What a Prosperous Wise Woman Taught Me About Wealth

I spent the last week in Key West, hosted by a dear wise woman who is becoming family.
She is a good friend’s aunt, a creator of her reality, a multimillion-dollar business owner, and someone who embodies kindness, generosity, spiritual wisdom, and luxury.
Imagine the wise woman who lives in the woods…
But instead of being in a hut in the woods…
You walk through a gate down a short path covered in tropical plants to enter a gorgeous Key West property with a beautiful courtyard, saltwater pool, mansion, and a guest house you get to stay in.
The space alone is its own vortex of magical energy, ripening you to luxury, vitality, and prosperity.
I want to share about the power of being in the frequency of someone who is YEARS ahead of you in one specific area of expertise.
Entrepreneurship has called to me as the path of feminine awakening for a handful of years, yet it is something I haven’t spoken publicly about in very much detail.
Part of this, I realized, was that I had a limiting belief that I had to “master” this in order to speak about it.
Instead, I’m choosing to speak about it now. While I’m still in the process.
So that those who are also deep in the process, or even earlier on their journey, or perhaps further along the journey, may resonate in the field of feminine entrepreneurship.
I’ve spent the past couple years disentangling my beliefs around business, money, success, and prosperity.
For a good portion of this, I had entangled my beliefs around my mission, my impact, and my legacy with money, prosperity, and abundance.
But under the palms in Key West, across a table from a woman who built multimillion-dollar businesses, I learned these aren’t connected at all.
It’s really so much simpler than that.
It’s a crystal belief, fully held on its own, free of the judgments we place around it.
I desire prosperity, abundance, wealth.
Not to make an impact (although sure, that’s great too).
Not to do XYZ with it (although that can happen too).
But to desire it fully in the crystalline clarity of truth.
Which I knew…
But have you ever had someone tell you something with the frequency of lived experience?
That when you hear this transmission of wisdom,
it lands in your cells, in your being, in your mind…
Time stands still.
Goosebumps rise on my arms.
Energy moves through my body.
My vision shifts slightly as I gaze at her.
A moment that stands outside of space and time.
A moment when you know that your mind and body are permanently changing to a new paradigm.
A timeline shift.
Stories are powerful for the frequency they create in us.
The potential for energetic calibration that happens through storytelling.
The words matter, sure, but the inner awakening that happens through the storytelling is where the magic lives.
You see, this wise woman convinced a bank to give her a business loan before women were allowed to get loans without a male co-signer.
She had a bank account before 1974, when women could legally have a bank account in their own name without a male co-signer.
She had over 300 employees.
She paved the way for the path of feminine entrepreneurship to unfold.
She mastered the quantum energetics of creating her reality.
Before we had hashtags, trending phrases, or pop culture songs about manifestation… she was priming the field for us to walk.
She understood the two-piece factor:
Reality responds to embodied belief.
She visualized, created the belief in her mind, and took actions in her life to get her there.
For a long time, I entangled wealth with purpose.
I thought money had to be justified through impact.
Or mission.
Or service.
Which I feel many reading this are doing.
Entangling their wealth, their power, their mission, their impact.
But what I learned sitting across from her was this:
Those things are not actually connected.
Desire itself can be pure.
Clear.
Crystalline.
“I desire prosperity.”
Not because it proves anything.
Not because it makes me more spiritual.
Not because it makes me a better person.
But simply because desire itself is sacred.
And when we allow ourselves to fully claim our desires…
our body begins to reorganize around them.
So of course, if she could do it then I can too.
Of course, if I desire to live on an island one day, I can.
And I know, without a shadow of a doubt, that all of my desires will come true.
For I watched this wise elder, who shares many similar desires, create all of them.
I witnessed — just a tasting — of how her mission, impact, legacy, and generosity overflowed… not because she wanted to be wealthy, but as a natural overflow of prosperity to those around her.
I witnessed how even now, in her retirement, she is still making an impact.
For my life, my beliefs, and my field were shifted through her.
The wise woman awakened the potential of a dream within me then.
One rooted in integrity, personal energetic mastery, and devotion to allowing our desires to become beliefs.
One that is realized when we understand desires given to us by the Divine...not the ego...
and allow ourselves to desire them for the sacred act of union in co-creation with God.
This is the power of frequency in mentorship.
This is the calibration that happens when we are in the field of someone who knows what we are embodying.
We receive codes from them.
Sure, I give my clients tangible tools, just as this wise woman did.
But the deeper transformation happens through presence, through frequency, through being in someone's field.
This is what I pass along to my clients.
Embodied awareness of energetic mastery and somatic presence to calibrate to.
I pass along the path of deep self-love, devotion, and sacred union in partnership.
I pass along the capacity to reach altered states through your breath, your body, your being.
I create containers for women to calibrate to me — my lived wisdom of creating the life I desire.
Everything surrounding me, I have chosen, and would choose again.
I’m deeply grateful to be living a life I consciously chose.
