What we have all wrong about getting rich...
The root of all evil isn't money or being rich.
"Rich" goes deeper than just pertaining to our finances. We’re all terrified to talk about money but it’s another one of those taboo things I charge towards. (If you want more exclusive spicy taboo talk not available to the public, join the Collector's Vault! - Membership is always free.)
I’ve created money out of thin air over and over through art (but sometimes not in time to make rent lol). Anyways, these were things that didn't exist before I put them into this physical dimension and then it makes me hundreds, if not thousands of dollars at a time???
Out. of. Thin. Air.
I’ll tell you right now I’m not rich (yet) in the traditional since, but throughout my 20s, (I'm 28 now) I've learned a lot about making money (like in the manifestation way, not the conventional way, naturally) and I've been getting the hang of making money without a boss. I can't discount the progress on my wealth journey simply because I haven't made a few mil yet, so I'll share what I've seen so far. I've built quite a bit of freedom (even if I still sweat my bills sometimes), but I've de-centered a traditional job role and have plenty of unconventional (reality-shattering) insights for you, albeit not perfect, and definitely not from a financial professional. (I'm just a real person with a real life journey of building financial freedom, while having FUN.)
For transparency's sake, I can be the first to admit I've asked for help and borrowed money, I have credit cards, my car isn't paid off (ALMOST though!) and I don't think any of that's a bad thing, when you're truly committed to repayment. I believe borrowing is an investment that gives you both time freedom and money freedom (just watch those interest rates. I, however, did not haha. Hello $30k+ debt). It's important to have these fully honest conversations before our wallets are perfect so other people can:
see how possible transformation is for their own lives
have insight for what to expect on their money manifestation journey (heads up, they're all different)
shift into the belief that it's supportive, not selfish, to get RICH
witness that becoming well-resourced (rich) is not out of touch with reality—but that it's actually benevolent towards ourselves & loved ones, that it's necessary for the evolution of our healing, and that it will bring innovation/creation to the destruction that the patriarchy has historically inflicted on our earth and within our psyches
You can still operate from a "rich" frequency or consciousness when the money seems (is) lacking. (We'll talk more about how to tackle this contradictory and seemingly-impossible feat soon). Matter of fact, that's when it's most important to practice the "wealthy woman" frequency, because that's when— in the present moment— you get the opportunity to rewire your beliefs and shift your engrained (scarce) money patterns, so that one day soon you actually can be rich.
Let's get this clear: rich doesn’t mean greedy.
Rich means: financially stable, yes, but furthermore: bountiful gratitude, calm, and having a feeling of “cushion,”—certainty within yourself that more money is always available (even when you can't see it). Rich is being well-resourced, trusting we're provided for, and being connected with our natural state of prosperity, presence and creative expression–not to mention being fulfilled in healthy romance(s), friendships and family ties, too. Being rich is also, of course, having the time-freedom to do what you want, when you want.
Learning how to tap into the feeling of being rich is learning how to feel worthy of asking for help, then gracefully receiving help, and living in that feeling of an exhale–a relaxing sigh of assurance. It's a gradual process of starting to see more avenues of money becoming available.
Don't get me wrong, this can be gnarly inner work when you've struggled with money for a lifetime. But it's really effective work and will undoubtedly elevate the quality of your life if you open your heart and mind to it enough.
Your relationship with wealth can drastically rearrange when you realize this:
The root of all evil isn't money or being rich. The root of all evil is being greedy. And greed comes from the fear of scarcity, and the fear of scarcity is just a survival mechanism, basic human programming, animal instinct. The greediest people are the most terrified and most emotionally disregulated people. They're completely out of tune with their creative nature that would naturally nourish them. They're completely out of tune with the feeling of security that could open them to healing their fears.
Some will argue that the fear of scarcity is valid—there are unhoused people on the streets, unfed children in our neighborhoods, financially struggling adults of all ages, and the list goes on.
What we don't talk about enough is:
This scarcity isn't because of lack of resources... it's because of the lack of distribution. These resources are being snatched and hoarded by a powerful few to markup and drive profits for their huge conglomerates, versus keeping resources like groceries, shelter, gas, etc., accessible and shared.
I'm not against selling goods and services, but I am against it when it's prioritizing profits (especially purposefully) over the livelihood of HUMAN PEOPLE, other creatures, our home Momma Earth, and her oceans.
Money is simply a tool, a resource, that amplifies more of what we already are. Money is not the root of all evil. Greed and the illusion of fear are the roots of all evil.
So the women that are intentional in their existence and centered in pleasure and creative in their expression...imagine what money would do for us and our dreams? That could never be greedy or evil.
Get your bag, sis.
