Women & Money Pt.1: Why Women Fear Money and Avoid Finances

from EmpowerHER Business Podcast · host Linette Cottrell/Coach/Accountant/Writer

Money can feel heavy before we even look at the numbers.If finances make you anxious, avoidant, or overwhelming—you’re not alone.In this Soul Spa reflection, we begin a gentle conversation around women and money: the fear, hesitation, and disconnect many women entrepreneurs feel when it comes to finances. For generations, women were rarely included in conversations around ownership, investing, wealth building, or financial leadership. That distance can still show up today through avoiding pricing conversations, hesitating around financial planning, or feeling disconnected from the numbers in your business.This episode offers a softer perspective: fear around money doesn’t mean you’re bad with finances or behind in business. Sometimes it reflects inherited messaging, limited exposure, or a relationship with money that never had room to fully grow. You are allowed to learn financial confidence, build wealth, and create a healthier connection with money in your own way.In this episode:Why money can feel emotionally heavy for women entrepreneursThe historical roots behind financial fear, ownership, and wealth buildingHow avoiding numbers can quietly impact business decisions and growthA gentle reframe around money confidence and financial leadershipWhy building wealth can begin with awareness—not pressureThis episode is part of The Soul Spa — short solo pauses you can return to whenever you need a moment of grounding.#WomenAndMoney #MoneyMindset #WomenEntrepreneurs #BlackWomenInBusiness #FinancialLiteracyForWomen #WomenAndWealth #WealthBuilding #BusinessFinances #MoneyMindsetForWomen #WomenInBusiness #FinancialConfidence #BusinessGrowth #MindsetShift #BlackWomenEntrepreneurs #MoneyHealing #FinancialWellness #EntrepreneurMindset #WomenWithMoney #EmpowerHERBusinessPodcast #SoulSpaSeriesSupport the show✨ Support the Podcast ✨  Become an EmpowerHER Insider for $10/month → HERE🌐 Visit website: www.empowerherbusiness.us 📧 For speaking & sponsorships: [email protected]  📱 Connect on Instagram: HERE @empowerher_biz Together, we’re helping women entrepreneurs thrive beyond Year Five!
