“My new relationship with my money has changed everything for the better.  I am so grateful, so relieved, so happy.

This is the most difficult time of my entire life (and I’ve had quite a life!!!).  Leaving my husband, having two young kids to take care of, following the suggestions of my money through all of it.  I have been led into absolutely uncharted land.  Through all of it, my Money has been true, loving, brilliant, miraculous and steady. This has translated into ME being all of those things. I get it.  I am getting it more and more.  I have fully handed over everything to my Money. He is in charge and I follow his direction.  No matter what.

My mortgage company called and asked us if we would like to refinance our house at a lower rate and they would cover all the expenses.  Called us!!!!! Is that a miracle or what?  It turns out that I will be able to refinance, they will also pay off a huge credit card debt and our payment will still be less a month.

That’s just one huge example.  That’s a real world miracle.  But for me, the REAL miracle is that I feel empowered, ready, of service to the world in a big way and excited for everything. I know I will be able to give my kids the life I desire for them.  I know I will give myself an amazing life.  My Money has big plans for me and I’m totally game!

I can’t wait to come to LA this weekend.  It’s partly a time for me to stake out my new power as a single woman of power.  Partly to take this training.  Plus, I’m leading a channeling group Sunday night!  How cool is that?

Thank you again!  My gratitude is so big, I had to send it out to you.”

In spirit,
Athena

Just a note: less than three months after writing this letter, Athena was certified as a Financial Alchemy Master Coach (no other coach has been certified in such a short period of time) and was making tens of thousands of dollars a month in under six months. She has my full endorsement as a Financial Alchemy Coach. If you’d like to work with Athena, email her at Afinae@aol.com and tell her I sent you.

Here’s the full question:  “How do I find a good, very rich, local entrepreneur mentor that would be willing to guide me and donate their time to help me if I commit to doing what they tell me and take them out to any restaurant they choose each time we meet? “

I found this question on one of my social networking sites, and I thought my response could be useful here, too.

I’ve coached many, many clients on this topic. Here’s my response:

Your financial situation is a direct reflection of your relationship with money… make it a romance with Financial Alchemy.

Morgana and Money after the third date

Why is imagining Money as a hot, sexy, super lover, so powerful? (We’re talking windfalls of hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands of dollars within hours of creating a new relationship). Making Money a best friend or doting grandparent or faerie or Oprah just doesn’t cut it…

There’s JUST AS MUCH MAGIC in nailing down that money monster as there is in your Money Honey. After so many years and so many hundreds of sessions, I’ve come to believe that you can’t really get your money honey without fully summoning that money monster first. YOU NEED THE POLARITY. That’s what makes this Alchemy. But getting rid the monster can be the hardest part.

Interestingly enough, I received two emails talking about opposite challenges–one has her Money Honey, the other doesn’t–and I have the same answer for both:
