When I talk about overcoming money fear, I’m really talking about the inner shift that lets you see what’s already available to you. Fear narrows your field of vision. It makes options look invisible and turns small problems into impossible ones. I’ve learned that the fastest way to steady the mind is to reach for gratitude—not as a fluffy practice, but as a deliberate move that changes state quickly.
When tension rises, I pause and list ten things I’m genuinely grateful for. It interrupts the panic and reconnects me to a sense of supply. The moment gratitude opens up space inside, ideas begin to land more clearly. It doesn’t fix the situation on its own, but it makes me capable of meeting it.
From there, assumption becomes the next step. I assume the good is near, and I carry a pad so I don’t miss the ideas or opportunities that show up. Most people overlook this, but it’s often how answers arrive—quiet, simple, and easy to ignore if you’re not listening.
Fear often hides a layer of shame, and that shame wants you to freeze. When I release the shame, calm action returns. I don’t rush. I don’t force. I simply move with the next honest step. And every time I do, something opens that I couldn’t see before.
In February, I’m bringing together a group of driven entrepreneurs for a 2-day business intensive where we strip away the fear, resistance, and patterns that quietly cap your growth, and get you clear on your next breakthrough.
Together, we’ll uncover what’s been holding you back, claim the freedom you’ve been chasing, and walk away with the clarity and courage to lead your business — and your life — on your terms.
And because business growth isn’t just about mindset, Steph Tuss is teaching a special marketing session on the latest business-building tactics that are working now. She’ll also answer your most pressing marketing questions.
