    Breaking Money Cycles: Why You Can't Stop Putting Others First With Money

    What would happen if you stopped holding all the responsibility with money? If you weren't the rescuer or the provider, the generous one - would people still value you and would you still matter? That may sound like a rather odd question, but right now there are thousands of people searching terms like "Why do I always put others first with money?" and "How do I stop feeling guilty spending money on myself?" because so many of us are trapped in what I refer to as the caretaker money cycle, where your mind and your body have literally learnt that giving money away equals safety, love, and worthiness. And that programming is essentially bankrupting your future. Whether you're a business owner who's paying everybody else's salary before your own, a mother funding your adult children's lives whilst living on scraps, a partner who ignores your own needs to keep the peace, or perhaps somebody supporting an aged parent at the expense of your own retirement - the scenario changes, but the pattern is the same. Today, I'm going to show you why financial caretaker exhaustion isn't about being generous, and I'm going to give you an emotional toolkit exercise to help you break free from these cycles, along with some practical steps as well.

    Breaking Money Cycles: Debt, Shame and Forgiveness

    If money has been feeling rather heavy for you recently, or maybe you're waking up in the middle of the night worrying about money, I want you to first of all know that you are not alone and there is absolutely nothing wrong with you if you have debts. This episode is specifically about debt and shame, and I'm going to be sharing what happened for me when I was in £35,000 of debt - a story I've rarely told publicly because of the deep shame I carried around it for years. The truth is, debt isn't just about the numbers on a statement; it's about the weight of secrecy, the fear of judgement, and the exhausting cycle of hiding your financial reality whilst trying to maintain a successful exterior. Today, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own debt journey, why shame keeps us trapped in destructive patterns, and the exact steps that helped me break free - not just from the debt itself, but from the suffocating belief that owing money meant I was fundamentally broken.

    Breaking Money Cycles: Why You Make Your Worst Financial Decisions When You're Overwhelmed

    Have you ever felt so overwhelmed by a money decision that you've Googled "best savings account," opened 17 tabs, read 18 articles, and ended up way more confused than when you started? Here's the trap we all fall into: when we're stressed about money, we think the answer is more information - one more podcast, one more YouTube video, one more expert opinion that will finally make it all make sense. But that information is actually making the overwhelm worse. Today, as a former financial adviser with 20 years of experience, I'm showing you what's actually happening in your brain when you try to make decisions whilst feeling overwhelmed, and why the best thing you can do for your finances might be to stop consuming and start clearing. Research shows we're processing the equivalent of 174 newspapers worth of information every single day, and when we're in information overload, our decision-making shifts from our considered mind to our reactive, survival-orientated brain - which is pretty catastrophic when it comes to making sound financial choices.

    Breaking Money Cycles: Why You Hide from Your Numbers (And How to Build Financial Courage)

    I've spent the last 10 years trying to find the perfect financial management system for my business and personal finances, and here's what I've discovered: it doesn't matter which system you implement if the one thing avoiding the numbers is you. As a qualified financial advisor and somatic money expert, I can tell you with absolute certainty that financial avoidance has nothing to do with lack of financial education - it's a protection response your body has learned. When you retrain that response, money stops feeling like a threat and starts feeling like simple, neutral information. Today, I'm guiding you through one simple somatic money practice that will prove to your body and mind that money is safe, and I'm sharing how I went from three months of complete avoidance to checking my numbers daily with curiosity, joy, and ease. Because here's the truth: you can have all the financial knowledge in the world, but if you can't look at your numbers, you can't use any of it.

    Breaking Money Cycles: Why You Self-Sabotage When Things Go Well

    Have you ever achieved a major financial milestone - landed a big client, hit a revenue goal, or finally built up your savings - only to watch yourself systematically self-sabotage it within weeks? Maybe you suddenly took on underpriced work, made an impulsive expensive purchase, or created some drama that torpedoed your success. If this sounds familiar, I need you to understand something crucial: this isn't weakness, it's not a character flaw, and it's not lack of willpower. This is your nervous system literally treating financial success like a threat to your existence.  Right now, thousands of people are searching terms like "why do I self-sabotage when things go well" or "why can't I hold onto money" because they're experiencing what I call success dysregulation - where your body cannot tolerate the feeling of having more, so it creates chaos to bring you back to the familiarity of struggle.  Today, I'm diving into why you might be getting 80% of the way to your financial goals and then something just happens, and more importantly, how to rewire your nervous system so you can finally keep what you've created. Chapters 00:00 Understanding Financial Self-Sabotage 02:46 The Role of the Nervous System in Money Management 05:52 Success Dysregulation: The Fear of Holding Success 08:35 Patterns of Self-Sabotage in Financial Success 11:22 Exploring the Three Money Zones 14:00 Common Patterns of Financial Dysregulation 17:06 Somatic Practices for Financial Success 19:51 Rewiring Your Nervous System for Success 22:11 Creating a Safe Space for Financial Growth 25:12 The Journey Towards Financial Empowerment Resources: Get my FREE book 'It's Not About The Money' Take the Money StoryTypes® Quiz Sign up to my FREE Newsletter Become a Certified Financial Coach Get my FREE "5 Hidden Money Beliefs" Framework for Coaches.

    Breaking Money Cycles: Financial Trauma - The Hidden Cost of Being the Affordable Option

    If you've ever caught yourself saying "I don't want to price myself out of the market" or felt that familiar guilt creeping in when considering raising your prices, you're about to discover why being the affordable option is actually a financial trauma response. The hidden cost of undercharging isn't just the money you're leaving on the table - it's the cycle of resentment, exhaustion, and trauma responses that keep you trapped in patterns of unworthiness. In my book "It's Not About The Money," I explore how under-earning often starts as a trauma response where we overwork to prove ourselves, yet still feel undeserving. Today, I'm diving into why you've learned that charging less keeps you safe from rejection, but what's really happening is that every time you undercharge, you're training your body to believe you're worth less. This belief doesn't just affect your pricing - it rewires how you show up in every area of your life, creating a perfect storm where all three money zones get hijacked simultaneously. Chapters 00:00 Understanding the Cost of Undercharging 03:14 Exploring the Three Money Zones 05:48 Identifying Symptoms of Under-Earning 09:43 The Impact of Money Trauma 14:08 Body Work and Emotional Connection 19:25 Shifting Perspectives on Pricing Resources: Get my FREE book 'It's Not About The Money' Take the Money StoryTypes® Quiz Sign up to my FREE Newsletter Become a Certified Financial Coach Get my FREE "5 Hidden Money Beliefs" Framework for Coaches.

    Breaking Money Cycles: Why You Feel Broke Even When You Have Money (10-Minute Daily Fix)

    Have you ever looked at your bank account and thought "this should feel like enough," yet still felt that familiar knot of anxiety in your stomach whenever money came up? You're absolutely not alone in this experience.  This week, I'm diving deep into why you can feel broke even when you have money - and it has nothing to do with the actual numbers in your account. The real culprit? Your nervous system and how it's been programmed to recognise what feels "safe" around money. If you grew up hearing "we can't afford that" or witnessed your parents stress about finances, your body has been encoded with those scarcity patterns, even if you're now financially secure as an adult.  Today, I'm sharing the 10-minute daily practice that completely rewired my relationship with worthiness and abundance - because the truth is, you can't think your way out of feeling unworthy, you have to feel your way into a new reality.
