From talking about environmental issues to sharing her understanding of autism and neuro divergence, Melanie is using her profile to open up these frank conversations that women need to be having.

During our conversation, Melanie and I discussed neuro divergence and how it had an impact on our money beliefs, and despite not being diagnosed until later in life, the steps that we took to manage this.

The nervous system plays a really important role in wealth accumulation and wealth sustainability.

Running a successful business requires us as CEOs to have sustainable energy along with a business model that supports freedom and flexibility. As an employee, we find switching off for time off much easier than when we have our own business. Taking time off is essential and getting stuck in masculine energy of doing and pushing only leads to burnout.

Preparing your finances for an extended period of leave is key to achieving freedom be that maternity leave, holiday or a sabbatical. Give yourself permission to take that time for you.

When in a relationship, it is quite common to have a different belief system and money narrative. Having differing relationships with money can be quite supportive if you're able to communicate in a really positive way, which isn't always possible.

In this episode of the It’s Not About The Money podcast (formerly the In Her Financial Shoes podcast) I am sharing how I went from £30,000 of debt to 7 figure businesses and angel investment.

I have just come back to the office after hosting my Wealth Awakening Retreat in Jersey where I was joined by some of the ladies in my community. We spent the week opening dialogue around money, clearing limited beliefs and celebrating financial empowerment. I always come back from these events energised and reflective of my own journey.

In this episode of the It’s Not About The Money podcast (formerly the In Her Financial Shoes podcast) I am talking all about the four stages of wealth and how to navigate them.

It can be easy to think that we need to tackle all areas of wealth at the same time. When I was getting out of debt I wanted stability but also to feel like I was creating an impact. When we try to prioritise all areas, you end up not prioritising anything and then not staying in any one stage successfully.

Often what we need is the solid foundation of mindset, behaviours and habits. At each stage you build resilience that helps maintain momentum. The tips in this episode will help you identify which stage of wealth you are currently at, how you can move to the next stage and what you need to do to stay there.

In this episode:

• Why time is a key player in creating wealth

• How to create a financial buffer easily

• The impact of needs and wants on your finances

• Recognise the importance of fostering good energy flow

• How to create a system where your money pays for your lifestyle
