27: Money Blocks: Financial Safety to Self Actualization with Alyssa Cotten

The Good Enough Podcast

“Since the dawn of time, there has been enough money to go around. Unfortunately, we have been told stories that there is not enough. And we believe those stories at our core, which then again, disempowers us and keeps us in scarcity, versus taking responsibility of our own well-being and saying, ‘Hey, I'm an empowered individual. I have empowered thoughts, and I'm going to take empowered actions to generate the money to achieve the life that I desire.’”

Alyssa Cotten, a brilliant money mindset coach for female entrepreneurs, joins our hosts Jessica Armstrong and McKenzie Raymond to untangle the web of financial beliefs and behaviors that hold us back. Together, they confront the fears and societal norms that often keep our money matters under wraps, providing a beacon of hope for those looking to redefine their relationship with wealth.

The conversation is a journey through the roots of the financial psyche, examining how childhood experiences and ingrained behaviors can dictate our money narratives. Our hosts and Alyssa delve into the depths of money blocks, including imposter syndrome, and their stealthy role in stunting our financial growth. Alyssa's insights into practical strategies like embracing gratitude for bills—yes, even bills!—remind us that our financial decisions can align with inner peace rather than anxiety. This episode isn't just about crunching numbers; it's a holistic approach to recognizing and embracing our true worth.
