I had the loveliest call with a gifted photographer the other day. Her work is stunning. We clicked immediately. I could already see us working together!

At the end of the call, I said, “I had the BEST time chatting with you! Can you send me your price list?”

She hesitated. It was for a second, but I caught it. “Oh, yes! Of course. I’ll get that to you right away.”

That was a while back and I haven’t seen the list yet. I’m not judging. I’ve been exactly where she is.

I’ve been the one who “forgot” to follow up with a perfect client. The one whose hand shook over the keyboard when it was time to share my prices.

So I can guess what was happening for her. She was unknowingly blocking her own abundance because somewhere deep inside, she couldn’t allow herself to have it.

Here’s the thing I’ve learned (often the hard way): The Universe won’t override what you believe about yourself.

If somewhere deep down, you believe you’re not worth what you’re asking… or that receiving money feels unsafe or uncomfortable… or that being visible with your prices makes you vulnerable…

The Universe honors that. It will never force abundance on you.  It simply waits until you feel safe enough to receive it.

So what do you do if you notice yourself repelling abundance? 

When you catch yourself “forgetting” to send the invoice, or “not getting around” to following up, or finding excuses not to show up for the very thing you said you wanted?

Here’s what’s helped me:

1. Observe without judgment
   “Oh, interesting. I’m blocking abundance right now.” No shame. Just simple, clean awareness.
2. Take 1 Healing Breath
   Hands over heart. Breathe in for 3, out for 6. Ask: “What feeling or healing do I need right now?” Maybe it’s 1 Healing Breath of Safety or Worthiness or Peace.
3. Get curious
   “What am I afraid will happen if I receive this?” The answers that come up are often surprising and illuminating.

I hope that photographer finds her way to feeling safe enough to receive the abundance she’s clearly talented enough to create.

My invitation to you this week: If you recognize that hesitation, that tightness, that “I’ll do it later” try those 3 steps above and be gentle with yourself 💖 This is deep work.

And when you’re ready, ask yourself one more question: what would it feel like to receive without resistance?

The answer is worth discovering.
