Your brain is always having a conversation about money. And it is not speaking into the void, it's speaking to the most powerful creative energy in the universe. And when it is having this constant chatter about money, it is literally magnetizing into your bank account, your finances, your business results, everything that it is saying and emitting out there in these conversations. So think about this for a second. What are your dominant thoughts? Because that's the conversation that's happening. What are your dominant thoughts related to money? Because that's a conversation that's happening out there. And the universe is literally mirroring back into your finances exactly what your brain is constantly saying through your thoughts. This is really powerful, and it's incredibly it is so powerful, and yet it is one of the things that we don't pay attention to. We don't even realize what our dominant thoughts are around money. And that's what I want to talk about this morning. I actually want to give you three powerful affirmations. In fact, I'm going to throw in a bonus or two. Powerful affirmations that you can start saying to prime your brain so that it is always on. It's kind of like always dialed into the station 99.9 that is money attracting. You all you have to do is set the station. Right. Once you set the station in your car, you're not constantly trying to tune it again. All you have to do is set the station of your brain with these affirmations and it will do the work for you. So happy Monday. Good morning. Welcome to the Wealthy Me podcast. I'm your host, Tasha. And every week we gather here as high performing women, and we start the week with a powerful declaration to rewire our brains with something that, quite frankly, for high-performing women, is not traditional, so to speak. And so I want you all to type, I deserve wealth with ease. Let this be your declaration every Monday morning. This is how I want to start the week. This is the way I want to go through the week. I want my brain to literally be functioning from I deserve wealth with ease. Go ahead and type that in the comments, whether you're watching live or watching the replay. And let's dive in. But not before you obviously, right? Let's address the elephant in the room. I'm on vacation. I am in Martha's vineyard for the week. So drop all of your recommendations in the chat because while we were, you know, on en route here yesterday, my husband said, Oh, so, you know, what are all the things that you have on the agenda? And I was like, Oh yeah, the agenda. It's like I have no clue what we're doing. I did, I did get some tickets. We're here for uh the Black Film Festival, so we're gonna go do that and we have a comedy show, but that's a there's only two things I've got going on. So let me know all the things. I'm very open to ideas and recommendations for fun while we're here. Okay, let's dive in. How did I come to be even talking about this? Last week, I found myself like back to back in all of these unexpected situations where a lot of money was required. So, first the AC wasn't working at my rental property. The the guys came over and they're like, oh, it's this and this and this. And long story short, you probably are better off buying a new AC unit. There you go, out of nowhere, an unexpected, like potentially $8,000. Then some plumbing stuff happened at my house, and I had to call the plumbing company out. And so I literally saw my brain, and think about this, because I know this has happened to many of you, just like me, where my brain started to go into, oh my gosh, I can't I, you know, like when it rains, it pours. You know how we do that? When it rains, it pours. Why is all of this happening right now, right before we're set to go on vacation, where all of this money is just gonna be pouring out? Or what I'll see happen is my clients will come in to doing this work and they'll make a very strong intention. You know, I'm gonna really work on my money mindset and hell breaks loose. It's like one of my clients once said, I thought I was signing up for world to me, where money was just gonna flow in, the clouds were gonna part, and it was gonna rain money. And instead, all of a sudden, money is flowing out. And what does your brain do in that moment? So I caught my brain doing what it does on autopilot, and it started to go into the chatter of, oh my gosh, so much money going out, and when it rains, it pours, and why can't why is this happening to me? And all the way down the energetic scale to very, very low vibration. And I caught it very quickly because I've trained my brain to notice when I'm doing this. And so I simply said this affirmation, and this isn't even one of the three I want to share with you this morning, but I simply said this affirmation the more money I spend, the more money I make. Oh, I'm so grateful. Every time I make a significant spend, every time, and especially when it's unexpected. I literally, people always laugh when I do this. I'm swiping my card and I'm saying, I'm so grateful. The more money I spend, the more money I wait, make. And you can see people like look at me and then they go, huh, I like that. I'm like, you should try it. So go ahead. Let's start this morning typing that. The more money I spend, the more money I make. And I want to, you know, share again everything on the three affirmations I'm gonna share with you this morning. I'm gonna tell you the science behind it. But for this one, let's just forget science for a moment and just think about the energy that I was in when I was in. Oh my gosh, why is this happening to me? When it rains, it pours. Oh my gosh, I'm going on vacation. Why is this happening? Very low vibration. Literally, the second I shift into I'm so grateful. The more I spend, the more I make. My brain has literally created an expectation in that moment. Oh, she's spending a ton of money. Oh, that means money is gonna come in. I kid you not, 24 hours later, in the mail, which had been sitting there for like a couple of days, I hadn't gotten to it. I say this affirmation, I go to check my mail, I have a check for $4,000 sitting in my mail. Okay. But here is what really got me. This $4,000, I literally saw the check and I was like, who is this company? What is this about? I probably should research this before I deposit it. And I was like, Why are you gonna need to research it? Like you said, more money you spend, the more money you make. Here you go. Here's the money. And it's like, yeah, but my brain starts going into this loop. And then I say to myself, you know what? Here is the thing. I said the more money I spend, the more money I make. And my brain did what it is wired to do. It went and created the solution that I said would happen. Long story short, though, it turns out this is what was fascinating to me. This check was a refund for an investment I had made. You all know my story where I said I had gotten myself into some investment thing, lost a ton of money, and somebody got arrested in that situation. And the company that's managing the funds sent me this $4,000. And I don't even want to tell you how much money I had invested, but I thought that was gone. I thought it was all gone. He's arrested, money, you know, pyramid ski and money gone. So this was like four or five years ago. What are the chances that the week, the day I say money is going to come back to me 24 hours later, I get this unexpected check. That's the power your brain has that you might not be utilizing in the way that would bring you money. But actually, what happens when you notice money is going out, you start just constantly allowing your brain to go over and over and over and over and over that. And I promise you, what's going to happen is more of the same. Okay. So that's my story I want to share with you just to prime this conversation. But I'm going to give you three affirmations. I'm going to tell you from a neuroscience perspective why they work. Now, we know a lot about affirmations, and I want to read this quote from you because for you because it's from Psychology Today magazine. And it says, scientists have proven. So let's come out of woo-woo here for a second. Scientists have proven that repeated use of affirmations help rewrite messages that your brain receives and cause an individual to manifest positive change. So this is, I'm I can tell you this works from observation and years and years and years and years of doing it and watching my clients doing it do it. But I also just want you to listen in keenly because the scientists have said this works. The people that study the brain have proven that this works. So don't just take my word for it. Science backs this. All right. So the first affirmation is this one the more money I have, I'm sorry. Get ready to type. I'm on vacation. Okay. I haven't had coffee yet. So be a little gracious with me. Okay. Number one the more fun I have, the more money I make. I first of all, these three affirmations that I'm going to share with you have made me millions of dollars. These affirmations that I'm going to share with you, I have literally seen myself come out of a serious pickle, serious pickle, with these affirmations. Okay, like the time I lost $170,000 in a matter of six months, and I affirmed the heck out of it. And within three months, I made three times the money I lost just by letting my brain know this is my command to you. But let's go back to fun. Why does the more fun I have, the more money I make? Well, number one, when you are in fun energy, you are magnetic. What happens when you want more money? You're in needy, desperate, anxious energy. It's super low vibe. And I promise you, worrying about money has never made you more money. Let me know in the comments. Anyone can prove me wrong. You have worried your way to making more money. No, it doesn't work. And even if the money comes, it's gonna come with such bad vibes, such bad energy that's probably going to cost you more than the money you make. Cost you more in your energy, cost you more in just, you know, it's one of those things I've I've just noticed when when I don't make good money, I I I yeah, it it's a steep price to pay. So I only want good money. I want good energy money. Um here is the thing about energy that we don't realize. It is a lever. And when your brain has normalized that you can have fun and make a lot of money, it takes you out of the energy of I need to worry, stress, and pressure myself into making money. Because I promise you, from our childhood, our brains has already normalized that. We went to school, we had to do all these exams, we had to prove ourselves to get to the next level, then to get into college. And your brain has more years of saying, you know what, chick, you gotta work hard, you gotta prove yourself, you gotta sacrifice and stress and worry and be anxious in order to succeed. And so if you start giving your brain new instructions that say, actually, the more fun I have, the more money I make. I mean, that's a two for one, if you ask me. Like my brain is going to do, it is going to have conversations with the universe based on what I'm telling it, I want it to do. Sorry, the sun is coming out now. Um, so I would rather my brain be constantly talking about the more fun Tasha has, the more money she makes. And I want my brain making that a rule in my life. And if my brain has that as a rule, every time I'm having fun, I'm going to make more money. And it's going to feel amazing making money. That is what I want. So I'm 52 years old. I've been priming my brain to do this for the last, I would say, 15 to 20 years. When I start working too hard, literally now my brain shuts down. I get, I get more anxious when I'm working hard than when I'm having fun. Think about that for a second. Do you want your brain doing that for you? Like your brain actually is the switch that goes, What are you doing? Most people, they have to have a mental breakdown before they realize they're too far in. My brain literally switches and says, What are you doing? Like, this is not the plan that we have. You're working way too hard. Sorry. I'm gonna have to move because the sun is coming out in my eyes and I'm squinting. Okay. So that is um affirmation number one. Now, I set up an entire week of us having fun with money. So many of you started to play. It has been incredible. Pause for a second. I just want to say to every single one of you that joined me on Substack for Money Attraction Week. So we can freaking have a lot of fun with money. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. I woke up yesterday and I was number one. Dear wealthy me was number one in business on Substack. I woke up again today and it's still number one. So you know what? Let's keep going. This is fun. Let's keep going. Let's keep having fun. And I did this money attraction week because I wanted you to prove this affirmation. I wanted to give you a way to have fun with money. And this is all play money. So it's not gonna cost you a dime to play this pretend money game. But I just want you to observe the energy that it puts you in to wake up every morning with the expectation of I can't wait to see how much money is gonna be there. What if you can transfer that to real life? That's one of the things that this must this game has helped me do, is I've literally said, Well, okay, well, this is a game, but what if I just made this a rule for my brain? I wake up every morning to money, more money than I had the day before. Right? So type the word money if you're not yet registered for joining us on Substack for Money Attraction Week.

It will bring up my webpage and you will find the last three days. Okay, have fun. Let's have fun. Literally have fun spending eight million dollars this week so your brain begins to normalize. Oh, yeah, this is the new rule. Affirmation number one: the more fun I have, the more money I make. Affirmation number two. This one took me years to create. Years, and I can tell you the whole story behind it. I'm gonna make it brief. I realized that I was a powerful creator with money. You and I are the same. You are also a powerful creator with money. What I might know that you are still learning is that it's me creating my financial reality. Maybe you've heard that, maybe you've dabbled in it a little bit, you know, but I'm here to tell you 1000%. It is you, full responsibility here. It is you creating your financial reality. You have a dollar in the bank, you did that. You have a million in the bank, you did that. You have 10,000 in the bank, you did that. Whatever you have in your financial reality, you created it. Now, what happens if you're like, I'm not, I'm not happy with what I have in the bank? I'm not happy with how hard I have to work for money. I'm not happy that it comes and goes. I'm not happy that it's feast or famion. You can change it. You are a powerful creator. All you have to do is command your brain, like repeatedly command your brain until your brain goes, I got you. It will literally take care of this for you for the rest of your life. It is the greatest return on investment ever. So this is the affirmation that I created for myself. Money comes to me. Go ahead and type. Money comes to me easily, consistently, and in large amounts. Those three things, how did I get there? When I after I filed chapter 11 bankruptcy, and I was very, very low, very dark place. The number one thing that I was being pressured to do was to go work, to go get a job. And it was like, that feels so hard. It feels like moving a mountain for me right now. And I literally just started saying, money comes easily to me. I have no idea how, but money just comes easily to me. And it started coming easily. Like I was finding pennies on the floor. I was getting credit card offers. I was getting, you know, like refund checks for 10 bucks, 20 bucks. It was like, oh my gosh, it's working. Money comes to me easily. But then I also noticed it was sporadic. I started my business and it was like, it's it's coming, but it's sporadic. I want it to be consistent. I'm sure you want it to be consistent, right? So I said, money comes to me easily and consistently. And I did that for a while and I noticed it's coming easy. And it's pretty consistent. But I'm not gonna live my best life on this amount that's easy and consistent. So I need to add something else. Money comes to me easily, consistently, and in large amounts. It doesn't mean every single time I get a check or I get a payment, it's a large amount, but collectively, it's easy, consistent, and large amounts. Money comes to me easily, consistently, and large amounts. I want you to think about this from the opposite. Your brain is probably wired right now to say money comes to me hard and inconsistently. And you can know what your brain is programmed and the conversation that it is having if you look at how money shows up in your life. And I want to use full transparency. I will notice when I'm off track with this, and I have to go sit and have this conversation again with my brain and kind of reprime it. Because sometimes it's like I get lazy and I just, you know, set it and forget it, and then something will happen in life, and I'll go back to my old ways of thinking and I'll start to see the results of that showing up. I'm like, oh no, we're not doing that. And so I have to get back into repriming and reprogramming my brain. And I will know it's off track because I will see what's happening in my business, in my finances. Sometimes it's not even my business, it's just like my finances. Like one time I checked my investment accounts and like it was down. I mean, in like a few days, $50,000. I was like, oh no, we're not having this. Uh-uh. We got to reprogram. Now I know nothing about like what's happening in the markets. I don't pay attention. I really don't. What I do is I know I am the creator of the money in that account. And so it's my job to program my brain because whatever. Whatever my brain thinks is going to be there is what's going to be there. P.S. I had a financial advisor tell me recently. He says, You know the people that make the most money in the markets, Tasha? And I was like, No, who? He says, the people who don't look at their investments every day. That's who makes the most money. You know why that's true? Because when we go look at our investments, what are we looking for usually? Oh, God, let me hope it's still there. Let me hope it's that much. Let me hope, right? And so that energy that you bring to your money shows up in your returns. So anyway, that's a side note. Uh, why does money come to me easily, consistently, and in large amounts work? Because your reticular activating system is now primed to see opportunities for you that will cause this to be true. I remember on my journey, once I started doing this, money comes to me easily, consistently, and in large amounts. It changed how I price my programs. It changed the kind of work that I was doing in my business. It changed, it has changed so much because my reticular activating system started giving me more ideas about how to make this true. I went into, you know, I moved out of my prior house. I was like, wait a minute, I've been saying I want consistent money. Instead of selling the house, rent it. That's like, I don't know, $2,500 a month in positive cash flow. Remember you've been saying that? Because I was about to sell it, because I I could have gotten a ton of money at the time. And then my brain was like, wait, but you said you want consistent cash. I was like, oh yeah, that's true. Okay, we're gonna rent it. So you start to see opportunities, you start to think differently because your brain is now literally showing you how to make this true. My last one is this one that I think every woman on here needs. I am open to receive money from all sources. This one is a like there's three layers to this one, probably four. I am open to receiving more money from all sources. I want you to program your brain. I want this to be like a stamp on your reticular activating system. I want the most powerful neuropathway around this one affirmation. Why? Because for many of us, it's not even that we're not successful is not possible for us, it's that we are so tied to it has to be this one way, this one source. I always say there's one source and it's God, universe, source. There's multiple channels. So never get so attached that it needs to be this one way. Like last week, if I would have said, oh my gosh, I need my business to create $4,000 this week so I can cover these expenses. You know how much stress that would have caused me? Well, let me think all week. Now I'm pressured. Let me call, maybe make some phone calls, let me do some things to get $4,000. No, I just said the more money that I said, the more money I spend, the more money I make. And my brand sorted it out, and it came from a refund check from a thing from five years ago. Never be attached to how. You would be so much better off, and you would attract so much more money if you say, I am open to receive money from all sources. Another layer to this affirmation. So, number one is the source itself and not being attached. It must come from my business and the pressure of that. The second one is being open to receive. And I remember one of the greatest lessons I learned was one time I was actually on vacation in North Carolina. And I remember we we we we had booked a hike and it turned out to just be two of us. So I offered the guide to go, you know, it was a sunrise hike. I was like, how about I take us up to breakfast? Let's go to breakfast. And she's like, Oh, I know this great spot. And we go to breakfast. And we're having breakfast, and I'm feeling generous. And I said, Hey, when the bill comes, I said to the waitress, I'll pay for I it's on me. And the other lady that was on the hike, she was from New York. She got so angry. I don't need you to pay. Why are you paying? It's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I can tell you, we didn't even need to have another conversation. I could tell her about all of the things that was happening in her life, in her business, in her career, in her relationships, because she was so resistant to receiving. And that's what happens. I am open to receive. Literally, that alone could be the entire affirmation because you don't realize, you probably don't realize, you think you're open to receiving, but sometimes you don't realize that you might be blocked with receiving and you might be blocked with receiving from different sources. So be open to not only receiving, but be open to receiving that it may be a source that you haven't yet thought of or that you have been blocking. Um everything is energy, right? This is the one, this is why does this work? Everything is energy. And everything, if everything is energy and the energy that you have to receiving money from different sources is negative, it cannot attract the positive money coming to you and the positive coming from sources that may be easier for you to make money than the way that you're thinking right now. So if your energy is negative to receiving, negative to other sources other than one, your business or your job, then what's going to happen is you are not going to be a magnet to attract money coming in easily, coming in for you to receive it, coming in from sources that you haven't yet thought about, right? One of my clients, when we met, she works for the government, she's making about six figures, and we started doing this work. And one of the things that she said was, I've never, you know, I thought I was doing really good. It never even occurred to me to become open to receiving more, just more. I don't know from where, just more. And literally, this is the work that we did. She just stayed in the energy of the work, she became open to receiving more. She wasn't worried about how or where it would come. And within 12 months, she found out that she had gotten an inheritance from a trust for a million dollars. A million dollars. Another one of my clients, she she just got really honest and said, I don't want to work for money. I don't want to work for money. I want to be a millionaire, I don't want to work for money. Within two weeks, she finds out her ex-husband from a divorce from years ago had hid money, and her lawyer calls her and he's like, You're entitled to a million dollars. Be open to all sources, be open to receiving, and your brain will do the work for you. Okay, those are my affirmations. I'm gonna repeat them again. The more fun I have, the more money I make. Money comes to me easily, consistently, and in large amounts. I'm open to receiving money from all sources. Your job is to think about these three affirmations and figure out which one do I want to play with. I already have it all set up for you to play with having fun this week. So come join me on Substack. We're doing Money Attraction Week, and we are literally every day I'm giving you a prompt to get playful and have fun and dream and visualize and act on just being in the highest energy with money. When you are in fun, playful, joyous energy, the highest on the emotional frequency scale, you become magnetic. You don't even have to do the heavy lifting, you become magnetic to things that are also of a similar vibration. And money, which allows you to do a lot of wonderful things in your life, is also at that frequency. So you want to raise your energetic frequency to match the frequency of abundance, right? Type the word money. I think I put that. Let's see. Type the word money, check your DM. You will get the link to join me on Substack this week, or you can also go to Tashachen.com forward slash Substack. S-U-B-S-T-A-C-K. Come join us. We're on day three. We're spending $18,000 today, taking our girlfriends away. I'm gonna end this live. I'm going over to Substack because we already dropped day three, and I want to see where y'all are going. I cannot tell you how many trips I have ended up on, including this one in Martha's Vineyard, because we've played this game and I have like my mind has become open to so many places. I didn't even, quite frankly, I didn't know existed until I saw some of you saying, Oh, I'm going here, I'm going there, I'm going to this, I'm going to that. I'm like, oh my gosh, I want to go there. I've already added things on my list this week, and we're on day three just from seeing places that you all are going. All right, so let's go have some fun. I'll see you over there on Substack. Bye everyone. Have a great week.
