MAGICAL MONEY HACK 1

My No. 1 Money Hack for ADHD Brains

Ever heard that you'd probably do better if you just used a planner or a budgeting app? Oh please! Impulsivity is what makes us so spontaneous and fun! And what drains our accounts before we remembered to pay rent. Ooops. I'm the (former) Queen of Impulse Shopping, and I've finally figured out a fool proof solution. (Hint: It's not will power or discipline or tough love or a budgeting app). You will learn:

• How to not be broke a week after pay day
• How to hack your brain to love saving more than shopping
• How to quit overspending without deprivation or white-knuckling it

You’ll finish this challenge knowing exactly where your money is disappearing and how to joyfully put it to better use. You'll finally know how to pause and choose what you truly desire long term, and not just what feels good in the moment.

MAGICAL MONEY HACK 2

Take the Unexpected out of Bills

This might sound weird, but unexpected bills are usually not so unexpected. It's just that we forgot to plan for them. In this lesson, you’ll learn:

• How to stop unexpected bills from creeping into your mailbox
• How to plan for bills, savings, and everything else you want to spend money on
• How to put your bills on automate and say bye bye to late fees.

I know what it's like to have the bank email you, text you, and call you leaving messages because your mortgage payment didn't go through. "What do you mean you didn't receive my payment? There must be a problem with the bank. Oh wait. You are the bank."

I've solved this problem through painful lived experience. Did I mention that I already had a bachelors in business and finance at the time? And that my contact at the bank had know my mother for 20+ years? Yay. That's when you feel like a total magical unicorn with money.

The traditional budgeting systems you've tried are just not set up for ADHD-success. They assume that if only you'd know what's "sensible" to do, then you'd follow through on that. I know that's not true, and so do you. When you know better, you do better? Nope. When you FEEL better, you do better. That's why this challenge solves your emotional issues with money as much as the math problem of money. 

You’ll finish this challenge with a super simple and joyful plan that works with your ADHD-brain, not against it. 

MAGICAL MONEY HACK 3

Heal Your Money Trauma

Have you heard the saying that your body and soul remembers what your mind has forgotten? In my experience, your money remembers too. In this lesson, you’ll learn:

• Why you're stuck in patterns you hate, and how to break free
• How to make peace with and heal from your money past
• How to change what is possible for you

You can stick to a diet for the rest of your life without solving your issues with food. You can stick to a budget for the rest of your life without solving your issues with money. When you solve your emotional issues with food, you solve all of your issues with food. When you solve your emotional issues with money, you solve all of your issues with money.

I love math, I even made a song called "Can math solve all of your problems? Yes it can, yes it can, yes it can". But even if you hate math, even if you feel like you just can't deal with numbers, this challenge will work for you.

Managing money is as much about understanding your emotions as it is about understanding math. That's why we magically combine managing emotions with managing math. You will learn how to feel your emotions without reacting to them. You will learn how you can forgive yourself and others for what's happened in the past. And you'll learn how forgiveness is about giving you peace, not about the other person. Because you deserve to feel peace, love, and joy.

When you feel better, you do better. You deserve to feel good enough. You deserve to feel free from other peoples opinions and expectations. You deserve to feel free to go after whatever you desire, and to not be held back by that annoying and painful thought "that just isn't possible for me".

You’ll finish this lesson with acceptance of your past and present, and knowing how to create the future you desire.

MAGICAL MONEY HACK 4

Make More Money

There's a limit to how little you can spend. No matter how frugal you enjoy living, there's a minimum required to sustain existence. You know what there's no limit to? How much money you can make. In this challenge, you’ll learn:

• How your thoughts are creating a glass ceiling for your income, and how to break through it
• How money is actually created, and how you can make more
• How to start your plan to double your income

The ADHD-tax kicks our ass from every angle, not just impulse spending, forgotten bills, and rotting food. We ADHD'ers typically have a harder time in school, not because we're dumb, we're smart asses. It's just that school, like traditional systems for money management are like asking ADHD'ers to thrive on Mars. Even if we do well in school, we often struggle to find jobs, and keep them. Staying in the same job over time can feel like waking up to ground hog day every day. B.O.R.I.N.G!

So maybe you feel that you lack the skills to make good money? Or maybe you just keep getting passed over for that promotion? Or maybe the toll of adulthood with responsibilities at home and at work is just too much and keeps you in an overwhelm burn out cycle.

Whatever your story with making money is, we can heal it. You don't need a fancy degree to make money. You don't need to work many hours, or work yourself to exhaustion.

The money you receive is proportional to the value you put into the world, with a lag + the money you're willing to receive, with a lag. That is not a complicated math equation, it's just really good ADHD news. Because you know what we are absolutely awesome at? Creating value. Being creative and solving problems. That's actually how money is made. There's a ridiculous amount of money in the world, and there's no reason why you shouldn't get more of it. So let's go get you some.

You’ll finish this challenge knowing what's holding you back from earning more, and how to solve it.
