Hey there! Alejandra here, and today I wanted to share something that's close to my heart: subconscious blocks with money and how they affect our self-worth. In this episode of The Money Mindset Show, I dive into three specific narratives that can hold us back in our business growth.,Firstly, I want to emphasize that a stagnant stage in your business does not define your worth as a person. It's important to detach your identity from your business and financial results. Think of it as your business being separate from you, like raising a baby who grows and develops but is not who you are.,Secondly, I challenge the notion that the more you value yourself, the more you should charge. Self-worth is a birthright and not directly linked to your income. I'll share my personal belief that self-worth doesn't play a role in my relationship with money – a perspective that can liberate you from feeling stuck.,Lastly, we delve into the fear of becoming like our parents when it comes to our money mindset. By identifying ways in which you feel you're mirroring their beliefs, you can challenge and reframe them, creating your own understanding and approach.,If you're an entrepreneur struggling with self-worth and feeling like your business is at a standstill, this episode is for you. Gain the confidence and mindset shift needed to overcome subconscious blocks and experience real growth. Let's break free from self-imposed limitations and achieve what we're truly capable of!
