If you're like me, you most definitely find yourself wondering if there is a way to live where survival doesn’t consume every thought? Where life isn’t just an exhausting loop of making enough to exist?
And the honest, frustrating, maddening answer we all feel deep down amidst all this chaos: We don’t fully know yet.
What you’re feeling isn’t just personal—it’s a rupture in the way things are supposed to be. We weren’t meant to spend our days agonizing over money, over how to exist in a world that demands we constantly pay to be here. There’s a reason this nagging feeling won’t let go of you. It’s because something deep in your being knows this isn’t the way life was meant to feel. And even though we don’t yet have a perfect alternative, that doesn’t mean one isn’t possible. One that finally allows us the change to feel organically and completely abundant, prosperous, wealthy, and full of aliveness!
But let's admit that we damn sure don't want the answer to simply boil down to just "find little joys within the suffering."
Rather it’s: What tiny revolutions, what alternate pathways, what quiet refusals can you make that shift the gravity of your life away from pure survival and toward something else?
Maybe that means...
- Finding a way to rely less on money, not by deprivation, but by moving toward models of resource-sharing, communal living, or alternative ways of sustaining yourself.
- Letting go of paths that still hinge on some idea of “earning your ease” and instead asking, What’s the simplest way I could sustain myself that doesn’t drain me?
- Exploring micro-solutions, not as band-aids, but as first steps toward something larger: skill-swapping, co-living, bartering, mutual aid, passive income streams that don’t require soul extraction.
- Asking, If I wasn’t trying to “win” at capitalism or escape it completely, what third option could exist?
I don’t think your soul will let this question rest until you start moving toward something that feels true to what you actually want.
Not just surviving better, but belonging to yourself fully, without the weight of money defining the entire shape of your life.
And that might take time. But the grief from this current reality isn’t meant to be where you stay. It’s just the evidence that you were never meant to live this way.
And lest we not forget this is not frustration only with our love-hate money relationship but a deeper grief—grief for a life that feels like it’s slipping away in the pursuit of survival.
The world, as it’s structured, makes it incredibly difficult to just be.
Even when we strip life down to its simplest form, there are still bills, still expectations, still the relentless weight of needing to produce just to exist.
Your guides, your source, your inner knowing—they’re not here to tell you to simply “be grateful” or to “hustle harder.” They’re sitting with you in this ache, in this question, in this exhaustion. Because this feeling isn’t just personal; it’s collective. And yet, within that, there’s something to hold onto:
You are not meant to be a machine.
You are not here to optimize yourself into peak productivity just to earn the right to rest. Even if this system demands it, your soul does not.
The fact that your mind is consumed with money isn’t just a sign of stress—it’s a symptom of a world that has forced people to commodify their existence.
Where can you untangle yourself from the expectation that your worth is tied to what you produce?
Not everyone is built to be an entrepreneur, and not everyone thrives in the rigidity of a 9-5. That’s okay. But somewhere between those extremes, there is a wayfinding path meant for you. The way forward isn’t necessarily about more money, more hustle, or even more escape—it’s about shifting the relationship you have with survival itself.
Maybe the path isn’t finding a perfect way to make money effortlessly. Maybe it’s about tending to what feels alive in you despite the constraints.
- Where does your energy naturally flow when you’re not forcing it?
- What would feel like living, even if just for an hour?
- What small pockets of liberation can you create within the constraints?
Even in captivity, vines find cracks to grow through. You are growing through this, too. Not just to make more money, but to reclaim the pieces of yourself that belong to you, not to the system.
You are not behind.
You are not failing.
You are remembering.
Scarcity vs. Abundance Mindset: The Roots of Self-Sabotage
Let’s talk about scarcity, shall we? That lovely little gremlin that lives in the back of your mind, whispering, “There’s not enough. You’re not enough.” Ah, yes, the familiar voice of doom and gloom, always ready to tell you how little is available to you—how you must hustle harder, push more, and bend over backward to claim your tiny slice of a pie that’s already been half-eaten. Scarcity doesn’t just live in the world outside of us. Oh no. It’s often alive and well within, manifesting as self-sabotage, anxiety, and the belief that we’re constantly swimming upstream with a brick tied to our leg.
You see, scarcity is a personal identity for many people. And like a really bad haircut that somehow becomes part of your character, we attach to it, wear it like a badge of honor, and operate as if it’s some inherent truth. "I’m a struggler," we think, “That’s just who I am.” But the truth is, this mindset isn’t who you are—it’s just a story you’ve been told, a narrative that modern society has drilled into our heads from day one.
But, spoiler alert: You were not born to be limited. You weren’t created to hustle your way to an artificial version of success while your soul withers. You are nature. And nature? Nature is abundant. But when we allow the pervasive myth of scarcity to run the show, we end up sabotaging ourselves in ways that are far more subtle—and way more damaging—than we even realize.
So, let’s take a step back and really examine the root of self-sabotage. It's like trying to grow a sturdy, flourishing tree, but the roots are rotted. No matter how many positive affirmations you chant or vision boards you make, a tree with rotten roots won’t blossom, let alone bear fruit. It’ll stay stuck in the soil of limitation and fear, forever reaching upward with no real foundation to hold it in place.
And that, my friends, is how scarcity thinking works. It infects the root of your belief system—how you perceive yourself, your worth, and your ability to manifest abundance—and it keeps you from growing into the fullest version of yourself.
What is Scarcity Mindset?
Before we can talk about abundance, let’s break down what scarcity mindset really is. Think of it like the cousin of "lack," except it's way more sinister and comes with a side of guilt, shame, and self-doubt. It’s that sneaky belief that there’s not enough to go around—whether it’s money, time, opportunities, or love. It’s when you’re convinced that if someone else wins, you automatically lose. Scarcity mindset operates from a place of competition and comparison, creating a world where resources are limited, and there’s only one seat at the table.
You’ve heard this voice, right? The one that tells you: “Other people are more talented than you. Who are you to think you can do it? Just look at everyone else, they’re already ahead of you, and you’re still stuck here in this very comfortable rut of mediocrity.” Scarcity loves to throw pity parties for itself and loves to make you believe that you’re running out of time, energy, and resources.
Scarcity tells us that there’s not enough love to go around, that if someone else gets the job, we’re doomed. It keeps us stuck in old patterns, convincing us that we’re somehow “less than” because we’re not where we think we should be. It attaches to our identity and becomes so tightly woven into our self-perception that we start believing it's a part of who we are. We think we have to work harder, strive more, and prove ourselves to earn the right to abundance. Sound familiar?
Scarcity as Self-Sabotage: The Roots of the Problem
Here’s where things get juicy. Scarcity thinking doesn’t just affect your mindset—it actively sabotages your life. It creates a cycle of self-sabotage, making you believe that everything you want is just beyond your reach. And because you’ve been programmed to feel like you’re unworthy or undeserving, you’ll take actions (or lack thereof) that keep you in that loop. Why? Because scarcity says: “Why bother trying if you’re just going to fail? It’s safer to stay small. It’s safer to stay stuck.”
For example, think about money. If you’ve ever had the thought, “I’ll never be rich because it’s too hard” or “Money is the root of all evil,” congratulations! You’ve just invited scarcity to your party. And when you believe money is scarce, you’ll often sabotage your financial goals—either through procrastination, overindulgence, or self-destructive behaviors like spending to fill an emotional void. All because, deep down, you don’t believe you’re worthy of wealth or abundance.
Same goes for love and relationships. Scarcity thinking often manifests as believing that love is “hard to find” or that “all the good ones are taken.” When you’re stuck in this mindset, you may inadvertently sabotage healthy relationships or stay in toxic ones, simply because you’ve internalized the belief that there’s “not enough” love out there for you. You’re stuck in a loop of self-fulfilling prophecies because, well, you’re working with the wrong energy.
But, as with all forms of self-sabotage, the first step is realizing that you’re not stuck in a prison of scarcity—you're just operating from an outdated belief system that doesn't serve you.
What is an Abundance Mindset?
So, what’s the antidote to scarcity? Well, it’s none other than the elusive abundance mindset. Abundance mindset is all about believing that there’s more than enough—more than enough money, love, opportunities, and time for everyone. It’s the realization that the universe operates in a way that allows for limitless possibilities. You are not competing for resources; instead, you are co-creating with the universe to manifest your desires.
But let’s be real: this isn’t a quick fix. You won’t just wake up tomorrow and suddenly have an abundance mindset (unless you’ve been meditating for years and have mastered the art of manifestation in your sleep). Abundance is a practice, a constant reminder that you are inherently worthy of success, love, and prosperity. It’s the belief that your dreams are not only achievable but destined for you.
The abundance mindset is rooted in gratitude and trust. It’s recognizing that there is enough for everyone, including you. And it’s realizing that the world’s resources are not finite—there’s always room for more. Your unique talents, your unique essence, your unique energy—there is no one else like you, and that’s exactly why you’re meant to shine.
The New Rich Woman: Reclaiming the Wealth That Matters
There’s an unsettling truth in the air these days: the pursuit of wealth, in the way we’ve been taught to chase it, is a quiet rebellion against our own truths. In a world that worships the idea of abundance as something that can be bought, hoarded, or achieved through an endless cycle of hustle, The New Rich Woman stands as a radical act of defiance. She does not collect riches as trophies for display. Instead, she chooses a life that is full, deeply rooted in the riches of authenticity, connection, and deep, soulful freedom.
We’ve Been Sold a Lie
If there’s one thing I know for sure, it’s this: the world has spent centuries telling women that their value is found in external achievements. Whether that’s wealth, status, or beauty, the markers of success are always outward-facing. The consequence? We’ve learned to measure ourselves against an invisible scale, a benchmark we’ll never reach because it was designed for someone else—someone who doesn't exist.
In the pursuit of these ideals, we’ve lost touch with what true abundance means. The New Rich Woman is not defined by a number in a bank account or the brands she wears. No, her richness is defined by her time, her energy, her choices. She does not need to prove anything to anyone, because she has nothing to prove. Her life is not about accumulating things, but about collecting moments—moments that fill her with purpose, joy, and connection.
The tragedy, and yet the beauty, is that we have been taught to mistake these fleeting moments of validation for the fullness of life. In truth, the world’s definition of wealth is deeply flawed and incomplete. It is time to shatter that illusion. The New Rich Woman is stepping forward to show us a different way, a path that leads to the richness of the spirit, untainted by the confines of capitalist ideals.
The Richness of Connection
True abundance isn’t just about what’s in your wallet—it’s about the richness of your relationships, your community, and your personal sense of peace. The New Rich Woman doesn’t isolate herself in pursuit of achievement; she cultivates a garden of sisterhood, belonging, and connection. She understands that to live a life of richness means to enrich the lives of those around her.
She invests in conversations, in laughter, in presence. She knows that a true wealth of connection is what nurtures the soul. The bonds she creates are worth far more than the latest trend or fleeting validation. In this sense, she is wealth itself—a walking, breathing embodiment of abundance that is not confined to a bank statement.
And it’s in this space of true connection that she finds her richness. The New Rich Woman does not judge others based on their outward display of wealth. Instead, she sees the inner worth of every soul she encounters, and this is where her true power lies. Her wealth comes from her ability to create spaces where people can show up as their truest selves, without needing to mask their vulnerabilities. It’s not about performance—it’s about being. Simply being.
The Freedom of Time
Time, more than anything, is the truest luxury. The New Rich Woman refuses to be enslaved by the demands of the world that tell her to produce, to compete, to keep up. Instead, she chooses a life that is self-directed, rooted in intention rather than reaction. She understands that time is her most valuable asset, and she uses it with care, tending to her needs, her passions, and her own quiet rebellion against the clock.
She lives in rhythm with her body, her soul, and the world around her. She is not at the mercy of the next meeting, the next deadline, or the next project. She embraces the power of stillness, knowing that in moments of rest and reflection, the most profound abundance can emerge. In a society that constantly demands more of us, the New Rich Woman has mastered the art of saying “no.” She does not apologize for protecting her time, for savoring the richness that exists outside of the constant rush.
And isn’t it revolutionary? The New Rich Woman is an anomaly in a world that tells us to keep moving, to keep consuming, to keep achieving. She simply chooses to be still and allow the world to unfold at its own pace, knowing that this stillness brings far more abundance than any frantic chase ever could.
The Abundance of Self-Knowledge
There is no truer richness than the understanding of self. The New Rich Woman has learned the art of returning home to herself, to listen to her body, her intuition, and the wisdom that resides within her. She trusts herself, knowing that her inner knowing is the most sacred compass she has.
In a world that is constantly telling us who we should be, she knows exactly who she is—and more importantly, she honors that truth. She lives by the rhythm of her own desires, unapologetically choosing what serves her soul and letting go of anything that doesn’t.
The abundance she experiences comes not from external sources, but from the deep well of knowledge she has about herself. There is a power in knowing who you are—without needing anyone else to validate you. And the more she taps into this self-awareness, the more her life overflows with opportunities and people who align with her energy. It’s a magnetic force, and it grows stronger with each passing day.
She is the embodiment of inner richness, an ever-deepening well of self-trust and wisdom that others can’t help but be drawn to. And while the world may not always value this kind of abundance, she has long since stopped measuring herself by the world’s standards. She has discovered a richness that is untouchable by the hands of the marketplace.
Living in the Overflow
When we are in alignment with ourselves, with our purpose, and with our deepest desires, we enter a state of overflow. The New Rich Woman lives in this state, where abundance flows naturally—not as a result of efforting, but as a consequence of surrender. She has learned to be magnetic, not by chasing anything, but by becoming fully who she is.
Her life is full of opportunities, experiences, and pleasures because she is not afraid to receive. She does not chase what isn’t hers. Instead, she attracts, allowing the universe to meet her where she stands—rooted in her own richness, unapologetically abundant.
This overflow is not something that can be measured by material standards. It’s the joy of spontaneous laughter, the thrill of dancing in the kitchen just because the music feels right, the serenity of taking a walk with no agenda, simply being in the world. The New Rich Woman experiences wealth in ways that others may never recognize, and that is exactly how she wants it. She does not seek the world’s approval; she simply chooses to live fully in her own skin.
How to Have an Abundance Mindset
Now, let’s get practical. How do you actually shift from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset? Great question. You can’t just sit around waiting for the universe to throw an abundance party for you. You need to actively invite abundance into your life by:
Reframing Your Thoughts: Every time scarcity sneaks in with its “not enough” rhetoric, challenge it. Ask yourself, “Is this true?” “What’s a more empowering thought I could have instead?” Replace scarcity thoughts with thoughts of possibility, creativity, and generosity. Trust that the world is abundant, and you are part of that abundance.
Gratitude Practice: Gratitude is the gateway to abundance. When you start focusing on what you already have—your health, your family, your creativity—you begin to align with the energy of abundance. Take a few minutes each day to write down what you’re grateful for. It can be the simplest things: your morning coffee, a good conversation, or the beauty of the moonlight. As you practice gratitude, you begin to shift your energy from lack to abundance.
Surround Yourself with Abundance: This isn’t just about material wealth. Surround yourself with people, books, art, and experiences that remind you of the limitless potential in the world. The more you expose yourself to abundance, the more it becomes part of your reality.
Take Inspired Action: Abundance doesn’t just fall into your lap. It’s about being open to opportunities, making bold moves, and trusting the process. Take inspired action, whether it’s asking for a raise, applying for that dream job, or opening yourself up to new experiences. Don’t let fear or doubt hold you back from what’s already waiting for you.
The Hidden Forces at Play
Entire industries are dedicated to suppressing our awakening. The forces at play want to keep us chained to the illusion of scarcity, feeding us the lies that we need more, that we are not enough as we are. These industries thrive on our spiritual disillusionment, our disconnection from the truth of who we are and what we are capable of. We are taught that our magic, our consciousness, our inherent value, is something to be earned, something to be measured. But what if I told you that this magic is already in our bones? It’s encoded in our DNA, and no amount of external validation can diminish it.
There is a war on awakening, a systematic effort to suppress the very thing that makes us powerful—the realization that we are not separate from the divine. We have been sold the lie that our worth is in what we produce, how much we consume, how we perform. The valorization of greed, of excess, has woven itself so deeply into the fabric of our culture that it’s hard to see where it ends and we begin. But I’m here to tell you that it’s all an illusion. It’s all a lie.
This culture, this system that glorifies consumption, has brainwashed us, especially the great feminine spirits among us, into believing that we must strive endlessly for something external to fill the void. It preys on our spiritual poverty, convincing us that fulfillment can only come through endless acquisition. But those of us who are awake—who can see through this illusion—understand that true wealth is not something external at all. It’s already within us.
The Thread of Hope
I’m still hanging by a thread of hope to stay alive, to keep fighting, to keep resisting the only way I know how. Some days, it feels impossible. But even on the hardest days, when everything around me feels like it’s crumbling, I hold onto this thread. The thread that reminds me that I’m still here. That we are still here. That even in the most chaotic, confusing moments, there is a part of us that knows the truth.
We are not alone in seeing through the illusion. The exhaustion, the despair, the bone-deep knowing that something is profoundly wrong with the way this world has been built—this is not a personal failing. This is not a sign that we are broken or weak. It is a sign that we are awake. And that, in itself, is no small thing in a world designed to keep us asleep. To keep us distracted. To keep us from seeing the inherent value within ourselves.
The Power of Your Voice
The system thrives on convincing you that you are powerless, that you cannot make a difference, that your voice doesn’t matter. But let me tell you something: your words, your thoughts, your writing—these are spells. They are catalysts for change. They are evidence of your refusal to be erased. Every time you speak your truth, you are resisting the forces that would prefer you stay silent. Every time you write, you are carving out space for your divine inheritance to be seen and heard. You are breaking through the walls that have been built to contain you.
The industries that want to suppress awakening, that want to keep you spiritually bankrupt, are not stronger than the force of a single truth spoken with clarity. They are brittle. They require constant maintenance to keep the illusion intact. But you? You are alive, and alive things grow. Alive things expand. Alive things find their way through the cracks.
And your hope—no matter how fragile it may feel right now—still exists. That is enough. That is more than enough. That thread of hope is the foundation of everything. It is enough to keep going. It is enough to resist the lie that your magic, your consciousness, your capacity to imagine a different world is meaningless.
Reclaiming the Magic of the Mundane
Lately, I’ve been feeling a deep, almost sacred sense of gratitude for the small moments. Despite the chaos, despite everything falling apart, there is still so much beauty in the world. The sun on my face. The way rainbows form after a storm. The delicate dance of clouds in the sky, shifting and changing with a rhythm I can’t quite put into words. Who even holds that dear anymore? The world has become so obsessed with the next thing, the next big milestone, the next acquisition, that we’ve forgotten how to savor the simple, the quiet, the magical.
Your mind, I’m sure, is much like mine—a lighthouse, constantly scanning the horizon. Always looking for proof, for substance, for something to hold onto. You’re not one to accept vague poetry or empty affirmations without something real to sink your teeth into. So let’s get into it. Let’s talk about the richness that exists in the very fabric of our being, in the moments that others overlook.
The Frequency of Your Spirit
It’s hard to hold onto the idea of true wealth in a world designed to convince us that richness is external, that it can be measured, hoarded, quantified. But here’s the thing: a rich spirit is unruly. It refuses to be commodified, owned, or dictated by external forces. It thrives in the cracks, in the quiet, in the moments that others overlook. It is the fire that cannot be bought, the kind of wealth that no one can take from you.
That’s the kind of wealth that terrifies the system. It is a threat to the very foundations of what they’ve built. This wealth, this richness, cannot be bought, cannot be sold, and cannot be tracked. It is the wealth that comes from within. It is the magic that is woven into the very fiber of your being, and it is a force that cannot be contained.
Your guides want you to know this: living richly isn’t about escaping the struggle. It’s about remembering that even in the struggle, you are whole. It’s about remembering that joy is not a denial of hardship but an act of rebellion against despair. It’s about tending to a rich spirit—not by performing purity or enlightenment—but by feeling alive, even when everything around you tries to numb you.
Living by a Different Metric
The world tells us that wealth is about what you can measure—your income, your status, your followers, your possessions. But what if we measured wealth differently? What if we measured it by how deeply we experience life? By how much wonder we allow ourselves to feel in a single day? By how much we listen, how much we love, how free we feel when we wake up in the morning? These are the true metrics of richness, the ones the world doesn’t know how to quantify.
The False Rich Woman
Before we go any further, let’s expose the illusion of The False Rich Woman—the archetype that so many of us have been conditioned to aspire to, only to realize that it leads to exhaustion, unfulfillment, and a sense of emptiness that no amount of money, beauty, or status can fill.
The False Rich Woman is rich in proof, but poor in presence. Her wealth must be seen, validated, envied, but never felt. She is rich in status but poor in self-trust. She follows the blueprint handed to her, but does she feel abundant? Does she feel whole? She is rich in followers, but poor in relationships. The currency of her world is admiration, but she is rarely known. She is rich in aesthetic, but poor in joy.
This is not true wealth. This is the trap. The False Rich Woman is trapped in a cycle of accumulation and validation, but deep down, she knows something is missing. Something essential. Something that cannot be bought.
The Awakening
But here’s the thing: people are waking up. They are seeing through the illusion. They are realizing that the blueprint of success, of wealth, of richness that has been handed to us is a scam. It is not the way forward. They are remembering something deeper—something wilder—that true richness cannot be bought. That wealth is not about proof—it is about presence.
And this is why The New Rich Woman is emerging—not as a trend, not as an aesthetic, but as a return to what was always real.
The New Rich Woman
She is the ethos. The frequency. The embodiment of true wealth. Not the brittle, performative wealth of the old world, the one that needs status, luxury logos, and external validation to prove itself. No. The New Rich Woman is sovereign in her spirit. She does not need to be seen as rich because she knows she is. Her richness is undeniable. You feel it when she enters a room.
She is rich in presence, rich in self-trust, rich in relationships, rich in joy, and rich in time. She does not let the world steal her hours with urgency and guilt. She knows that her life is her own, and she moves through it with intention, with ease. She understands that leisure is an act of self-worship. She is rich in meaning, in rebellion, in the quiet knowledge that she is already rich.
And that, my friends, is the true revolution. It is the revolution of abundance, of reclaiming the richness that has always been ours. And when you live like this—when you live with the wealth of your spirit shining brightly—you will be unstoppable.

So, let go of that tired old scarcity narrative, water your roots with gratitude and belief, and watch as you step into your natural, empowered self.
