Read MoreWe can’t talk about how to celebrate others without admitting the dark side of why this is such a challenge… Jealousy. Ew! No one wants to admit that they struggle with jealousy, do they?

You know what I mean, don’t you?! "What if my idea doesn’t make sense to them?" "What if they think it's boring or cliché? What if they don’t think I’m capable of pursuing my dream to completion?" Or, even, "What if they steal my idea?" I share how to be proactive at overcoming these hurdles in today's episode!

Eventually, I was able to dismiss those negative thoughts quite quickly. I share that journey in today's episode!

Read MoreFinancial strategy and success start with knowing what you want and why you want it, Nechelle says.

What will change by attaining the given items, experiences or wealth? It seems, the better you can answer questions about what’s motivating your financial goals, the better your relationship with money will be.
