Tired of not earning what you are really worth? Tired of thinking you aren’t worth more than what you’re earning? Motivational speaker and author Barbara Stanny, whose book Secrets of Six-Figure Women helped shed light on the characteristics of successful earners, now promises to help you break through those fears, blocks and obstacles in Overcoming Underearning.
Her motivating five-step program includes plenty of exercises that bring deep insight into why you may be keeping yourself from really earning what you deserve, starting with all the reasons why you may not even think you deserve it in the first place. Using stories of everyday people Stanny has met in her workshops, she guides you through the inner and outer work necessary to understand why you are always selling yourself short - and not just when it comes to money.
From breaking through earning barriers to telling the truth about money and your self-esteem levels, to creating community and getting support, this book really digs deep to remove the subconscious stuff that plays over and over in your head and your life, and manifests in low pay, miserable employment, and general dissatisfaction with life and relationships.
Stanny is an inspiring writer, and she has plenty of knowledge to share, having interviewed some very successful women (this book is geared towards women, but men can benefit from the content, too) and identifying the key factors that made those women finally break free from the bondage of low self-worth to finally create the lives, and finances, they desired.
Overcoming Underearning is practical but also inspirational and combines psychology with common sense in the pursuit of finding financial freedom and satisfaction with life. Unless you think you’re worth it, it just won’t come to you.
