Why your nervous system blocks abundance + how to rewire your capacity for MORE

What would you do if someone offered to fund your dream business? You probably imagine you'd say hell yes, jump at the chance, maybe even cry tears of gratitude.

But in my experience working with thousands of visionaries and entrepreneurs, plus my own grave mistake, I've learned that our nervous systems often have very different plans.

Before I understood this pattern, I was sitting across from a literal multimillionaire who had built multiple successful companies. She looked me in the eye with complete conviction and said the words every struggling entrepreneur dreams of hearing:

"I believe in you. If you need anything to get your business started, I'll invest in it. Just ask."

A literal BLANK CHECK. For my dream business. From someone who clearly knew how to create wealth.

But what did I do?
I smiled politely, thanked her, and walked away.

For years, I convinced myself it was because I wanted to be "independent." 

But the truth is my body literally couldn't handle receiving that much abundance.

And if you're here reading this, wondering why your own success feels hard to reach or hold onto, there's a good chance your nervous system is doing the exact same thing to you.

Why Your Body Blocks Abundance (Even When You Want It)

When she made that generous offer, something inside me completely shut down. It wasn't a conscious choice…my nervous system literally took over. I felt myself disconnecting from my body while every cell was screaming "DANGER."

Because at the time, my system was still completely wired for struggle. I was familiar with barely getting by, with money being this scarce thing you had to fight for.

When this unexpected abundance showed up—easy, generous, freely offered—my body registered it as foreign territory. I simply didn't have the neural wiring to receive that much support.

Here's the thing:
Your nervous system doesn't understand business goals or vision boards. It understands survival, safety, and belonging. And if receiving more money, visibility, or success threatens any of those core needs in your system, it will find creative ways to slow things down.

This is why you might find yourself…
- getting sick right before a big launch
- losing your voice on the day you planned to record a video
- suddenly facing family drama right when things start taking off
- feeling exhausted on the exact day you were going to write marketing copy

This is your nervous system doing exactly what it was designed to do…
keep you safe based on everything you've learned about survival up to this point.

Why You Self-Sabotage Right Before Success

After supporting over 2,000 people through breaking patterns of limitation, I've seen this same dynamic everywhere:

• The spiritual entrepreneur who desperately wants visibility, then gets invited to a major podcast and mysteriously loses their voice
• The coach who craves more clients, then “forgets” to follow up with hot leads
• The healer who says they want success, then suddenly family drama shows up right when things start taking off.

The bigger the opportunity, the more "dangerous" it feels to a nervous system that's still calibrated for struggle.

So the closer you get to your actual dreams, the louder these protective patterns become. 

The Abundance Block That Keeps Spiritual Entrepreneurs Stuck

If you're here to do sacred work in the world, your soul is calling you to bring in something far bigger than your conditioning prepared you for.

You 're here to change paradigms and create impact at a level that your family lineage never experienced. So OF COURSE that 's going to feel foreign to your nervous system.

The question isn't whether abundance "blocks" exist… it 's whether you're willing to upgrade your capacity to hold the magnitude of your mission and fully receive the abundance required. 

In my latest YouTube video, I share:

✅ The real reason self-sabotage shows up right when success arrives
