Episode 14: The link between Vows of Invisibility, not Good Enough and Vows of Loyalty
This week for the #MoneyMagic series, I decided to a live class on how I was brought up to inky trust family and how that fed into my need for invisibility and affected my income.
Growing up I was taught to never share anything that was in my zone of genius, with people outside the family because they would bewitch me and try to take my gifts and kill me.
I was taught to hide any cool idea I had or cool thing I could do out of fear and only trust family to help me implement it because at least they wouldn't harm me.
So you can imagine how unsafe it feels for my mom to watch me do this work and be so visible.
My money journey has really been triggering to her.
VOWS OF INVISIBILITY & VOWS OF LOYALTY - HOW THEY HOLD US BACK
I was also taught to stay safe by hiring family to work in my business or help me implement ideas, because...witchcraft.
I saw my mom and uncle come up with insanely awesome business ideas, and out of fear they would fight with family members and force them to get involved in their business ventures and they would hire family cos they didn't want others to know about the idea or how the business was run etc.
There would be so many fights because some people were not doing the work and were refusing to come on board or were doing half jobs and the businesses would fail.
My mom and uncle were the ones with the vision and they expected everyone else to have the same vision and if they didn't, they forced the vision onto them so everyone could grow together and also it felt safer to them than working with outsiders.
What that meant is that their brilliance and awesomeness were the best-kept secret and it was hard for them to grow beyond a certain point and sell their products and services.
Because to sell our products and services, people have you know we exist and we actually have said gift/product/service.
