I was introduced to Julie Murphy in 2019 and she has been instrumental in assisting me in healing from generational money wounds and moving into a life of abundance and optimism around money. In this episode of The Permission Slip, I converse with this powerhouse financial advisor and truth-teller who believes real wealth starts from within and knows. Julie shares how her journey through divorce, motherhood, and personal awakening helped her break free from the conditioning of both the financial industry and her Catholic upbringing. She talks candidly about the energetic blocks that keep people stuck in financial struggle—often rooted in fear, guilt, and shame—and how aligning money with authenticity, emotion, and soul purpose creates true abundance. This is money talk with a heart-centered twist.
We explore how the inner child influences financial decisions, why unprocessed emotions sabotage prosperity, and what it takes to live from a place of alignment instead of obligation. Julie offers grounded, no-nonsense wisdom about how to give yourself permission to stop performing, start receiving, and honor your unique path—even if it means disrupting everything you’ve built. Whether you're burned out, financially stuck, or yearning for more freedom, this episode is a call to stop "shoulding" all over yourself and start living from your truth.
