video1138675692: Welcome back to Alive and Thriving, Clare. Now I'm saying welcome back for everyone listening because Clare and I tried this last week and the internet gods were not on our side.
And so Clare said, you know what, this is a sign we're not meant to record today. And she was so spot on. So here we are. Take two. Welcome to Alive and Thriving, Clare. It's so wonderful to be here. Thank you for having me. Oh, you're welcome. I at the end [00:06:00] of, oh, it might've been the episode before last, I shared a little bit of an insight about you coming onto the podcast.
I said, keep an eye out for this episode. I'm going to share a little bit of a personal experience that I've had with Clare and I started to touch on this last week, but Clare has no idea the impact that she has made on my life in such a brief encounter. Professionally, I've introduced Clare's bio that she was an accountant.
Now she's an amazing money mentor. What I want to tell you is that I met Clare in March last year. I was at a retreat, the mastermind that I'm in. And boy, did I have some money issues then. And I knew it. Money was so scary to me that you don't know this about me, Clare. I wasn't even looking at my finances.
I was so Adamant and boy, I felt called out when you spoke about that. And I was so adamant that I just wasn't doing well, that I wasn't even looking at them. I [00:07:00] wasn't reconciling my accounts. I was not looking at my profit loss. I was, just completely avoiding it. I carried all of this money, shame and money trauma, partly from my beliefs, partly because I grew up just, we were just always getting by.
That whole receiving, but also holding was an issue for me. Spending's never been an issue for me. I can tell you that but, I also had a business in 2013 that I've shared about on this podcast that In my eyes at that point in time failed, I had a 40, 000 loss in my second year. I was 25, I was pregnant with my first child and my family had to bail me out of that.
And that to me was like radio shut down. I couldn't even look at that event without feeling sick to my stomach until a couple of years ago. Until last year actually, to be truthful. So I had this, what do we have, like two hours with Clare as a group and I'm like getting all these truth [00:08:00] bombs in my face around oh my god, all these things that I had been completely avoiding around money.
But Clare made it feel so safe. And so fun. Anyway, so what happened after you left Clare, and also we had a personal conversation that really impacted me too, because I was stuck in this mindset that was like, partner tops up my business and he's paid for me to get here so far and you were like, it's an energetic exchange.
What are you doing at home? And I was like, Oh, okay, I get it now. It changed my life. After you left, what happened was I actually opened up to Tracy, my mentor, about this perceived failure. And then I did some EFT work on what I had stored in my body around the shame, because I literally contracted every time I even thought about it.
And then I freed it. And then I started to work on other money mindset beliefs. And I started to look at my account. I, got, we, we were gifted your book. [00:09:00] I read it then, but I wasn't ready to read it then. So I reread it in January and so much landed, I promise you're going to get to speak soon. What happened then was I started looking at my business accounts and I actually realized that every quarter I had doubled my profit.
No I wasn't making profit then, but my, like by my revenue, I doubled it every quarter and for a brand new business, I was like, that is amazing. And I've been avoiding it. Because I had just this story in my head that I was already failing that because I wasn't making enough or because I was still in my startup earlier phases.
So everything has shifted on his head since then. So that is my really long winded way of saying thank you. And you have no idea what presence, what impact, sorry, just your presence in that 2 hours. Has made for me. Oh, that is such a beautiful thing to open our episode with. Thank you so much for sharing.
And I just want [00:10:00] to honor your vulnerability as well in sharing that with your audience. Because I think a lot of the time people aren't having conversations around money and we feel scared and uncomfortable and alone when it's happening to us. So I just really want to acknowledge and honor that because that takes a lot of courage to share that.
And. The cool thing is, which we're going to talk about today, is that your relationship, your story with money can change at any time and you are living, breathing proof of that. So thank you for sharing. Oh, thank you for the impact. Like really, truly thank you. Clare, tell us, you were an accountant and I've heard you say I was the fun kind of accountant.
Now, I've got to be honest, my accountant scared the shit out of me. I get so nervous at tax time at the thought of, I hope she doesn't listen to this, I get so nervous at tax time at the thought of having to go in and because we've got another company as well. So it's my business and it's my partner's company too.
And I just, I don't know why it scares me. She scares me. So can you tell us like, what is a fun account? [00:11:00] Look, I might backtrack to way back when, and this might help everyone to understand a little bit more about how I've ended up here. So I left university. I was a straight A student, great at maths, and my dad had studied accounting.
And I decided that accounting was the key to having a successful career, whatever that means. So I went and studied accounting and introduction to accounting, my first subject that I did in this field, I failed it. Now, I was, like I said, a straight A student when I graduated high school, I'd never failed anything ever in my life, and I was great at maths, how on earth did I fail this subject?
And the reason isn't because I'm bad at accounting, because obviously I've now gone on, I've done two degrees, I've done my postgraduate qualification, I'm a CPA, so it wasn't that I was bad at accounting, it was that, My lecturer was explaining things in his gobbledygook, confusing, [00:12:00] overwhelming, I had no idea what he was talking about.
And I'm a smart girl. And what I've since come to realize is that a lot of people in the accounting profession just use big overwhelming terms and that's, it didn't resonate for me. I got really overwhelmed by it. And. The irony is now years and years later, this has become my strength. My, my weakness at the time has become my strength because I was so overwhelmed by this gobbledygook accounting talk that now I really make an effort to explain things to people in really clear, easy to understand.
English and people who come through my course always say that to me, they say, Oh my goodness, I now actually understand what my accountant is saying. And they also have removed a lot of the shame around it because again, someone like me, a couple of uni degrees, you might think with my accountant that I have highly [00:13:00] intellectual conversations.
I will sometimes say, what's. IAS again? And I just asked the most basic questions. I have no shame if I've forgotten something or I can't remember or what's the tax rate for that? And I think that's The, what I want to empower in other people is that firstly, when you learn the basics yourself, you aren't sitting there absolutely clueless about what your accountant is talking about.
There's a real lot to be said for understanding the basics of financial literacy and also ask the questions. And if your accountant is mean to you or belittles you, they are not the right fit. If, they, but a lot of the time, you know what, a lot of it's actually in our heads. They don't care. They there's probably silly questions that your clients ask you all the time.
And you're like, there's no such thing as a silly question. If we know that other people who aren't experts in our field don't know as much as we are. [00:14:00] So it's just a lot of our own shame and stories that holds us back from actually asking the question. And I don't need to feel shame asking my accountant questions because I know I understand accounting.
I'm a money expert and I can ask silly questions. And she responds with absolutely no judgment. Look, I think that's the, big thing that I would say is, it's unpicking those money stories that sit behind it and the shame and the fear and all of those things. And that's where the transformation begins.
I love that. That, I'm so happy that you just did the most beautiful segue let's talk about money stories, because I know even I've shared previously in previous episodes, too, as I've started to unravel mine, even just understanding the depth of how Deep in my subconscious they lie and how auto piloted they are.
And I'm still seeing it now, like even with [00:15:00] the work that I've done, and even with the really powerful subconscious tools that I use, there's still new elements and new levels that come up for me. And I feel as I also work with, entrepreneurs now too, there's a lot of really common money stories that I'm hearing.
Do you, could you talk to us, Clare, about what are some of the most common money stories? Cause I feel like some ladies listening, I hear it and you probably hear it all the time too. Oh, I don't know. I think I'm good with money. I don't really have any money, because I think we think, oh, I didn't have any significant money trauma or I wasn't we didn't struggle growing up or nothing really stressful that I remember perceiving happened.
And so we think that maybe we don't actually have any money stories, but I can always guarantee if you're not earning what you want to be earning right now, you do. Of some money stories. What are the common ones that you hear? And I can assure you, even if you are earning what you want to be earning, that you still have money stories.
100%. [00:16:00] I went on a retreat many years ago before I started my whole self development journey. And someone asked me, what's the big traumas from your life? And I said, I've had no trauma. I swear to God, this is what I said. And she almost Choked. She was laughing that much. The irony is I've actually had some huge big T traumas that I had literally suppressed along with smaller ones.
And it's very much the same with money. It is impossible that you have a perfect relationship with money. You can be on a journey of healing, which is where it sounds like you and I are both at. I've still got money stuff that comes up for me all the time. So I've got. Multimultimillionaire friends who have money stuff, they share things.
Sometimes I'm like there's a bit of a limiting belief or a money block or a story. So we all have these things, but there's 3 main categories that I say that money blocks money [00:17:00] stories fall into the 1st 1 being a block in receiving and what I mean by that is a block in actually allowing money to come into your world.
And it can show up in the way of you self sabotage your success. You don't show up in your social media. You go, Oh, I was too afraid to ask for money. Maybe you get really embarrassed telling people your prices or about your product or service. Maybe you're undercharging, over delivering, maybe you are giving things away for free.
I can see Jessica laughing as we're recording this. You probably can't, you probably can't see, but she's, this is obviously I used to charge 50 an hour and that's why I'm, I am laughing and it's yeah, I used to charge 50 an hour and I would still let people negotiate me down because that was a really big block for me.
And I say this with so much love, I've watched that was how business was done. You just did what it took to get the [00:18:00] work. You did what it took for them to give you the job and you did what it took to keep people happy. And while that has some positive in terms of building a reputable business where people come back to, it was doing me no favors.
And particularly in that loss. And I'm so sorry to interrupt there, but it was like, the loss that I shared. One of the reasons why was because I had people come and they'd say things like, I we're a not for profit, so can we have a discounted rate? Now, I'm still paying the suppliers. It was an event. So I'm still paying the suppliers for the physical booth.
That cost me a certain amount of money. Oh, okay. You can't afford chairs and tables. Oh yeah. We could throw those in. They were costing me money. I had to pay per chair, per table, per booth, per sign per everything. In a space that costs a hundred thousand dollars to put an event on. And I was like, Oh, sure.
Yeah. Okay. Oh yeah. I just wanted the numbers. I just want people here. So yeah. Amazing. Like I couldn't receive, I had so [00:19:00] much shame around asking and receiving for money. So that's why I was giggling because I come from the place where it was like, yep, I charge 50 a set. Oh, you can't afford. Okay.
Maybe we can make some kind of payment plan. Like my first course, Clare, I launched was 79 and I offered a payment plan. Yeah. Way full. And we've all been there. I remember I had a big, almost slap in the face around my receiving when a business friend of mine at the time, I was doing a three hour coaching session for 500 and she said to me, if I didn't know how good you were.
At what you do, she said, I would think that you were terrible because that is so cheap for a business mentor. And the fact that a friend of mine would say that to me, I went, whoa, okay, this is definitely time that I have to. Revisit my pricing. And again at that point in time, to be clear, I was a couple of years into my business.
It wasn't, I wasn't starting out [00:20:00] there. Yeah. But it just goes to show that some people spend their whole business lives like that. Have you ever, I've had the experience of people that I've worked with sometimes and they, never put their prices up. They, over deliver are available 24 7 and other people have really strict boundaries around their times, their inclusions, all of those things.
So that might be showing up for you a block in receiving the next one is a block in holding. And again, 100 percent putting my hand up, something I've struggled with. A block in holding is where you struggle to actually save money. You are you might have a whole range of things around money, but maybe you have shame around having savings.
Maybe you have shame around Receiving money. And so when you actually get money and you go, Oh my gosh, I'll spend that straight away. Maybe you're so scared that it will all go away again. I know this came up for me [00:21:00] that I'd be like, if I don't pay that bill straight away, I'm probably not going to have the money in a week or a month's time.
So I'm just going to pay it straight away, even though it's not due yet. And then that way the money's out of my account. I know that all my bills are taken care of. And so a block in holding basically looks like you don't have any savings. You. Anytime money comes in, you almost get rid of it as quickly as it comes in.
I have definitely experienced a block in holding a hundred percent. And that was something that I never really thought that I had a block in until I heard you speak last year. And it was this realization for me that for me, it was like, when it would come in, I didn't quite have the mindset of, Oh, I better pay that bill straight away.
But it was just this fear of, okay, when is it going to next come in, but then also going deeper down into my my stories. When I realized that for me, I had this story of always just getting by. And even when I'd be asking for [00:22:00] universal help, we're manifesting what we want. And I'm journaling out my gratitude of thank you so much for just having enough.
Thank you so much for having what we need. And I realized that even at a subconscious and energetic level, I was putting out to the world that I was only ever just going to get by and that's all I experienced. And so holding money for me, that was unheard of. I didn't save, it just comes in and it goes.
And I didn't realize at that point that's because my nervous system did not feel safe in actually holding onto any kind of money because it was unfamiliar for it. I love that. And maybe you're listening, you think, okay. I've got a thousand dollars or everyone will have what I call an energetic minimum.
They'll have an amount and they like, like I had a client of mine and she would never have under 10, 000 and she'd have it there. And I'd say, what about that money? Is that my, and she goes, I would never ever go under 10, 000 [00:23:00] and everyone's got a number. And what I want you to just explore is what does it look like to go Over that and above that just out of curiosity.
And when I first started my journey, when I realized I had this block in holding for me, it was just transferring 10 a week that I never, ever touched and saying, It's safe for me to actually put money aside and just to leave it there to grow. So that is the second kind of money story or money block. Are we ready to go on to the third?
Was there anything deeper you wanted to dive into on that? Oh, I don't know. As you were speaking, I was just thinking about then going into the opposite situation of when we did actually start to make money. And then we're in a position that some people around us weren't in as well. And there's a whole nother range of emotion to deal with there too.
There's all these other stories and then these things that were coming into my mind of fear of how I was then perceived. Being in a different position and being in a different position to some people around me as [00:24:00] well. And that, I think I just wanted to acknowledge that's the other tip of the scale, right?
That you think that you're just dealing with these money stories and you don't have enough, but then you get into this opposite space where maybe business is doing really well and you are fruitful with what you have, or you don't have to count your pennies or whatever you, whatever your opposite experience is.
But then there's almost this guilt. And this Oh, I don't really want them to know that we're doing well. So there's all of that too, that just, I never imagined having to ever deal with until, you're dealing with it a hundred percent. And I found too, that as you are changing, you are dealing with everyone else's money, traumas and blocks and stories as well.
For us, when we got out, BMW. My dad made a comment about the elite with their BMWs. I've lost friends over the years. When we moved to our waterfront [00:25:00] home, some of my closest friends who I am such a friendship person. I pour so much into the people I care about and they just bit by bit started stepping away from our friendship.
And at the time it really hurt. But the reality is like. I'm on a journey and the people who are there for me at the next level are going to be cheering me on celebrating my success, my growth, not wanting to hold me back, not judging me for it. And so unfortunately, some people, your relationships are either going to change with them or they might even dissolve.
And I guess that's where you get to explore what does You know what are your big desires? And, like I said, something that I realized on that journey was that the people who I've still got friends from primary school, from childhood, there are some people who are celebrating my success.
Every step of the way and just cheering [00:26:00] me on. And then if there are other people who aren't unfortunately they're not, I want people who hold a vision for my life. Like I do. I know that I do for other people. I want my friends to have all the success, love, happiness, wealth in the world.
I find it so inspiring. And I, yeah, and it is going to change your relationships with some people. And I guess that's something that's important to acknowledge and recognize as well. A hundred percent. And not just even in, not just in money growth, but in all healing. And I hear this so often in my containers.
I think I did an episode on it a few weeks ago. I don't remember when, I've definitely talked about it. But it's these, it's almost like these ascension symptoms and you start to notice that maybe friendships are dropping off or people come into a healing space. A lot of the ladies that I work with, they've been in either a long term chronic state of fight or flight, long term depression.
trauma suppression within their [00:27:00] body beliefs and blocks that are just keeping them from feeling the way they want us to feel. And when we start to dive into that and we start to heal and we start to release and we start to shift beliefs that are going to actually serve them for where they want to go now, what we start to notice is there's this whole new level of people then experiencing relationship tensions, friendship changes, and they start to feel really alone.
Because when we grow, We do it generally from what we always do from a place of choice. We can't force somebody into any kind of healing in any kind of mindset. And so when we then might choose to, heal, and we choose to step into this next level of ourselves and we start ascending. That can be really triggering for a lot of people around you and really challenging because they've been thrown onto this pathway with you and they didn't choose it.
And so a lot of people will drop off because they as a, soul and in their life's journey, they're just not ready for that level of healing. And [00:28:00] and that is as you do, as you increase your, money mindset, and you start to believe how abundant things can truly be and how limitless things truly can be and how everything is really just a big energetic exchange.
And the law of oneness, money is a part of you, right? Like, When you deeply start to feel that, and then you sit in conversations with people who are like, oh, this bill and this and that, and oh, it's going to cost 50 to go there. And you feel like so uncomfortable and so sad for them as well at the same time, but then they, they feel triggered by the fact that you don't seem to agree anymore.
And so you're right, Clare, like in, in all aspects of growth, money as well, as we start to heal and we start to grow and we start to think differently and choose a different life for ourselves. People do not always grow with us. And that's when you get to decide, like you said, what's important to me, where am I going?
This is your life and your life's journey. And [00:29:00] sometimes we have to shed relationships. In order to actually make energetic space for that next. Yeah. And I think that people, yeah, people are either going to be inspired and be excited and empowered for your change, but there's the same misery loves company, and I think a lot of times what can happen is take the example of losing weight or someone getting sober or something like that.
If your. Not feeling great about yourself and someone around you suddenly losing weight and they're making choices. So maybe you all go out for ice cream and they say, I might just have a small scoop or I won't have any. Thank you. It's really easy to want to keep them in the same space as you. If you're used to sitting down with someone and bitching all the time about people, and then they're not interested in having those negative conversations anymore.
You can either be inspired by it and say, Oh, I don't know. Actually, I love that they're not it's [00:30:00] fantastic to see them on a health journey. Maybe you're not there yet, but I'm really, happy for them. Or maybe it inspires you to start that journey or alternatively, if it's too much, people just distance themselves and say, you've changed.
And the reality is, if you were changing for the better, people should be, Your true friends should be excited and happy for you and celebrating you. And yeah, it's definitely, you'll find as you grow, as you earn more money, even if you're not earning more money, even just as you're healing your relationship with money and you don't want to bitch about it all the time.
And you don't want to complain about the economy. People don't want to hear it. They want to, if someone's in a miserable place with money, they want to hear negative things about money as well. So you will notice that your relationships change. And and I like the word change because some people are lifetime people and they will be there and be hearing with the curiosity and being inspired [00:31:00] and perhaps be open to grow or saying, Hey, that's not aligned for me, but I'm really excited and happy for you.
And other people will just be not, no longer a fit. In in the next chapter season of your life. So really great conversation to be having. Absolutely. And I just want to remind anybody who is going through this at home as well. And something that I'm sure you've probably heard a lot with your clients.
I can only imagine, particularly when it comes to business success is if they come from a family who has not. Maybe whose parents struggled, or maybe they had a business, but they had to work 24 hours to keep it successful for you to then have success and, to out earn your family or to do actually yet to have this, different money experience.
I have a lot of people feel like they're not even going to belong like. Is my family still going to accept me if I am actually making this money when they've always struggled? [00:32:00] And so there's yeah, there's so many different layers, but just for anybody listening quickly, if you are experiencing those ascension symptoms right now, where relationships are shifting.
Because of whatever change you are implementing in your mind and your body. And at all of those levels that we change on what you experience from those people who don't come with you, it's a reflection on their internal beliefs and it's a reflection on their perceptions and their nervous system state.
And it's just not you. And I just really like it and logically, you probably know that, but I really just want to reiterate that it is not you. Yeah. And I think it's also important for us to also have empathy and kindness for others who perhaps haven't had access to the tools or the mentorship or the healing experience that we've had.
Because if you'd have said to me, 10, 15 years ago, Oh, Clare something that I know for me we've bought a waterfront home and I know it triggered a hell of a [00:33:00] lot of people in my world. I'm sure 15 years ago, someone said that to me, it would have triggered the hell out of me as well. It would have made me feel jealous.
It would have made me think, why do they get it? And I don't. So I also think that recognizing that if, suddenly you're on a health journey and people are, Oh, you're getting all fit and healthy, whatever, I was probably there a couple of years earlier myself when I wasn't on that path. So also having empathy and recognizing that there's going to be some people who.
Aren't at the same stage, but are celebrating and excited for you. And I think for me, that's how I'm distinguishing as well. A lot of times I talk about looking at your wealth circle, looking at the people that you're spending time with. And that doesn't mean that I say, what, how much do you earn?
Okay. You're in the friendship circle. You're out for me. It's so much about you're in, you're out. Millionaires are only over here, buddy. Sorry. But in all seriousness, like for me, I would weigh, I am far more [00:34:00] attracted to spirits and people who are, it's where they're going rather than where they're at.
There can be some people who are multi millionaires. Terrible relationship with money, absolutely miserable, no interest in making any more. And then there's other people who are like, you know what? They're still in the, nitty gritty phases in the weeds. But I am like, you have such big goals, such big ambitions and you are healing and you are on the journey and you are inspiring to be around and exciting to be around.
And I think that for me is what it's about. It's about finding people in the world who are interested in growth and development and yeah, wanting to immerse yourself and be in their energy. Oh, I love that. Just as you were talking there before you get onto the third block, I just wanted to share. I have really intentionally had to be stretching myself financially as well, just to find safety in it.
And if you'd asked me a few years ago, Oh, okay. Pay this much for mentoring or [00:35:00] like all the things. Cause I do mastermind, I do private mentoring as well. I've got another amazing container that I'm in. Do I need to be spending that money? I think it's a great investment in my business. So yes, I do need to be spending it.
But I guess my question to myself more so was how do I feel about that? And it's stretchy. So this year when I said to Tracy I'll do private mentoring with you as well as mastermind, I threw up afterwards. Like it was such a big, Jump in terms of a financial investment. She doesn't mind me talking about we've had these conversations like it was such a big jump in terms of my financial investment, but I had to stretch myself because I have been actively picking myself out of the words.
I can't afford this. I can't, and could I afford it? I don't know. Like some months it's still I will find it somewhere. But that's okay because I'm also not letting myself become emotionally attached to that either. So I threw myself into the Bali retreat as well. Big stretch, big like [00:36:00] challenge.
But again, it was also that I could sit in this space and I chose to use EFT to actually find some safety in that discomfort as well. Okay. I would previously have told myself that I can't afford this. And so now I'm actually going to choose to sit in this discomfort and realize that the world is still spinning, even though I have made this commitment, which was really just numbers on a screen, really, if we think about money now it's, not even like a physical cash transaction anymore, they're just numbers and the numbers just change.
And they go up and they go down and they just keep changing and I don't know, that's, I don't even know really where I was going with that, but I feel like even for my kids really intentionally like understanding that their little brains are just being molded now in the form of money and I don't want them to grow up believing that it's limited.
Even if there are times where you have to navigate a budget, it's still how you approach that mentally and how you approach it emotionally and the story and meaning that you attach to it, I [00:37:00] think, is what's going to make or break that. If my kids are asking for something that I don't feel is either within our capacity at that point, or my daughter's can I have for my birthday a real cubby house with a real kitchen with a real lounge room with a real mini fridge full of food with a real kitchen?
And my first response was to think, I'll tell you, we can't afford that. But then I'll think no, hang on. That's not priority for us right now. And there's just little, and it's also a little bit of a ridiculous request, but it's there's these, little changes that I've really had to really intentionally work on.
So instead of saying, I can't afford that, it's okay, actually, I'm going to find safety. In this, because ultimately I'm alive and the world is still spinning. And I truly believe now money will work itself out. I really, truly feel that. And I have so much evidence of that in my life, even though my brain used to tell me otherwise.
And it's just a really beautiful place to be because to [00:38:00] me, that's all about me protecting my inner peace. So if I'm going to sit and I'm going to stress myself over things that are happening in the economy or in around me, if I want to stress about that, my partner, I have a very different view on this.
He's you don't care about them. Yes, I do care. I do. I'm just also choosing to not stress about it. I'm choosing to emotionally detach from it. So that has really helped me in working through my blocks in holding my blocks in receiving. I love that. And I think something that you spoke about there about investments.
One thing that people always ask me is I talk about expansion and that feeling of there's a difference between when you invest in something and it just doesn't feel right. good or it doesn't feel right. And then there's times where you, something excites you and it terrifies you, and it just feels like the next thing to be doing.
And that [00:39:00] is where I say, if it feels a line to lean in, then you'll know the time to lean in. Oh, I love that. You talk about intentional investment in your book as well. Which was just, it was something that I just have to, I just took my earphones out because I just realized this whole time you've been coming out of the computer screen.
Did you want to hook it up? Cause that might cause a bit of an echo. I don't know. Let me see. You're not listening through the Oh, it's okay. I think I don't often use them, but it's just so funny because you weren't even coming out with earphones. My audience is oh, girl, that's a typical Jess thing.
Technology is not my friend. It's okay. We should be, okay. But yeah, I just, if you're wondering why I took my earphones out, it's because you're not even coming through them. Oh my gosh. I figure, oh, yeah. In your book you spoke about intentional investment, and that's something that I think is really important.
Really important because we have these [00:40:00] stories that will invest in something in our business when we have it's those conditions that people put on their happiness, that I'll be happy when I'm, when I weigh this, when I earn this. People do the same with their investing. I'll invest in a mentor when I'm earning this amount of money, I'll invest in this course or learning this skill when I have this amount of money.
And the thing is that when you are really intentional about your investments, and like you said, they are aligned yes, they might be stretchy, but they're aligned. That is actually going to, in my opinion, like that is going to accelerate what you are going to achieve. It's Joining a mastermind in my second year in business when I was charging 50 an hour, and I had the same slap in the face that you did.
She said to me I wouldn't think you're very good at 50. I wouldn't pay 50. What did she say? I don't remember the exact words, but it was something like, I wouldn't work with you because I'd be wondering what's wrong with you. Yeah, at 50 an hour. Okay. I need, I needed that. I'd [00:41:00] never, forgotten that, but at the same time, I also found 20, 000 to invest in a mastermind in that second year.
And so I think, yeah, intentional investment, I guess my message here is just really read Clare's I'm going to hold it up on the screen for our YouTubers again. Really read Clare's book because she talks about profit, intentional profit, and she talks about intentional investment and many other things as well.
But she speaks about in a way that is just really easy to understand. It's just like you're having a beautiful conversation with Clare in this book, and it takes a lot of the fear out of accounting and it takes a lot of the fear out of understanding numbers and investing in your business and.
Many, other things. So I'll tell you, Clare, when I was reading this back in January, like I said, I wasn't ready to read it when he gifted it to us in March, but in January when I [00:42:00] reread it, all of these things sunk in. And then there was this question in there, and I don't remember exactly what it said, but it was like how can I make money?
If you don't have it now, it's just ask that question. Where can it come from? Because I was sitting, I was like, I didn't have extra coming in, but I wanted to invest. In the private mentoring, I was like how can I make this money because there's something that prompted me in your book. And then I was like, oh, this beautiful, like private experience for my I had this upgraded experience that I created.
Come just from that prompt, read the book. Oh, I'm glad it resonated. It's funny. When I got my book, I felt like I'd poured my heart and soul into it and I got my book and it's quite thin. Yeah. And I thought, my gosh, I feel like I've written the Bible here. And, where's all the other pages gone?
But the feedback overwhelmingly that everyone has said to me is, they said, there's no guff. It's exactly how I talk. It's straight to the point. Yeah. It's [00:43:00] very practical. It's at the end of every chapter. There's actions. It's a set. Set your money meeting, go and do these things. Yes. I have a money meeting on the first Tuesday of every month.
Yeah. And most months I stick to it. I'm so happy. Yeah. That makes me so happy. And that's what the book's about. It's about money in a non scary, non intimidating, non overwhelming way. And if you go and do the stuff in the book, you will make more profit. I am so So sure of that. And that little prompt that you shared with people is a great little exercise.
I've actually got my teeth done a couple of years ago, got veneers. And at the time I went and got a quote and I thought, Oh my goodness, that is not in the budget right now. And then I did exactly that. I thought, how can I make this happen? And I said to him, is there any chance you could do a payment plan?
And he said, yes. And then I went, what if I create an offer that looks like, I can't remember, a thousand dollars a month. I sold two of those. Literally DMing a couple of [00:44:00] people, so two spots, 2, 000 a month, payment plan done. And I love that. And do you hear how simple that was for everybody out there waiting to create their complicated sales funnel before they offer anybody a program or something.
Clare just said, I DMed people. And then I covered that payment plan. So I knew a couple of people that I said, if I offer them this, package, I know they'll jump on it in a second. Sure. And I've sent a couple of messages. Hey, this is what it looks like. Is it something you're interested in? I'm not releasing this publicly.
Yup. Yup. And it just goes to show how easy and fun and playful money can be. Can I show you a page? I just randomly opened a page. Yeah. And we were just talking about putting conditions on happiness and conditions on investments and things. And the page I just randomly flipped through in your book says, stop winning yourself.
And it's, I'll be happier when we're just talking about, I love [00:45:00] that. Oh synchronicity. Can I tell you about a sign that I got this morning? I it's totally off topic, but also actually, it was about money. The question that I asked, I saw this real the other day. From someone who said, if you feel like your signs are not specific enough, like you're missing them.
And I've been a little bit in my head lately and coming reminder, keep coming back in my body. And so I feel like I've been missing signs. I've not been aware of them. And. Anyway, last night she said, if you, I started a couple of weeks ago, she said, if you feel like your signs are not specific enough, ask for something really specific, like a monkey.
So last night I was in bed and I said, I was like, okay, if I am on the right pathway, if this is the right decision for me, can you show me a monkey? And then in my head, I was like, this isn't going to happen. Like I'm in Canberra, there's no monkeys. Anyway, this morning I woke up to my four year old. In my ear, over [00:46:00] my shoulder with this toy monkey in my face going, monkey, and I didn't even realize.
I got out of bed, got in the shower and I was like, monkey, oh my god, monkey, so yes the signs, are everywhere at the moment and I love that we just opened that exactly where I was just speaking about. That's crazy, isn't it? I had this same sort of thing. I asked for a. A hot air balloon for a sign and anyway, that day I then opened a magazine and saw a hot air balloon.
And I thought, coincidence, And then I had a guest who was telling me on the podcast that she is obsessed with hot air balloons and that she has one tattooed on her arm and I was like, Oh my gosh, the magazine, I was like, maybe I was like, it's tattooed on her [00:47:00] arm and sometimes we're just missing these signs.
And also sometimes we, sometimes we're like, you need to show me this or I don't believe it's true. And it's we don't also need to be constantly testing the existence of something that we know to be a truth. If money is abundant, then drop a thousand dollars in my bank account, or I don't believe it.
It's that. Deep in your soul, if you really explore, you've had experience again and again, and we don't need to test God or the universe or money also to know that there's an abundant truth there. Yeah. It's just us remembering and aligning with that and stepping back into that truth.
Absolutely. And back into trust, which is the part of what my conversation was last night. When I get really caught up in my head, then I leave my sacral response that I leave that sort of way that I, [00:48:00] navigate naturally, and then I start doubting or questioning or overthinking. And so last night was an exercise of trust for me.
It was this reminder of hang on. You are deeply supported and let's, remind yourself of that. And then I was like, I'm really going to put it to the test though. Where is it going to show me a monkey? I love that. Oh, let's chat about the third blog. Everyone's probably yes, enough with the stories.
I just want to know if I can get rich. So come on. We've actually just been talking about the third money block this whole time. So in another beautiful, alignment. The third block is around investing a fear of investing or being able to spend, of being able to put money back into your business or your life, or yourself in a way to sustain your growth.
As much as people have a fear about saving money, a lot of people have a fear about investing in themselves, investing in their business even [00:49:00] spending money on themself. I know for me. That I still feel a lot of shame and guilt I've got a therapy session tomorrow and I'm like I don't really have the time for that.
Is that the best use of my money at the moment? And really being able to, lean into our ability to invest because in the space of money and money flow, I've worked with people over the years who are like, I can't afford an assistant or I can't afford a basic thing. And then I'm like how much money have you got?
They've got a hundred thousand dollars sitting in their everyday bank account. And I'm like, Whoa, that is so much money. I can't believe that you'd be scared to go and spend a couple of hundred bucks. So everyone's got a different, value set around this. But yeah I, again, Massive block of mine.
When I first got started in business, I'm a qualified accountant. I was, I came from a place of don't spend money save. [00:50:00] I did everything on the smell of an oily rag. And actually I started my business at the same time as Tracy Harris, your mentor. And I remember she had a podcast and she had a big glossy website and she used to go get photo shoots done.
And I think I would not spend money on anything. I built my own website. I didn't have photos and I just started to see her grow and grow because she trusted herself and lent in. And that's when I had the aha, I either need to invest in myself or I'm going to stay stuck. Yeah, absolutely. I, do you know, Clare, when I, we'll go back two years ago, I told the story a couple of times, so apologies if you're listening and you've heard it, but.
I had a story that I couldn't invest in helping my business because I wasn't earning enough money to invest in help. I also had a story that was far too busy and that busyness of all of the admin things that were all my big shoulds that I thought I should be [00:51:00] doing to make my business grow. All of that was actually keeping me from having this energetic space and calendar space available to hold for more clients who would actually pay me to make money.
And so what I realized one day was that I was to get this admin done. My, my youngest, I've been very lucky. I've grown my business with my babies. So the more she could tolerate a daycare, the more I was able to tolerate in my business. And we've grown together and I work part time.
Still, so that I can have that last day before she's in full time care next year. Interesting side thought. Someone said, Oh, so you're going to work full time next year. And I realized I always assumed that I would. But then I thought, why would I do that? I'm surviving off four days a week now, and I'm building my team and no, so then I was like, no, I'm not going to work for a day.
I'm not going to work full time next year. I'm going to stay at four days because I'll have a me day instead of a me and Amelia day. Totally off topic, but anyway, I realized that I was putting Amelia into [00:52:00] a casual day of daycare and because of the income that we had coming in, it was not subsidized.
So I was paying 165 a day just to have her in this one extra day a week. And then one day I realized that I could pay a VA for four hours a week to get that 165. So I got my child back, I got more time with her. And then when my business had more clients, more paid clients, then we went into more daycare.
So I could maximize my time, but my VA, I still have, I'm still working with her now. She's got obviously more roles and more hours and whatnot now, but like she did in those 3 or 4 hours. Oh gosh, like I hate being in Canberra. She did all of these things that were taking me all day.
And she did all of that plus more. And it was just this little money mindset shift where I was like, Oh, you can invest in your [00:53:00] business, but I didn't blink twice about paying for it in daycare. It's amazing. And I know that's we're only talking about 165, but that was a huge block for me, like just different perception.
Yeah, it's crazy, isn't it? Like sometimes the things that we inadvertently value and other things that we're like, why am I not prioritizing that? Absolutely. Oh, two, two, two is angel numbers coming in for us. Noticing the numbers. Can we talk, I really, appreciate you going into depth about all of those different money blocks that you see people have regularly.
I would love to just totally pivot the conversation. This is like the worst segue. Clare, something that you shared on Instagram a couple of weeks ago really, touched my heart. Now, if you don't follow Clare yet, please do because Clare speaks so [00:54:00] just real and raw and honest, not just about money, but about business growth and about mental health and about personal growth.
And Clare shared a real a couple of weeks ago. about her health journey after experiencing a car accident trauma and just the rebuild that has come from that. Now, anyone who listens to, to me regularly knows I had, I hate saying similar experiences because all of our experiences are so different, but I guess in terms of what happened to her.
I had a sort of similar experience. I did not have the mindset to help myself through it back when it happened in 2013. Five years of rehab, my body just still struggles. I still have things come up in my hips and my neck. There's still this reminder that's Hey, this thing happened to you and it was a big deal.
PTSD figures so much struggle. [00:55:00] I just really wanted to say, and I'll let you share as much of the story as you're happy to share. But you just had such a strong message in there about believing in yourself and sticking through the tough times. And I just, I don't even know where I'm going with this, but I just really wanted to have this conversation because no matter what.
Big T or little T trauma you experience in your life or what challenges you are experiencing in your life. It's really easy to be like I've just been knocked down and then we don't get back up. And I just, really wanted to, highlight this and share this story if you're happy to with, my listeners, because what Clare is showing is just so much strength.
So so much strength. Are you happy to share a little bit of that story? Yeah, for sure. Basically, it was a little over two years ago. I was driving on the M1, [00:56:00] which is a freeway here at 110 kilometers an hour, and it all happened in an instant, as these things often do, but essentially I got rear ended by a semi trailer truck, and I pulled the car over, and I was just in total shock.
I got out and was just You know, rang the police rang my husband And the policemen rocked up could not believe that I was alive and So Yeah, and the fact that I wasn't just alive. I walked, I got out of my car. I walked out of my car. Oh my gosh. My car got totaled. My car got written off. But I literally got out and was sitting on the side of the road.
And anyway, my husband came, picked me up, and then on the way home, I was like, I realized this is probably by the time I got home, this is not just a little bump. I am in a really bad way. And progressively over the next few days, my whiplash injury got to the extent of, [00:57:00] basically they said to me, it's as extreme of an injury as you can have without having broken bones.
And again, they were very surprised that had a couple of bulging discs, but no broken bones, no fractures. But the muscular impact was so bad that it got to the point where I couldn't lift my arms and I started losing control of a lot of my function in my hands, which is apparently quite a normal response from a city whiplash injury.
You lose all the, basically the muscle in your body. upper body and it's all connected to your hands. I didn't know them. So I couldn't hold a knife. I kept dropping things. I couldn't understand why my husband had to blow dry my hair for me. I couldn't lift a washing basket of washing. Yeah. And I am So grateful that all of my mindset work had happened before this experience, because I had learned so much about mindset and perception and gratitude and all of the things.[00:58:00]
And also another thing that I am incredibly, grateful for is my financial privilege that I recognize a lot of people don't have. We were able to immerse me in. therapy. So I was doing physio three times, sometimes five times a week. I was working with a therapist right from the start. I did psychotherapy.
This was only two years ago, wasn't it? Two years ago. Yeah. Yeah. So just pointing that out because that's right in the midst of, Clare growing a thriving business as well, going through this personal, physical, mental and emotional challenge. Yeah. But again, I just kept. In all of it what's the positive?
Firstly, I'm alive. Secondly, I can afford physio. Not a lot of people can do this. And let me assure you, I don't know what your experience was, Jessica. Insurance companies, don't even get me started. No, I don't. Can I tell [00:59:00] you a quick story? Yeah, please do. I was in therapy one day, It was maybe we're two years in my insurance claim went for gosh, five years or something.
My lawyers actually were, what do you call it? Pre paying like my lawyers were actually writing me checks. I was 21. I had no money. I I had a full time job. I think I earned about 35, 000 a year. But my lawyer is providing checks so that I could have the physio and the rehab they put this like metal thing on your head to make your neck turn and then they hold it there and they make it stay there.
It was awful. But the insurance company rang. I had a call from my lawyer one day because I was in therapy and I said, I tried to go out with my friends and I hit a brick wall and I went home and I got a call from my lawyer saying and I may want to know how injured you were when you hit the brick wall.
Excuse me? It was a figure of [01:00:00] speech, and they were trying I was rear ended by a DUI in a Nissan Patrol, I was in a Hyundai Git. I was flipped off the road, car rolled, dashboard fell out on top of me, stuck in the car till the police pulled me out the other side because my door was ripped out. I was very injured.
I couldn't walk. I had five years of rehab and the insurance company, sorry, I feel like I should tap now because I'm getting a bit angry, the insurance company, they don't get me stuck, wanted to know, yes, they were trying to turn every, anything and everything around, to, find any way to, not.
Just genuinely compensate you for something that was horrific that impacted my life. That was pre children too. And I know that through my experience having Kalia I nearly ended up in a wheelchair with both babies because of the state of my hips and lower back. That was just lifelong, like just the things that, just the [01:01:00] ripple effect.
Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. I'm sorry to interrupt, but don't get me started on insurance companies. No, don't get me started either. And I think that I think the sad thing is, that I look at the progress that I've been able to make, even the fact that I'm telling this story now and not sobbing. A couple of times he used to tell us, I couldn't even talk about the accident without ending up in tears.
And I genuinely have been able to release so much of this trauma because of all the therapy I've done and releasing it from my subconscious brain. And it makes me so sad how many people I've met 10 years after an accident, who still can't drive a car, who have crippling anxiety. And I'm, I genuinely, I drive on the freeway now.
Drive myself. I was doing that. I think I did the first time just shy of a year after the accident on the exact same highway where I had the accident. And now it's when I'm driving on that road, I'm not even. Like [01:02:00] thinking about it. And that is because of all this work that I've done. But so firstly, my financial privilege, but secondly, also believing in myself to say I have to do, it wasn't an option Oh, I can't really afford.
Obviously we went backwards financially massively through this whole experience. But I was like, there's nothing more important than my health and we have to get me better because if I can't hang out washing. If I can't drive my kids to school, this is going to cost us a hell of a lot more money than getting me better.
So that is why that became also, and I'm very grateful that my husband prioritized that investment financially as well. And again, the mindset I constantly just kept thinking, I'm so grateful. I am so grateful. Any little bit of progress that I would have. I'm so great. I'd be getting a massage. I'm so grateful that we can afford to get a massage.
And to this day, I'll have a time where I'm [01:03:00] hanging, washing out and I'm like, I can lift my hands above my head. I can lift a washing basket. And that is such a big deal, isn't it? To be able to lift your arms above your head. I see. Still, because I last year, my whiplash was flared up. It was only in con like in contact, a very little accident.
Like we were stopped, they ran into the back of us, but with my neck twisted like this, looking out the window, Oh, I grabbed right here straight away and it's 12 months later. And even at the kinesiologist today, I said, I'm picking up some weight. I'm still not lifting anything above my head, which is not there yet, but you celebrate The, like the seemingly small things for me to be exercising with five kilo handweights that is a huge deal because six months ago that would have sent me into a week long vestibular migraine attack just from aggravating that whiplash like, so yay, like you putting the washing out and having that washing basket up above your head is [01:04:00] huge.
Absolutely huge. I love that. I, and I look back at that video the reel that I put together and watch me lifting those one kilo weights. And I remember that after that I was on panadine four, I was back on the couch. I was sobbing again, flared up for days, lifting one kilos. I now lift 10 kilo weights.
And I just, you Yeah. It's not that I'm completely healed. I'm not, I even just sitting here, I've got, I don't know if you can tell, I'm like, I'm, I feel like I'm going to need to get up and stretch out after this session, sitting in a chair for too long, but I'm just really focused in on What can I do?
What can I control? And and I don't want to pretend it was easy because there were so many days of tears and feeling sorry for myself and all of the things, but I do truly believe that, that there's a lot of power in, mindset and I'm, yeah, I'm just beyond, [01:05:00] it's, been such a great thing for me because it's taught me gratitude on a level.
It's taught me the power of healing. It's taught me a lot of empathy for people with chronic pain, because I think I used to just, I'm such a positive person. I used to be like just get off it. Just get over it. And now I'm like, it's not that simple sometimes, so it's taught me so many things as well.
And yeah, I'm here two years later. I know that I've still got work impact to create on this planet and I'm here for all of it. At the end of the summary, looking down, I wasn't being rude or checking a text. I was finding that real because at the end of it, I wanted to remember what you said. You said that your former mentor and friend, Susie Ashworth says faith and action equals miracles.
And I just love that. That's the whole body feels and I read that you are, you said, I am living proof that incredible things can happen. And that is just so, true. Your strength, your vulnerability, [01:06:00] being able to speak about that now, without that. Sobbing like that is a big deal to I remember for me, it took EFT to be able to do that which didn't come into my life until a great deal later.
Couldn't drive past the spot where it happened without always replaying it. I could smell the dirt like the little sounds, all the things, and being able to do that work and know that it happened. But have that emotional detachment from it, being able to talk about it like that is, really big.
And I really want to thank you for sharing that because like you said, the mindset that is here to help you get through it. No, it's not always easy. The fact that you have all of that just is a real testament to how much work you have done and how important that work is with money, but with everything like, Clare, I've loved every minute of this conversation.
I can't believe it's been an hour. I feel like it's gone really quickly, but you need to go and [01:07:00] stretch your neck. And I probably need a wiggle too, actually. Any parting words, as well as please share where we can find you and how we can work with you as well. What capacity you are taking clients at the moment.
We'd love to know that, but just for anybody who is finding that their relationship with money is a struggle. Where, would you start? Where can they start? I think the best thing to do is just educate yourself about money mindset. And that's what I always say is learn what your stories are. So go and yeah, grab my book in my book, I give some journal prompts about what, are my beliefs around money, what, how, what do I think like, where's all these stories come from?
And that's the foundation for the healing. You can't heal a trauma that you don't know you've got or that you aren't aware that you have. Yeah. So they aren't aware because your body knows. If you're thinking no, your body will know something and if you can't get it out of [01:08:00] yourself, then go and work with someone who can get into your subconscious, do some hypnosis.
Your body knows it and they'll find the answer. They'll help you find the answer. A hundred percent. I know that. I know that a hundred percent. Cause that's what I do for a living. Exactly. Exactly. And honestly, like that's how I've healed. Like my neck it's how you heal a lot of traumas is find what the trauma is.
Exactly. Exactly. And it is a slow process. You all know this, Jessica, people don't come in and do one session and walk out. I'm healed. It takes time, but it does work. And yeah, I would say that's the starting point is understand what your money stories are your, beliefs, your fears, your subconscious beliefs.
And then from there you can start the healing journey. Oh, amazing. Thank you so much, Clare. Where, I obviously I'll link, I will link all of your Instagram and everything, but for those who are listening, maybe they're out walking and they're not going to go into the show notes. Can you tell us where can we find you and how can we work with you?
Yeah, [01:09:00] for sure. So my everything, if you Google Clare Wood, C L A R E. There's no I in it, Clare Wood. You'll find my, website's clarewood. com. My Instagram is clare_wood_coach and I work with clients one on one. I do retreats. I've got my courses that I run, but also do VIP days.
We have a really beautiful full day experience. You can get an overnight in a luxurious hotel. There's a whole bunch of different options of how we can work together. And all of that's on my website. I love that. Are your courses, are they live launched and join at certain times or are they, is there anything people can just come and join straight away?
People can jump into my course, the Profit Academy Foundations at any time. That's my course all about business finances. I do also do live rounds of it. So there's also times where I deliver it live and I have Q and A calls as well. And I do have my money mindset course, which is called the Profit Academy Accelerator.[01:10:00]
So it's the foundations and the mindsets, the accelerator, my beautiful book. And the book, which is really easy to access. I think I got mine from Amazon and it was here in three days or something. Oh, Clare, thank you so much for this conversation and for your beautiful energy. I really appreciate it.
You're welcome.
