Thought provoking
Who doesn’t have issues around money?! As a therapist who was used to working for a salary turned self-employed (life) coach, I’ve been stuck with how to proceed with pricing my services. Mel gives you thought provoking questions to challenge the beliefs about money that hold you back, giving space to shift your mindset to one of abundance. I highly recommend this podcast for anyone looking for support in challenging their current thoughts to form new behaviors!

No matter what Job you have or stage you are in, the topics are so relevant. Love Mel’s advice and attitude - so real.
