Highlights
- Joyce Marter explains how her own emotional money issues led her to her current profession.
- We talk about how psychologists often have money problems and how Joyce came to see that beliefs about her earning potential were holding her back.
- Do some people come to be psychologists with unreal expectations as to what they can achieve given who they are and how they present themselves?
- Joyce does a lot of personal work and believes that her business success is a direct result of that work.
- The field of psychology is now examining mindfulness. This is leading them away from the pathology of emotions to a more inner direction of awareness.
- Meditation and techniques such as yoga help us connect to our real essence.
- We all have to do our own work in order to find our individual solutions.
- Joyce recounts how reaching her breaking point financially taught her to ask for help and learn what she had to learn in order to become successful.
- We hold on to what’s familiar, even if it’s not working.
- Opening yourself to receive is not about receiving money, but about opening up to receiving love.
- If we work on ourselves, it doesn’t just affect our money but rather many aspects of our life.
