The Truth About Money, Fear, and Control in Business with Kate Northrup

The Truth About Money, Fear, and Control in Business with Kate Northrup

Author: Julie Solomon April 1, 2026 Duration: 54:54
In this episode, I’m diving into a layered and honest conversation around money, healing, and what it really takes to lead and launch from a place of alignment. I share how our relationship with money is often rooted in deeper emotional patterns—fear, control, trust—and how those patterns can quietly shape the way we make decisions in our business. From navigating big financial choices to recognizing where we’re operating from old conditioning, this conversation invites you to look beyond the surface and into the meaning behind your habits. I also explore what it looks like to shift out of reactive patterns and into more grounded, intentional leadership—especially when it comes to launching and scaling. This is about learning to pause, trust yourself, and make clean decisions that support long-term growth rather than short-term urgency. If you’ve ever felt the tension between going all in and holding back, or questioned your next move financially or strategically, this episode will help you approach both money and business from a place of clarity, integrity, and self-trust.
