Fridays with Vicky 142
Things we hear growing up a lot of times becomes our “truth” and reality. That or we rebel doing the total opposite.
Does this mean that it has to be true to us? Everything we heard about money growing up is that now our beliefs?
No, not at all.
But, if you constantly hear things we tend to take them on as our own beliefs.
For me, it’s been very noticeable around money. This applies to all different aspects of our life but money is actually a great example.
If you hear growing up that “rich people are greedy” or “money is the root of all evil” and you take on that belief, well you’re probably not wanting to be one. Nobody wants to be seen as greedy or contribute to evil…
What Memories Do YOU Have Around Money?
Some might be obvious, but some you really need to dig deep for. The thing is if these memories have negative energy around them, they could for sure block you. A typical example is if you get stuck at a certain income level for years. There could be a money memory around that income level that you might not even think of.
It could be that you don’t want to earn more than your spouse. It could be that you don’t want to earn more than one of your parents. It could be that your boss told you “that’s what you are worth”.
When you start digging it’s really interesting, it actually makes a lot of sense.
Some blocks seem very clear, some are hiding and you are not even aware of them at this point.
After doing some digging I realized I have a lot of blocks. Some of them really took some digging to figure out, but when I did it all made sense.
A lot of my blocks seem to be around wanting to fit in. Not stick out too much or take too much “space”. I want people to like and accept me… This has blocked me in many ways when it comes to my business and procrastination plays a big role.
Can you relate? Maybe you have some other good ones.
Maybe you have some other juicy money memories or blocks?
How Do You Digg Deep to Find Your Money Memories and Blocks?
There are many ways to bring these money memories up to the surface.
One lady that talks a lot about money memories and money blocks is Denise from the Money Bootcamp. She’s a down to earth Aussie, that has figured all this out for herself living the life of her dreams. Now also teaching others how to dig deep and find those money blocks and money memories, and most importantly how to deal with them.
If it wasn’t for her I wouldn’t be where I am today.
I joined Denise early 2017, in July 2017 I had reached and past, my total yearly income of 2016. So with 5 months left of the year, 5 good months of black Friday and Christmas shopping I’m on the track to have a great income year.
I believe that clearing my money blocks and some of the memories around it made me realize if others can do it WHY NOT me, I can reach the money goals that I set…
The mind shift leads to viewing things differently, to taking action. That action is now paying off.
How Do You Deal with The Money Blocks and Money Memories?
The most important part is to acknowledge and deal with the blocks and memories. Denise help you bring them to the surface but most importantly also gives you tools to deal with them.
Cause when you discover these blocks and memories, what do you do with them?
Denise has taught me some really great helpful ways that can help with not only money issues but deal with stress, blocks, and life in general.

I grew up with listening to some “money blocks” as a part of a regular life, think this can happens in any family.
Today, we are so lucky to find great information about how to find our if we have any money blocks deep in our mind and how to work it out to do better in life.
Thanks for sharing this great article.

I think most of us grew up hearing some of those “money block” comments at times. I believe the key is awareness and deciding if you want to take on those comments and thoughts as your own “truth” or deciding to let them go.
