Are You Underearning? (Barbara Huson)

  • Episode #61

If you’re not earning what you need or desire, chances are you’re underearning. In this episode, packed with step-by-step advice, Barbara Huson explains resistance to our own earning potential and how to overcome it.

Barbara Huson is a best-selling author, financial therapist, teacher and wealth coach. She has helped millions of women take charge of their finances and their lives.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • What does it mean to be an underearner? Are you one?
  • How identifying your fears can help you succeed.
  • Three reasons why female entrepreneurs are often underearners.
  • Principles of neuroscience that can help you overcome underearning.
  • How we succumb to resistance that prevents us from moving forward.
  • The difference between overcoming resistance and pushing through.
  • Three steps to get smart about money.
  • Why money problems really have nothing to do with money.
  • Barbara’s three rules for creating wealth.
“We give away our skills or knowledge or experience for free or bargain prices. Because we don’t believe we’re worth more. There’s this little voice in our head that says, who do you think you are? No one’s going to pay that!”
