Up-level your Money Mindset
If you struggle with negative beliefs or emotions about money… you’re not alone!
Many, MANY women entrepreneurs deal with money mindset issues. A lot of this can be traced back to the ideas about money that we were raised with — think about those stereotypes of women being bad with money or overspending frivolously. Obviously, women are perfectly capable of managing their finances and building successful businesses, but how we think and feel about money affects the way we experience and use it.
Hint: even if you think you are free of money mindset issues, they can still pop up when you least expect it — like when you’re on a sales call, deciding how to price your offers, or even building your team.
It’s so important to change the way that women think about money, because healing our money mindsets makes it easier and more joyful to earn, grow, and yes — even spend it! Ready to learn some proven strategies for uplevelling your money mindset? Just press play!
In this episode, you’ll discover:
· How to pinpoint your location on the money mindset spectrum — and what this means for building your business
· 3 common negative statements that may be shaping your money mindset (and how to counter them!)
· 4 key areas in your business where you can create more positivity and focus in order to shift your money mindset — and how to get started!

Change Your Relationship with Money with Karen Choi
Money is the root of all evil.
I’m not good with money.
It’s not polite to talk about money.
Many women entrepreneurs subscribe to these negative beliefs, even if it’s unconscious. We want money, but we can feel disconnected from the idea of actually making it. If we think about wealth, we picture it belonging to people who don’t look like us. These beliefs are shaped in our childhoods and have a powerful effect on the way that we relate to money throughout our lives… and in the way we run our businesses. Many women are actually resistant to the idea of earning more revenue than what they need to survive!
If thinking about money makes you feel scared, uncomfortable, or ashamed, then it’s time for you to heal your money mindset.
In this episode, I talk to authenticity coach Karen Choi about how to develop a healthy relationship with money, feel more confident in pursuing wealth, and empower our children with the skills and knowledge they need to thrive financially.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
How generational, cultural, and religious beliefs impact the way that you think about money — and how to heal your family’s money mindsetHow to turn a wish for more revenue into action items or habits that will help you get there How to take a joyful, aligned approach to money and make earning (and managing it) fun!
About Karen Choi: Karen is an authenticity coach who works one-to-one with professionals who value authenticity in their life choices, career moves, relationships, and creative outputs. She is a mom of two and the host of The Secret Muse Society podcast.

Fake It Till You Make It
“Fake it till you make it.” As popular as this expression is, a lot of people feel a lot of resistance to the idea of “faking it.” Faking it can feel false, inauthentic, or even dishonest. But at its core, “fake it till you make it” is a powerful way to tap into The Law of Attraction.
The Law of Attraction is the idea that we can attract the things we want into our lives through giving them our attention and energetically willing them to happen. This isn’t just a metaphysical idea, it also works on a psychological level! What we believe has a huge effect on how we act — and by truly opening ourselves up to new possibilities, we actually make them more probable.
New possibilities such as landing that amazing client you’ve been dreaming about, being paid what you’re really worth, and becoming a thought leader in your niche.
In this episode, I share specific steps that will help you get into the right mindset to attract the things you want the most. You are never going to feel 100% ready to take on new challenges… but if you’re ready to master the art of faking it till you make it, press play!
In this episode, you’ll discover:
How I used the “fake it till you make it” approach to purchase my dream condo — even though I couldn’t afford it The 3 most common areas where women entrepreneurs benefit from faking it till they make it How to transform from “business owner” to “thought leader” and stand apart from the pack
