It usually goes like this:
We meet at a party and you ask me what I do. I tell you I help people boost their self-confidence through conversation and if they need it help them get their finances straightened out so they can get on to the fun stuff in their lives. You immediately zero in on the finance part. You sigh and admit, “ Oh god my finances. I just don’t know where the money goes!”
Suddenly you feel embarrassment, shame, get a little defensive, laugh nervously again, feel a little queasy, have a rising sense of panic. The truth is you don’t want to look at your finances because you know they’re bad. You feel inadequate and lost so you just don’t look at them at all.
I’m not here to judge you. I gotta tell you though, the decisions you make today with your money are 100% going to affect your future and your self-confidence. That’s a given. You’re smart. You know that.
Take a deep breath here. No use hyperventilating. Just by reading this far you’re taking charge.
The good news is it doesn’t really matter what you spent your money on up to this point. It meant something to you at the time. It’s gone. Fair enough. See? You made it through step 1: acceptance and moving on.
However, now it’s time to care about you and about what’s going on with your cash.
You deserve to:
1. Stop stressing over money;
2. Feel like an adult with a solid plan for your cash;
3. Know where the money goes;
4. Move on to more of the fun things in your life.
Game? Ok!
Here is the short of it:
1. Look at every single expense you have.
2. Look at every single dollar you make.
3. Subtract the expenses from the cash coming in and formulate a plan.
And then…
4. Rewrite your money story (Huh?)
5. Move on toward your dream (Impossible!)
Still breathing? I’m not going to lie to you. There is a devil in the details. And you will fail at times. But with help, (hopefully my help) you’ll know how to get back on track and you’ll be grounded, in control and feeling confidence and financially savvy…and smart!
This is what I do. I’ll work with you to get your self-confidence back and get your finances in shape and start moving toward living the life you dream of. We’ll hatch a plan that is specific to you a plan you can live with. We laugh together during the process because money doesn’t have to be so deadly serious, or boring.
Besides, don’t you love to laugh?
When you work with me and you need help with your finances, you learn to explore and rewrite that negative story about you and your best friend named Money. Because guess what? You ARE good with money my friend. You just need some concrete steps, practice and some cheer leading.
Your dream of that Bali trip or a new job or that bungalow is not impossible. You should be doing what you love. You should be accepting yourself If you’re not loving what you do, and not loving who you are, why not? Let’s set a path to get you there!
I believe in you. And I be you’re so much stronger than you give yourself credit for.
Then next time you meet someone at a party who says they’re in finance, you can feel great knowing you’re on top of your spending and say, “Whew finance! I’m so glad I have this awesome process that helps me know exactly where my money is and where it goes.”
