Why You Can’t “Fix” Your Money Relationship Overnight (and Why That’s Okay)

Why You Can’t “Fix” Your Money Relationship Overnight (and Why That’s Okay)

If you’ve ever wondered, “Why can’t I just figure out my relationship with money?” — you’re not alone. Maybe you’ve taken all the courses, tried every strategy, and still can’t seem to make it work. I get it. That was me for many years, and here’s what I’ve learned: healing your relationship with money isn’t about a single breakthrough. It’s an evolving process.

Money and the Mind

Your relationship with money is built on decades of mental and emotional conditioning—what I call “thought programs,” “belief programs,” and “mood states” around money. These aren’t things you can rewrite in a week. They live deep in your neural pathways, shaped by early experiences, survival instincts, and cultural stories. So please, stop beating yourself up. Nothing is wrong with you.

Healing comes through awareness and self-compassion—through showing up for yourself again and again, especially when it’s hard. I went from being completely broke and homeless to having $25,000 cash days in my business. And the real transformation didn’t happen from that one big win—it happened in all the moments I chose to keep going, to love myself through the chaos.

Compassion Changes Everything

If there’s one message I want you to take away, it’s compassion. Endless compassion. The kind that meets you exactly where you are on your journey—when you’re thriving and when you’re breaking down.

Your money journey will mirror your healing journey. There will be days of abundance and days that test your resilience. The key is to keep your heart open through both. Bring all your parts with you—the wounded ones too—because every part of you deserves safety and belonging.

The Rhythm of Your Soul

Think of your business and your bank account as part of a steady rhythm—the drumbeat of your soul. Some days that beat is soft, some days loud, but it’s always there. Keep moving toward your goals without rushing, staying compassionate when the fear or shutdown hits. Healing these patterns isn’t about speed; it’s about sustainability.

Soulful, purposeful money flows through love, self-respect, and alignment. When you let your soul’s voice lead—consistently, compassionately—everything else begins to respond. That’s the real transformation: learning to let your business, your body, and your money all dance to the same, steady, grounded beat.

Until next time SHINE on bright bright sweet soul!
