But what are some of the money stories that you see people speaking to you about or the people that you coach and work with? Because I think it'd be helpful for our audience to really think about in their heads what their money story could be.

I mean, one of the most powerful things is if we want to know where we're at with money, just look at where you're at with money.

Like, so I don't know, I haven't touched on this yet, but something that is so powerful to speak about when we talk about money is the subconscious mind.

And in my 20s, when I was getting to know the concept of prosperity and really wanting to have a better relationship with money, I started reading these books and they're talking about the subconscious.

And I was like, what is that? What's that all about? And the power of the subconscious, so we're essentially functioning every day for about 10% conscious mind.

But there's a 90%, like let's say like mental processing capacity that's going on.

It's sub, it's under our conscious awareness.

i wonder if you could get to the story by saying like so why don't you have as much money as you want and then someone would be like well i it's not made for me you know what i mean i wonder if there's just like that clear question of why don't you have the money that you would like to have

You can really set the stage for everything we're going to get into today because I know you've had a deep one here.

Oh yeah, I've had a Phoenix-like couple of years.

So, well, thank you so much for having me, babe.

It is, I feel so honored to be here and just a little bit about me.

I'm actually ironically from Phoenix, Arizona and I love that my soul was like, let's do a little irony and like incarnate into a city called Phoenix because I feel like I have had a very Phoenix-like and highly transformative journey here.

I literally have become a 180 degree different person.

I'm sure many of us can relate to that.

Yes.

Yes

... masculine presences in my life- Basically back to back.

Mm-hmm.

And I feel like that was just God being like, "I just wanna show you number one." And the funny thing is, is neither one of them...

My dad and I definitely got it together towards the end.

And fortunately, me and my ex are still friends, and we've been able to go through a- Mm-hmm ... like, I'd say 9.5 out of 10 amicable divorce, which is, like, a gift.

That is a gift.

Yeah

We start every show off with a question from our Mastery card deck, and your question today is, "When are you seductive as a defense mechanism?"

[laughs] Oh my God.

Okay.

Let me just drop in and answer that from a really real place.

I feel very called out by that question.

I would say my journey with the masculine and men is it's been, it's been one of the hardest and most formative experiences of my life, ever since I was really, really young.

And I think I've learned over time that seduction or using my sensuality or using my beauty or using my attractiveness is like a, a default mode mechanism-

Absolutely.

Tell everyone about you and your incredible work in this world.

Yes.

Oh, thank you, my angel.

So very simply, my name is Natalia Benson.

I live in Southern California.

I have been a money teacher for quite a few years now, maybe going on six years.

This was never the plan.

Yeah.

Mm.

"I'm opening," you know, whatever.

The accounts that I needed to give myself those buckets, so to speak, so I could allocate.

But when I looked at my bank balance, I was like, "I have about, you know, 150 bucks in here." And they were like, "We will only open these accounts for you if you can supply at least $100 minimum."In each account.

And I was like...

And they're like, "You have 24 hours." So I open my computer, and I was like, "Okay, I'm done being broke.

I'm done doing this.

Mm.
