In today’s show I got to have a really cool conversation. We talked about something that everyone thinks about, but no one really wants to talk about, and that is money. Money is an issue, and whether we like it or not, we all hold beliefs around money. Some of us believe that money is a bad thing, that it is evil. Others have evolved to a place where they allow money to flow into their lives freely and easily. We hear about these people; they are like myths, like mermaids. It’s rare to get to sit down with one and really understand what that mindset looks like in real life, but that’s what I did today.
Today I sat down with David Binns. David is a real estate agent by background and training, and a contributor to the self-improvement movement. We looked at the concept of money mindset, and learned how to transition our way of thinking to allowing money to flow toward us. The conversation was insightful. It gave me goosebumps throughout, and it was really foundational to addressing a concept that I believe is important to everybody’s health; financial freedom. This conversation is a gateway to the liberation that comes from looking at money in a whole new way.
