3: Foundation of Freedom | 4 ways how to create a budget & finally stop surviving
Hello my girl! 🥂
This week I traveled to Amsterdam and even though I enjoyed it so much, it was really tighting my budget. I wanted to say no, but in the end when I saw my friends so excited of me going, I said yes.
You can see my face few days later when I saw the airplane tickets and my realizations that the hotel is already booked 😅 Lesson learnt, but I was upset with myself: “You can say no to these invitations, what happened?”
So I sat with it and firstly, of course, I spot the little people pleaser in me, we had a conversation and I believe next time I will be more present in decisions like this.
But the more I sat with that, the clearer the truth became:
I was not only upset because of the people pleasing, I was upset as my financial stability was threatened by my decision. And that led me to my very first lesson, when I was getting my life together.
This is where getting your life together actually begins.Not with manifestation.Not with aesthetics.But with security.But with security.
Which is exactly why this week’s episode goes straight for the root.
