Show Notes

Today’s episode is all about spending money in our businesses. I’ve spent more in the last 18 months on less tangible support than I have in the 10 years before that. And I’ve learnt a lot from it.

Some of the things I talk about:

  • How I’ve spent more in my business (in terms of personal coaching/ support etc.) than I have in the past 10 years combined
  • How do we “justify” spending money in our businesses? Especially on less “tangible” things?
  • How & when I started investing money back into my business
  • The mindset shift that comes with being nervous about spending a bit more money than feels comfortable
  • How do we know the value of support like coaching and mentoring?
  • What if you’re spending too much?
  • The importance of being a “safe pair of hands” for money
  • Letting go of shame for what we’ve done or spent in the past
  • Having recurring money dates with yourself
  • Are we investing in the right (or wrong) courses? How I’ve changed the way I see them
  • The importance of spending from an empowered place (and the signs that you might not be)

“Something I’ve been trying to affirm to myself lately is that “when money is in my hands, it’s in safe hands”, so whether I have loads of money or very little money, I’m always looking after it”
