Yet, when it comes to money, there are still prevailing challenges and biases that hinder financial growth and independence.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our day began with an enlightening session on \u2018Cultivating a positive money mindset\u2019, led by Sandra Boekhoudt, founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/wealthywisewomen.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wealthywisewomen.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>More than numbers\u2026<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A huge thank you to Sandra, who changed the relationships we <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">all<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> had with money beyond barriers that we didn&#8217;t even know we had! She made everyone realise that achieving future success doesn&#8217;t begin with understanding numbers alone. Instead, it starts by recognising <a href=\"https:\/\/wyseminds.com\/mindset-in-answering-your-purpose\/\">the power of our mindset<\/a> and the need to pivot our beliefs. Beliefs which have been given to us from others; those we both know and society itself and perhaps biases we have subconsciously put upon ourselves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Confidence and clarity<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In just a few hours, amplified confidence, improved motivation and renewed resilience filled the air, as the entrepreneurs had clarity on how to pursue their financial goals. We all left with an abundant new mindset, full of self responsibility to our own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realsimple.com\/work-life\/money\/money-planning\/financial-independence\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">financial independence<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/julie-perkins-wm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wyseminds&#8217; founder<\/a>, I&#8217;m driven to support <a href=\"https:\/\/wyseminds.com\/product\/purpose-led-business-growth-book\/\">purpose-led growth<\/a> in a way that is simpler than many think. At this event, I was reminded of a key ingredient:\u00a0 how simplicity in financial and money management, achieved by identifying and altering certain beliefs, can make the difference between success and stagnation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Mindset matters<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reflecting these learnings,\u00a0 it is clear that\u00a0 certain questions need to be asked earlier in the <a href=\"https:\/\/wyseminds.com\/yourjourney\/\">entrepreneurial journey<\/a>. Every entrepreneur wants success, fuelled by personal purpose and values.\u00a0 But that there is power in ridding yourself of limiting beliefs of financial success. We should all ask ourselves, &#8220;What is my relationship with money?&#8221; and, more importantly, \u201cWhat should my relationship with money and wealth be to support the success I am looking for?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sandra&#8217;s guidance and insights into projections, budgets, and integrating financial figures into our everyday lives, were invaluable. Thanks to newly developed financial relationship statements, our participants will now l proudly incorporate this new money mindset\u00a0 into their lives, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/melissahouston\/2023\/03\/23\/the-power-of-a-positive-money-mindset-in-business-ownership\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">prioritising<\/a> it alongside their purpose.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Being honest &#8211; with yourself<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, I encourage entrepreneurs to be honest with themselves and ask: What shapes my relationship with money?
