 Hey guys, welcome back to the podcast. Happy Monday. I hope you're doing amazing. I hope you had a great weekend. I had a good weekend. I went to Habad Friday night to a barbecue there and had a great time. And then, saturday, I had lunch with a friend and some other things. Finished watching. Love Is Blind.

Season eight was really entertaining. And then Sunday met up with someone new and it was a fun afternoon. Today I am talking about something that affects all of us, our relationship with money. I'll be sharing my personal story of growing up at home with love and stability as far as my basic needs being met, but also a lot of scarcity and fear around money.

So my dad grew up in the Depression, he was very fearful around money and he worked really hard standing on his feet for 12 hours a day as a pharmacist. He worked hard for money and there was a lot of fear around money and loss of money, and my mother would have to remove price tags from cottage cheese because he would yell at her that she paid too much for it.

And we were always told to turn off the water, turn off the lights, shut the refrigerator door. My dad just had a lot of fear. Around wasting money and money. I'm grateful for my dad. I love my dad. He taught us a lot of things. He taught us about food and looking for ingredients way before anybody else was looking at the bread and different things.

He knew that there were chemicals and there were additives, and there were all kinds of things he taught us. To wash our hands all the time before eating and when we got home and, a lot of that. So that was good. He taught us other powerful things. It's just when it came to money, I saw a lot of fear.

I saw hard work as being the only way to receive money, and these are limiting beliefs that I have taken on, that there's never enough and wanting more is, greedy or unsafe. But what I wanna share with you is what we speak into the universe becomes true . If you are telling stories of lack, you are going to attract more lack.

If you're telling a stories of abundance and noticing the abundance around you, you'll attract more of that into your life. You wanna tell stories of money supporting you, of money coming to you with ease, but there's always enough that it's safe to receive, become a vessel to receive. We are all vessels.

We are all receivers. I have been studying Kabbalah, and that's what it teaches. So you wanna expand your ability to receive, expand your vessel to receive more, and how do you do that? Part of it is giving, I have to be honest with you. When you give, you receive, this is universal law. But you wanna give because you want to and you wanna give because , it feels good.

You don't wanna give because you think you're gonna receive back. So I really. Want you to think about what your money story is, what money story were you handed? What were your mother's beliefs around money? What were your father's beliefs around money? I invite you to take a piece of paper out and write down on the left side of the paper mother.

On the right side of the paper, father, and just write down what did you hear about money from your mother? What did you hear about money from your father? And which , which stories have you taken on and believed to be true? So I encourage you to notice what beliefs you took on from your parents or caregivers, and I would love for you to create a new money story.

Money flows to me with ease. I'm open to receiving. I'm worthy and deserving of money. I'm worthy and deserving of abundance, and also .
