Practice Notes
Reflections from the path—what I’m learning, unlearning, and witnessing in my work with women and sacred practice.
“I’m Just Not Good With Money.” How Maya Took Ownership of Her Finances and Her Future.
By the time a woman arrives at Get Right With Money, she’s usually already tried everything she was told would help — mindset work, budgeting systems, financial skills — and still feels anxious or avoidant around money. This story follows Maya, a composite of many women I’ve worked with, and explores how avoidance isn’t a personal failing but a nervous system strategy — and what becomes possible when safety, presence, and capacity come first.
When Money Needs More Than Skill Building
Money can be one of the most charged and tender areas of our lives — not because we’re bad at it, but because it carries history, fear, and meaning far beyond numbers. Many women have done everything they were told would make money feel easier: learned the skills, tracked the data, tried to be “responsible.” And yet, something still feels unresolved underneath.
This piece explores why money often needs more than skill building, and how safety, regulation, and self-trust are essential foundations for any lasting change in our relationship with money.
When “I Can’t Afford This” Isn’t Just About Money
When a woman says, “I don’t have the money for this,” it’s rarely just about the numbers. More often, it carries years of conditioning, fear, and learned protection in the body. This piece explores why that reflexive no shows up, what it’s really guarding, and how pausing with it — rather than pushing past it — can open the door to a more honest, grounded relationship with money.
Finding Center In Chaos
We are fed chaos at every turn. And as a creative, spiritual, empathic woman, the weight of it is real. This is not a personal failing — it's what it feels like to be awake right now. Here are some practices that have helped me find my footing.
Rest is a Portal
There is something radical about choosing to slow down and rest in a world that equates worth with productivity. When the nervous system softens and the body releases its bracing, a deeper layer of awareness becomes available.
Rest is not an escape from the world — it is a portal back to the strength required to meet it.
A Woman Who Invests
There comes a quiet moment — or maybe a hundred small ones — when you realize: something has to shift in how you relate to money. Not because you’re behind, but because a deeper part of you knows it’s time to do things differently. To earn with intention, to save with consistency, to invest in yourself and your future — not just someday, but now.
In this post, I’m sharing the shifts that helped me move from avoiding investing… to becoming a woman who does it with clarity, care, and confidence. These aren’t just financial strategies — they’re mindset and energy shifts that change how you relate to money at the deepest level.
If you’re ready to feel more grounded, empowered, and free — this one’s for you.
When Receiving Feels Hard
So many soulful women want more—more ease, more income, more time to breathe—but when it actually starts to arrive, something inside quietly shuts down. In this post, I explore why receiving can feel so hard (even after years of inner work), how to know what you're truly open to, and how to begin softening the pattern of bracing against the good. This isn’t about doing more. It’s about practicing discernment, safety, and self-trust—so you can receive what supports you and gently release what doesn’t.
The Cards Point Home
When I started learning tarot and using oracle cards in college, I wanted certainty. Answers. I wanted the cards to tell me what to do. Years later, I've learned the cards aren't about that at all—they're about something far more powerful.
