Getting Real Around Money - a podcast by Carla Royal, Juliet Fay

Here’s what we explored:

• when we get curious we may notice hidden biases around money: judgement towards those with lots of money and/or judgement towards those without money
• our beliefs around money are often inherited from our families and cultures: disdain, desire, disavowal, resentment, fear, discomfort, deep need
• thinking around money can be laden with judgement and take up a huge amount of mental energy
• our money beliefs are often contradictory and unhelpful in our day to day life
• as we pay less attention to our beliefs, they tend to quieten down
• the level of anxious thinking is not determined by how much money you have
• both extreme wealth and poverty can be accompanied by a feeling of scarcity
• a feeling of abundance comes, less from WHAT you have and more from your relationship to what you have
• we recognise that there are many who are held down by systems of oppression which directly impact on their health, education and economic security
• we recognise, as white, educated women, it is a form of privilege to be able to self-sabotage ourselves around money
• and yet, we all have the possibility of connection with something bigger than ourselves
• many people in our world are suffering extreme hardship and opening our hearts to see where we can offer practical help, is common sense
• to create a world that is equitable where we share resources with everyone requires a change of heart on a mass scale
• fear of not having enough food, money, energy or love can leave us utterly destitute inside however much money we have
• that craving is a longing for connection which is not found outside ourselves
• get curious about your definition of abundance - there's no guarantee a feeling of abundance is to be found in material goods
• in agriculture, fields lie fallow to help maintain the soil in good heart
• unlimited growth, individually or as nations, simply doesn't work, it requires stimulants to keep going
• a deeper connection with self, others and nature is what brings a richer more abundant feeling which isn't tied to what we have in material terms
• simply recognising what we are doing with our minds, that takes us away from 'being in good heart" is more helpful than 'rugby tackling' our beliefs around money
