Will they take you to a place of feeling peace and ease and freedom with money? If the answer is no, then this episode could not come at a more perfect moment for you.

I'm Kendall, and I'm going to introduce you to the concept of money thought work. I'm going to share with you my three best money thoughts, how to apply these thoughts to your life in business, and the one question you always want to ask if you find yourself experiencing resistance to these new money thoughts. It's all here for you in this episode of The Money Coach School Podcast. Let's dive in.

Welcome to The Money Coach School Podcast. To really excel at coaching women, you have to be skilled, confident, and even fearless at money coaching. If you're passionate about women holding genuine money power and love supporting women entrepreneurs, then this is the show for you. Now, here's your host, money feminist Kendall SummerHawk.

Hello, beautiful coaches. I am so excited to have you here with me for this episode of The Money Coach School Podcast. I have been having so much fun creating each episode of the podcast for you. We're about two and a half months into it since we launched, and every week, I have like three new ideas for episodes for you.

What's fascinating is just to watch where my intuition is taking me to go with these episodes. You're probably already noticing that for right now at least, I'm not coming to you with tips on money management. Not that there's anything wrong with that. It's just that that's information you know what, you can find on Google. While it's incredibly helpful, for sure, what I think is unique and rare and special about this podcast, The Money Coach School Podcast, is looking at how to manage your mind around money.

This is so, so, so much more important because all of the practical tips in the world, they won't matter if you're not into it mentally and emotionally. Because really and truly, money is emotion for us women. We're only going to be willing to do what we need to, to create, have, and hold more money when we feel empowered and resourceful and brave.

So yes, while in future episodes, I will be more than happy to share practical money management and money handling tips with you, for right now, if you're coming back to listen to episode after episode, and I hope you are, it's going to be because you want to create a much richer, happier, more fulfilling relationship with money for yourself. You want to learn how to be incredible at money coaching other women. Now, be sure to hit the follow button right now on your listening device so that you don't miss any of our future episodes.

So today, I want to introduce you to the concept of money thought work. This is something I go into in depth with my clients and my secret energy of money training. There's an entire process that I created called intentional money thought creation that you can use to transform any challenge, any issue in your life or business, and transform it or really transmute it in about 15 minutes into an entirely new experience. Complete with new thoughts, new emotions, and clarity about your next steps. It is truly magical, and I love teaching it so much.

But for today, I want to introduce you to money thought work by sharing with you three best thoughts about money. Here's what's behind this. You are in relationship with money every day of your adult life. Every day. There is not a day that goes by without you being in relationship with money. That means that every day you're thinking certain thoughts about money. As a result of those thoughts, you're feeling certain emotions.

But for most people, they stay in an unconscious place about their money thoughts. So as a consequence, they often feel buffeted about by their emotions when it comes to money. They feel out of control, or they don't even realize that they can have control. So then they default into feeling scarcity or fear or anxiousness or confusion or worry, none of which is helpful, and none of which leads to being self-empowered with money.

I want something different for you. I want you to master your money emotions. That starts with your thoughts about money. Every emotion we feel as humans initiates from our thoughts. I think this is one of the most incredible things ever. So now what I see is that most people are so into thinking whatever their thoughts are about money that they habitually think that they're not thinking about out their money thinking. Now I know that's a little bit of a brain twister. But it's really true. It's like you can just have thoughts about money, and whatever they are is whatever they are.

Or you can consciously think about those thoughts that you want to have about money. You can practice those thoughts, which will automatically create a very different set of emotions for you, which has this incredibly exciting cascade effect of then supporting you in making different, infinitely more helpful decisions that positively support you in creating, having, and holding more money. That's how the flow works, my beautiful friend. From thought to emotion to decision to creating, having, and holding more money. That's it. That's the flow.

So the question I asked myself was what are three of my best thoughts about money that I can give to you to help kickstart your money thinking? Because why struggle to search for the best money thoughts when I can just give you some of mine, right? Why not take advantage of the decades of money thought work I've already done and use these thoughts as a quick start for you to start making different decisions regarding money.

Understand, though, that these are just three best money thoughts. I easily have 20 more, and I'm sure I'll share those too, in a different episode of this podcast. Just know that these three best money thoughts are here for you to embrace and to start thinking for yourself. Something will shift for you when you do this. Something will change, and I would love to hear from you your experience of hearing and utilizing these money thoughts. You can drop me an email at podcast@kendallsummerhawk.com, and I'll put that email address in the show notes as well.

All right, so here they are. Three best money thoughts. Number one, it's easier to make more money than it is to make less. I love starting with this one because it's the most likely to rub up against the notion that you have to work harder and harder to make more money, which is simply not true. Why it's easier to make more money than it is to make less is very simple, but you have to be willing to shift out of the notion that time equals money.

Most of us have been imprinted since birth into believing that you get paid for your time spent. An hour worked is an hour paid for. Two hours worked, two hours paid for. This is factory worker thinking. It's Industrial Age thinking. So in that paradigm, the only way a person can make more money is to work more hours, to work harder. It's very important if you're someone who wants to make more money that you switch into a different paradigm. That you switch into the paradigm of it's easier to make more money than it is to make less.

This paradigm is based on the idea that you are paid on value and contribution, not on time. So, for example, as a coach, embracing this best money thought will support you and shifting out of thinking about equating your pricing to how many sessions you deliver or to the length of your program. It's going to shift you into looking not only at the results your clients experience right now from your coaching, but the value of those results over months and even into years. So, for example, when I think of my Sacred Money Archetypes certified coach training, the investment someone makes by enrolling in that certification, it can be recouped within just one, two, maybe three clients, but that's only at the surface level.

When I think about the income possibilities that someone can achieve by offering Sacred Money Archetypes in their business over the next several years, that return or result increases dramatically and many, many times over their initial tuition.

I want to challenge you that if this best money thought that it's easier to make more money than it is to make less feels challenging in any way. If you find yourself wanting to say but Kendall in any way that you really get curious about it. Because it means that it's rubbing up against a deeply ingrained belief that it's now time to break free of.

You can self-coach on this by keep asking yourself what if this were true? What if it really was true that it's easier to make more money than it is to make less? Keep peeling the layers back on that question as you begin to adopt this best money thought as your own.

Best money thought number two. Money will always command your attention. Positively or negatively, the choice is up to you. Money loves attention. It will not be ignored. It will not be shoved to the side. I think this is so, so important because, remember, money is emotion. When those emotions are uncomfortable in any way, it's a natural human function to want to avoid looking at it, and I get that. But that is letting the primitive part of your brain be in charge of your money. That is not a wise assignment of responsibility.

So even when it may feel uncomfortable to look at money, to look at your money reality, to look at your money habits, or income, or bank accounts, or bills, or whatever, trust me, you're far, far better off doing just that, looking at it, rather than ignoring it. Because money will always get your attention. I want you to be in control of the experience you create with money.

Ignoring money never works out well. But when you give money attention, no matter what emotions you may feel at first, you're opening the door for you to be the leader of your money life. You're opening the door for you to get help, to get support, and to make informed decisions. I can assure you that every single time I've ever been in a problematic money situation. By looking at it, I've always, always made decisions that resulted in a positive outcome every single time.

All right, best money thought number three. Deeply understanding your money archetype will create results multiple times faster. Your sacred money archetype combination, which is your top three highest scoring money archetypes using my quiz, explains what makes you tick with money. What motivates you with money, what challenges you with money better than any other tool out there. Every money archetype has the capacity to create wealth and the capacity to create their own version of peace with money.

If you've not yet taken the quiz, this is a must do right now. You can go to sacredmoneyquiz.com, and I'll also drop that link in the show notes. Not knowing your sacred money archetypes will slow you down considerably in creating a healthy, positive relationship with money. Not knowing your sacred money archetypes will prevent you from understanding why you are naturally inclined the way that you are not only towards money, but about every aspect of your life and business as well.

There are so many layers to your sacred money archetypes for people like you who care about self-development, who are intuitive, who are sensitive, and who wants to make a lot of money. Sacred money archetypes is your tool to creating deep compassion for who you are. Doesn't that feel good just hearing me say that? Creating deep compassion for who you are so that you can drop the self-judgment and the accompanying guilt or shame. Instead, fully embrace your strengths. Yes, even embrace your shadow side. Because it's all part of what makes you, you.

I honestly cannot imagine how in the world I would ever have become a self-made millionaire without knowing my sacred money archetypes. So I really encourage you to check that quiz out. If you want to bring this incredible body of work to your clients and integrate it into your healing, or your coaching, or your therapy, or training, or the professional work that you do, definitely check out the certification I offer in it as well.

So as the creator for Sacred Money Archetypes, we are the sole source for certification. We would love to have you get certified in this truly transformational money coaching system. I'll drop a link to the certification page in the show notes.

So these are my three best money thoughts. Number one, it's easier to make more money than it is to make less. Number two, money will always command your attention positively or negatively. The choice is up to you. Number three, deeply understanding your money archetypes will create results multiple times faster.

I hope you'll take these into your life. Use them to challenge old ways of thinking. If you find yourself doubting these beliefs, these thoughts, or pushing up against them in some way, just know that means that you're flushing out all beliefs that may no longer be serving you.

Take each of these three best money thoughts and keep asking yourself what if this were true? These are the money thoughts that have changed my life, changed the life of my clients inside of my coaching programs and my certification trainings, and they can absolutely change your life as well. These are the three best money thoughts that I use to become a self-made multimillionaire. All right, that's it. You've got this.
