I distinctly remember the session I had years ago with a client when she was having such a rough time around the idea of receiving money.  

She had the number two money myth I see most often from conscious women running businesses that massively hold them back from increasing their income. A deep-seated belief about money that goes simply like this: 

Money is evil. 

Therefore, if you have a lot of money or make a lot of money, you are evil.

It is insidious. It is sneaky. Because she never said that straight up to me and most women don’t but instead, it showed up for her and many others, as “It is not spiritual to make money.” 

So how was she going to increase her income, what she told me she wanted to do, with that sneaky belief swimming around her head? 

She wasn’t. 

I asked her if she had lots of money, the money she was dreaming about having come into her business, what might she...

I am celebrating the best revenue month in my business this past month! Hootie hoo…

Celebrating the things I have put in place to receive to flow that “cash-ola” into my stewardship.

AND after years of not knowing how to celebrate my wins (on to the next thing, can you relate?) I have learned how important it is to let it land and actually celebrate the wins…. To fully RECEIVE the fruits of my efforts & intention. So took my hubby out to dinner and we toasted to the sweet abundance.

Celebrating is the emotion of receptivity.

When we appreciate and receive what has come to us, we essentially are saying “I am open to more Universe if you are listening.” Which she is.

In reflection on hitting this goal, I realized that there was one action I took that rose to the top of the list as the primary contributor to the financial win.

It wasn’t a big launch or a massive social media blitz, I actually...

I am a money avoider. 

The whole reason I started this coaching business to empower women to make money on their own terms was that I was a money avoider. 

It is vulnerable to share that.

But I was and still am… (Everything is energy. Nothing goes away, it gets integrated and transmutes into another form of energy.)

Many of you know my story… 

Picture it… Queens, NYC 1993… 

Deciding what to major in in school. 

Tried marketing, tried economics, tried philosophy… settled in on finance. International finance with accounting as a minor. 

Business school was where I was headed so I could get a big job in the financial center of the world. NYC.

And that I did. 

Climbed the corporate world ladder eventually securing that corner office on the 26th floor overlooking Central Park with the fancy corporate title and salary to match. 2003 

Fast forward several years,...

There is a saying out there that money loves speed. What that means is that the quicker you make decisions about your money (in business or in life) the quicker money will come to you. It is energetic reciprocity.

As you act on the decision, the next step clearly unfolds itself towards what you desire with having more money.

And being that the source of money is universal energy, divine, God of your understanding, you could also say the universe loves speed.

Talk about Leverage, decisions create multiple opportunities. Opportunities are abundance.

Want more abundance, make a decision today.

So being a Reflector in the world of Human Design, I am told to wait 28 days, a full moon cycle, to make a decision… not super helpful in the “money loves speed” convo

In Radiant Wealth, my money mastermind, we capitalize on three ways to make decisions with purpose, clarity, and quickness.

This results in money flowing easily into us with less stress and overwhelm.

These...

“What If” kinda gals have all the financial power.

If you are in my world, you want to increase your income, you want to increase your profitability (in other words what goes in your wallet) without giving up your morals in order to do so .

BUT, you have noticed a plateau in your income, your profitability is nowhere to be seen and you're AGAIN following someone else’s “formula” which AGAIN is not jibe-ing with you, leaving you feeling disappointed AGAIN.

Hence how ya find yourself in the "How To" search on Google AGAIN.

Listen, I am a sucker for a good “How To” YouTube video on how to create the most amazing French Silk Pie or increase my typing skills (which I am starting from a low base, let me tell ya) or how to create a 7 figure business with a quantum leap.

Have you noticed how excited you feel when a “How to Triple Your Income in 6 Minutes” subject line pops up in your inbox…?!? Even when you can sniff out the BS...

How much money are you REALLY allowing in?

This past week I had the opportunity to speak to two women entrepreneurs (not clients) about money resistance and money flow.

One woman was ALL about receiving money. She knew how much she needed and wanted and was completely open to ALL the ways it could come to her. No judgment. (There is some prosperity power there.)

The other was judging the way money had to come into her (“It can’t come in THAT way” I heard her say) pushing away ANY money that she was so desperately needing.

Which woman do you think will receive the money she wants faster?

Asking for what you want around money is one thing.

Receiving it is a totally different thing.

Which “money muscle” do you need to practice? Asking or receiving? Or both?

Regardless of which one, they both have to do with how we perceive our own self-worth.

Consider these questions when it comes to making A LOT of...

As an entrepreneur...wait a minute.... as a HUMAN>>> it can often feel like we are on this train to MORE-land. 

More revenue 

More profit

More time

More support

More clarity

More cash flow

More freedom

More health

More __(you fill in the blank)____

 Maybe only one of the few in the LESS bucket is taxes.

 MORE can get to be ALOT. 

 One of the main reasons I see business owners, especially women business owners sabotage their success, thinking if they go bigger (another way to say MORE) they will have to sacrifice something else. And it’s kinda funny because the sacrifice list coincides closely with the MORE list above. 

They will have to Sacrifice:

Free time

Family time

Money (to make more money)

Their health

Their freedom

Their integrity

Their values

Their profitability

 It can be quite the conundrum, would you agree? 

 The bottom line is this:

We are all moving towards more growth. Everything is moving towards...

As much as I love FLOW and I do. STRUCTURE is what keeps the flow, well, flowing.  

Checking in on your money at this time of the year shines a light on what might have gone into the shadows with your money since the new year. #Solstice 

Reviewing your money “stuff” this time of the year gives you the perfect opportunity to review what has occurred, what you learned, what isn’t working, what is working over the past 6 months-ish, and make changes to get you back on track for the year-end.  

I work with cycles in money with my clients. Money is not linear, and neither are you, and my clients (including myself) have found great success in recognizing their cycle of money generation that aligns with their highest self.  

We have seasons. You have seasons. And every entire cycle has a point of reflection. Of assessment, of curation, of pruning even.  

And what an auspicious time to review as we notice the light expanding or...

Squeel…. It's happening…  

Picture it.. the North Shore Oahu Spring 2017 (DAYUMMM 5 years ago)…where I first put pen to paper to write a book.

Christine Walsh writing a book. A BOOK! 

YEP... Christine Walsh has written a book... 

In the experience, in the gorgeousness that is Hawaii… I download the essence of a book about three women and their experience with money. 

These three women are you. 

These three women are me.  

The young one. The spirited one. The one that drives up curiosity, wonder, hopeful, and the energy of desire and truth around money flow. The one JUST before all the baggage of the world encases her and creates her financial insecurities.   

The middle aged one. The present self. The logic and reasoning one. The one here right now, looking at the bank account, her business, her retirement account and wondering “How am I going to get through this?” 

And the older...

Nothing happens until a decision is made.

Most people will have an opportunity to make more money right in front of them and the first thing they will think about is the risk.

Better know as ...."Why I can't."

I can't because...

I don't have the money.

I don't have the time.

I don't have the skillset.

I don't have the systems in place. 

I don't know if it will work.

I don't know if I will make a mistake. 

...and the list goes on. 

If you are an entrepreneur and you want to grow your business and increase your income, that frame of thinking is going to sabotage you every time.

An entrepreneurial mindset is one of expansion and risk (calculated risk) AND reward. But it only starts first with a decision that you can.

Here's an exercise for ya:

Bring to mind a money challenge you are having right now.

Maybe it's you have plateaued with your income

 or maybe cash flow is not happening

or you have this money story you just can't shake and...
