Podcast Episode #21:

How to Clear Emotional Blocks to Money


(35 Minutes)

Are you really comfortable with having more money? The answer might surprise you. One of the biggest emotional blocks to attracting and having more money than you’re used to is that there’s actually discomfort there. It sounds crazy, but it’s true. Our conditioning and emotional patterns around money are particularly strong and can trigger uncomfortable emotions like fear, shame, guilt, anxiety and others that block you from having the financial abundance and ease around money that you really want. 


That’s why, in this episode, we’re talking about the places a lot of people get emotionally uncomfortable around money. And I’ll show you how to shift those patterns and clear your money blocks to prime yourself for prosperity.

How to Feel Unshakably Calm When Outside Your Comfort Zone


(30 Minutes)

Never being in an uncomfortable situation in life is impossible, since life IS a constant ebb and flow of positive and negative or good and challenging things. The goal is not to expect your life to always be perfect but to grow your capacity to navigate its ebbs and flows with greater levels of calm, peace, joy and giving.


In this episode, we talk about four GOOD reasons to purposely mess up your happiness (wait wha?) so you can experience unshakable calm in times of discomfort. PLUS two ways Melanie intentionally trains her brain to immediately access wisdom, inspiration and ideas in the face of challenges – and you can, too!

      own happiness! (1:07)

    •        Finding out you don't need an "escape
             button" for challenges in your life

    •        Gaining access to calm, intuitive insight
             before a challenge occurs

    •       Making your core comfort and contentment

    • What Melanie does every day (it only takes a
      few minutes!) to grow her capacity to weather
      life’s ebbs and flows. (12:38)

    • The physical and emotional cost to you of NOT
      doing this every day. (HINT: It has to do with
      your brain’s amygdala and a lion chase.)  (14:01)

    • Why Melanie intentionally messes up her own
      happiness (a little) to grow her capacity to
      handle challenges (ALOT) -- and you should
      too! (26:46)
