Episode 40: When You Feel Resistance to Working on Your Money
If you’ve ever felt that tightness in your chest when you sit down to look at your bank account… or found yourself avoiding your finances even when you know you should be paying attention...this episode is for you.
In this episode I unpack what resistance to money work really means and why it’s not a sign of failure, but an invitation. We will explore how resistance is a form of protection rooted in your nervous system, your past experiences, and generational conditioning around money and worth. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of why this happens and simple, compassionate ways to begin moving through resistance — gently and powerfully.
💡 In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Why resistance to money is a nervous system response, not a personal flaw.

🌹 Key Quotes:
“Resistance isn’t failure. It’s actually a signal — a sign that something inside you is ready to evolve.” “What you avoid holds power over you. The moment you turn toward it, that power starts to dissolve.” “Money is neutral. It’s not the villain or the savior — it’s a mirror reflecting your sense of safety and worth.”
