Unlocking Your Financial Potential: How Changing Your Money Language Can Change Your Life

Unlocking Your Financial Potential: How Changing Your Money Language Can Change Your Life

I wasn’t sure about posting this one… 

Because I know positively reframing the language you use around your money situation massively helps in shifting beliefs and overcoming financial blocks 💸

But I also know it’s super important to acknowledge and process the negative feelings around our finances.

In my work as a Small Business CFO,  I often talk through fears and negative feelings around money with my clients and connections. And in doing so, we create a safe space for them to vent and be honest about their situation and the raw feelings that bubble up. Together, we work through these negative emotions and create some practical steps forward, bringing in my commercial skills and experiences from working with other business owners in similar situations.And in doing so, we build a more positive outlook and confidence.

But let’s be real, if you’re going through a rough time of it, simply being told to reframe your language without a plan and strategy can be a little annoying.

However, I also believe in the power of manifestation and that our thoughts create our reality. So, if you’re looking for ways to transform your money language, to help you positively reframe your relationship with money, I’ve put together some language swaps for you to try out to give you some  inspiration and ideas 

And I’d love to know your thoughts – have you found positive reframes around your finances to be helpful?

Here are some language swaps to try:

Instead of saying: “I’m terrible with money!” Try saying: “I’m improving my financial knowledge and taking positive steps towards financial well-being”

Instead of saying: “I’m sinking in business debts!” Try saying: “I’m taking action to manage my business debts and I have faith in my abilities to turn it around”

Instead of saying: “I’m not sure I even have a viable business!” Try saying: “I’m actively working to assess and improve the viability of my business. I have the creativity and resilience to adapt and succeed”

Instead of saying: “I can’t charge that much!” Try saying: “I deserve to be fully & fairly compensated for my skills, time & efforts”

Instead of saying: “I’ll never earn enough money running my business” Try saying: “I’m exploring new ways to grow and improve my business and financial success is inevitable”

Instead of saying: “Business finances are too complicated and overwhelming” Try saying: “I follow Harriet’s training and she breaks business finance into simple easy to understand steps”

By changing the way you talk about your finances, you can transform your relationship with money and create a more positive financial reality for yourself and your business.

Because neuroscience, manifestation, and the law of attraction all suggest that what you say creates your financial reality.

How you talk about your finances matters.
