And if I were creating that rule for myself today, would I choose it?Chapters 00:00 Welcome and what this episode is about 02:19 The rules you somehow already know 04:48 What invisible rules actually are 07:13 Where the rules come from 09:34 How they show up in adult life 11:59 The "don't be difficult" and self-sacrifice rules 16:32 Healthy consideration vs something deeper 18:36 Getting curious: what are your money rules? 23:01 Rewriting the rules 25:04 Closing thoughts and your reflective questionUseful LinksWebsite: www.financialwingwoman.comEmail: [email protected]: www.linkedin.com/in/financialwingwomanInstagram: www.instagram.com/thefinancialwingwomanFacebook: www.facebook.com/thefinancialwingwomanIf this episode brings up difficult feelings, please reach out to appropriate support services in your area.#FinancialAbuse #FinancialFreedom #WomenEmpowerment #MoneyMindset #BreakingFinancialChains #FinancialControl #PersonalStory #PodcastLife #FinancialIndependence #ThinkMedia
