Let’s clear something up right now:
You’re not bad with money.
You’re not irresponsible.
You’re not behind.
You just weren’t taught.
Most of us—especially women, especially creatives, especially fitness pros—were never handed a guide to personal finance, let alone business finances.
We were taught how to do our jobs, hustle hard, and “make it work,” but no one handed us a spreadsheet and said,
“Hey, here’s how to figure out your take-home pay.”
So if you’ve ever felt:
-
A little nauseous logging into your bank account
-
Ashamed you don’t have a savings cushion
-
Embarrassed that your income is inconsistent
…you are 100% not alone.
Money is a Skill, Not a Character Trait
Managing your business finances is just that—a skill.
One you can learn & practice. One that gets easier over time.
The truth is, the folks you admire who “have it all together” with money either learned it or outsourced it.
There’s no secret gene or money IQ.
Just systems, support, and a few simple shifts.
A Few Easy Places to Start:
-
Open a separate business bank account.
Seriously. Stop running your biz from your personal checking account.
Even if you’re a sole proprietor, this one move makes everything cleaner and clearer. -
Start a weekly money check-in.
Pour a coffee, light a candle, look at your numbers.
You don’t have to spend hours on spreadsheets—just start paying attention. -
Track your actual take-home pay.
Don’t just “skim” money when you need it. Know what you can afford to pay yourself consistently by looking at your income, expenses, and taxes.
Remember: Money clarity builds confidence.
Confidence builds consistency.
Consistency is the the real flex.
