Redefining Generosity As a Spiritual Person

Updated: Feb 7

Dear friends,


Today I thought I’d share a little personal storytime on my biggest money mistake.


Unfortunately this isn’t a mistake I just made one time, it was an established pattern of behaviour over a long period of time that cost me greatly.


That mistake was being too generous. And it’s one I know a lot of people make, but particularly those who identify as spiritual.


Anyway let me go back and paint you a picture.


As some of you know, I’d experienced a lot of financial (amongst other) abuse from my mother growing up and it took me a long while to physically extricate myself from that situation. When I was finally able to buy my own apartment and move out, it was initially a financial strain. But I was expecting a BIG promotion the following year which thankfully I got!


That promotion had me crossing 6 figures for the first time in my career (which was a massive jump from where I was), and I was living alone without many responsibilities other than my mother. I felt objectively wealthy - prematurely because I didn’t know that wealth building went beyond having a high income.


I’d always been generous but now I was able to give at a much higher level. If someone needed to start a business? I was there. Someone was having a birthday? Well I would cover it. Charities? First in line to support. Someone just became homeless? Have them talk to me. Church? Counted on to support every initiative and tithe faithfully.


Even at work, I would take each of my team members out for lunch regularly, I would always cover the bill and not ask the company to reimburse me.


Everyone was happy to take my money, but no one seemed to give me any advice other than “it’s better to give than receive” and “when you give to the poor, God will repay”.


And honestly, it felt really good to BE this person. I felt proud of it.


But here is the truth, this was the action of a deeply broken person who desired to be loved and to be seen as GOOD. It wasn’t the action of someone who truly understood their long term financial situation or what they could truly afford. It was someone trying to buy love, care and attention by swooping in and saving people with money.


And for a time it worked.


But in the long run I learned three important lessons: 1) You can’t save anyone,  2) You can’t buy love and 3) Your capacity to give (without hurting yourself in the long run) is LOWER than you think it is.


I wish I’d had a mentor who could have helped me understand this earlier. I would have avoided much of these behaviours.


Now I have clear parameters on how much I give, who I give to and WHY I give. I’m still a very generous person but I am much more grounded in my approach.


These are the kind of behaviours that I uncover with you in The Channeled Money Audit. You don’t have to go through all of this, you can learn from my mistakes. Even if you aren’t making as much as you like now, you can start to prepare for a time when you will.


This isn’t just a one hour call. You get a documented plan to follow that includes personalised, practical AND spiritual tactics you can use to Manifest, Make & Manage money. If you book a session by 8/8 you also get 1 week of private voice or text messaging to help you integrate everything AND 1 year inside The Manifestation Challenge FREE. 


This is an incredible opportunity for someone who wants to build the right financial foundation.

With love,
