Welcome to one of the most elusive steps of the 7 Steps to Wealth framework: Ask.

This step is life changing, because when you embody the Ask step, it means you embody the expectation that you will reach financial freedom.

That said, this step is also especially difficult for women. I’m going to explain why that is–and what you can do to overcome that obstacle–because mastering the practice of asking is essential if you want to build meaningful wealth.

In just 28 minutes, we’re going to explore the importance of identifying what you really want in your life, dig into what gets in the way of asking for what you want–and, you’ll be challenged to ask for more, with very specific examples and action steps to help you get started.

I’ll share stories about people who absolutely changed their lives by asking, like a client who doubled her salary, a friend who got a full ride to medical school, and some women who wanted to pay for Taylor Swift tickets and ended up landing completely new jobs. (They’re my co-VPs of marketing now! 👯)

But this isn’t just about getting what you want. The Ask step is really taking on the view of, the desire for, and the commitment to more. It’s adopting the mindset and behaviors that make asking for things come naturally to you–because the more you ask, the more you will receive… and that’s abundance, baby!

So, what can you ask for that would help you generate more wealth, more income, more investments, more free time, more happiness, more financial comfort, and help you build the life of your dreams?

Because, Money Lover, this is YOUR life. It's your money, your plan, and your future that's on the line–and I promise you no one else cares more about your money than you do.

The world is full of asks. Join the party! 🎉
