4 Reminders For When Your Money Unravels

There are so many lessons we can learn about our money in the everyday. And today, I want to talk about something that seems to be happening to me and around me - unraveling. 

Can you relate to those moments when you feel like your life is unraveling? 

It’s not an instant combustion. It’s the slow thread pull. The thing you don’t notice until the entire end is frayed and you feel...undone! 

I’ve been in this space.  In fact, I’ve been in a complete re-discovery of myself. I’ll be sharing more of that journey soon, but today...this one is on my mind. 

Let’s imagine a rope. 

• Strong

• It has its shit together 

• It is useful

• It does its thing

• Different knots but same results...secure

Now let’s imagine that rope when it is frayed. 

• It can’t hold what it used to

• It’s softer

• It’s not so tight, in fact it’s free flowing

• It can do things, but they are entirely different than before

That’s what life transformation feels like. At least to me. And here’s the magic…

That frayed rope...she’s something else. You can actually see all of the layers that create her strength and you can appreciate her strength EVEN WHEN she isn’t holding it all together. She’s still capable of so many things, and in this new state - it’s time for her to rediscover what those are. 

Where are you unraveling?

Remember when your money is unraveling: 

• There are layers in there you need to see

• You can create security, it just might need to look different

• Be soft in your approach. Rigid timelines and budgets are too restrictive

• You don’t have to always have your shit together. In fact...you won’t. Release. 

There is beauty in the unraveling.
