Today we're talking to a brujería. Depending on how you grew up, that word might feel like home or it might make you nervous. Wendy Mata, founder of Bruja Power Botanica and author of Bruja Curandera, spent 20 years in cybersecurity and digital forensics before a Día de los Muertos dream from her late grandmother changed everything. Now she runs a seven-figure business teaching people to reclaim their magic. We get into money programming, why wanting more isn't selfish, how money spells actually work, and how to pair spiritual practice with real financial action.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
→ Spirituality without action is just wishing. Pair mindset and ritual with real moves
→ Dios siempre quiere. The support is there, but you have to do the work
→ When wanting money feels selfish, try: "The more money I make, the more people I can help"
→ Releasing limiting beliefs isn't enough. Decide what you'll believe instead
→ Ask for help. If you don't ask, you already have the no
→ Struggling isn't a mindset failure. Systemic barriers are real, and abundance goes beyond money
→ You're allowed to charge for your gifts
