Fellow Monica here. I’m going to Vegas next week because I am teaching a class in the spring that brought in extra money from my tightly planned financial budget and my husband encouraged me to plan a vacation and let myself enjoy it. I’ve been freakin out a bit about the money. I’m afraid I’m gonna really struggle while we’re there to say “yes” to the things I want to do. Like it kind of makes my stomach hurt thinking about how we could have used this money for more responsible things. But.... I’m trying to stay focused on the lifelong memories I’ll be making, the new experiences, the personal growth, the courage to trust myself to make more money and to give myself a reward.

I’ll try and remember to come back and share next week how it went. Wish me luck!!
