Stop Falling For These Money Lies

If you've spent any time scrolling through social media lately, you’ve probably seen an avalanche of “money advice” - some of it inspiring, some of it confusing, and a whole lot of it… questionable.

And if you’ve ever read one of those posts and thought, “Wait… something about this doesn’t feel right,” then congratulations, your intuition is right.

In this week’s episode I’m burning down (yes, marshmallows are invited) the biggest money myths entrepreneurs keep being fed online. These myths sound polished and empowering on the surface… but underneath? They’re creating shame, confusion, and downright bad decision-making for business owners who deserve better.

This blog post shows you each myth — but trust me, the full episode goes deeper, with stories, nuance, and the honest, no-fluff truth you know I bring. Make sure you listen after reading.

Myth #1: “Charge Your Worth”

This phrase needs to be launched directly into the sun.

Myth #2: “Make Six Figures in Six Months”

These promises come with fine print they conveniently leave out.

Myth #3: “Passive Income Will Set You Free”

Ah yes — the dream of sipping something fruity on a beach while your bank account fills itself.

Myth #4: “Mindset Is All You Need”

Listen, I love mindset work. But journaling bigger numbers doesn’t magically fix sloppy cash flow.

Myth #5: “You Need a Huge Audience to Make Real Money”

This one hurts people the most.

The Real Truth?

Social media is incredible for inspiration, but it’s not your CFO.

Run your business with clarity, not comparison.
Look at the whole picture, not just the highlight reels.
And stop stacking shame on top of strategy.

If this episode made you realize you’ve been building your business off someone else’s curated feed, let’s fix that together. (It’s always more fun hen tryin to do it all alone)

Send me a message with the myth that hit you hardest and I’ll point you in the right direction. Or book a strategy session and we’ll dig in immediately.


Don’t forget …

Your business gets simpler the moment your money starts making sense.
