I used to think undercharging was a pricing problem. It wasn't.
In this episode I get real about my own relationship with money, why I spent years unconsciously sabotaging myself every time life got hard, and where that pattern actually started. A few years ago I went to therapy for some health issues, and it went a lot deeper than that. My therapist helped me see I'd had a really bad relationship with money since I was six years old, the year my mom left to find work in another country because we didn't have enough.
For years I unconsciously related money with abandonment. If we'd had enough, maybe she never would have had to leave. So money became the reason for everything painful in my life, and that belief just sat there, hidden, running everything, until I finally wrote it a letter.
We talk about money as energy, why artists (myself included) undercharge out of fear, the reticular activating system and why you keep noticing what you focus on, and why money isn't the enemy, it just amplifies whoever you already are.
If you've ever felt stuck in the same money patterns no matter what you do, this one's for you.
