How to Heal & Rewrite Your Money Story
Did you know that your personal relationship with money is shaped by a powerful narrative you’ve been telling yourself, often without realizing it? This is your money story—the deeply rooted beliefs, feelings, and patterns around money shaped by your upbringing, experiences, and culture.
We all have a money story. Whether you’re a seasoned entrepreneur, a budding business owner, or managing your household, this story influences how you handle money, make financial decisions, and approach your goals.
For some, their money story is empowering—a source of confidence and security. For others, it’s fraught with fear, scarcity, or even shame. It might tell you that money is hard to come by, that you don’t deserve abundance, or that wealth is tied to guilt or greed.
But here’s the good news: your money story isn’t set in stone. You can rewrite it.
If you’re ready to uncover the beliefs holding you back, heal your relationship with money, and embrace financial ease and abundance, this guide will show you how.
Step 1: Unearth Your Money Story
The first step in rewriting your money story is discovering what it is. Awareness is a powerful tool. Reflect on your relationship with money by asking yourself:
- What messages about money did I receive as a child?
- Do I associate money with joy, stress, or something else entirely?
- What patterns show up in how I earn, spend, or save money?
Take time to journal your thoughts. Or, for a deeper dive, carry a notebook with you for 24 hours and jot down any money-related thoughts that come to mind. Pay attention to recurring themes.
Step 2: Challenge Limiting Beliefs
Once you’ve identified the beliefs shaping your money story, it’s time to challenge the ones that don’t serve you. Ask yourself:
- Is this belief absolutely true?
- Where did this belief come from?
- What evidence do I have that disproves this belief?
- What might happen if I let it go?
For example, if you believe, “I’ll never make enough money,” look for evidence to the contrary. Have you ever earned more than expected? Managed to pay off debt? These small moments prove that abundance is possible.
Step 3: Rewrite Your Money Story
Now, let’s rewrite your money story into one that reflects abundance, empowerment, and joy. Start by flipping your limiting beliefs into positive affirmations.
For example:
- Old belief: “I’m bad with money.”
- New belief: “I am confident and capable of managing my finances.”
Write affirmations that align with how you want to feel about earning, spending, saving, and investing. Be bold and unapologetic. Your new story should make you feel expansive, excited, and aligned with your goals.
Step 4: Align Your Goals with Your New Story
With your empowering money story in place, it’s time to set actionable goals. Think about your short- and long-term financial desires.
For instance:
- Launch an automated sales funnel so money flows to you effortlessly.
- Save for a dream vacation while enjoying the journey of saving.
- Invest in support by hiring a team, freeing up your time to focus on growth.
Write down your goals, make them specific and measurable, and keep them visible.
Step 5: Get Support
Transforming your money story is a deeply personal journey, but you don’t have to do it alone. Seek out mentors, join masterminds, or work with a coach who understands the intersection of money and mindset.
Having support creates accountability and provides encouragement as you step into your financial power.
Rewrite Your Future
Healing your money story is more than just a financial exercise—it’s an act of self-love and empowerment. When you rewrite your money story, you rewrite your future. You’ll show up differently in your business, attract aligned opportunities, and cultivate lasting abundance.
You deserve to feel good about money. You deserve financial ease and joy. And it all starts with telling yourself a new story.
