Episode 808: How To Be Good with Money & Program Your Body for Abundance with Kate Northrup

In this powerful bonus episode of The Mind Your Business Podcast, host James Wedmore welcomes long-time friend and money mindset expert Kate Northrup to explore the deep, often overlooked connection between emotional healing and financial success. Drawing from her personal journey of crisis, including her husband Mike's severe illness and her own financial avoidance, Kate reveals how she rewired her nervous system through a 90-day experiment of intentional stillness—laying on the couch, watching TV, and releasing pent-up stress. This shift allowed her to break free from the cycle of financial dysregulation, where either avoidance (hypo) or obsessive control (hyper) prevent true abundance. She emphasizes that money healing is not about making more money, but about cultivating inner safety, which unlocks clarity, creativity, and sustainable growth. The episode dismantles the myth that wealth equals happiness, showing instead that true abundance comes from emotional alignment, self-worth, and loving one's financial reality. James and Kate stress that until entrepreneurs heal their money trauma, even the most brilliant strategies will fall on deaf ears.
