Best of Instagram for Business: Money Mindset

Money money money, must be funny... In this episode, Nat and Ang are joined with special guest, Financial Advisor, Paula Wilimek. The ladies chat about money mindset, your money story and how it shapes your perception of your self worth. Here's a glimpse at some of the questions they cover:Why do you think some people have money issues?Paula shares the reality that none of us have a financial literacy background,  which is why people have pulled their money beliefs from their family experience.She remarks that shame around money is learned and that we are ill-equipped as adults because of the lack of financial literacy training. And instead of asking for help, we feel the need to shame ourselves. “Your money story doesn’t go away… you have different versions or it evolves.”What is your take on business owners that are playing small?Nat asks if she feels that it is based on fear or scarcity? Paula agrees that yes, scarcity and fear come into play and that as business owners, we are forced to handle “all of our stuff.”Nat shares a quote from the book, You Are a Bad Ass at Making Money by Jen Sincero, “rich is able to afford all things and experiences required to fully experience your most authentic life while the amount of money you will need will depend…”What are your thoughts on entrepreneurs investing in their business (financially)?Paula reminds us that the investment is always there. There are (and will always) be opportunities to invest in growth as the landscape of business is constantly changing. She shares her experience in investing in workshops and courses, including Nat’s Social Media Content Workshop. She remarks that even just the landscape of social media has opened up opportunities to learn and grow and how important social media is to our business. Shame, guilt, self-worth, your value and money story are all the topics the ladies discuss.
