Have you ever noticed how good it feels to spend money on other people
…but when it comes to spending the same on yourself, you feel:
Stressed wondering if you “should” be spending it.
Guilty knowing some of your choices are non-essentials and luxurious.
Worried about what others might think of you, or “Am I just judging myself?”

If you can relate, you are not the only one
and this stress can get kicked up especially during the holiday season.
That’s exactly why I’m offering a workshop in December to explore the tangled web of emotions so many of us grapple with around money, generosity, and worthiness.
“Guilt Gave It All Away” is your sanctuary to escape the holiday stress,
if only for 90 minutes, and take a full breath in a virtual room full of women who get it.
It’s your chance to take all the thoughts, worries, and emotions that build up when you try to balance the opinions and needs of everyone else with the holiday season you wanted to enjoy.
Here is your space to unravel and flush the overwhelm from your mind and lay it out so we can sort through this together without judgment or being needlessly hard on yourself.
Imagine if last year was the last holiday season you ever regretfully lashed out on your kids because they “ruined” dinner,
or cried Christmas evening because you didn’t receive the meaningful gift you really wanted (although never actually asked for…)

“Guilt Gave it All Away” will help you
understand why you get frustrated or resentful, or start to feel defeated and guilty when all you’re trying to do is create something special for the people you love by doing some of the things you most enjoy:
gift giving, decorating your home, taking an extra hour for yourself…
What if you no longer felt angry or rolled your eyes when you hear another mom talk about the overpriced gifts she gave her coworkers because now you genuinely feel settled in your values, priorities, and choices - during the holiday season, and all year round.
Maybe you become the fancy woman who gives all your friends great gifts, or maybe you become the family that confidently gives no gifts at all because you decide to spend your money on a extravagant family trip each summer, instead.
Either way:
This workshop is your key to take your power back and feel clear, at ease, and peacefully confident about where you choose to spend your money and why -
so you can get back to just being who you are, enjoying who you’re with, and leaning into all the lavish, fun, frivolous, and meaningful parts of this time of year.

Workshop Overview
This is for you if you dread the gift giving season every year, feel guilty about how much you have and like you’re supposed to give it all away, or are sick of starting the new year by looking at your credit card statement with regret, upset at yourself and wondering where it all went.
I will hold your hand and stand by your side to guide you and give you the tools you need to unravel the endless lists, pressures, comparison, confusion, stress, anger, and questions in your mind and walk away with a clear understanding of your priorities–and a path to align your spending and relationship with money to those values and priorities.
This workshop is designed to be transformative for you with both insightful guidance and reflection and clear, simple tools so you can navigate the fine line between expressing your generosity through giving and respecting your own sense of self-worth and value.

What to Expect
Only the most empowering, fun, and transformative conversation you've ever had about money -
Plus permission to finally stop overspending on everyone else …and maybe even buy yourself the damn diamond earrings you've had your eyes on 😉
“You maximized the time, were VERY interactive, and all around just a joy to experience. I didn’t expect to be moved or even participate so much. I’m genuinely better after the 90 minutes we spent in the workshop! Like seriously, thank you! It was amazing!”
Specifically:
💵 We’ll directly discuss the double-bind women are often in (especially evident over the holidays) and learn how this trap is costing you money and depleting your wealth.
🩰 We’ll challenge “Good Girl” conditioning that leads many women to prioritize giving to others or being “smart” with money instead of making the truly smart decision to invest in herself.
❤️🩹 We'll unpack the ways women often seek validation and love, and gain “aha” insights about how even well-intentioned behaviors with money, spending, and giving can actually break your sense of self-worth (and what to do instead).
In other words: We’ll check the common roles you may be taking on (especially this time of year) such as peace-keeper, caregiver, people-pleaser, and hostess-with-the-mostess - and recenter how to value yourself as a whole, complex, and inherently worthy woman.
😳 I’ll share the number one belief that negatively impacts your well-being and your financial health - and reveal the practice wealthy women embody that allows them to prioritize relationships AND money (without guilt or stress).
🎁 I’ll give away the “secret tool” I use with my clients to create a sense of empowerment, peace of mind, and giddy excitement for them to ditch spending guilt and start enjoying their money with ALL of their values.
“The instant impact was learning to find the psychological root of why I look at money the way I do, embracing it, and changing the narrative for the good.”

Why Attend
Our money patterns affect us all year, not just over the holidays.
We’re talking about your lifelong relationship with money here - your future wealth, what you teach the next generation about how to value your community AND yourself…
But your relationship with money is heightened in a big way this time of year - which means it's the best time to dive in and let this be the last year you stress, compare, get hijacked by guilt, or give away your power and earnings just because you haven’t had this conversation or learned easy tools that would relieve you from so much uncertainty.
Join this workshop because you deserve 90 minutes to unscramble your mind filling your already full plate with stresses, worries, and tasks you may not need to hold anymore.
Release what’s taking you away from what could otherwise be one of the most joyful times of year - and do so alongside other women who make the process fun, easy, and light.
“I have no doubt this work just opened a door to financial success I had not previously considered possible.”
You deserve 90 minutes and all the wealth - to share with others, and to spend on you.
