Money and the Mother Course
What is the Money – Mother Connection?
Our relationship to our mother teaches us the most important meanings about our own worth, receiving, permission, deserving, and lovability — and what’s possible for us to have and achieve. The way we were nurtured, protected, and loved converts into our money attachment style: anxious, avoidant, disorganized, or secure.
If you have not been able to generate, accumulate, and enjoy money at your full potential, there is likely an unhealed mother wound at the root.
Through our mother’s capacity to give to herself and give to us, we learn: – How much money we have permission to desire and have – Whether money is our friend or our adversary – To receive love, compliments, attention, gifts and money with an open heart — or to repel them with false humility – Our sense of deservedness when it comes to making, keeping, and enjoying money.
Through our mother’s capacity to give to herself and give to us we learn:
- How much money we have permission to desire and have
- Whether money is our friend or our adversary
- To receive love, compliments, attention, gifts and money with an open heart, or to repel them with false humility
- To allow money and beauty to penetrate our life, or to keep them out
- Our sense of deservedness when it comes to making, keeping and enjoying money.
My Money Story
I had a very restrictive mother. Her response to every desire was “no.” I internalized her rigidity to mean I did not deserve anything.
As a young adult, I began shopping to feel loved — buying something beautiful, whether I could afford it or not, made me feel nurtured in ways I never experienced with her. As my debt grew, so did my shame. I tried to heal my relationship to money with practical tips, but nothing was sustainable.
Until I had a profound breakthrough.
Once I understood the mother-wound at the source of my dysfunctional relationship to money, I had an experience of profound self-forgiveness. The next time I felt like purchasing something beyond my means, I heard the words “I’m enough” arise from deep within myself — and my desire for an object inverted into feelings of deep internal comfort and nurturance.
My own love was what I was seeking.
When I opened my heart to myself, money became available to me. This was the first of a multilayered breakthrough process that led to the thriving business I have today.
