I loved her thoughts about how people, especially women, tend to “play small” and “don’t ask for their value.” Those are definitely traits I see in myself and I would love to read more advice from her on how to overcome that. I think that influences people’s anxiety about budgets too, because people feel like they shouldn’t spend any money on themselves at all, or they do it recklessly and impulsively. But if you build up your confidence, you can a) increase your income and b) set a budget and spend money on yourself freely and confidently within that budget. I’d love to do both those things, but somehow I can never get myself to actually do it!
