Q: “I avoid looking at my finances because it stresses me out. How do I change that?”
A: First, I want to say this with so much understanding, this is incredibly common.
Avoidance around money usually isn’t about laziness or lack of discipline. It’s often rooted in conditioned beliefs and past experiences that shape how we see and interact with money.
So instead of forcing yourself to “be better,” I want you to start smaller.
Try creating a moment that feels safe, not stressful.
Maybe that looks like:
- Looking at your accounts for just five minutes
- Sitting somewhere comfortable, not at your desk
- Reminding yourself that you’re not here to judge anything, just to notice
Over time, those small, safe moments start to rebuild trust with your money.
And when that trust builds, the stress begins to soften.
Here’s to your prosperity!
