We're afraid of conflict, so we will ignore, dismiss, or blow off handling money because we're so scared of conflict with our loved ones, partners, spouses, parents, banks, lenders, and investment institutions. Maybe we're intimidated and don't want to deal with that feeling.
Another reason we give up our power around money is that we're afraid of facing
responsibility and being a financial grownup. We worry that it'll be too much, that we'll make
mistakes, that somehow we'll mess it up. And sometimes, we wish for someone else to take care of us and save us from taking responsibility for ourselves.
Another way we give our power away around money is that we're afraid of what others will
think of us- if we make too much or too little- and we make decisions based on
others' opinions versus what's true for us. Another reason we give our power away around
money is because we're afraid of looking like a failure.
This is a fear of humiliation in front of our parents, our families, and our partners. I didn't follow through again. I couldn't make it work again. I'm always a disappointment. I'll never be good enough. I'm a bad bet. Another reason we give our power away around money is we're afraid of disempowering someone. If I make money, then I lose my relationship. So, if we're successful, we believe we might make things worse for someone we love. Sis is conscious, and sometimes, it is under the surface.
