Money Files: Wealth Over Now Keina Newell

In 2024, I want to help you earn more money! Today, I am joined by Leigha May to continue the conversation about under-earning. Leigha is a career and executive leadership coach who helps her clients get the pay they deserve. 



Leigha shares everything you need to know about under-asking. We discuss the tendency to under-ask based on limiting beliefs shaped by our upbringings and societal influences. We also talk about the importance of seeing your paycheck as a business transaction, focusing on the value you bring to the organization rather than personal worth.



Then, we tackle practical strategies for negotiating salary increases and confidently advocating for yourself. Whether you want a pay bump in a current role or are actively searching for a new job, Leigha's invaluable insights will help you earn more money!

In today's episode, I continue the conversation about under-earning. Money is a tool that can get you anywhere you desire to be, so regardless of your current position or financial status, I want you to make more money!



I guide you through a series of exercises to help cultivate a six-figure mindset based on achieving your dream salary. This concept isn't about making more money for the sake of making more money. Building a six-figure mindset is about establishing goals, exploring possibilities, and confirming the belief that your earning potential is limitless. By clearly outlining your vision for the future and reaffirming a positive financial mindset, no goal is too big.



Whether you've just landed a promotion or are currently at your highest income level, this episode is for you!

[05:20] Reflecting on the past and imagining the future

Overcoming Underearning(R): A Five-Step Plan to a Richer Life

Welcome to the first episode of my new series about underearning! I will not allow you to make less than your worth. Let's make a goal for 2024 to leverage earning potential and get the salary your experience, expertise, and knowledge demands. 



The root cause of under-earning is a mindset block. You aren't earning more because you aren't asking for more. But breaking free from under-earning isn't just about asking for a raise. It's about confronting the fears that hold us back, like the fear of hearing "no." Rejection is part of the journey but also a stepping stone towards growth. Surrounding yourself with people who uplift and support your financial goals and building a financial safety net will also give you the confidence to ask for a raise.



Throughout this series, I'll dive deeper into each aspect of under-earning and how to overcome it. It's time to stop settling and start making the money you deserve!

In this week's Financial Spring Cleaning series episode, I challenge you to reflect on the first 90 days of 2024. It's unbelievable how quickly time flies, and it is so important to take a step back to evaluate our financial progress, goals, and habits.

Reflecting on what has worked well in the past quarter allows us to celebrate our progress and identify areas of growth. Acknowledging our achievements, whether it's consistently saving money, paying off debt, or investing wisely, is essential. Conversely, recognizing what didn't work allows for honest self-assessment and the opportunity to course-correct. In addition to reflecting on Q1, it's time to refresh intentions and goals so we can continue to foster positive money habits.

By envisioning where we want to be in the future, whether it's April 2025 or the next six months, we can chart a clear path toward financial success. My goal is to empower you to take control of your finances so you can spend drama-free and confidently pursue your dreams!

Tune in for insights on these topics:


[02:10] Write out financial goals and intentions


[05:45] Audit Q1 - what is going well?


[07:51] What didn’t work in Q1?


[09:00] What do you want to do differently?



Tune into this episode of Money Files to learn how to do a 90-day financial reflection and stay on track to hit your money goals in 2024!
