Practice Notes
Reflections from the path—what I’m learning, unlearning, and witnessing in my work with women and sacred practice.
Before You Try Another Money Strategy, Read This
There’s a quiet myth so many brilliant, heart-led women carry without realizing it. It sounds like:
“Once I get through this season, I’ll finally feel ready.”
“Once I fix my money situation, I’ll feel secure.”
“Once I do a little more, earn a little more, heal a little more… then I can rest. Then I can begin.”
At first glance, it sounds responsible. Maybe even wise.
But underneath that story is something deeper — something I call the scarcity wound.
This wound doesn’t just live in your thoughts. It lives in your body, in your breath, in the nervous system that’s learned to brace for not-enough. And as long as that wound runs the show, no amount of money strategies or mindset tricks will bring lasting relief.
In this post, I’m not giving you another thing to fix or strive for. I’m offering a different way in. A way that starts with truth, tenderness, and the possibility of no longer chasing what you were never meant to earn in the first place.
