Seven years ago, we were living in a fifth-wheel rv because we couldnโt afford rent.
We had struggled financially for six years ever since we had been married.
I remember sitting in our 34 foot rv one morning with our 2 girls under 2 playing on the floor, while I sat crying trying to do the budget.
I felt completely hopeless because no matter how I crunched the numbers, there was still not enough.
Money felt stressful, heavy, and limited.
I knew deep down that I had to heal my poverty mindset...
but how could I do that when we were still deep in the trenches?
Slowly, God showed me lots of pieces through many different books, podcasts, and scripture that helped me understand the big picture...
the spiritual, emotional, and physical roots under a poverty mindset.
As I became safer with moneyโฆ my husband started making more money
Not because he was working more jobs...
But because something shifted internally.
We were able to afford a home that I never could have imagined as our first home.
And thenโฆ
As I continued healing my mindset around money and releasing the blocks in my body:
โพ๏ธ I went from making only 7k in a year
โพ๏ธ to 30k the next year
โพ๏ธ to 60k the year after
We were also able to receive a home on 40 acres worth over half a million dollars from the Lord, with joy instead of anxiety.
(He literally closed the doors on every more affordable property and opened only the door to this one... my mom calls it our miracle house and that is truly what it is.)
We would not have been able to say yes to purchasing it unless we had healed our identity and money stories.
We would have passed by our dream house that the Lord wanted to give us.
