- Money as a windfall is fun, creative, impulsive, joyful (and even a little dangerous).
- Money in the form of debt or the last few dollars in your bank account becomes stress, anxiety, depression, dread, and shame.
- In negotiating a salary or figuring out what to charge a client, money is the elephant in the room, often making sure that you work for peanuts.
- In dreaming about your business, money becomes the key to the locked door, the ticket to the new destination,
And let’s not forget that with your family, friends and relationships, money is often the glue holding together your experiences, creating ways to spend time together, and meeting your basic needs as you go through each day.
And by mapping each “type” of money to our deeper set of beliefs, emotions, traumas and vows connected to it, I uncovered the secret agenda that keeps us from achieving wealth.
As a child, sitting on the stairs at night, did you overhear your family’s worried discussions about finances?
Was your family working class with the belief that they had to work as long and hard as possible for their money?
Did they live through the Depression, rationing, struggling to feed their kids?
Whether you know this or not, their experiences got passed down to you – their thoughts and beliefs subconsciously became programmed into vows about your own worth.
They keep us stuck at an arbitrary, but powerful set point for:
- How much you are allowed to earn
- How much Wealth you deserve to have
- How hard you have to work for your money
- Whether or not you can earn doing what you LOVE
We know just enough about our subconscious to realize it’s a place where logic does not exist, emotion rules and the past is still happening!
Through years of work with hundreds of people both one-on-one and in groups, I discovered and cataloged consistent connections between specific ways of limiting and sabotaging money and their subconscious origin.
These vows that have been handed down through the generations keep you stuck living paycheck to paycheck - even at higher income levels, working too hard for your money, and resigned to the thought that you can’t earn big doing what you love.
Are you re-living your parent’s money reality despite your best efforts and intention
It’s not the banks, corporations, taxes, or conventional glass ceiling keeping you from your goals.
- It’s your INNER Glass Ceiling – your programming.
- It’s wired into the emotions and nervous system.
And it takes a transformative experience of the mind-body connection to break free.
The exercises and stories in each chapter spark emotional AHA! moments that will get you OFF the page and INTO the life-changing tapping method and other exercises that complement the insight you’ve gained.
In my work with thousands of people, I have found over and over that my clients were talented, smart and caring people who were doing amazing work in their careers and businesses but all shared a secret and painful problem - being driven by a secret agenda that has nothing to do with creating real wealth, freedom and security.
When I saw the magnitude of how this programming was limiting entire generations of hard working people (including myself), I was outraged for all of us.
I will not sit by and watch talented people with beautiful dreams be limited by something they are totally unaware of.
So I made it my mission to fight to uncover every single bit of limiting money programming and to create a step-by-step map to eliminate it from the minds, emotions and nervous systems of everyone I can.
Open your eyes with me and be liberated…free to start creating a whole new level of wealth.
You must be the hero of your mission. You must honor your previous financial traumas and address the pain, grief and loss you experienced to move forward.
I’ve put together the map for your journey – now it’s time to set forth.
This is about unleashing your true self. About letting go of everything you think you know and seeing the world with clear eyes.
It’s true that shining a light on your financial programming means willing to look further than your day-to-day routine for the answers.
I’ve been there.
I’ve been through my own financial trauma and uncertainty.
I’ve learned to let go of the old rules.
And I’ve done the research for you to find the best and quickest methods in your transformation.
When I was a child, I knew I wanted to help people and thought I would love to be a psychologist. But even at that age, I saw that simply reminding my friends of their talents and value to the world wasn’t enough to raise their self-esteem. So when it was time to head to college, I looked to my father for answers. Dad was an engineer, and the black and white ability of engineers to solve problems and get tangible results was appealing.
I pursued engineering with my full attention, graduating with a degree in Chemical Engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, a top tier school. Over the next 18 years I excelled at various positions in Fortune 500 companies, from engineering to management and eventually to sales, winning top sales awards.
But there was something missing.
I wanted to have more meaning in my work and I wanted to make a difference! I just kept coming back to this feeling that I was meant to do something bigger.
I became certified in the mind body techniques of EFT/Tapping (through Gary Craig) and Hypnotherapy. I started living my passion and the road opened before me.
At this pivotal moment I put my inner engineer archetype to work. As an engineer, my job was to synthesize massive amounts of information with the sole focus of applying it for a measurable result. So I devoured thousands of case studies on the powerful mind-body Tapping Technique until I reached expert status. I looked for methods that worked quickly and effectively so you don’t have to.
It makes me crazy when I think of all the brilliant, heart-centered clients I’ve met over the years – who like me, had finally begun living their passions but were still stuck in their limited programming, making a limited impact and an equally painful limited income. My no-nonsense engineering brain knew this was a puzzle I had to solve - and now I had new tools!
This is the key to its success. No engineer would simply lecture or just give you some insights and expect a result. You’ll be startled and amazed by the AHA! moments that come up when you follow my map and uncover the true source of why your money is exactly the way it is in your life.
I’ll lead you through a powerful and emotional process to clear your programming and the financial trauma that goes with it. When you arrive at the end of each chapter, your new insight combined with the applied technique of tapping will spark a transformation.
I was able to CREATE a wealthy life of meaning and impact. And instead of reaching just one person at a time I’ve been able to help thousands across the world – through my books, videos, newsletter and personal coaching.
But I don’t want to be alone in my success - I’m just as committed to yours.
My first experience of Tapping, or the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) was a revelation. I had set some BIG goals for my business, but just writing them down triggered stress, anxiety and even nausea. The voice inside my head got louder and louder – “This is impossible! You will fail. There’s no way.” Using pressure on my acupuncture meridian points – with just the fingertips (no needles!), combined with the Cognitive Behavioral Techniques of discussing issues in a conversational manner, I had an immediate shift. Within a few minutes I felt completely, excited and motivated and full of ideas on how I COULD make my goals a reality.
Remember a time when you were dealing with someone difficult regarding getting paid?
Amid the frustration and fear that arises, some instinct is activated. You either take the money and run, or stand and fight. This fight or flight response is primitive and limiting – preventing you from seeing clearly and getting to the best solution. Tapping gets right at the fight or flight response and turns it off so you can deal with emotions and stress in an effective way.
Created by the American psychologist Dr. Roger Callahan over 25 years ago, Tapping was further refined by Gary Craig, a Stanford-trained engineer working in the peak performance field. And you know how I feel about engineers. They get things done - and they get things done fast. No wonder over 5,000 doctors, psychologists, therapists, chiropractors, hypnotherapists and healing professionals use it worldwide. In fact, it often works when nothing else will.
It is only then that you are guided through Tapping exercises that lift the HUGE weight of your inner wealth blocks and quickly shift your entire perspective to peace, clarity and openness to possibility. From this place your energy, excitement and new determination about earning, and managing money is ACTIVATED. Finally you can CREATE outrageous wealth and income goals and take action to achieve them. With additional online videos providing complementary exercises, this book is a complete multimedia experience.
“Tapping Into Wealth” comes alive in your heart, allowing everything in your life and relationships to shift dramatically. You’ll catch fire with creativity, curiosity and excitement.
Yes, it IS that powerful.
In the first half of our lives, particularly for women, we tend not to focus on ourselves - but in the second half we are free to create something new. Many women are joining the ranks of entrepreneurs and thriving with new businesses in harmony with their passions.
If you’ve read Suze Orman, or other noted and talented writers who’ve set out practical financial advice, you may already know what to do to get your financial house in order. Maybe you’ve even taken a class on money management.
But do you find yourself unable to put those ideas in practice?
You found that your dream is bigger than your reality. You found that your bank account doesn’t reflect the value of what you do.
There’s the moment of desperation. Of doubt.
You think about quitting.
You feel as though you’ve come so far and changed everything. And you’re still stuck.
I’m here to beg you not to do that.
I believe that your limited, generational programming is that “unknown factor” that Suze Orman talks about. That subconscious secret agenda holding you back.
It’s not your fault.
After all, how can you expect to move forward if you haven’t uncovered the emotions and fears wired into your mind-body connection?
But now you have the map and tools.
And when you LIBERATE yourself from that programming, taking the right actions in your money becomes simple and straightforward.
This is the most important moment of your life.
It’s time to shine the light of consciousness on your limiting vows about money.
It’s time to use Tapping to ACTIVATE your transformation.
It’s time to stand together, fully empowered to CREATE new wealth.
