Once I flipped the interpretation of where I was at in my life, when I was like, oh, I don't need to be rich in order to have a good time.

I can do free things and create cool moments in my life.

Now, it didn't mean I wanted to stay poor.

I didn't want to stay broke, but I definitely- Yeah, it's not a virtue to say, I'm going to stay broke forever.

No, no, I didn't want that.

I was also scared because I didn't know how to make money and I didn't understand money.

I didn't have the knowledge or the emotional intelligence around money.

So I was scared of money.

So it took me some time to like really start researching and having a language around money and having conversations around it and asking questions around it.

to where it felt more accessible for me to earn.

I had to learn how to develop internal value and self-worth so that I could receive money.

And I think that was a process for me.

But I'll tell you what, having money and earning money has created more value and confidence in me to enjoy life.

But I think...

I don't think I would have been fulfilled had I not learned how to also create inner peace in the journey.

Because there's a lot of people who have a lot of money who are stressed out and overwhelmed all day.

And the poor person saying, well, I'd rather have that rich guy's life or gal's life and be stressed than be poor and stressed.

There's an argument for that.

But there's also an immense pressure and immense that I've seen wealthy people who are internally sick have, where they commit horrible actions in life.

They do really bad things with the money.
