Day 29/75

For day 29/75 I’m going to share a story. I used to roll my eyes at money affirmations.

Like, how is saying “I’m abundant” supposed to fix decades of financial stress and anxiety?

But here’s what I’ve learned as a psychological scientist (and a regular person who grew up without much):

The stories we tell ourselves about money shape how we feel, and those feelings shape what we do next.

When you quietly think “I’m bad with money” or “I’ll never have enough,” your nervous system hears it.

And it responds with anxiety, avoidance, impulsive spending… whatever it takes to soothe the discomfort.

So now? I use affirmations to write a new script. One that feels true and hopeful. One that helps me act in alignment with the life I’m building.

Here are 5 that I come back to when I need a reset.

💡SAVE them for the hard days. Or the quiet ones when you just want to feel proud of how far you’ve come.
