   275: You Know Your Money Pattern and It Still Runs the Show

   If you’ve ever thought, “Why the heck am I doing this again?” this episode is for you. Most of us have a money pattern we can see clearly, and it still shows up. That’s frustrating, and it isn’t a sign you’re doing something wrong. So many money triggers show up because we’ve entangled our personal power and our worth with money itself. In this episode, Aimee unpacks where money triggers come from and why the same circumstances can land as a gift for one person and feel crippling for another. She doesn’t minimize what anyone has been through. She looks at the interpretation, the story attached to the facts, because that’s where your power comes back. You’ll hear why awareness alone can leave you stuck and frustrated, and why the goal was never to be triggered ever again. Growth is a spiral staircase. You meet the same core wound from a higher step, and recognizing it is what keeps it from stopping you. Aimee also shares how she catches her own inner critic, so you can see what this looks like in real life. You’ll leave knowing that having a money pattern is human. You’ll also have a clear next step for finding out which of the four core patterns is yours and how to start shifting it.

   274: Your Numbers Don't Mean Anything About You

   Two plus two equals four. That part of money is logical. The part that causes the trouble is the meaning we attach to the answer. In this episode, Aimee goes looking for where that meaning came from. For many of us, it started with a story we absorbed from a parent or another influential figure: money and an unhappy home, or “at least we have each other” and a belief that having money means losing something that matters more. The details don’t change the result. The story you took on becomes the lens, and your numbers get read as proof that you’re failing, disappointing someone, or becoming someone you don’t want to be. Aimee shares her own story, where love, safety, and being needed became tied to success, and the question underneath every number was “have I done enough to be loved?” She also talks about fear of success, the sabotage that shows up right before a revenue goal, and why “I’m not a numbers person” is so often code for “I don’t want to look.” You’ll hear why the fear is real even when the threat is not, why this is trainable rather than a willpower problem, and why getting support with your books never means you stop looking at them. A CEO stays involved. The first step is uncovering the pattern running the show, and Aimee points you to two free places to start. Whether you’re carrying money shame, dodging your numbers, or wondering why money feels so loaded, this episode offers a calmer way to see it.

   273: You're a Match for More When You Stop Waiting for the Big Moments

   If you've ever noticed that you can find gratitude when you look for it, and find lack just as easily when you look for that, this episode explains why. Aimee walks through how your brain filters what you notice, and what that means for the money already coming into your business. Money is an energetic exchange. When a small sale lands and the response is "it's not enough," the moment gets bypassed and the goal moves on. This conversation looks at what changes when you anchor into those payments instead, including the ones that used to feel like a prayer answered and have quietly become normal. You'll also hear why the small highs matter as much as the big ones, how hindsight shows you what a hard decision was giving you, and why gratitude only works when it comes from a real place. It's an invitation to try it on for 30 days with no attachment to the outcome and see what you notice.
