00:01:00.605 --> 00:01:03.323
Think you're just not a"numbers person"?
00:01:03.533 --> 00:01:10.853
That all too common and worn out identity is costing you, if this is you, more than just money.
00:01:11.001 --> 00:01:14.496
More than you realize and not just in dollars.
00:01:14.620 --> 00:01:31.253
In this episode, we are peeling back the veil to reveal the mindset stuff, the misalignment, the avoidance that's keeping you stuck in financial fog and how to get through it to financial flow.
00:01:31.322 --> 00:01:45.542
First, let's unpack this identity trap that probably is a bit of a comfy blanket for you, particularly in the space of creative, spiritually anchored kind of people.
00:01:45.662 --> 00:01:51.632
Alternative, right brain, artist, passion driven people, right?
00:01:51.782 --> 00:01:54.123
The people we love, the person you probably are.
00:01:54.844 --> 00:02:06.405
I can't tell you how many clients came to me when I was a tax preparer for almost a decade in this particular niche of epic people that had this story.
00:02:06.539 --> 00:02:25.269
It basically becomes like a shield, or like a concrete ceiling that you are crouched under that keeps you from really being able to make the money you need, scale to the lifestyle you want, still being able to travel and have fun.
00:02:25.340 --> 00:02:32.949
Everything about that actually is so beyond numbers, but it's the numbers that make it possible.
00:02:33.129 --> 00:02:37.389
And you don't have to be a math whiz, you don't have to be an accountant.
00:02:37.659 --> 00:02:41.829
You just need to be willing to look and to look regularly.
00:02:41.980 --> 00:02:52.629
It really is all about your attention, your presence, the rhythmic, regular way that you show up for this cause that yields the result.
00:02:52.659 --> 00:02:59.680
Not your abilities or capacity necessarily, around actually crunching the numbers.
00:02:59.713 --> 00:03:05.293
Which by the way, is actually so super easy, once you do lean in.
00:03:05.473 --> 00:03:24.270
You'll find, like so many of my clients that come to me in avoidance and make it through the other side of establishing a ritual that feels really good to show up for, that your avoidance is so much heavier than your attention, once you're willing to be in relationship with them.
00:03:24.390 --> 00:03:33.719
Once you've actually moved through your resistance, you lean into and start looking at and engaging these numbers, it's actually really fun.
00:03:33.770 --> 00:03:39.455
What aligns your magical manifestation side and self with your numbers.
00:03:39.555 --> 00:03:52.905
You are just tagging actual amounts that make it possible to be strategic and make the decisions that you need to, with those income and expense styles, to actually be able to make them meet and match.
00:03:53.004 --> 00:04:11.034
That's the numbers side and it is absolutely just plugging in the other half of the equation of that deep, magical desire, feeling side of what you are co-creating, calling in, moving toward, and the whole point what it's meant to fuel and feed.
00:04:11.305 --> 00:04:12.534
That's the fun part.
00:04:12.745 --> 00:04:21.074
What I found to be the block for people around why they don't even lean into that, around why they're just not a numbers person: the record keeping.
00:04:21.130 --> 00:04:25.661
The reason that it can cost you so much money not to, well, there's lots of reasons...
00:04:25.711 --> 00:04:35.536
if you're not keeping track, you're probably not putting money aside for taxes, so you're going to get stuck with a huge bill come tax time that you probably can't afford.
00:04:35.536 --> 00:04:40.036
You might have to set up a payment plan for and add penalties and interest.
00:04:40.066 --> 00:04:41.175
None of that's fun.
00:04:41.290 --> 00:04:50.860
You're probably also missing deductions, write offs that you could be reducing how much you owe, so you're shelling out more in taxes than you need to.
00:04:50.942 --> 00:05:04.912
For the things that you actually are writing off, if you were to ever get audited, and I don't mean to be a fear monger, but if you don't have those records ready and available in your back pocket, the IRS might end up disallowing those write offs.
00:05:04.912 --> 00:05:13.221
Then you get stuck with a bill that you were not expecting to have to then pay back savings that you thought you got to keep on your taxes.
00:05:13.321 --> 00:05:38.097
This is the less fun one to talk about, but just want to offer the reminder that you not being a numbers person could mean serious financial discomfort and the alternative, which again, can be so peaceful and simple, and so unlike all of the stress that it causes you to be avoiding it, is truly just a form of protection to do it.
00:05:38.347 --> 00:05:57.008
I can tell you that the peace of mind indirectly what is otherwise a giant elephant in the room, the absence of that, of knowing that you have all of your ducks in a row, everything ready and available to protect you from that possibility.
00:05:57.278 --> 00:06:24.052
Both with the unfortunate, hopefully never going to happen to you, thing of getting audited, but also every single year when you go to file your taxes, having systems in place that work for you, that you can actually commit to showing up for and do because you want to, and it actually feels awesome, are so important because you're also protecting yourself from the yearly nightmare of tax filing when you don't have that shit in place.
00:06:24.219 --> 00:06:42.639
If this is not something that you are currently or already familiar with, when it comes to intimate relating, we can put ourselves into boxes just in terms of where we are right now with money, like with relationship, whether you are an avoidant, an anxious, a disorganized, or a secure.
00:06:42.754 --> 00:06:47.913
The first three all have very clear pathways to get to being financially secure.
00:06:47.986 --> 00:06:50.486
If this is you and you're like, well shit.
00:06:50.562 --> 00:06:56.131
Do yourself a favor, go pull up cosmicb.link/quiz.
00:06:56.412 --> 00:07:09.897
Whatever you're doing right now, get it up on your phone, up on your browser, so that it's there for you when you're done, and have a moment it takes less than five minutes to answer some questions and find out where you are right now.
00:07:09.897 --> 00:07:29.076
What is your money attachment style that I like to call your cosmic money style because ultimately it is going to connect you to a path of rising and rooting at the same time into the financial security available to you as a securely attached person with money.
00:07:29.287 --> 00:08:01.845
Again, if you've been getting the uncomfy's right now around everything that I'm talking about, go real quick, cosmicb.link/quiz, get that pulled up, return to it when you have five minutes, and get yourself rooted into understanding and fully accepting and leveraging where you are right now, whether it's avoidant or one of the other attachment styles so that you can clear through the noise of all of this and get to that space of ease and clarity with your money flow.
00:08:01.942 --> 00:08:33.072
Moving on to the most fun part, which is being able to look at your astrology chart, which is the energetic matrix, the design that was imprinted on and encoded into you the moment that you took your first breath, that has certain cosmic codes that we can look at to understand the journey to get to what is optimal, as well as that light at the end of the tunnel of what optimal looks like for you.
00:08:33.107 --> 00:09:07.378
We are able through this system, through this lens, to see not only what that guiding version of you is that you should absolutely be aware of as a cheat code to shortcut getting there, but also being able to see more clearly and again, have more compassion with yourself around wherever you are on the path, on the spectrum, from more unconsciously expressing to consciously, optimally flowing with the magic of your design.
00:09:07.461 --> 00:09:16.003
Any resistance that you experience to the money stuff in being just not a numbers person, is not a flaw in you.
00:09:16.003 --> 00:09:38.358
It's probably just a mismatch from how you're designed and how you've either been operating or thinking that you need to, in order to lean in to the numbers, the money, when you have systems that actually align with your wiring, they feel like they were designed for you because they were, and it feels just as good to show up for them.
00:09:38.358 --> 00:09:39.978
You don't need more willpower.
00:09:39.978 --> 00:09:43.249
You don't need more grit to show up for the money side of your business.
00:09:43.369 --> 00:09:47.028
You just need how you're doing it to be aligned with your design.
00:09:47.159 --> 00:09:54.539
Speaking of that mismatch, this brings us to the real difference between financial chaos and financial flow.
00:09:54.793 --> 00:09:59.337
The flow I'm talking about is not absence of structure.
00:09:59.961 --> 00:10:13.910
It's a rhythm, a current that you create and step inside of, that actually fits you and is an extension of who and how you are, that becomes your new flow.
00:10:14.010 --> 00:10:32.836
If you take one thing away from this, let it be that all your money really needs from you, let go everything in your head that you think that you were lacking or were never taught, or however you judge or feel shame with yourself around your money stuff...
00:10:32.836 --> 00:10:38.175
all it actually needs from you is your regular rhythmic engagement.
00:10:38.505 --> 00:10:39.135
That's it.
00:10:39.255 --> 00:10:41.775
You just have to be willing to lean in and look.
00:01:00.605 --> 00:01:03.323
Think you're just not a"numbers person"?
00:01:03.533 --> 00:01:10.853

The flow I'm talking about is not absence of structure.

It's a rhythm, a current that you create and step inside of, that actually fits you and is an extension of who and how you are, that becomes your new flow.
00:10:14.010 --> 00:10:32.836
