I met Kathy Poss a few years ago at local business networking luncheons. I admit, being a financial coach she fit right in with other business and professionals, I always feel out of place as a professional "witch".
When she was highlighted at a Business in Bloom, she did some abundance belief exercises with us and it clicked! Kathy wasn't just crunching numbers and analyzing data. She was talking about Energy! She was just as much a Witch and Healer as me, she just didn't know it.
In the latest episode of Practically Magick we explore a fascinating intersection between financial wellness and the world of magic. Kathy Poss, a financial wellness and budget coach focused on empowering solo women in wealth. Together, we delve into the connections between emotional healing, financial success, and the importance of aligning one's inner frequency with goals of prosperity.
Creating a Magical Connection with Money The episode begins with a discussion about the common misconceptions around financial and spiritual practices, highlighting surprising overlaps between these seemingly disparate worlds. We started the episode by using a deck by Kristoffer Hughes to pull a card and draw insights about abundance – a theme deeply entwined with both financial and spiritual success.
The Importance of Unblocking Scarcity Beliefs Kathy emphasizes the role of belief systems in achieving financial independence. She explains how these beliefs, often formed in childhood, can block our ability to manifest wealth and prosperity. We illustrate that understanding and reshaping these beliefs is crucial to not just mental health, but also financial success.
Practical and Mystical Tips for Financial Wellness I introduce a unique money spell, sharing how specific colors and herbs can be used in practical magic rituals to draw abundance. While grounded in traditional folk witchcraft, the spell's effectiveness hinges on the practitioner's belief in its power, reinforcing the psychological aspect behind these rituals. To see more Money Spells, see Resources below. Kathy complements this by offering practical financial advice through her 30-day financial wellness bootcamp, emphasizing the importance of coaching and accountability.
Embracing Both Mystical and Practical Approaches The conversation further explores how combining mystical practices with practical financial strategies creates a holistic approach to wellness. Kathy shares insights from her experience as a CPA and coach, discussing how different habits and attitudes – or "habitudes" – can influence financial behavior. Both emphasize the necessity of aligning these aspects to live a life of joy, not fear or scarcity.
Conclusion: Bridging Wellness and Wealth Our discussion underscores the significant overlaps between financial wellness and spiritual healing. They advocate for a holistic approach, suggesting that integrating both practical and mystical methods can lead to a more balanced and prosperous life. By understanding and nurturing both our tangible and intangible resources, we can aim to achieve not just wealth, but a truly fulfilling life.
