Your Money Story was written by age 7! 

Most people don’t realize this…

By the time you turned seven, your relationship with money was already formed.

Crazy right?

You weren’t learning about investing or credit.

You were learning through feelings.

Tension. Silence. Guilt. Stress.

Your nervous system was picking up on every conversation, argument, or moment money caused a shift in the room.

You didn’t need words, your body felt what money meant.

And you believed it.

Without question.

These moments? We call them financial flashpoints.

They’re powerful. Emotional.

And they shaped the way you handle money to this day.

What’s a Financial Flashpoint?

A financial flashpoint is a charged moment in childhood that left a mark.

It might’ve been:

• Your parents arguing over bills

• Your mom crying over a bounced check

• Being told “we can’t afford that”

• Feeling guilt for asking for something small

• Being praised for saving… or shamed for spending

These experiences didn’t just happen.

They taught you something.

Something that stuck.

Things like:

• “Money causes problems.”

• “I have to work hard for every dollar.”

• “We’re not the kind of people who have that.”

• “If I want more, I’m greedy.”

You didn’t choose those beliefs. But your subconscious locked them in as truth.

Even one moment, if emotionally intense enough, can imprint a pattern that plays out for decades.

 Why This All Happens Before You’re Even 7

Your brain before age 7 is in theta state, like hypnosis.

You’re absorbing everything.

No filter.

No logic.

No questions.

So when money caused stress in the house — even unspoken stress —

your body logged that as:

“Money = danger”

“Success = separation”

“More = never enough”

And now?

Most adults are still living by that script:

• Overworking

• Overspending

• Under-saving

• Avoiding money altogether

Not because they’re bad with money,  but because they’re stuck in a story they didn’t write.

You think you’re making money decisions today.

But really, you’re responding to a script from childhood.

Your Original Money Story Is Running the Show

Your money story is the emotional blueprint behind your financial decisions.

Ever said things like:

• “I just can’t hold onto money.”

• “I always feel broke.”

• “I’m not good with numbers.”

Those are not truths.

That’s programming.

Until you name the story, it keeps calling the shots and silently shaping what is possible for you:

• How much you let yourself earn

• How you feel when you spend

• Whether you let money feel safe

• Whether you sabotage growth just as it’s starting to happen

You can’t change what you’re not aware of.

But once you see the story, you’re no longer controlled by it.

 Awareness Changes Everything

The minute someone spots a financial flashpoint, something clicks.

I love seeing that light go on:

“Oh. I’m not bad with money… I’m reacting to something that felt unsafe when I was six.”

That’s where the healing begins.

You stop repeating.

You stop shaming.

You start choosing.

From there? We rebuild.

Not just budgets and numbers but with beliefs.

Ones that align with who you’re becoming, not who you were taught to be.

You’re Allowed to Rewrite the Script

You didn’t ask for the story you were handed.

But you don’t have to keep living it.

Ask yourself:

• What moments from childhood shaped how I feel about money?

• What did I make them mean?

• Are those meanings still serving me?

If not, this is your invitation to let them go. 

You’re not broken.

You’re just patterned.

And patterns can be rewritten.
