Episode 121- Our Money Stories, Interview with Carrie West

In this episode of An Incomplete Guide to Personal Growth, Sydney and Kelly sit down with Carrie West, author of Money Rewritten. She explains how both the stories we inherit and the ones we tell ourselves about money can be consciously rewritten. * Carrie's story and intro * Our life is a story...it has characters, plots, themes...they can be changed * First we need to change our perspective, understand the filter of our perspective * Understand the other characters * Ending blame * Have to know our stories and patterns about money...the phrases and language we use to talk about money * Understand the "why" * The book gives steps and cause for reflection Website: anincompleteguide.com [https://anincompleteguide.com/] Instagram: @anincompleteguide [https://www.instagram.com/anincompleteguidepodcast/] YouTube: @AnIncompleteGuide [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd6aP2_3xGALoGY-gIhH5bw]

Episode 120- Energetic Boundaries

In this episode, Sydney and Kelly are getting at something subtle but really practical: the idea that your energy—your attention, emotional availability, and mental space—is a limited resource, and boundaries are how you protect and direct it. They frame “energetic boundaries” as more than just saying no to things. It’s about being aware of what you’re letting influence you and what you’re unconsciously absorbing from others. * What is an energetic boundary * Its not just the energy we receive it is also what we give out * What is the point of realizing energetic boundaries * A boundary is not a shield and are not like a brick wall * It is to know what is mine and what is yours * Sending someones energy back to them * Streams of grace * Signs you might need stronger boundaries * Energy vampires never fill your cup * Boundaries are about you Website: anincompleteguide.com [https://anincompleteguide.com/] Instagram: @anincompleteguide [https://www.instagram.com/anincompleteguidepodcast/] YouTube: @AnIncompleteGuide [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd6aP2_3xGALoGY-gIhH5bw] Patreon: patreon.com/AnIncompleteGuidetoPersonalGrowth [https://patreon.com/AnIncompleteGuidetoPersonalGrowth] Shout out to Lauren, Jake, Nicole, Cassie, and Cassidy our Patreon supporters!
