ‘ginger’. Despite her crushed confidence, Sam’s ambition burned as brightly as her red hair and she passed her AAT (accountancy) qualification with the Open University. A few years ago, Sam set up her own accountancy business - Prestigious Finance Services.

The schoolgirl who was relentlessly tormented has certainly become the mouse that roared, winning the KWIB Women in Business 'Entrepreneur of the Year in 2021’. Two years ago, Sam founded a second company, MasterMind Recruitment. And at the height of the pandemic, she spotted an opportunity to support an economy devastated by Covid and worked with local job centres to launch a service to match jobseekers to her clients.

During our conversation Sam shared in detail her experience in bullying during her youth, how she pushed on to achieve her accountancy degree, her money relationship then and now, her business beliefs and goals as well as how she manage to overcome her debts.

This episode is truly motivating and encouraging. Join Sam and I for a conversation that will inspire you to push forward and onward despite adversities. Enjoy tuning in!

In this episode, I share the importance of knowing and understanding the 3 Money Archetypes that define your relationship with money.

There are 8 Money Archetypes in total, each with its own strengths, gifts, and challenges and when you know your own personal ones, this empowers not only your relationship with money but the decisions you make as a result.

Having the knowledge of your Money Archetypes is the key to being able to navigate your way around any conflicts you might be experiencing internally, it's not about no longer experiencing them, but finding a way to successfully deal with them, so they no longer impact your life or the decisions you make. Or if they do still impact, that impact is reduced.

Join me in this episode so you can have a better insight of your Archetypes and allow you to really understand, right at a core level, what is going on for you and to do something about it. Enjoy tuning in!

In this episode, I share the importance of why we need to be visible and why we need to get more visible in our business.

The Online World has never been so busy, so in order to stand out, we must ensure we are seen by those people what we serve or want to serve.

If we are not visible, we are simply gifting our would-be clients, to our competitors, because if we are not ensuring we are seen, I can guarantee others are.

In this episode, I share a number of tips that have helped me to become more visible in my business and to stand out as an expert in my field. I have completely connected with WHY I need to be visible in my business and this has helped me to become comfortable and dare I say, enjoy the process.

Whilst it has not been an easy journey for me, to get comfortable with being more visible, I am fully bought into the importance of why I must do it. And now it is second nature to me.

I hope you enjoy the episode and find what I share useful.

In this episode, you’ll hear me talking about, how for some of us, we may feel a compulsion to spend, even when we don’t have the funds available.

For others, the challenge could be completely the opposite, a fear of spending money, even if they have it. Often due to deep seated concern that it won’t be available when needed, or not be replaced if spent.

I will share an example of a client who was able to reframe her fear of spending, into being about the joy she would feel in sharing her purchase with friends.

I will also talk about some of the reasons why some will experience this discomfort around spending money and tips on how you can self coach yourself, to start reprogramming both the conscious and unconscious mind.

Fear of spending money is a real thing, and it can be crippling.

  • You actually may have enough money to live on but you're afraid to spend it because you don't know if there will be more in the next month or year.
  • You are afraid that if you spend some of your savings, then all of it will disappear before you get another chance to use it again.
  • You feel like saving for retirement is pointless since no one knows how long they'll live anyway ( not true )

The truth is, once we start thinking about our money differently, we'll realise how much control we actually have over our lives. When we learn how to invest wisely and grow our wealth slowly but steadily, then life becomes easier because we no longer have this fear of not having enough. We become happier knowing that no matter what happens tomorrow, today is going great!

In this episode, you’ll hear me talk about the importance of understanding your relationship with money so that you can dream big, and achieve even bigger!

-A negative relationship with money will affect every area of your business and not just the number in your bank account. It will affect ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • How you brand yourself

  • How you deliver and charge for your services

  • How your market what you do⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • How visible you are in your business⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • How you are compared to your peers and competitors ⠀⠀⠀⠀

-How effectively you put boundaries in place ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • How you scale, grow and delegate in your business ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • What you are known for and how well you are known ⠀⠀

  • How effectively you establish yourself as the go-to person in your niche⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • How you value yourself and in turn how others value you ⠀⠀⠀

The list goes on. Having the right relationship with money affects absolutely every area of your business. ⠀

This is why understanding your relationship with money is so key, why it affects every aspect of your life and your business AND why you must do the inner work to understand your limiting beliefs, the limiting decisions you have taken as a result of those beliefs, and then create the change you want to see.

In this episode, you’ll hear artist Janice Sylvia Brock talk about her hugely successful life as an artist. She has paintings hanging in prestigious private art collections all over the World, including the White House.

Some of Janice’s works have been purchased for €250,000, she has a much sought-after style, that draws on a range of influences, not least her second home in Barbados.

During our conversation, Janice shares the details of how she first discovered she had a remarkable talent for painting, whilst she was in hospital, at the age of 10, with rheumatoid arthritis.

Her father gave her a painting by numbers set, to help pass the time whilst in her hospital bed, but Janice decided she didn’t want to be constrained by the numbers and started to develop her own style, even at that young age.

Janice has a huge zest for life and for helping other, recently becoming an ambassador to The Haven+London charity, which supports the needs of the creative community, who have struggled more than many during the pandemic.

Janice has a joie de vivre, which is clearly evident throughout our conversation.

In this episode, I talk about debt, at a time when credit card bills, etc are landing on doorsteps and the hangover payments from Christmas or even Christmas’s long past come back to haunt us.

This episode is for those people who want 2022 to be about moving far away from their own personal debt, be this credit cards, bank loans, or whatever finance options they have, that they feel are now holding them back.

During this episode, I talk about the 3 Step Plan to move away from Debt.

Introduce the concept of saving first, then stacking, as a way to reduce debt most effectively and efficiently and having savings to fall back on, rather than continue the cycle of debt when unplanned purchases are required.

And suggesting ways to manage, motivate and move away from unnecessary debt, once and for all.

Christmas is a time of celebration, coming together, and also for reflection over the past 12 months. No doubt this has continued to be a tricky year for many, but it is so important to take the positives and to use them to build into your plan for the next 12 months.

Here are some highlights:

  1. Understand your attitude around spending

  2. Let go of perfection

  3. Create evidence that you are good with money

  4. Christmas should be about presence and presents

  5. Make a Christmas Commitment

In this episode, I will be discussing ways to have conversations around money, that create the right environment, for them to be comfortable, productive and successful.

There are two types of money conversations that I am going to cover in this episode, pricing and negotiation style conversations around Money.

One of the most common frustrations I hear from my clients is that having conversations about money can be really uncomfortable and something they avoid. But this does not need to be the case.

Following the framework I will share in this episode, will ensure that those uncomfortable conversations around money, because positive, provide an outcome that is fruitful and allow all parties to feel they were heard and respected.

In this episode, I discuss how to work out what your time is worth. Not so you can charge by the hour, but to allow you to really understand, what you will start doing more of and what you will stop doing!

We have so many draws on our time, it is only when we truly connect with and place a value on our time, can we commit to the change we want to see, in order to realise our financial goals.

I will give you the formula to work out what YOUR time is worth, to allow you to make empowered decisions on how and where to spend your time.

In this episode with my guest Penny Power OBE, we will be discussing, how Penny and her husband Thomas grew ‘Ecademy’, a community of business owners to 650,000 members, across 52 countries, in the days before Linkedin and Facebook. The business had to close in 2012 and Penny openly shares this painful experience in order for others to learn how you can grow and rebuild from adversity.

Penny is an entrepreneur, Public Speaker, Author, and Community Builder. Mother of 3 Adult children and married to Thomas Power for 31 years

Penny believes in “Community-led Business Growth’, her belief in business has always been highly personal and underpins this with the awareness that it requires a strong emotional and mental foundation to ensure success.

In 2020 Penny and Thomas launched an exclusive Business community for ‘experts’. Business owners have decided to focus their lives on a skill that will have an impact on others. The community, called BIP100, reflects their beliefs in ‘small intimate groups’, ensuring intimacy, privacy, trust, and support for business owners, where they can grow and support each other with strong values of kindness. The BIP100 Group will close for applicants when it reaches 100 members
