Being of Service to Others Should Be the Foundation of Our Financial Why [3:10]
Why does money matter to women?
Yael says, money matters to women because it is the way we create an impact in the world.
Marni asks, how can women create abundance and not be attached to abundance?
This is one of the complex parts for people, Yael says. Everyone needs to design goals for their lives, financial and personal goals.
God says let go of the outcome, just show up with your ‘why’, and do what you need to do.
Are your financial goals me-centered or God-centered?
Common Limiting Beliefs Women Have About Money [11:29]
While beliefs vary Yael says three common limiting beliefs women have about money are:
There is not enough. — Not true as money is infinite.
I’m not good at this. — While women, in general, haven’t been taught about money as much as males, it doesn’t mean it has to be your reality.
It is something men do. — Don’t rely on some version of Prince Charming to take care of it.
You can have the money, the health, the marriage, you can have everything.
Parental Responsibilities Around Money [27:46]
Yael reminds us that children are learning about money whether parents intentionally teach them or not. They watch the way you behave and listen to the way you speak but through a child’s eyes and ears.
