One of the most common things my clients want to manifest is abundance – whether it’s an abundance of new clients, more aligned friendships, or just more money overall. But as much as manifesting abundance has to do with focusing on what you want, you probably won’t get very far if your underlying limiting beliefs about money are getting in the way.
Today, I’m breaking down five things you can start to do to upgrade your money mindset and attract abundance!
1. Be Open to Receiving Support
On an energetic level, receiving money is a form of receiving support. If there’s anywhere in your life that you block support or push it away, this sends a signal to the universe that you aren’t open to receiving it. It’s not uncommon for our society to view needing help as weak – but grinding our way through life on our own and pushing away what is offered to us does not make us an energetic match for money to easily flow in!
Take a look at all areas of your life and ask yourself, “Am I too afraid to ask for help? Do I accept help when it’s offered?” One powerful way to open yourself up to receiving more is by practicing accepting support from others, even in the smallest ways! Next time someone offers to carry your groceries for you, cook you a nice meal, or lend you a shoulder to cry on, challenge yourself to accept their support. The more comfortable we become with receiving, the more available we make ourselves to receiving all of the abundance the universe has to offer us.
2. Identify the Root of Your Limiting Beliefs
So much of our money mindset becomes ingrained in us during childhood. Whether you grew up in a household where money always felt scarce or you were taught that you had to grind and give up your freedom to successfully make a living, these stories can turn into subconscious beliefs that influence our sense of identity and how we show up in the world. Ask yourself, “What behaviors did my parents exhibit around money growing up? Do I identify with my socioeconomic status / do I feel stuck there?” When we start to uncover the limiting beliefs that are holding us back, we can assess whether they are truly valid, and we can start to shift the narrative.
3. Explore Your Self-Worth
You might be asking the universe for more money, but do you truly believe you are deserving of it? One of the most common themes I see among my clients who feel blocked from calling in more abundance is low self-worth. You might experience a lack of self-love or worthiness as a result of past toxic relationships, parents telling you that you were never good enough, or from comparing yourself to others and feeling like you’ll never be as “good” as them.
Once we identify the reasons why we feel we aren’t worthy of receiving what we want, we can start to do the inner work, healing, and cultivating of deep self-love to be able to vibrate at the frequency of worthiness – and when the universe knows we feel worthy of receiving what we want, it will start to support us in the ways that we want. (In case it wasn’t already clear, you don’t have to do anything to be worthy of receiving what you want – you already are!)
4. Ditch the Lack Mentality & Embody Abundance
Where are you staying in the energy of “I don’t have enough?” Beyond just thinking, “I don’t have enough money for X,” we can also find ourselves stuck in a lack mindset when we think, “I don’t have enough time”, or “I don’t have enough friends.” When we focus our attention on what we feel we lack, we become an energetic match for (you guessed it!) more lack.
Rather than staying stuck in a cycle of fear around not having enough, try to embrace and express gratitude for what you do have. We can experience abundance in all areas of our lives: wealth, friendships, material items, love, health, support. When we start to embody the feeling of abundance and express gratitude for what we already have, we tell the universe we are ready for more and we become magnets for money (and other resources!) to flow our way.

Whether you find yourself caught in a cycle of overthinking throughout the day, or you spend a good chunk of your day astral traveling to different dimensions, odds are you are spending a lot more time in your mind than in your body! Because of this, most of us can benefit from spending extra time anchoring into our bodies and supporting our lower chakras – this is why I’m extremely diligent about getting in my daily grounding practice! If done correctly, grounding can help you balance out your chakras, support your overall energy body, and help you tap into your intuitive gifts.
You might be thinking, “But, if I want to open up more intuitively, why would I spend more time on my lower chakras?” It might seem counterintuitive at first, but the more grounded and energetically balanced your lower chakras are, the more your upper chakras will open up, and the more connected you will be. As much as we like to spend time in our upper chakras tapping in, it’s equally important that we spend time bringing ourselves back down to Earth to achieve balance among all of our energy centers.
Today, I’m covering four simple methods for grounding that you can start to incorporate into your daily practice:
1. Kick Off Your Shoes
Throughout the day, we’re exposed to tons of EMFs and positive ions from technology, which can throw our bodies out of balance on a cellular level. The ground and soil, on the other hand, are packed with negative ions. Spending time outside with your feet in the grass allows you to soak up these negative ions, neutralize free radicals, and balance out your energy body. If you don’t have easy access to a patch of grass outside, you can also buy yourself a grounding mat (I personally love using this one!).
2. Use Grounding Crystals
One of my favorite tools for enhancing my daily grounding practice is crystals! Tiger’s Eye, Shungite, Black Tourmaline, and Hematite are all great for supporting the lower chakras. You can wear these crystals (I like to wear Hematite as a ring!), or have them with you during your daily grounding practice.
3. Eat Grounding Foods
Whenever I find myself feeling “floaty” and ungrounded, I naturally gravitate towards more dense foods. Animal proteins (organic, grass-fed varieties) and root vegetables can be extremely grounding, so try to incorporate more of these into your diet if you feel like you need the extra support!
4. Practice Visualizations
Another easy grounding method you can do from anywhere is visualization. I like to sit in a quiet space, close my eyes, and imagine roots coming out of my feet and anchoring me down through all of the layers of the earth, into the core. You can also visualize heavy, gold chains wrapped around your waist and shoulders pulling you down into the earth.
If you want to maximize the energetic benefits of grounding, I recommend practicing at least one of these methods every single day! I’m excited to see how things shift and your intuition opens up as you start to make it a daily practice.

Are you doing all of the journaling, meditating, and visualizations, but you’re still feeling stuck and unable to manifest what you really want? Even if you’re dedicated to your daily manifestation practice, you might be missing some key mindset shifts that will allow you to call in what you really desire. I see this time and time again with my clients – people know what they want, but they don’t always know how to embody the version of themselves that is truly ready to receive it!
Today, I’m sharing seven traits to embody to manifest what you want (I cover these traits even more in-depth on my podcast episode, Key Traits of a Powerful Manifestor!):
1. Adaptable
Are you hung up on the “how” or “when” of your manifestation? Trying to force what you want to manifest is fighting the natural flow of the universe. When we’re willing to shift and change, we allow any signs and manifestations to come through exactly how they’re meant to – which can often be different than what we expect! Be open and trusting that no matter which direction you’re headed, it’s all still on the path of receiving what you want in divine timing. You don’t have to understand how it will come in in order to receive it – let the universe deliver it to you however it’s meant to be!
2. Playful
Manifesting what you want shouldn’t feel like a chore – it should be fun! Embrace curiosity and follow the clues that the universe drops into your lap. When we have fun and embrace the current moment, we shift into our feminine energy of receiving.. This allows us to observe more signs and become an energetic match for the universe to send more our way. Integrate more play into your life and see what it brings you! Trusting
3. Trusting
When we get caught in the mindset that our manifestation practices are “not working”, we throw ourselves into a fear state – and this blocks us from being able to receive what we want. Be firm in the belief that you know it’s already coming to you, and that it will drop into your life exactly when it’s supposed to. Practice patience and know that any obstacles that pop up are all part of the journey to receiving what you want.
4. Decisive
Trusting your intuition and being decisive are key to signaling to the universe that you know what you want. Indecisiveness usually comes from the fear of deciding incorrectly, which means we’re not allowing ourselves to trust the journey. On the other hand, when you make decisions confidently, you instantaneously shift your frequency to align with what you’re calling in. Embodying decisiveness and trust in your own intuition sends a clear message to the universe that you’re aligned with what you want to call in – which adds even more energy to the timeline of receiving what you want!
5. Authentic
When you truly embody who you want to be and are honest with yourself about what you want, you make yourself an energetic match to receive it – and this sends a strong signal to the universe! When we allow our egos to take over, we tend to call in people and situations who are vibrating at the frequency we’re emitting. By honoring our own needs & wants and refusing to settle, we tell the universe that we know we’re worthy of receiving what we desire. When you show up as the clearest version of you, you send a clear signal to the universe about what to send your way.
6. Expressive
When you allow yourself to actually feel your feelings, not only are you being more authentic with yourself, but you also allow yourself to release any emotional blocks and limiting beliefs that could be getting in the way of becoming a vibrational match for what you want. It’s also important to embody right now whatever it is you want to feel when you receive what it is you’re manifesting. If you can fully embrace the feelings of love, abundance, and gratitude, you’ll instantly raise your vibration and make yourself an energetic match for more. When you feel your feelings, you release any low frequency energies that are still stored in your body, and releasing those allows you to return to your naturally high-vibe state.
7. Abundant
When we try to manifest from a place of desperation, we’re embodying an energy of lack – this is the opposite of what we want to show the universe if we’re trying to call in more! When you allow yourself to feel complete with everything you already have, you raise your vibration and you tell the universe, “I am so grateful for all of my abundance, and I want even more of it!” Spend time each day appreciating what you do have – it can be as simple as a clean pair of clothes or the ability to breathe in fresh air on your walk.
By embodying all of these traits, you’ll raise your vibration, amplify your manifestation practice, and set yourself up to successfully manifest what you want.

With everything going on in the world, it’s more important than ever to protect our energy. Nowadays, we are so attached to other people energetically – through social media, being around others in public, the news, etc. – and it’s important to clear the energies that don’t serve us (we don’t always realize how much they can affect us!). This is especially important if you’re an empath (like me), since we can deeply feel other people’s emotions.
These energetic attachments can show up in a variety of different ways. We can be attached to people, places, or situations (like past events). Some of these cords might serve us, while others might not – so it’s important to tune into how they make you feel. When we cut the cords that are no longer for our highest good, we can feel lighter, clearer, and more in tune with our own emotions. It’s important to remember that cutting cords doesn’t necessarily mean ending a relationship (although it can help you move on from old relationships), but rather releasing responsibility for that person’s energy / emotions.
Because I work with so many different clients and energetic beings, it’s essential for me to clear my energy – that way I can identify what energy is actually mine, and show up fully for others. This is why cord-cutting has become a non-negotiable daily practice of mine!
In addition to using Ahai™ 7D energy healing on myself, here are some of my favorite methods for cutting cords:
1. Call in Archangel Michael.
Archangel Michael is a powerful protector who can help us set boundaries and cut cords that are no longer serving us. He can often show up as the color blue or purple, or as a warm / hot sensation. When you call him in, you can ask him to use his golden sword or shears to remove any cords that are no longer for your highest good. Simply set the intention, get into receiving mode, and notice what comes up for you. You can also visualize the cords being cut in your mind’s eye!
Tip: the number three is extremely powerful, so I recommend repeating this intention three times.
Once you’ve removed any energy that no longer serves you, it’s important to replace it with healing energy. I love to visualize a bright, golden light filling me up and patching up any holes!
2. Take advantage of the healing properties of water.
One of my favorite ways to cut cords is by using water – I do this daily in the shower! Water is such a powerful element that can work for us in so many ways (if you haven’t already watched my YouTube video on this, check it out here).
When I’m in the shower, I simply set the intention for the water to clear away any cords that are not for my highest good, then I imagine them dissolving away and falling off my body. You can also charge a bath with the same intention, and visualize any cut cords flowing away as you drain the tub.
3. Use a selenite wand.
If you tune into your energy body and notice that a certain area feels blocked, an easy way to clear the energy is by using a selenite wand. You can wave the selenite wand over that specific area (or your entire body!), while setting the intention that it’s cutting any cords that are no longer serving you. This is a really simple way to clear your energy if you’re jumping around between different people or settings all day!
4. Do the deeper work.
A lot of my clients come to me asking for help removing certain cords (whether it’s with a parent, and ex, or an old friend), but it’s important to do the emotional work that’s required first, before you can be fully ready to remove the cord. Shadow work, trauma healing, and inner child healing are all methods that can help you dig deeper into the energetic roots of these attachments, so you can learn whatever lessons they are meant to teach you before you are ready to clear them.
If you’ve tried these methods and are still noticing recurring cords that you’re having trouble cutting, don’t be afraid to reach out to your spirit guides and ask for help! They are always here to help and support you.
