Your Bank Account Has Grown, But Your Body Hasn't Caught Up","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":1111,"description":"What happens when your bank account grows, your financial goals are within reach, and you're making more money than ever—but you still don't feel safe, secure, or abundant?\nIn this episode, Kate explores why your body doesn't always catch up to your financial success. You might have more savings, higher income, or even reached your financial independence number, yet still find yourself checking your accounts constantly, avoiding certain expenses, or feeling anxious about money. Kate explains why these patterns aren't necessarily about how much you have, but about what your body has learned to associate with financial safety.\nKate shares a deeply personal moment from 2021, when Mike was seriously ill and she was carrying immense financial and emotional pressure. During a therapy session, she was asked to imagine Mike coming home with $10 million and telling her she no longer needed to work. Instead of feeling relieved, she felt completely empty. That unexpected reaction revealed how deeply her sense of aliveness had become tied to stress, achievement, and financial pressure.\nThrough the metaphor of two garden beds—one depleted and one rich with nutrients—Kate explains why adding more money to your life doesn't automatically create a greater sense of abundance. She introduces the idea of your nervous system as the soil in which financial growth takes root, and shares a simple 60-second practice to help you become more present with the abundance that's already here, without trying to change or fix how you feel.\n“Your nervous system is the soil. Money or opportunities or any kind of abundance are the seeds.”   -  Kate Northrup\n🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤\n00:00 Why More Money Isn't Enough\n00:46 When Your Body Hasn't Caught Up\n02:17 Signs of Financial Hypervigilance\n03:21 Hidden Spending and Money Shame\n05:29 Kate's Personal Money Story\n05:59 The $10 Million Therapy Exercise\n07:54 Your Money Nervous System Thermostat\n09:21 The Garden Bed Metaphor\n12:14...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/o03JRta_QRrWYpVnGEniH9ofqOD9uyABk7kkXvT0B_E/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQ1MzMzLzE2OTUz/ODkwNzQtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
