Welcome to Detoxing from The Matrix, the podcast where we talk all things awakening, ascension, consciousness, and the recovery of self, soul, and spirit from being strung out on the greatest drug of all, the external matrix. This is a place for illuminating conversations that will take you from divided to divine pain into purpose, and suffering into sovereignty, where we detox the fuck out of your mind, body, and soul from the limited programs of separation, lack, scarcity, struggle, and pain. I'm your host, Lindsay Care Cardi, and this podcast is for all the rebel souls who seek to live deeply, authentically and fully expressed. Welcome, welcome. It's Lindsay here, your favorite new thought, spiritual practitioner, mental projector, and all around glitch in the nature. Welcome to another divine download of Detoxing from The Matrix podcast, where today's episode we are talking about shifting your money reality in the face of lack and scarcity. And yes, this is a follow up. It is a partner to what we discussed last week in the it's time to Get high on Your Own Supply of Abundance episode. So these two episodes definitely go hand in hand, whereas last episode, we really got into the energetics and the metaphysics of abundance and prosperity and really being able to unleash that truth from within yourself. Well, today I'm going to break on down how to shift your money reality when you are actively in the midst of experiencing the lack or the scarcity or the inability to pay bills or the seeming not enoughness of your money supply. Okay? Because this has been inspired not just by my own journey and my own frustration as I shifted my own money reality over the past few years, but the journey of so many of you people in my communities, people who message me all of the time, oh, my God, I want to work with you, but I really don't have the money. I can't pay my rent right now. What do I do? How do I handle this? How do I navigate this? My clients, who are obviously not in the position of not being able to pay their rent right now, but still having that struggle of like, yes, money is coming in, but how do I now amplify this into more? So I really wanted to stand here with 2ft on the ground in the quote unquote, real world, the physical world, the world of experience, the world of form, the world of effect that we are living in, because I 100%. Want to honor and recognize the fact that it can be such a pivotal and powerful time in your life and your journey when you are at that crossroads of knowing your higher abundance but you haven't yet experienced it in your bank account. And I want to just recognize that it can be a challenging time, right? I fully honor and recognize everything that it brings up when you are looking at your bank account and there is not enough money in there, when you know you have been busting your ass or working really hard on something or you feel like you've just made a bunch of money, but then where does it all go? And I really want to just acknowledge that aspect of the journey because I really do feel like it is an aspect of the journey that doesn't get talked about a lot, right? We hear all these overnight success stories and oh, I went from broke to rich or I couldn't pay my bills and now I'm a millionaire. Don't get me wrong, all of those stories are amazing and they're inspiring and anything is possible because anything is possible, right? I really want to acknowledge that anything is possible. And I really think we're doing ourselves a massive disservice when we are not more open and honest about 1s how messy it can look when we're actually actively shifting generational stories of lack of scarcity and poverty and generational bad habits of bad good. You know what I mean? Right? Negative habits, like habits that keep you in lack and scarcity because they're not the behaviors and habits of someone who sees themselves as a wealthy person. So I want to acknowledge all of that and I want to break on down today, very practically, how you can navigate this experience and how I navigated it. And I'm going to be real candid with you all and share little bits of my story that maybe some of you have heard, maybe you haven't heard yet, and just talk about what it took for me to actually be here, where I am now, where I make comfortable multiple five figures a month. My husband makes great money, right? We're stewards for our money. We track our money, we invest our money, we have money. And we're no longer in this cycle of feast or famine. Feast or famine. We have all this money and then it's all gone. We have all this money and then it's all gone. So there's a lot of different cycles and patterns that can play out with money and we're going to talk about all that today as well as how to shift it when you're staring at your bank account and it really seems like there's not enough. So first and foremost, I recognize all of you, right? I recognize all of you. Let's take a deep breath in together, just placing your hands on your heart for a moment. Let's just get into that heartbrain coherence and let's just be here now. So a nice deep breath in. 1s And exhaling it out and just recognizing in this moment that there is this powerful chord, this powerful connection between all of us. It is all of us. And this connection is the truth of all things. Because what I know is at the core of our being, we are all one. It is one spirit, one source, one infinite creator playing out through each and every one of us. I'm it, you're it. We're all it. And I just declare there today a conversation of expansive abundance, a conversation of potential, a conversation that lights up the places within you that says, yes, I can. Yes, I am. I see the truth. I remember who I am. So, as I just welcome you to today's episode, I want to first and foremost acknowledge the work you've been doing, acknowledge each and every one of you for how you show up, right? Even just taking the time and the space to listen to this podcast, or if you're reading a book or a lot of you come to the calls in my Facebook community, 1s that's an investment. You may not yet see if you're really in the money struggle still, or you're having the experience of lack and scarcity in your bank account, you may not understand yet that there are a lot of valuable things that you can invest in that don't have to do with you investing your money yet, right? What you choose to do with your time is an investment. What you choose to do with your energy is an investment, right? What you consume is an investment. And so when you are sitting. Or driving or doing whatever you're doing, and you're listening to something like this podcast that expands you and gets you into a higher consciousness state and into your full potential. That is an investment trust and believe that, okay? And in a little bit, we're going to talk about 1s how your bank account is a reflection of your past consciousness. And what you're doing now is informing your current and future, your bank account, and how you're going to be able to trust that. And part of that trust is recognizing that when you choose to do something like listen to a podcast, you 100% are investing in your consciousness. All right? So first and foremost, a little bit of a story to just kind of set the tone here and really establish that I know what I'm talking about. Because this has been my life. So throughout my life, if you guys know, right? I struggled with drug addiction. I struggled with depression, anxiety. I was total feast or famine all through the decade of my twenty s. I got sober. I had such a guilt complex, and I felt so terrible about myself deep down, my subconscious command was, I'm a loser. So when I got sober, I launched into like this. 1s Paradigm of I have to prove I'm not a loser. So I overworked. I busted my ass. I hustled. I refused to ask for help. And yes, I sometimes make lots of money as a bartender and a waitress. And I was able to travel and I had no idea how to manage my money or be a steward to money. I would be afraid to look at my bank account, right? I wouldn't balance my checkbook for weeks on end and then I would be afraid to see what was in there. And every time I would look and there would be a couple of $100 extra, I would be pleasantly surprised and I would take that as an indication to go and spend it. Who can relate, right? So that all went on. That all went on. And then of course, I had the periods in my 20s where I would totally burn down my life and I was completely unemployable and getting kicked out and evicted and I couldn't feed myself. And all of this, you know, this this spiral was happening where everything was being stripped away that was allowing me to justify that I was still functioning as an addict. Okay? So then I finally got sober for the last time. That was in my early thirty s. And again I launched into this like I have to now bust my ass. I have to hustle. I'm not worthy of asking for help. I now have to like prove, right? I have to dig myself out of this hole. And I did the same thing. And the first year of my sobriety, I made a lot of cash in a short amount of time. And it's so funny because at that point in my life I couldn't even have a bank account because I had destroyed my credit. I had gotten in trouble, frauding, the banks and my addiction, it was this whole mess, right? So the banks wouldn't even give me a bank account, couldn't get a credit card. And I was basically operating under one of them. I had a sock draw full of cash. And then I had one of those debit cards where it's like it's just linked to cash, right? If you put cash on it, you can use it. If there's no cash on it, you can't use the debit card. And that was the way I lived for a couple of years when I first got sober till I started making my men's and cleaning up all my mess and doing all of that stuff. So a couple of years later later I started a job. My first salaried job ever, okay? And the 40 hours a week I was working, which was often more like 50 plus, my commute had me feeling very burnt out, very frustrated, very resentful. My salary was only $45,000 a year. Not a lot of money, especially in La County. I lived in Long Beach, California, and so it wasn't a ton of money. Now, we didn't spend a lot of money, so we were able to save if we wanted to go on vacation. But we weren't living this like, oh, we can do whatever we want. Luxurious lifestyle that deep down within me I really wanted to be living. 1s And that was kind of one of the things that drove me into starting my own business, right? I thought when I started my own business that I was doing it because I would be able to make a lot of money, I would be able to make an impact and I would be able to have a more free schedule. The truth of it, those things were the carrots that my higher self or my soul was dangling in front of me. The money, the freedom, the impact, that was the carrots. My higher self was dangling to get me to take action. The truth of it was I was being led into starting my own business because that was going to be the greatest, deepest, most liberating spiritual journey I have ever been on. It was going to liberate me from the money matrix, it was going to liberate me from the slave grid matrix, it was going to liberate me from the matrix. All because I thought I just wanted to make an impact and make really good money doing what I was good at. I didn't know it was the journey of my soul that was unfolding through that. So, long story short, here we are now, through my journey as a business owner, I was not financially literate. I did not understand money management, I did not understand business management. I didn't have a background in business or marketing or finance or any of the things that traditional business owners sort of learn and go to school for. I was totally winging it, okay? And early on in the piece, I found my way to all of the spiritual teachings, the abundance, all of the stuff that I talk about, and I'm telling you, is real, right? The truth of our nature is abundance. And from my own journey, I have fully come to recognize that if we do not pair this skill set of being a steward to money, along with our belief in abundance and our trust in the universe and we do not believe in ourselves and understand that we have valuable and marketable skills and gifts that are worth money and we don't learn how to be the standard for this is what I am worth. This is what I am demanding for my own pay or my own salary or my own rates. If you're in business for yourself, well, then all of that fluffy abundance stuff will remain. Just that fluffy abundance stuff. So the trouble that I got into is I was 100% operating from magical thinking and I was spending money and I was investing in coaching programs that were way beyond my means, right? Keep in mind, I did not have another job while I was building my business to back up and live on, right? So pretty much everything I was making in my business, I needed to live on. 1s So I had no business at that point in time investing in 5000, 10,000 and $15,000 coaching programs because it just wasn't a vibrational match. I had no business being in that level of a container when I didn't even know how I was paying, you know, my bills half the time, right? I didn't know how I was making my credit card payments half the time, so but because what happened was all of the living on credit because there wasn't a steady income coming in, created all of this debt that we were then buried underneath. And it just became like this hamster wheel of like, oh, when I finally have that big ten k month, when I finally have that big ten k month and guess what? It wasn't happening. Every time I would have a five k month and eight k months, the money would come in and be gone so fast. I was exhausted. I couldn't keep up. So it was not the condition to be able to hold fast to the frequency of abundance. Okay, you guys getting this? Like, are you guys feeling this? So time and time again, we would get loans and we would consolidate and we would do all these things and it would be like, okay, now we're going to change the score. Guess what? Six months later, we would be back in the same place again. Why? Because we weren't grounded in reality of what was actually coming in. We weren't behaving like, stewards to money. We were not tracking our money. We weren't tracking what was coming in. We were just flying by the seat of our pants, acting as though we had $100,000 sitting in our bank account ready to be spent at all times. And we were behaving that way, and we were doing that with credit. 1s And then the credit card bills would come in, we'd pay them, and then cash would come in, and we would spend even more. And it was just this whole mess. Okay? And it was really, really frustrating and discouraging because on one hand, I really, truly felt the truth in abundance as the truth of the universe. I felt the truth in abundance and prosperity as a gift of of life, right? I could see the abundance and the prosperity all around me. So then when I would look at my bank account and there would be this constant stress and struggle around money, 1s I would wonder if I was crazy. I would doubt myself. I would feel really discouraged, and I would go through this whole cycle of wanting to just walk away from my business and go get a job and but I knew that I wouldn't be happy if I did that, so I didn't, and I stuck with it. Okay? The point in sharing this story is to illustrate that it can all shift and it can all change. Right? The point is what I was creating. 1s Was a reflection of my own consciousness around money. You see, while I was creating all of that, I believed in abundance and prosperity for the universe, but I didn't quite yet believe in it for me. I didn't quite yet recognize it could happen for me. And as a result of that, I didn't see myself as a wealthy person. I didn't see myself as a person in who has money and is good with money. So I didn't behave as one. I still didn't want to look at my finances. I didn't want to look at what was in the bank account. I would just spend money. And 1s it doesn't work that way, right? It doesn't work. Because here's the thing. It all comes down to identity. If in the core frequency of your being, in your subconscious mind, you do not believe that you are somebody with money or you have hang ups about money, money isn't safe. I can't handle it. It's too much. Anytime money comes in, you are going to subconsciously create scenarios and circumstances for the money to go out. You're either going to spend it consciously by choice or you're going to subconsciously create car breakdowns, injuries, surgeries, emergencies. Oh, my God. A freaking golf ball just flew through my window and now I need a new window. Oh, my God, a bird dropped a tree onto my hat. It's going to be the most weird stuff that you weren't expecting and planning for. Why? Because in the core of your being, you do not identify yourself as somebody with money. This was me. This was my husband. We were not. That right. So plenty of money was flowing in and we were spending even more because we weren't being honest with ourselves about what was coming in. We were spending from a place of what we wish was coming in. That's not sustainable, you guys. It's not sustainable. Right? So if we want to build a dam or a bridge that is sustainable, it has to be built properly. And one of the biggest gaps in the spiritual coaching world is that people are not having the conversation about what it actually takes to build a bridge from lack of scarcity, lifetimes of lack and scarcity, generational lack and scarcity into abundance. Right? You have people like myself who came from generational lack and scarcity and struggle trying to listen to business coaches who have never had a money issue in their life. It doesn't add up. That person can't show me how to build a bridge because they've never built it. It's not a judgment. I'm not making them wrong. I'm happy for them that they have other. 1s Areas of mastery. That's the point, you guys. We all have our own areas of mastery. But if you are trying to learn mastery or build a bridge from someone who hasn't had to build that bridge, they can't help you build that bridge. That's the point, right? And a lot of this perpetuates, this magical thinking, oh, look, I'm just going to go over here and learn this thing or work with this coach and all of a sudden the money's going to flow in. Guess what? If deep in the core of your being, you don't perceive that it's safe for you to have money, you're not going to let the money pour in, okay? That's why I'm sharing this story. So you guys can recognize this and recognize that you're not alone and recognize that 100% there is hope. Because that's no longer my money reality. Now. Now my money reality is very stable. It's very secure, it's very predictable. Even though in my business itself, my sales each month fluctuate. I'm not going to sit here and tell you every month is a ten K month or a 15K month or a 20. I don't have the energy for that 100%. I am a mental projector in human design. I am not designed to be pumping out and performing in a way that's going to generate that kind of sales every month. Okay? 2s What my sales do. Fluctuate is everywhere between $5,000 a month to $15,000 a month, depending on what I have going on, what I'm offering. And to back that up, my husband and I sit down every single week and we track our finances and we see what we're spending on. We see what's coming in. We look at our expenses. We look at where we can clean it up. We make a plan, right? So it's like like we're no longer operating from this idea that we have to have a budget because there's not enough. But we track it. We are stewards to our money. We are stewards to our money. And this is where I really want to talk about how you get there, how I got there, because 100%, it doesn't matter. You guys, I was $45,000 in debt, right? And every other month, the bank account was going negative again, and I was cursing off Wells Fargo because how could they charge me $30 when I already don't have enough money? I already don't have enough money, and you want to charge me money for not having enough money? I felt like a victim. Okay, so it doesn't matter what you are experiencing. You 100% can shift your money. Reality first and foremost. So the first thing you are going to do right here, right now, today, is take full ownership over where you are and what you have created when it comes to your money. If you cannot take ownership over your current money reality, you can't shift it. This is why in The Matrix rehab membership, one of the first foundational modules that everybody does when they join the membership, is an activation around this very thing. Because if you are going to change something, you have to take ownership over it. If you are low key in a victim mindset or blame about where you are and what you've created, you're going to be stuck there until you're ready to let that go. So if you're mad at the government, if you're mad at the IRS, if you're mad at your boss, if you're mad at some other group because you're not part of that group, and you perceive that I don't care. You guys, I don't care 100%. I was someone who spent my life feeling disempowered around this because I was so in the view of, like, oh, the elites and the 1% and they control the money and the system is designed no, no and no. The system is designed to reflect whatever the fuck you believe about yourself and money. That's what it's designed to do. The elites and the 1% and the people that we perceive have all of this power. They are a reflection of the consciousness within each one of us that believes that we are a victim. So right here, right now, take ownership over where you are, what you've created, the mess, the debt, take ownership over all of it. This can be confronting because it is a blow to the ego, right? It is the ego that wants to sit there and blame everybody else but your damn self about your money habits, your willingness to work, your work ethic and all of that. Do. We have a lot of healing to do around work and what it is? Yes, we do, 100%. But we also have to be willing to work. We have to be willing to bring value. We have to be willing to develop ourselves in order to be worthy of being paid for our goods, our services, our performance, what we do, our gifts, our skills, our guidance. Okay? So number one, get your pen and paper. Take ownership over where you are and what you've created. Look right at all of it, all of the dirty details, and recognize and take ownership over it. It's nobody's fault but yours. Number two, stop all shame and judgment and simply recognize that what you have created is a reflection of your past money consciousness, and it can shift. Right now, your past consciousness does not have to continue to inform your future bank account unless you allow it to. Okay, so you recognized, oh, this is my past consciousness. I forgive myself. I forgive myself. I forgive myself. I forgive myself for not knowing better. I forgive myself for not doing better. I didn't know better. I couldn't do better. I am ready to know better and do better now and recognize that that is putting money in the bank, right? What you are doing right here, right now, during these steps is depositing into, like an IRA, right? It's going to be available. It's going to open up to you. But you have to deposit and deposit and deposit in your consciousness first. Okay? So you recognize that you forgive yourself. Number three, you take responsibility, right? Responsibility is different than ownership. So you can take ownership, but then still kind of just look at it and be like, what am I supposed to do with this? Responsibility is initiative, right? And by responsibility, I mean you start cleaning up. You track your spending. You learn how to be a steward to money, right? This is what we're doing all next month in the Matrix, rehab membership. So get in there. It'll help you. The point is, instead of hiding, instead of avoiding, you get on the phone with the people you owe money to. You tell them your situation. You create a plan. You get into communication. You actively open yourself up in your spirit and in your prayers for direction, for solutions, for guidance. Become willing to take out a loan to consolidate, if that will help, right? This isn't financial advice. This is just what I did. But clean up what you've been doing. Address what's going on. Don't avoid it. Don't avoid it. Get yourself into the right mind, the right spirit, the right energy. Sit down, track your spending, track what's coming in, and get a really clear picture for your habits, okay? This is how you start to become steward to money. Nothing can change until you do this. Number four. 1s You assess where you're currently at, okay? You can't assess where you're currently at if you haven't tracked it and measured it. Right? What is the harsh reality? Like, am I really in lack of scarcity because I have a bigger mortgage than what's coming in? Like, what is my current real life situation? Can I feed myself? Do I have a roof over my head? Can I pay my mortgage? Can I pay my electricity? And can I buy food? Right? If the answer to those things are no, then you are in, like, an Er level state, right? Like, it's triage. Like, you need to go out and get work and get money flowing before you can think about starting to invest on a higher level in yourself or really hold the frequency of abundance. Right? Be willing to work for the short term to grease the wheels and get the energy flowing. Because if you're in that triage state, if somebody comes in to an Er and they have a bullet wound in their leg and, I don't know, a broken finger or a toothache, the bullet wound needs to be addressed first. Right? And if your current reality is that you can't pay for your home, your food, your electricity, like, basic survival needs, that's like a gunshot wound. You need to address that before you even think about trying to join coaching, join memberships, get into the frequency of abundance. Right? Address that ship first. Get a plan, track your finances, get money flowing, pray, meditate, get into the spiritual alignment and let those solutions come forth. But you have to be willing to move and work too. Okay? On the other side of the assessing is like, okay, cool. Like, if my survival needs are met, yes. But money just still feels tight. It still feels like I'm constantly in Scarcity because there is a difference between being in Scarcity. I can't pay my bills and my basic survival needs and being in Scarcity story, which is like it just constantly feels like I don't have enough, but everything is always paid for and yet it always seems like I never have enough. Right? That's scarcity, too, but it's a different kind of scarcity. And I promise you, if you're in that kind of scarcity, the moment you become a steward to money and you start tracking your habits and your spending and start looking at where your money is actually going, you will immediately start to free up more money simply because you're paying attention and you're being intentional. Okay, so those are the real things. And then, of course, on the opposite end of that spectrum is like, yes, plenty of money is coming in, and I'm just sloppy with it, so it's all over the place. I don't know what I have. I actually have a savings account with $20,000 in it, but I keep telling myself I can't afford that stuff because, believe it or not, I hear it all the time time people will literally tell me, oh, my God. I really want to work with you. I need this breakthrough. I need. I need this breakthrough. Okay, cool. You want to do one on one? That's $5,000. Oh, no, I can't afford that. I don't want to tap into my savings because there is a big difference between I don't want to get uncomfortable and tap into my savings and I can't afford that. Stop lying to yourselves. Okay? So that's where assessing where you're at step is really about. It's about you all getting a real clear fucking picture sure. On what you actually got going on. So you can stop lying to yourself. Because all you're doing when you're telling yourself you can't afford it, but you actually have money, if you are going to create a scenario and an outcome down the line where that money goes out and you really can't afford it, you're just going to be so miserable with a bunch of money that you never let yourself enjoy. Okay, 2s real talk. You guys would be amazed at the things I hear from people. Okay. Online number five. Find your discipline to spend within your current means while holding to the knowing your abundance is coming. Okay. This is one of the most empowering things that I did when I made a commitment, because I had a couple of coaching programs I was still paying off. I could have just paid them off, which would have used up a large sum of money that we have in our Buffer account. And I didn't really want to do that. So I was like, I'll keep the plans, the loans. But I made a commitment to myself that I was not going to invest in any more high ticket coaching for a little while until those loans had been paid off, and that was that. And I made that commitment to myself because the squeeze of either 1s spending what I have or adding another loan payment, it's like debt isn't the bad guy. It's not a terrible thing to have debt. It's how you are using it. Right. It's are you using it responsibly and in a way that empowers and expands you, or is it owning you? Are you a slave to it? Okay, so because I made a commitment about six months ago to not make any large purchases until Chris and I had met a couple of other financial goals, because this was about us knowing what our financial goals were. And one of our big financial goals is saving up enough money to buy a chunk of land and build the home that we want to have on that land. Okay. So I can continue to exist in the moment and think, I need this thing and that thing and this vacation. Yeah, cool. Or I can keep my eye on the bigger picture and let all of those smaller things in everyday life fill themselves out. Right. The thing is, because I've decided not to make any large purchases for six months 1s does not mean mean that I feel like I am in lack and scarcity anymore. See, I used to make. If I can't buy this thing, I'm in lack of scarcity. So then I would buy the thing, and I would create more lack of scarcity for myself. Now, I have a plan, and we have a formula, and we know what's going on, and we're tracking it, right? We're cocreating with our money reality while also completely being open to the fact that our money reality could dump double tomorrow. It could double next week. I could have the biggest month of sales in my life. He could make a killing on the stock market, right? There's no limit to what can shift. And if that was to happen, right, if in the next week, I'm going to tell you guys real life how we would handle this, right? If over the next two weeks, say I had a $30,000 launch and he made $20,000 on the stock market, just say we would then before running out and spending, we would sit down, and we would stick to our weekly finance meeting, and we would look at, okay, what does this mean for us? 1s Where is this money best used? Okay, cool. We're going to take this and put it over here. We're going to take this and put it over there. Take this. Because we're commanding it. We're managing it. We're being stewards to it. Do you guys get that? Awesome. We're going to book our flights for Australia in December, right? Like, whatever it might be, instead of the other sort of plebby, if you will. Like, I'm going to fly by the seat of my pants. I see something shiny object. I got to buy this thing. Because you're constantly making it mean something when you can't buy something, right? So the last step is to stop making any of it mean anything. Your bank account balance right now doesn't mean anything about you. What you've created, it doesn't mean anything but what you make it mean. Whether or not you can invest in a program or a new car, it doesn't mean anything. It doesn't mean anything but what you make it mean. Stop putting meaning upon all of it and just be where you are. Just be where you are and remain open to the fact that it can change. This is mastery, you guys. This is mastery. It will be the most worthwhile journey you will take. It will be the most worthwhile journey you will take. In closing, just food for thought. And this isn't pressure to join my membership. This is a story to illustrate how much people actually want to stay stuck in lack of scarcity. I talk to people all the time who think that they want to coach with me on the higher end, and then they get the price. I'm not really ready to spend that. I don't want to spend that much money. I don't have that much. Okay, cool. Well, if you have a money story, right? And then I say that I'm like, if you have a money story and $1,000 feels like too much for you to invest in yourself, your business right now. I have something that can help you with that. I have a membership for 40. $47 a month less than the price, a cup of coffee a day, $47 a month, where you are going to get strategic action, healing, and a plan to completely shift your money reality so that you can stop feeling like $1,000 is too much money. Do you want to join? And they fucking run away. And they run away. Now, I'm not saying join my membership if $47 a month is a stretch for you, please don't join my membership. Right? That's triage. Membership is not for you if you have a bullet wound. 1s Right? But the point is fucking so many people and this isn't a judgment, you guys. I'm laughing because it's funny. It's just absurd and it's funny. But so many people in the world think they're not doing something because of money, but then they get given an opportunity and a solution that is very affordable and they're still not ready to move, which says you're not ready to have a different money experience. Because people who see themselves as wealthy, that's the difference between people who see themselves as wealthy and people who don't. People who see themselves as wealthy are solution oriented. When a solution presents itself, they take it. People who don't see themselves as wealthy will constantly stay in the problem and are addicted to the drama of the problem. So that is food for thought today. I hope you guys enjoyed this episode. Super potent, super good. Go back through, listen to those steps. I would love to hear from you, your breakthroughs, your ahas, what came from you. I will leave the link to the Matrix Rehab membership in the episode. Notes for this video, if any of you do want to come and join us. Super potent, super powerful. And here's what I know to be true, you guys. Abundance is your birthright. Abundance is your truth. Abundance is out there. It's your nature, it's who you are. And you have to become so deeply willing within yourself to be the commander of your value. The world does not owe you money. The world is abundant. The earth is abundant. You could go out into the woods and support yourself and you would have everything you need to survive and thrive, to feed yourself, clothe yourself, nourish yourself, protect yourself. Money is its own frequency, and the world does not owe you money, okay? The world does not owe you money. That's the Marxist socialist bullshit. That money should just get handed out for free and wealthy people should just give away their money. No, because money is earned. Money is an exchange, okay? But money is not earned because of whether or not you're worthy. Money is earned as a means of exchange because you have brought a valuable contribution, a product, service, a guidance, a perspective. It's not related to work in the sense of the old school slave grid. If you do not recognize within yourself that you have value and you bring value, it could be in your art it could be in your teachings it could be in your writings it could be in your coaching it could be in your career the only one that needs to recognize. That you bring value to the world is you. When you recognize that, you will command in exchange of money. Coming to you for that. I know that it's probably going to trigger some people, but that's okay. It's my perspective, it's my understanding, and I'm sticking to it. This is why money is one of my favorite things to talk about. You guys. It's there, it's yours. It's waiting for you. Do the work to recognize that you bring value. Develop yourself, market yourself, believe in yourself. Do these steps to clean up your act and become a steward to money. I love you all.
