You're Blocking Your Income Capacity
When I was a little girl, I remember walking to the bank every afternoon with my Dad to deposit the day’s takings from our family business. It’s a good memory, it meant one on one time with my Dad who was a very busy man.
At the bank, I loved collecting pamphlets with happy people on the front and blank deposit slips which I’d fill out for whatever amounts my imagination felt like. One of those pamphlets in a particular stuck in my memory. It had an image of a money tree on the front. From that moment on, I believed money trees were real and I couldn’t wait to get one of my own! I asked my Dad where I could get one and he said I’d have to grow it myself. You see he was an entrepreneur and he was always telling me that I could be, do and have whatever I wanted in life as long as I worked hard.
That’s my money story. On the face of it, it looks like a good one. But as I’m about to explain, even a story like this can bring on blocks to one’s money attraction capabilities later in life. The money block I learned as child was “you have to work hard to make money”. This manifested in me manufacturing ways to make money post-divorce that deviated from my known gifts and skill sets.
Being an accountant came easily to me. I won a cadetship to cover university and upon graduation I moved to a high-end boutique accounting firm putting in standard 12 hr days.
Then I got married and had children.
For 10 years, I ran my own tax and accounting practice from home while I raised my children. I felt guilty charging for my work during this time because:
1. I didn’t need the money – my husband who was also a finance professional earned more than enough for the two of us.
2. The work was too easy for me – I’d been used to working in a corporate environment on high end mergers and acquisitions etc.
3. My clients were enjoyable - The client’s I had attracted in my business were women starting up fashion labels, share traders and investors who worked from home – generally, people who did what they loved.
This all went against my money story that “making money is supposed to be hard”.
So…. I unconsciously sabotaged.
I did this by undercharging and over delivering. I had so much resistance around sending out invoices to my clients that I just didn’t send them! I didn’t realise it at the time, but not sending out invoices just made my clients uncomfortable because the transaction between us hadn’t “closed”. They loved my work and wanted to pay me for it! They didn’t want to be left feeling like they “owed me”.
This block compounded even more when I decided to change careers. In my late 30s, I became divorced and was feeling stuck so I went back to university to take up a more “interesting” degree in Interior Design, then started my own interior design business (with no prior experience).
What was I thinking? Why did I ignore all those coveted finance skills of mine?
Earning money so easily in my tax practice went against my money story. Starting a new career ‘from scratch’ took much more effort. My money story was back in tact.
The funny thing is, even though I’d rebranded myself as a designer, people kept coming to me for financial advice. The Universe wanted to make it easy for me to make money but I was unconsciously resisting it.
I was feeling stuck again so I was using my new Feng Shui skills (discovered via my design career) to manifest financial abundance when my dream finance job offer literally landed at my front door! The mother of my son’s friend arrived that same day and casually asked ‘what is it you do again?’. I mentioned my finance and design careers and she said I was just the person her firm was looking for - a creative woman who was qualified in finance.
From that moment on, a ridiculous number of synchronicities occurred to seal the deal. By the end of the week, I was employed in a brand new boutique wealth management firm advising some of the wealthiest families in the country.
Here I was in my dream job, but somehow it still felt wrong for me. Why? I was about to find out that there was a subconscious money block running the show…
I read up on money blocks and money mindset. In the process, woke up to the fact that I had been sabotaging my earning capacity by making it “hard” for myself to make money.
I became certified in money mindset and worked on clearing my money blocks.
I learned to accept that making money can be easy.
I realised it was VERY possible for me to earn massive amounts of money doing what I loved while serving my ideal client - a female entrepreneur.
Not long afterwards, I had the courage to start a new kind of financial advisory business for women “Love Luck Wealth”. This business integrated my valuable finance skills with my passion for mindset and divine feminine energy.
Since then, making money has been easy. A joy. I’m no longer blocking myself and money has come to me in avalanches of abundance.
I want the same for you. I want to show you how to tap into what lights you up – the skills and value you can bring to other people’s lives while making money at the same time.
Where are YOU blocking your earning capacity? Its difficult to see this when you’re IN your own life. Just like you can’t read the label on a box you’re inside of, it takes perspective. This is why booking a session with me can change your life and save you time. You’ll find out where you’re blocking yourself and what the story is you need to let go of in order to make money easy.
