⚡Is Shame Sabotaging Your Financial Success?

Hello Reader, Shame thrives in silence. When our money stories go unacknowledged, shame takes root—either paralyzing us (freezing us in fear and doubt) or making us overcompensate (working harder than we need to out of defensiveness). Neither is good for business. That’s why I was so grateful for the chance to have a deeply honest conversation on the Unbreakable Business Podcast by Honeybook. In this episode, I shared some vulnerable Money Stories from past clients—stories that many of us carry but rarely talk about. Simply bringing these experiences into the open is powerful. Simply talking about money is how to break free from shame’s grip, and that’s exactly what happened during this conversation. The host, Akua Konadu, shared how her experience as a first-generation American has shaped her business journey—both positively and negatively. Acknowledging those stories was a breakthrough moment. I’d love for you to listen in and see if any of these stories resonate with you. You’re not alone. Your experiences with money, business, and success deserve to be seen and understood. 🎧 Listen to the episode here! Hit reply and let me know what stands out for you—I’d love to hear your thoughts! To your success, |

Hi Reader, “I need momma,” she said with those big, soulful eyes. I was finishing a Zoom call and my 3-year-old daughter had wandered into my office. Every instinct in me wanted to scoop her up and drop everything else. But I also knew—I had a business to run. A business that pays the rent, keeps the lights on, and provides for the very child standing in front of me. So I did what felt like the hardest thing in that moment: I set a boundary. I pulled her in for a quick hug, but I said: “I...
Hi Reader, I clicked to review this tax return and winced. This new client started with us in February 2025. So while we can prepare and file her 2024 tax returns on time, we’re very limited in the strategies we can use to reduce her taxes. The year is already over. Which is why my face was now scrunched and unhappy. 😬 This client’s tax bracket was 24%. In the US, you pay different tax amounts at different levels of income. If you’re a single filer in 2024: You pay 10% tax on your first $0 -...
Hello Reader, Back in October 2016, I was a starry-eyed—yet completely broke—actress. My love affair with money was just beginning. I had a business license, an online course on starting a bookkeeping business, and a 400-square-foot apartment so cramped there wasn’t room for a desk. Every evening, I’d balance my computer on my lap and shove the dog over so I could sit on my smelly, second-hand couch from college—less than 100 feet from the stove, where my husband was making way too much noise...
