Every person has a Money Story - your attitude towards money brought on mostly by childhood experiences. Those beliefs about money show up in your everyday decision-making around money.” “When we can step back and get outside of those beliefs, and look at them, then we can break through them. Then we can bring in other information and make more powerful, more complete decisions.” “The universe is unlimited and has everything we need. And so if we tap into that feeling of abundance and that, that you're safe, you're secure, you're cared for and the money will show up, then you can go out and raise it because you know that it's abundant. There's no ceiling.” - Maryanne Dersch Ask for and receive all you want need and deserve without feeling rejected, ineffective, or pushy.
