Money Magic Podcast

This week on the #MoneyMagic I talk to LiSara (Formerly Lisa Dennen-Young), an anti-racist Leadership and Life coach, musician, and host of Music Medicine Membership. Lisa’s mission is to support the elevation of voices that have been unheard and to support the use of expression as a vehicle of healing, growth, liberation, and collective empowerment.  

 

LiSara was a forensic linguistic interpreter in legal systems, but listening and trusting her own gifts and being willing to shed the identities that held her in linguistic work is what led to her new identity. She started as a love and relation coach and stepped out of smaller boxes to get to where she is today. In this podcast, she explains why stepping into your highest calling and saying yes is allowing yourself to do the things that you never thought you were supposed to do. And this is power! 

 

In the podcast we discuss why when you’re creating, you’re in your place of power, and you’re tapping into universal creation. You’re a manifester, and creating allows you to see how powerful you are, not because you have an expectation but because you’re letting something come out of you. Birthing a new idea on how you are going to meet your money goals and heal ancestral-held trauma is what positions you in power and gives you a new identity.  

 

This is another incredible episode.

This week I talked to Tsitsi Mutiti, an investment manager and a certified financial coach based in the UK. Tsitsi has been in the financial industry for over 13 years since she moved to the UK from Zimbabwe. She started as a secretary and worked her way up to where she is today. Tsitsi got into coaching because she felt there was a gap between high and low niche wealth individuals that she served despite the financial industry having so much to offer. 

 

In this podcast, we chat about how money habits are all about our mindset around money. Trauma makes you forget about your magic and yourself. Understanding your past about money will help you know how you impact your relationship with money. Money is just a tool, you’re in complete control, and you can point it to whatever you want it to achieve.  You can rewrite your money story, become the author of your financial story, don’t let other people write it for you.  

 

Tsitsi shares how she got into massive debt in the UK; creating a lifestyle that the world told her she should have. However, once she focused on spending money in alignment with her values, the money started flowing. This enabled her to consolidate and pay off her debt in one and a half years instead of six years. Tsitsi is debt-free, and she has been helping people get out of debt and expand their money over the years.

This week in the #MoneyMagic I talked to Lesego Lekwakwe, head of customer relations and a hairdresser. To Lesego, hairdressing is both a gift and a business that has given her an edge in life. She started plaiting hair when she was ten years old, and the fire is still on even after acquiring a degree and masters.  

In this podcast Lesego explains that money is not just a mode of exchange, it also carries energy that takes the form of who you are. Your currency is in the emotion. Your trauma and emotions that govern money determine your energy around money. A negative attitude will make money distance itself from you. Just like you, money also wants to be loved and adored to create a positive impact.

Lesego explains how taking the course has allowed her to change her definition of money. At first, she thought she knew everything about money, but she discovered she had trouble with her bank account, spending and pricing her services. The course taught her how to value her gifts and business to connect with clients at her energy level. Lesego has also mastered the habit of paying herself first and spending in alignment with her values.

This week in the #MoneyMagic Podcast, I  talk to Jawana Marshall, a mom, yogi, and the founder of Brown Girl Yoga Tribe. Jawana fell in love with yoga at 18 after her father died. Her first experience was backed by competition and experimenting on how flexible she was. The second time she did it, her purpose was different, and she was very intentional. For her, yoga embodied the person she wanted to be, loving and peaceful.

 

Yoga is not about what you’re doing with your body. It’s about finding your space from the inside. Finding stillness beyond your thoughts, movements, and whatever is happening around you. This is the heart of yoga, and being able to find peace and calmness over and over again is what will help you find your healing.  

  

We usually have different layers of emotional trauma. Everything starts in the casual body, then in the astral body, emotional body, and mental body before manifesting in the physical body.

 

Yoga is a gentle journey, and it will help you peel off the layers and heal. For Jawana, it has given her priceless calm feeling no matter what is happening around her. She was in a mess, but yoga created a space for breakthroughs and to be authentically happy while pushing beyond those boundaries energetically. 

 

This is another incredible episode.

This week in the #MoneyMagic Podcast I talk to Lungile Ngubane, a fitness trainer and accountability partner. Lungi helps women achieve their fitness goals using their feminine cycle. Her mission is to create a safe space for all her clients based on their individual experiences to help them heal their emotional trauma and reach their goals. 

The question, where are you and how are you feeling is not asked enough in the fitness space. This is because we tend to focus on the big numbers and how we can achieve them in a short time which makes training physically and emotionally draining. Different exercises do different work for us, and as women we respond differently to exercise every day. This is why we need to practice self-compassion. In this podcast we talk about giving ourselves five minutes of courage and what that means.

So many of us quit the gym and don’t like exercising because we think it’s difficult. Exercising is not difficult, but it will force you to go into your body and feel the things that are stored there, which can be uncomfortable. Working with our bodies can help us process pain from our trauma, which can help us heal.

Lungi also explains why there’s nothing wrong with getting emotional and that it’s a sign that something happened to you, and what happened to you is key in creating a safe space for healing and exercising.

This is a great episode to help you understand how to do difficult things.

This week I talked to Tabita Ntuli, a social worker and a specialist in community development. Tabita focuses on helping civil societies and communities in South Africa to navigate easy response and change. Tabita is passionate about society’s moral structures, the norms, the culture, and the state of affairs, especially when it comes to young women.

 

Money is power, and it lays the basis for negotiation. Money has the power to take you to places you want to go and become what you want to in life. It can also buy you respect that you have not earned and a seat at a table that you don’t deserve.

  

Doing the #MoneyMagic course has helped Tabita to understand, accept, and fix her impulsive buying habit, which she developed from a young age. The course has also changed her relationship with her money. This has enabled her to discuss financial matters with her family and open up about her expenses. Before the course, she was dishonest, but now she is happy with her wardrobe and at peace with her finances.

This week I talked to Lisa Kuzman, a leadership coach in the business space. Lisa works with coaches to teach them how to be trauma-sensitive. She also offers trauma-sensitive business and leadership coaching to business owners with a history of trauma. Lisa is a trauma survivor and former social worker and she has worked with different administrations which she says are the root of her passion for trauma coaching

When you have a very big emotional reaction to things that are out of context, that is a signal that you're probably experiencing trauma that you’re not aware of. You can’t prevent trauma triggers from occurring and it’s important to be aware and learn how your unique trauma presents and the unique needs you’ve in those moments. You can do some healing and it can shift your response but you’ve to attend to yourself with self-love and kindness in every situation. 

Join the conversation with Lisa as she shares her trauma history, healing journey and how she got into trauma-sensitive coaching space. Healing from trauma was transformational for Lisa, it helped her to shift from not making money, working 60 hours a week, and the fear of raising her rate not to abandon people to making a sustainable living, embodying self-love, self-trust and self-confidence in a balanced way, being transparency about her traumas and attending to her needs with self-compassion.

Last week on the Money Magic Podcast, I did a class on the fear of invoicing people and the fear of asking people to pay us. In this week’s podcast episode I am sharing a live class I did a while back on pricing in the #MoneyMagic student group.

Most times we’re scared to invoice people because we’re scared they won’t pay us because our prices are too high.

In this class I share why this is simple not true and why it’s not about the money.

Pricing is NOT the reason people don't buy; I have had people drop their jaws when they hear my price for my coaching and courses. To them it's too low.

And other people freak out that it's too high.

There’s a market for you, no matter what your pricing looks like. In fact there is a danger in under pricing.

The fear of asking for money is a traumatic response from negative experiences with money. It can affect your behaviours around money, business revenue and your ability to negotiate for money.

Society has told us that it’s wrong to want money, and most of us undercharge our services because we fear being rejected and talking about money, which creates burnout at some point.

Pricing your services right will help you shift how you show up in a whole different way, which mean more to your clients and business. But how can you feel safe and at ease when pricing your products, sending invoices and asking for money, Join the conversation with your host Vangile Makwakwa as she shares a live class “tapping into ancestral money wisdom training” day four training on pricing.

To help you understand how money traumas affect your behaviours around pricing and how you can get over it and heal.

Notable Quotes

Pricing your services right will help you shift how you show for your clients.

The role of the mind is to keep us alive, and if it associates asking for money with danger, it could eventually lead to death.

The more you’re able to sustain yourself in what brings you fulfilment, the more you continue to do it.

Danger equals possible death.

When we force the mind to accept a reality we don’t believe in, it will fight us more.

Only you can know the truth of your situation.
